Warm quiet solace...

There is a little known private island in the Carribbean,
fringed with white sandy beaches
basking in crystal clear warm turquoise water...


Petit St. Vincent Island...only 100 acres of rolling hills.
Tamed just enough
to allow 22 guest cottages...one could be yours.

...Each built of stone. All are naturally air conditioned... Simply the beach breeze through

opened louvered doors and windows, Cool terra cotta floors

And palm frond ceiling fans...slowly revolving.

No tv.No radio. no phone...
just quiet.
Peace.




In the warm evenings...oil lanterns light the way to the beach where tables and chairs are scattered along the shoreline and a steel drum band sets the festive spirit.
One can feast on grilled chicken, steak, lobster, and fish.
During the sun soaked days...Guests can sail, scuba, kayak...or just walk throughout
the many marked trails along the island.
There is a yoga pavilion and a massage therapist for your every whim.
ahhh

Go there. Live it.
...Save a spot for me!

BEAUTIFUL! I just showed my family... I told them I won the lottery and this is what I bought! :) LOL
Wouldn't that be FUN to own! I don't think they like the part about no tv, phone or radio though... hmmmmm... sounds like HEAVEN!
Ohhhhh... maybe not for moi either... does that mean no internet to blog... ohhhhhhh... I don't know if I could do without that.
ENJOY!

One of the coolest parts is 2 staff to every guest (Oh to dream...!!). They have these big flag poles that you raise the yellow flag if you need anything (you can leave a note in the box) and they come a runnin'!Raise the red flag if you want to be left alone. It is just a vaca Fifi...I imagine the owner has wifi and all the goodies...If you owned it, you could too!!
