Simplicity

First and foremost, it was a joy booking this property. Cathy was so incredibly responsive and hospitable. Made it so enjoyable to book and in preparation. Bill called to check on us while we were there. Daisy and Debbie (local housekeepers) were wonderful to check in on us and take care of whatever we needed from them.

And the property....a piece of paradise. We were there right after Hurricane Joaquin had come though so beach was still in process of coming back but was still beautiful. Our evening meals on the back deck with the sunset as a backdrop was picture perfect. The house is well equipped and very comfortable. Large jug of bottled water, well stocked kitchen, roomy bedrooms and living areas and the deck is to die for. The snorkeling right out the back door is phenomenal. And a number of other great places just a quick walk up the beach or kayak away.

We rented a car from Danny King, who lives just across the street. Cathy can take care of that for you. Not a necessity but if you want the flexibility and wanting to explore the island or eat out, it is recommended, at least for a couple of days. Danny operates taxi service too so a ride is easy enough when needed.

We were the only ones on the cove during our stay. If you are looking for a hassle free, well maintained property, with a perfect view, right on the beach, and peaceful serene setting, Simplicity is the place.

My wife and I came to stay here for our honeymoon, and had the best week at Simplicity. I know all of these reviews have been extremely positive, but for great reasons! Cathy was great to deal with, answered all of our questions and concerns in a timely manner, and also called to check in and see if we needed anything mid-week. Debby was UNBELIEVABLY helpful throughout the week; the house could not have a better care taker.

We rented a car for two nights, but only used it to go to dinner because we didn't want to leave the Bay. (By the way, you MUST go see Julian and his wife at Da Smoke Pot). The house is in great condition, has everything you need, basically is on a private beach, and has a reef right off the shore. Not much else you could ask for.

Last thing I wanted to note was how central this house is to places you want to go. It is a short bike ride to some of the best restaurants on the island (Da Smoke Pot, Yardies, etc.). It is a quick car ride to the grocery stores (we rode bikes there as well).

All in all, such a great experience!

Simplicity was truly a magical and perfect property for our stay on Cat Island. Lovely home and property even better than the photos and listing describe. Incredible views from huge outdoor decks/living area. Perfect for morning coffee,sunbathing,alfresco dinners and sunset watching. We even caught a glimpse of the "green flash" on our first evening. Located on a very quiet and private beach; ideal for walks, swimming, snorkeling and kayaking. We enjoyed the use of the water toys provided. The home is very comfortable and well appointed with a fantastic gourmet kitchen and high end appliances. And the bathrooms with large private outdoor showers were amazing!! Debbie, the caretaker, greeted us upon arrival and was extremely helpful and friendly during our stay. We would definitely recommend this property and look forward to a return visit next year!!
