OT: Cat Island

I tried to post this on the Bahamas forum but it wouldn't accept my login. (Anthony: do you have to have a different login for each of the different travel forums?)
Anyway, much as I absolutely LOVE St. John (hence my handle), it's just become too expensive for us to go with the whole family (11 of us; 6 adults & 5 kids under .
So we were looking at some alternatives. Since no group of people would know better what we love (since we all love St. John), could any of you give me any feedback on Cat Island (Bahama out-island). Specifically we're looking to rent a home there on the Olivia d' Windrift estate, called "Spectacular Oceanfront Home." (no, they're not as creative in villa naming as are those in the virgins ; plus the estate thing makes it sound more hoity-toity then it is--kind of like all homes on st. john being villas).
I've heard VERY mixed reviews of this place (both the island and the house), so am relying on all of you!
