A perfect vacation spot!
We had a wonderful stay at the Take Five villa! It’s a beautiful property and the villa was perfect— clean, comfortable, and set up to enjoy ocean views from the comfort of the patio. It fit our needs perfectly. Jackie is a wonderful cook and incredibly helpful in arranging taxis, excursions, menu planning, etc. She made our stay special and we appreciated her very much! We would absolutely stay at the villa again— highly, highly recommend! **Some things to consider: either book & pay for excursions in advance or bring a lot of cash! For example: cash for airport transfer each way, taxis are about $75-150 (or more depending where you go) for each excursion, some destinations insisted on cash vs debit card for admission (ie: Blue Hole), and of course there are a lot of opportunities to tip, especially to the Villa staff. Moral of the story: you can’t have enough cash on hand! L&M grocery delivery is very convenient, but make sure you plan for a couple days worth of meals up front! We planned for the night we arrived through lunch the next day, but then we were scrambling to send another grocery order the next morning in time for delivery. Overall, we had a wonderful stay & we will always fondly remember Take Five Villa!

Relaxing family vacation
Take Five is a lovely villa in a beautiful setting with knowledgeable property managers and a fantastic housekeeper/chef, Jackie. Kevin handled the initial communication during our planning of the trip, and he was accommodating and timely with his responses. Vicki, the onsite property manager, was helpful and resourceful. I will say, though, that Vicki's demeanor towards the staff and outside vendors was unpleasant and did not make me feel good. Furthermore, for the duration of our stay, Vicki recommended a tip of 10-15%. For the duration of our trip, that amount was $1,800.00. I expressed that that figure was more like a salary than a tip because the listing stated Jackie's services were included. This made me conclude that Jackie is underpaid and undervalued by the villa property manager. And for this reason, I would not revisit Take Five. Additionally, there is no indoor seating to dine; you must eat outdoors.

Home away from home paradise
My friends and I stayed here to bring in my 30th birthday. Bringing in my birthday and the new year at the villa was the perfect start to the year. We absolutely loved the space. It is clean, organized and peaceful. The villa is up to date, trendy and cozy. The communication from the host was great and the pictures, which are amazing as is, dont do the villa justice. Returning to my home country to this space was just what I needed. We have to also give a special note to Ms. Jackie, the villa staff. She made a special acknowledgement of my birthday, which was really speacial to me. She now has a special place in all of our hearts. She was attentive and thoughtful and made out experience so much better and left us feeling like she is part of our family. My family, friends, and I no longer want to stay at any other location that we have visited because we truly fell in love with this villa and the community of staff they have created. We cannot wait to return later this year. We are honored to be among the first guests at the villa!

The villa is newly renovated. The furnishings are comfortable and the design is simple and tasteful. Great attention to detail. It's is situated in a spectacular seaside location with so many offerings nearby -- you can stay really busy or just fall asleep under a shady tree, go for a swim in the pool or in the ocean. The perfect place for you to "Take Five".
