“What struck me most is the modern design nestled within the lush landscape of the island's north side, giving it a secluded feel; the convenience of scheduled boat trips to town balances tranquility with accessibility. The wood-fired pizza is reportedly the best around, with a massage therapist so skilled that a physician would hire her. It's a well-considered spot.”
