Some 200 feet of waterfront is the main attraction at this property, a combination of two lodging options. Coconut palms whisper in the breeze, and gumbo-limbo trees shade the 2½-acre grounds. Nice features abound, like well-placed lounge chairs for gazing out over the water, and kayaks and paddleboats (for when you want to get closer). Everybody shows up on the sundeck or the 16-foot dock to watch the sun slip into Davy Jones's Locker. Rooms are a bit tight but not without island character. Pale-yellow cottages are simply furnished. Ask for Unit 25 and 26, a two-bedroom villa that will give you extra space and a water view. Pros: bayfront; neatly kept gardens; walking distance to restaurants. Cons: a bit dated; small sea-walled sand beach.
