Fantastic views and a great house to stay at - We had a wonderful time at Staniel. Too little time and too much to do, of course. The beauty of the area was complemented by the wonderful people we met. "Swept Away" (the house), with it's breathtaking views, was beyond our expectation. Besides being beautiful, it was very comfortable, and fully equipped. We will most definitely be back!"

Great house, beautifully furnished with amazing views! The house was very comfortable fully equipped with everything that you could possibly want. 360 degree spectacular views! We absolutely loved it!

Barry T.

Perfect for two couples - We rented the home for a week and it is just the right size for two couples. Great views all around. Easy to relax in. Kitchen a bit short on dinner knives, wine glasses & coffee cups, but otherwise fully stocked. We were visiting friends on the cay so the included golf cart made it easy to get around. Barry was very solicitous that we enjoy our stay -- and we did! Lovely island, great community and welcoming people too.

I stayed there for a week, and the accommodations were superb! Everything was in working order and very clean. The views were awesome and could not ask for a better place. Will most definitely be staying there again. Internet and TV were a big plus!

We wanted to write and say what a wonderful time we had at Swept Away. My wife and I spent a week there in May of 2014, and we were so glad we made the decision to stay. From the moment we arrived Barry and his helpers made our visit wonderful, he is a very gracious host. We were met at the airport with a golf cart, zipped off to the house, and from the moment we stepped into Swept Away we knew we would love it.

This vacation rental is one of the nicest on the island; it feels like home; nicely furnished, very well maintained, beautiful interior design; bathroom has jacuzzi tub and the kitchen is well equipped; great views from every window and balcony; the owners and the housekeeper are very pleasant; this rental offers many amenities you won't find in other rentals on the island.
