Melinda's place is located such a short walk from great beaches, lots of food, the city center, and a 10 minute or less walk to the water taxi that you can do entirely on the beach. I booked the place last minute and Melinda was very accommodating and met me at the water taxi, showed me around the neighborhood and took me to the place to check me in. I was solo for a day and then my friends joined and the area felt very safe. I loved that I could walk everywhere and didn't need to rent a golf cart for the entire time. She does have golf cart parking in the back if you decide you need it though. The balcony was nice in the evening. The only downside was that the balcony is blocked from an ocean view by the high school. But with everything so convenient, this didn't bother me at all. There is quite a bit of traffic on the street because it is the main road on the island. The traffic noises can be heard in the living area, but the bedrooms were tucked in the back and I didn't notice any street noise. The place was very clean and we really loved our stay here.
