Family of all ages had the most wonderful time. Huge house with everything you could need. What’s best: the location. Start and end your day on the ocean view porch. Take a walk up and down the beach. Go from private beach walk, up to the Banana Bay restaurant…eat, drink, swim, relax. Dave and Yvounger are the best hosts we have ever dealt with. Communication was prompt and overly helpful with getting us prepared for our stay. Yvounger met us at the car rental and brought us back to the house…what an amazing welcome! Thanks so much Dave and Yvounger, this vacation checked everything off our list!
Most relaxing vacation
This is an amazing property and wonderful support staff. Great communication. The location is perfect if you want a beautiful, empty beach at your doorstep. Very peaceful and quiet. Amenities and WIFI great. The kitchen is well stocked and the grill looks new. Dave, the property manager, was easy to work with and responded quickly to any questions. Yvounger, the local host, met us at the car rental and helped us get settled. She is a sweet person and quite helpful. All in all, a great operation. The villa is in a gated, very safe, community. In fact, we find the people on Grand Bahama to be very friendly and kind. We always rent a car (a must) from Brads. This is another great business to deal with. The cars are not new, but well maintained. Any issues are dealt with quickly. Driving on the island is simple compared to many other islands, as it is quite flat with mostly straight roads. There are many great restaurants nearby, our favorite is a quick walk down the beach. This was a most relaxing vacation. Do not hesitate to consider this villa if you are looking for a beautiful, quiet, relaxing beach vacation.
The house and its location are absolutely amazing. Three large bedrooms each with walk-in closets and bathrooms. Large living room with comfy chairs and long dining room table. However the best part of the house is a wide porch that runs from one end of the house to another with gorgeous views of palm trees and blue ocean. We spent hours on the porch drinking coffee, reading a book in the hammock and eating meals at the outdoor table. The beach was only 50 steps from the porch and was gorgeous - - white sand, blue waters, basically deserted and perfect for long walks. Everything about the house, the beach and the location was perfect for a relaxing vacation!!
If you’re looking for a quiet beautiful place to relax and enjoy time with family and friends, this is your spot. It’s rare that a rental home is even better than the pictures, but this place exceeded our expectations. Our experience with the owner was the best we’ve had, and his on-site hostess was super helpful. We’ll be back.
Absolutely amazing home, truly was a short walk right to the beach! THe home was well, well equipped for anything we needed! so many dishes to use. The float tubes were a lifesaver as the water was a bit chilly because of the cold snap:-/ But the house was way more accommodating than expected! Large Bedrooms and everyone has private baths. Air Mattress wasn't working but plenty of extra space for the teenager on the couch! Dave and Yvonga gave us great information for the island. Yvonga met us at the airport escorted us to the house and then escorted us to the grocery store!
Just a great place! I don't even know what else to write. The villa was well-equipped, beautifully decorated, there was everything you needed - towels, deckchairs, a hammock, even a shower in front of the house so you could wash off the sand, and a barbecue. The location - brilliant, right next to the beautiful beach, which was probably one of the prettiest on the island. Quiet, pleasant, safe. I would definitely recommend renting a car because the buses don't run very often and there are no shops in the area. You absolutely must have your own car. It's really worth spending your vacation here. This is a beautiful place!
A view you wont forget and memories that linger
Let me start off by saying , from the minute we booked here, the communication was top notch- Dave provided tons of details and tips that was very useful in planning our 2 week visit there. We arranged for the home assistant- Yvounger to pick us up at the airport. I cant say enough about how amazing she is! Such a pleasant and cheerful individual—she helped us unload baggage, drove us to go get groceries and helped us again get everything in before leaving us to enjoy paradise. The location of this property is amazing. Its fairly central and a only a short walk down the beach to one of the most prettiest areas on the grand Bahamas(Banana Bay restaurant beach). The minute you walk in the home, you are greeted by the most magnificent view that pictures can’t do justice for. The beach is literally 100 feet away! When you visit through, make sure you pull up the daily freeport tide chart and time your walks in either direction down the beach as it will come up fairly far and require you to navigate around it- either in the bush or through the water. However, this was never really a problem for us. Be mindful that the beach area directly behind the house is slightly rocky- but if u go down a bit to the right, there are nice areas to enter ocean and enjoy nice powdery sand beneath your feet. If you really want an experience, travel a short distance to your left- about a 10 minute walk to the beach where the Banana Bay restaurant is located— we did this daily and loved it!! During low tide you can walk so far out that you literally feel like your in the middle of the ocean! The area behind the house itself provides a nice snorkeling spot if your in to that- but paradise cove is thee place to truly snorkel. it’s about a 25 minute drive away, recommend car rental as transportation options are minimal! In general, we felt a car rental was a must! You would be very limited if not, especially if you want to go out to eat, go to the amazing fish fry, gold beach and the National park, etc. Some must things to do: National park/Gold Rock beach, Wednesday night fish fry( outriggers), the market when all the vendors are there( time this when the cruise ships port as a-lot more vendors will be out selling their stuff ), stone crab restaurant for amazing seafood and if you get your fill on seafood- Cappuccinos for Italian is awesome!! House is well stocked and clean. We had one small issue, but was promptly and reasonably addressed! Loved it!
This is our second year staying in this beautiful home and we love it. We go to the Bahamas each year to do a community back-to-school event and last year we fell in love with this home and will book it always for our stay. The quiet area, the location, the view, the beach, the owners, and Yvonne were fantastic in all ways and we can't wait to return. The pictures here don't do the view justice it is just awesome! Thanks for everything

I stayed here with my 2 sons (22 and 17). We loved the house and location. The house is lovely and very welcoming. The owners have thought of everything. My younger son spent hours swaying in the hammock on the porch while I sat and listened to the waves. My older son enjoyed morning runs on the beach. The neighborhood homes are within view but not so close that you feel cramped. Honestly we only saw other people a few times walking on the paths to the beach. WE stayed in late July and the cruise ships weren't up and running yet. This contributed to the quiet but also several activities were closed down. That was ok with us though - we were looking for laid back, peaceful days. There was never anyone else on the beach at the same time as us. Loved Banana Bay restaurant. We spent an afternoon at Lucaya National Park - again did not see a single soul the entire time. Gold Rock Beach there is lovely. The highlight of our trip was a customized, all-day ecology boat trip with Keith Cooper of West End Ecology Tours. We fished (caught our lunch), snorkeled a small shipwreck and then spent the afternoon at Sandy Cay with the stingrays, lemon sharks and black tip sharks. My boys absolutely loved this activity. Our local hostess Yuvonger is a gem as well. If you are looking at this property, you won't be sorry!
