Coconut Cottage October 2024
The house is nice. It has a brand new full size washer/dryer. The view of the reef is spectacular. We enjoyed the pool. The bedroom downstairs stayed nice and cool with the a/c at night. We appreciated the extra water bottles and the water cooler. The shower was fine and the water pressure was good.
The safe under the upstairs sink was inoperable as the key was completely twisted and bent.
In order to fully enjoy the island, you will need a rental car. Obviously, we were being watched and our movements followed. I made the mistake of leaving a window unlocked and we were robbed. The neighborhood is not nice.
They stole approximately $2000 worth of electronics (iPad, GoPro camera, Bose headphones, earbuds and Soundlink box). They stole my wife’s backpack altogether and went through mine and stole my fleece jacket but they left my backpack. Our passports were in my backpack so we were relieved. The refrigerator door was wide open when we returned home but they didn’t take my beer or rum. They didn’t take my expensive binoculars or my extra cash in a dresser drawer.
We will never know how many times they entered the yard and tried to get in while we were away from the house because the “security” cameras do not have recording functionality.
Up until this incident, we really enjoyed the island and Coconut Cottage. Now, I don’t think we would ever return.😡
