Description from owner

Description

Ocean front, fully screened Caribbean style cottage. Yellow Bird is built just above the delightful near-deserted Tom's Bay cove with its rocky outcrops and sandy inlets. Stroll from your west facing veranda down a path and a few steps right onto the rocks at the end of the beach.

Warm swimming and good snorkeling right outside your holiday home. Superb views over Hillsborough Bay and the out-islands to the western horizon. Spectacular sunsets.

The sea is your first view when you open your eyes in the morning. You are surrounded by colorful gardens and hear only birdsong and the sound of the surf breaking just below.

The colorful waterfront cottage is thoughtfully equipped and has everything you need to enjoy the perfect waterside holiday. Plus we have binoculars and a library with reference books to help you identify the many tropical fish, birds and plants on the island. Resident iguanas come by to sun themselves in the trees in the afternoon.
