The penthouse is a converted space on the top floor of a house right outside the entrance to the beach. You can easily walk to the beach from the house, plus there are other beaches just right down the road as well. We really enjoyed our stay. The sleeping area is an enclosed lanai, so if you're looking to enjoy the breezes and sounds of nature (and coqui frogs) then this is the place! Fell asleep each night to the sounds of the island. There's a hammock on the lanai as well that makes for a great place to relax. The penthouse offers nice island living!
