Hopefully, some of the members here who have already done this will chime in.

We’ve been visiting the island annually for almost fifty years and once upon a time we considered making such a move. We considered so many options and in the end decided in our case the possible good facets of living there just didn’t outweigh the negative possibilities. But that was us.

I’ve known a few who have made the move without a regret in the world at having done so and are totally happy with their move but by the same token I’ve known a few who questioned their own sanity and couldn’t wait to move back ‘home’ again.

My only concerns for you would be that you were only there once for a week and that was fifteen years ago. The island has changed so much through the natural evolvement not to mention the changes due to storms, etc. And looking at a vacation spot is very different from looking at a living situation.

Think long and hard, and whatever your end decision, good luck.
