GUEST REVIEW

The Barn is great. Jax and TC are friendly and responsive. Their house is newly renovated, very clean and well equipped. We cooked most meals at the house and the kitchen had everything we needed. There are citrus trees on the property and we enjoyed fresh grapefruit and lemons. The location is perfect too with only a 5 minute drive to town or a 30 minute walk. There's a nice beach 2 minutes away by walking. We really didn't want to leave. Highly recommend.
