My husband and I stayed for 5 nights at Sail Away Cottages and we were completely blown away! Karen and John have an incredible (and I mean incredible) property. We stayed in the Sail Loft 'Starboard' cottage and it was wonderful, clean and my husband practically lived in the pool! There was so much to do within steps away from where we stayed. The pool, our own barbecue, the canal with kayaks, paddle boards and the beach where we snorkelled and saw so many sea turtles! You can even walk along the beach and have lunch/dinner at the Conch Shack, which we did a few times (see the photo I've included for how lovely that is)! They've got the cutest pups, Skipper and Soldier who will come by to say hello if you're into that. All in all, this was one of my favourite trips we have ever taken and we can't thank Karen and John enough for being such incredible hosts and sharing their amazing property!

Great accommodations and hosts. Centrally located but still off the beaten path so it's nice and quiet. You have to take the kayaks or paddleboards on the canal. We've never seen so many sea turtles before. Really great experience and we look forward to staying here on our next trip to TCI.
