Beautiful Secluded Get Away

Property is beautiful and secluded. As people before have said, it is best to have a higher SUV type vehicle, the hill before the parking spot is a pretty good hill. House is perfect, off grid, quiet and had everything we needed. We didnt use the AC but had no issues with anything being off grid. Water access was easy for swimming, paddleboarding, kayaking and snorkeling (go right from the stairs for shallow water and left for deeper water and more fish/coral). If you are looking for a laid back vacation this is the place for you, if you are looking for resort type living pick another island. Thank you Petagay for everything and we hope to be back soon!

Tranquil Escape

Skylarking Cottage is in an extraordinarily beautiful location with unmatched privacy and quiet. I stayed a full week and enjoyed every minute. The view is spectacular with sunsets and morning rainbows over the bay that feel like being in heaven. Petagay is a gracious host and made certain that everything was comfortable.

Can't Ask for More

Skylarking is a very special property, and our time went by much too fast. The location is ideal from the perspective of convenience to groceries, restaurants, beaches and ELH. Regardless of where you stay always rent some type of SUV. You'll definitely need one here. The property is beautiful. It feels like the stone path is leading you into the jungle until you arrive at the house and experience the view of the Caribbean below. The views from this house are breathtaking. The house is essentially one large room. There is a tiny, but well-laid-out and functional kitchen at the back. The main room is airy and spacious. We spent most of the week with the floor-to-ceiling glass doors open, so the large deck felt like an extension of the living space. I slept like a baby the entire week between the fresh air and the sound of the Carribean below. The bathroom is quite large and there's space to store empty luggage under the vanity. The only shower is just outside, and other than the occasional bird or hermit crab, it is completely private. For an off-grid property, the water pressure and temperature were the best we've experienced on the island. While we loved the house, we also spent a lot of time on the little beach and in the water. We realized we could have stayed put for the entire week and have never been bored between snorkeling and paddling. If you're looking for a hotel, Skylarking is not for you, but if you're looking for unplugged time in paradise, it's perfection.

Off the beaten path

If you want a beautiful place to get away from the world….. this is your place ! I felt like we were on a deserted island, but we drove to restaurants when we needed to get out….
