Wade’s place is in the best location in Hopkins for access to the beach, markets, restaurants, and being immersed with the locals. The rental was immaculate and had everything we needed. Having free bikes to use made exploring easy. The large balcony was perfect for chilling in the hammocks and watching Hopkins go by. Wade and Debra are perfect hosts offering great information about the area but also allowing our privacy. We spent one evening watching the sun set from the “Crows Nest” above Wade’s residence. There are many opportunities to book tours from local companies but we spent most of our time enjoying the amazing, calm and safe ocean perfect for swimming, paddle boarding, or just floating. This is not an isolated resort stay. This is a place to experience Hopkins including the sounds of dogs, roosters, domino games, motorcycles, and the occasional karaoke night. Don’t let that scare you away. We had great sleeps in this unit that picked up the ocean breezes and was very secure.
