Unfortunately, our experience was not like other reviews. We had Bedbugs. (Photos and video below.) We were moved to a different Bungalow, but the staff didn't seem concerned with the issue at all. In fact, no one even apologized for our nightmare or offered to assist us, besides moving our luggage. If you have ever been faced with Bedbugs (this was our very first experience) then you will know the nightmare that we had, and are still going through 5 weeks post vacation.) Bedbugs aside, this place is disappointing to say the least. The website states "luxury vacation". This place has ZERO luxury. It is best described as rustic camping on the beach on an island. No restaurants, no bars, barely any staff, FILTHY rooms! (After we were reassigned a new bungalow, I spent 8 hours cleaning it.) The owner asked why we stayed if our experience was so bad. Let's remember that we are on an Island!!! We took a plane, and then It took us 6 hours to get there by boat! We don't have a car, and we don't have anywhere else to go! We didn't have a lot of options being part of a group. Also worth noting, the bungalow that we were reassigned to didn't even have running water in one of the bathrooms. We were told that this is a common problem on the island and nothing can be done! So we all had to share one small bathroom!!! For $850 night, we expected running water and clean rooms. After a 4 week battle we were refunded half of our money. That means the other half of our money went to pay for a filthy bungalow and one non usable master bathroom. So if you want a rustic beach vacation with no amenities, little staff, a dirty rental, and bedbugs, then this is the vacation spot for you! Just remember to bring your own cleaning supplies! read more

Blacks Island was very nice. We went as part of a reunion/birthday celebration. The owner Scott was there and made sure we had a great time. We were able to fish, boat to anywhere we wanted to go and hang by the pool. The only way to get there is by boat or helicopter which makes it feel very private and relaxing. It's very close to Port St. Joe. The rooms are well equipped with a full kitchen. Perfect for two couples or families. read more
