We loved staying at St. Francis. You have the island almost for you. We enjoyed canoeing to the blue hole to see the fishes, going to Chat and Chill and nearby beaches. Gillian and George are great and make you feel home. They prepared a wonderful barbecue on our last night with grilled lobster, steak, chicken and great side dishes. We also had a great time enjoying the Atlantic with nice waves to play and body surf. Long walks are also a great idea. Do not miss George feeding the big fish at 8am. Can’t wait to return.
Rooms are spacious, there is a microwave, mini fridge and coffee maker in the room. Air conditioning works well. Rooms have 80s decor but I find it a great way to conserve resources. Enjoy the nature in the harbor, Atlantic and in the beautiful gardens.

This place and the owners were most fabulous. I felt like I had the entire island to myself. I spend much of my time beach walking and paddling. We also had a fabulous perfectly prepared seafood dinner on our night prior to departure.

We had a fabulous stay at the St. Francis. George and Gillian are wonderful hosts. From the back window of our room we looked out on the Atlantic, and from the front entrance we looked at the harbor. Stocking Island is beautiful - waves on one side and calm swimming on the other. We spent time on a couple of the beaches and were usually the only ones there. We enjoyed kayaking to the Chat 'n Chill to swim with the stingrays. Meals at the St. Francis were delicious. We took an all day tour of the surrounding area, which included snorkeling with sea turtles, walking alone on a pristine sandbar, snorkeling near a blue hole and on some of the many gorgeous reefs. It was such a treat to spend time in this beautiful place, and the gracious hosts were a bonus.
