Response from the owner Bachmann Family... it was OUR pleasure to have you as our guests for those 3 short days! While our roads are well paved, many visitors are not quite used to the hilly landscape of our island terrain. We always recommend that no matter where you're staying on island, a car is simply the BEST way to make the most of your vacation. I've tried the 15 minute walk to the beach myself... my knees and unconditioned body are thankful it was ony that ONE time! Much better to drive the 2 minute distance and have a car for convenience. ;) We certainly hope you return to our islands again and again! Thank you for sharing your time with us and we hope to see you soon. :)
