Xislamdgirl - You really want to know why I choose to rent a villa? Lol. It's not so I can make a sandwich (which I do every night before I have to go to work). It's so that I can lie naked on the deck.

Xislandgirl - Here is what I'm confused about: Do you honestly believe I don't know that I COULD make a sandwich in the villa??? I was asking something else though...

It seems to me that if the lease holder refuses to honor the public access requirement then they should not receive a lease extension. In fact, if there isn't going to be public access, pe...

Evita - I sent you over here from Fodors. Let us know if something works out for you. Good luck!

LisaRex - We also prefer the outboard motor dinghy (from Noah's Little Arks) because we prefer to beach the dinghy. It's not as comfy as the center console though (they can not be beached). I don't know about the center console ones, but the regular dinghy is VERY difficult to get back in if you jum...

We packed a lunch from Deli Grotto and some beverages and had a wonderful picnic on Little Cinnamon. We were all alone!
