Summary: What an amazing experience from beginning to end. This resort is definitely worth the money. Amazing views. Awesome access to a bay on one side and the ocean on the other. We practically had the beaches to ourselves. And the afternoon port wine and cheese is relaxing and a great social hour to learn more about others and all that the island has to offer. And the resort staff are all awesome. They are not only knowledgeable, but caring. They literally go out of their way to help you, regardless if they are currently busy. I hope the owners (Karps) read this review and are aware that you can have a great set of programs like they currently do, but it is their current staff and management that takes their resort "over the top." Captain Rob, the tour guide is a historian and navigator of the island. And Sean Burpee, their manager of the Wauwinet, really works with you to get the type of experience(s) you want while you are at their resort. They are nothing short of outstanding and I hope that if they ever receive offers from other programs that the owners will match those offers and increase their salaries to keep these amazing people in place so that the program does not suffer. These people know exactly how to make you have the experience of a lifetime. This place and all the staff are easily an 11/10.
