Our stay at Hawks Nest was just perfect! The cabins are rustic, but in a very charming way. Everything is clean and works. The kitchen has everything you would need to cook your own meals. There is even hot water in the kitchen. They even supply all your drinking water. There are several small grocery stores on the island, one of which is within 500 meters of the cabin. Although remember it is an island that grows nothing of its own except coconuts- so everything comes from the mainland.
The shower works great, good water pressure and hot water. The airconditioner also works perfectly.
The cabin is on a gated complex with an adjacent cabin and the owner's house (Steve and Dena). It is secure and quiet. It is in a local neighbourhood, which we loved. The property is about a 10-20 minute bike ride from the main strip. Two bicycles per cabin are provided- which was great! This place is not in the center of all the action and bars, which we loved because it is quiet and has a real local feel.
Dena and Steve were exceptional hosts, quick to communicate and had lots of local insights and suggestions. We even wound up going on a full day snorkeling trip with their tour company and it was great, you even get a good discount! Highly recommend both the place and the excursion.
