St Francis felt to my family as a unique resort perhaps because it a smaller resort. We felt special and pampered by the attentive staff who answered all questions and made everything pleasant and easy. We were impressed with the boat captain who was super responsive about ferrying us where we wanted to go and helpful in other ways too. The room was lovely and clean and the view of the ocean and the waves soothing and breathtaking. We ended up eating most meals at the restaurant on site and the food was delicious and prepared with care.

The resort is in a beautiful location, nearby incredible beaches that have very few visitors. Rooms are clean and comfortable. The new management went to every length to make our stay special. From arranging boat transportation to nearby beaches to providing suggestions for trips or must visit places. Julia and Richard ensured the trip was a special and memorable one. We look forward to returning!

This place was perfect if you needed to be somewhere remote, away from the hustle and bustle. The food was awesome, and the staff was very polite. The one thing I would definitely suggest is to spruce up the resort a bit and remove the construction debris from the rooms facing the beach, where the balcony is located. Overall, we enjoyed our stay! Thank you staff. We also enjoyed our boat rides with cha cha.

St Francis Resort is very clean, and all of the staff are extremely helpful and friendly. It is a short kayak or paddleboard ride to the Chat ‘n Chill. Stocking island is beautiful and we will definitely return.
