Where do we start!!?? We arrived to a beautifully appointed home rich with amenities and special touches. The table was set with candles, a bottle of wine, loaf of fresh bread from a local Amish baker, a round of fresh cheese from a local farm, Popsicles in the freezer for our grandchildren. The list went on and on...
We can't say enough about Duane and Susan, the owners of this property, The Nautical Star. Susan texted mid-day on check-in day to let us know an earlier arrival time was available if we wanted it. She checked in on us our first full day there to answer any questions. Then Duane checked in physically or via the VRBO app nearly every day. The owners were incredibly informative about local attractions. At the same time they encouraged us to take a walk in the neighborhood and simply enjoy the beauty that is PEI.
The home has nearly every amenity: heated, sparkling clean swimming pool, beautifully clean outdoor hot tub that Duane drains and sanitizes between each rental to help ensure the most positive experience for each vacationer. Lots of room for yard games, a firepit to relax around, an outdoor fireplace to enjoy while in the hot tub, outdoor shower with hot and cold water, gas grill, outdoor kitchen, smoker grill, 3 hammocks, kayak and canoe usage in the tidal river, lots of decking to relax on.
The interior was pristine with soaring ceilings, exposed beams, comfy beds well spread out. Bathrooms with amazing showers and Jacuzzi tubs, modern appliances, great washer/dryer set up. A beauty of a gas fireplace, private seating area on second floor with an amazing view. So much room...we were a party of 8 and had lots of room to spread out. The rec room in the basement has an air hockey table that saw alot of usage. Toys and books for the kids, electronics for the grown ups, wifi, high speed internet..
THE NAUTICAL STAR is perfectically central in location to explore all PEI. Wether you want a day-long excursion or feel like hopping around souvenir shopping, this property made a perfect choice for us. And when we just wanted relaxation time, The Nautical Star gave us that too!
We look forward to returning again next year!
