The property is absolutely amazing. We were greeted by both Chungmo and Gembo.
When getting there, there’s no signage it’s on the right on Queen’s Highway before you get to Daddy Joes. Look for 2 white rocks by the drive- they should paint a palm tree on the rock.
They have fresh coconuts available all the time. Gembo will have them in the fridge at the pool, but he will also bring them to you at the beach.
The water is so clear and calm. You can kayak or snorkel around the rocks to see fish and sea life. We even saw an octopus at the rocks by the pool.
We spent more time at the larger beach, and there are other properies at the other end but they rarely walk down.
House was as described but the kitchen is downstairs - you have to go outside to get to the kitchen. Was totally ok for us but someone might want to know that. There’s no washer dryer in the home but I’m sure Gembo would have washed anything if we needed.
There’s a Nespresso coffee maker with the purple pods (if you like a different kind bring them) and a pot that you could boil ground coffee for a pot of coffee.
Fully stocked kitchen including vitamix blender and toaster etc.
Order groceries ahead of time, we tried going to 2 different stores and nothing was fresh and hard to find simple things like ritz or produce. We also had a hard time with restaurants. Daddy joes is super close but it was hit or miss, the fish tasted fishy, the shrimp quesadilla was good the first time, second time it wasn’t shrimp. Burger was mushy- don’t try it. The glass window bar and grill we waited 30 min after ordering and still didn’t have our drinks so we left. The cove restaurant was amazing - sushi, lobster and grouper were perfect. Tried to get a chef but they cancelled on us twice. The staff did tell us GWV is adding a restaurant and a bar so that will be a great addition.
Queens bath is nearby. But not much else. We spent a day over on Harbour Island, which we’ve stayed at before. It has a lot more options for good food but much more crowded and the water is not nearly as clear as GWV. Worth the day trip though.
We can’t wait to go back! We want to bring friends or the kids and stay in one of the larger houses. The pictures on the website and VRBO don’t do it justice. It’s seriously way better in person. A local told us this is their favorite beach on the island if that tells you anything. Gembo could not be more accommodating and kind.
