Hi,
I am planning a stay of about 2 months in the hopes of finishing writing my new novel. I'm hoping to travel in April and May. A friend suggested Treasure Beach, so I've been checking out the "where to stay" section. Everything looks lovely, which makes choosing difficult, so I thought I'd come to the forum and ask for suggestions/reviews.

What I'm looking for:
- Quiet space with writing table or desk inside and comfortable outdoor sitting space, a little off the main path so there aren't many distractions (I'll want/need to be writing at least four hours every morning).
- Lots of direct sunlight in the morning
- Would love something on the water, but I know that might be asking a lot for what I can afford
- Maybe with someone to prepare late breakfast and dinner?
- Can't afford more than $125/night. My wallet would be so much more comfortable paying less, of course, and paying less would mean staying longer.

I'll be up front and say that I'm looking at other locations, including an apartment swap for a place in Mexico that looks promising. But my friend has been to Treasure Beach a few times and insists the community is exactly what I need, and I'll admit that what I've found on the web makes me think she may be right. I welcome any and all suggestions.

Thank you all so much for reading and for any comments.

Anna
