Island Inn
Really nice, updated, and clean room with a screened waterfront balcony in a perfect place on the island (far enough away from the big resorts to be in a quieter area, but close enough to the center area of the island to be convenient).

The beach right out front of the property is beautiful and clean. Great for shell collecting. Nice pool with new chairs and lots of towels. I would return to this resort.
