We loved our stay! Seeing and hearing the ocean every morning from ALL the bedrooms was a huge plus. The beach below the house was perfect for days we didn’t want to venture out. Loved all the family memories we made!

The perfect paradise
This property is the epitome of paradise! From its breathtaking views, to the impeccable service provided by Stephanie and her staff, this experience was truly paradise on earth. The property was stunning with every amenity you could want or need. We booked this property to host our wedding, and Stephanie went above and beyond in helping us plan everything; from numerous recommendations to giving us a personalized wedding gift, to helping us rearrange canceled flights, Stephanie could not have been a better host. We are forever grateful for the incredible memories we share with you at your home!

Great home and Stephanie rocks!
I rented this home for 17 of my friends to celebrate my 40th birthday! From the time of booking to after I got home, Stephanie was absolutely incredible to work with! She had the best recommendations, was super attentive and not to mention the home was gorgeous! It was a great set up for a large group of adults. I still dream about the views and I cannot wait to go back!

Beautiful Property
Shades of Blue was absolutely stunning views of the water. A great piece of real estate. The floorplan was well thought out and accommodating for the extended family. It was perfectly located to George Town. We recommend renting a car if staying here. Stephanie was amazing to work with during the booking process and extremely accessible. Beaurren was great and very communicative if we need any assistance while at the house. We have never rented a place with as much kitchenware as this place and we were pleasantly surprised.

Unbelievable views
Best view and setup we’ve ever had on vacation. The infinity pool, steps to a private beach, and access to crystal clear waters were unbelievable. We rented jet skis on two separate days and were able to access nearby beaches (loved Tropic of Cancer) and private islands. The Cut was very cool. Everyone we met on the island, including chefs (Chef Paul), drivers, and boat captains (Antonio), were great to work with. The homeowner, Stephanie, and house manager, Uncle B, were incredibly responsive. All in all, an amazing stay at an amazing location. We will be back!
