Kareemsquest.com learnt about this place through their relationship with Luxe Resort Hotel (click link to read full story), as it is part of their excursion package. Sand n Saddle is a small mom-and-pop owned business that places a lot of attention to personal service.
There is a big gate at the entrance of the property, which is always locked if there are no scheduled tours. However if this is a tour, kareemsquest.com was told that visitors can access the property, sign their waivers and start the excursion.
The first part of the tour takes persons through several community farms and the guides share knowledge about the various crops. Then a left turn is taken onto a lovely white-sand beach, where the horses walk along the sand, on a stretch that kareemsquest.com found both scenic and therapeutic. When this is finished the group heads back to the main property and changes clothes to get into the water.
The great thing about their beach is that it is a cove, so no matter how rough the sea is, the section for the tour is usually calm. Persons then mount the horses, with a tour guide at the lead and the other at the back, and are taken, at a modest pace, through five feet of water.
After this is done, kareemsquest.com was told that guests can opt to swim and relax at the beach, if they are not too tired from the activity.
