Greatest week of my life

It is impossible to put into words how amazing my stay was at 1BSI. From arrival to departure, everything was perfect. Kent was responsive and brought me any supplies I may have needed. The island itself provided a great place to unwind, meditate, and relax. I even was able to work remotely on the island (thanks Kent for supplying rechargeable batteries daily). Cell service was strong. Highly recommend whether you’re looking for a remote place to work, a place to disconnect, or a mixture of both. Will definitely be coming back again.

I will return. I could have stayed longer. It was a nice respite from a stressful life. Hosts were amazing. Extremely accommodating! My dog loved being able to swim (and chase sticks - finally learned to bring them back to the beach) every day. I think it helped that the hosts left a container of the training cookies. And they left a dog bowl, which I forgot. The wood stove was perfect for keeping us warm at night and when my dog was a still chilly after her swims. Again, I will return!
