Great hosts comfortable room beautiful property

Husband and I and our 12 year-old daughter stay here for three nights while we were in the area for a rugby tournament. The house was so welcoming and made us feel right at ease. The property is beautiful and very secure. The garden is just filled with gorgeous plants and little details everywhere I had to take a lot of pictures. It’s on the waterfront so there’s a view from the window. Yeah there’s a path down to the water or a place to sit in the grass overlooking. It’s very close to many amenities. The room was super large and really comfortable. Everything was spotless. The host thought of everything that we would need in a hotel style room. But hotels don’t have this kind of charm or Detail and certainly you don’t have houses that are this great. We will definitely go back when we’re in the area. Mill Bay is beautiful and a gem of the island

Beautiful Spot

We loved Fiona and Isabella's beautiful home, their warmth, and especially their sweet dogs, Jackson and Maggie. The upstairs rental was well equipped and nicely decorated. The only thing we were a little surprised by is how small the area is with the twin beds; it was hard to tell from the pictures. However, the amazing view from the window there, and the ocean breezes really made up for it. Thanks for a lovely weekend!

Lovely, peaceful spot

What a beautiful property! This suite is on the top floor of the host home, so the view is spectacular! (But be warned: there are steep stairs.) The unit is cozy and comfortable and the hosts are very generous and accommodating. It was great to bring our kayak and be able to launch from their beach whenever we wanted to. We thoroughly enjoyed our 10 day stay.

Amazing communication and super accommodating

Fiona and Isabelle went above and beyond. We reached out in January looking for a place we could hold our wedding ceremony. After reaching out, Fiona was so accommodating! From taking the time to show the place to our in laws as we are from out of town, to checking us in with smiles, jokes and laughter! Isabelle was incredibly accommodating with us for the day of the wedding to acheive the photos we wanted. We are so grateful for Fiona and Isabelle accommodating us and making the experience wonderful! Not to mention their home and property is truly paradise! -Cherie & Dave (The Christensens)

I Could Live Here Forever….

I loved staying at Mill Bay Moments. It’s exactly as described and more. Fiona, Isabelle and their adorable doggies, Jackson and Maggie were very welcoming and helpful. The suite was impeccable - from the cleanliness to the understated decor to quality of furnishings, cutlery, coffee maker, toaster oven… you get my drift. And the sheets! Oh, the sheets. I am a lover of fine, quality sheets which you hardly ever find in any type of accommodation. The ocean view from my room was amazing and so was the garden. When I’m in this area again I will definitely stay at Mill Bay Moments again! Thanks again, Fiona, Isabelle, Jackson and Maggie 💕💕💕

We booked this apartment for our daughter as it was close to Brentwood School. The school is a short walk away. The apartment is spacious, super clean and has a beautiful view of the bay. Fiona was exceptional. Super fast in responding to messages and always very kind, friendly and helpful. It was as if our daughter was staying with a family friend. Thank you vary much Fiona!
