From start to finish Harv, Michael, and Bill were unbelievable. As soon as I booked I told them I was going to propose to my girlfriend, and they immediately offered to host a poolside dinner cooked by Michael, who is a chef. I communicated through email with them on several occasions, and they were always quick to respond. Harv provided a comprehensive 29 page information booklet which included information on everything from the best restaurants and entertainment to use rain or shine, to information on the hosts, the house, and the area. READ THE BOOK!! Aside from this, you will receive information on numerous ways to save money on everything, rental cars, boats, and excursions.

Jeny and I were shocked when we saw how well put together, quiet, and relaxing the home was. You have a private entrance to the back, impeccably kept landscaping, a private cottage with complimentary snacks and drinks, and a private fenced in area with a hot tub, comfortable patio furniture, and a table, all to yourself. When we arrived late after being stranded on the runway for an hour, we were met with drinks and a tour of the grounds. Breakfast was served every morning, poolside if the weather was nice and in their home if it wasn't. When I needed something they were there, and they never made us feel anything less than a member of their family.

If you are taking a romantic vacation, traveling on business, or simply passing through you simply must reserve with Harv, Michael, and Bill. I have been a guest in many places, and I have never found a host that manages to strike the perfect balance between privacy and availability, or one as accommodating.

As a side note, when weather turned bad and we were not able to have the poolside dinner, Harv personally made reservations for us at a very nice waterfront restaurant with a good view of the water. Upon arriving at the cottage after proposing, Harv had put a bottle of champagne in an ice bucket for us and Michael had baked us a delicious dessert. This kind of personal service cannot be bought, it only comes from a personal desire to be the perfect hosts.

Thank you very much for the perfect week, we will be back!
