Reviews Bahamas Vacation Beach House Rental

DeBora,
We are calling you from your villa right now and we absolutely love it. We wanted to call you right away to have you please mark us down for next year during the same time frame. We realize that this is a year away, but we are having such a great time that we wanted to make sure we didn’t loose our chance of reserving this home for next year. We were eating at Chez Pierre and another couple said that next year they wanted to stay here, so we had to call you right away.
Thanks

Reply from DeBora: You got it! I'm glad to hear you enjoy it as much as I do.

Hi DeBora,
We did have the most wonderful week of weather!
The people of Long Island are so great - that is one reason why we come back every year (as well as the lovely, secluded beaches). Many of the friends we met when we were there on our sailboat 4 years ago are still around and it is so great to catch up with them. Your cottage is so convenient for us because most of our friends are either at the Bite, or in salt pond/Thompson bay so it is the perfect location. It is also very clean, has wonderful views and really does meet our needs for the stay. My only suggestion would be to add a cutting board, or maybe a small cooler to the kitchen equipment. Other than that - it was perfect! Thank you for having us and I'm sure we will be back!

Best,
Jennifer

Reply from DeBora: Since our home is new, we are gradually bringing items down to the house. Cutting Board and Cooler are on their way. Thanks for the idea!

Hey DeBora,
YES, we had exceptional weather all days there! We enjoyed the location a lot! The beach house was great! .... We enjoyed the Bahamian Village/Pirates of the Caribbean tiki bar and grill. Great people there and clean!...It was so close! :) We also had some food from the Seafood market at the Marina just up the road (west side) and the lobster and shrimp were incredible! We used Hillside Grocery! They had everything we wanted and needed. The timer coffee machine was great to have. Woke up to coffee every morning! Perfect!

Your "Yukka" bushes at the downstairs entrance and at the stairs tot he upstairs stabbed us a few times. Just thought you may want to know that... in case you want to move them somewhere else at some point. :) They would be great out front around the screened area for "protection" rather than at a very frequented spot. Not trying to tell you how to do things at all! I just know how it feels to have rental property and thought I would give you my opinions. :)...

We had issue with the can opener upstairs-both of them. Could not seem to get the old one to work at all and the new one in the knife set block was confusing and we never figured it out.

There's a GREAT guy at Chris and Jean's Dive shop off Queens Road just south of you that carves wood and makes the coolest art! Fish, sea turtles, YOU NAME IT! Very quality work and we saw many of his pieces around. Great wall hangings!! He's a native (young) and works with Chris a lot... I think his name is Charles! Very nice young man and his mom makes all kinds of cool straw stuff, placemats, baskets, etc... She has a shop north of your place.

We loved the house and the location! We got a couple of kayaks from Chris and Gene (American) down the road (Queen's) at ReelDivers. They were so cool and very helpful with insight on the island of where all the neat spots were! ..We wrote a nice note in your greeting book too! We loved the island and it's natives we met!
Thanks so much.

Reply from DeBora: I moved the Yukka bushes to the back side of the new outside grill location - thanks for the tip. They really did get big fast and they also stabbed me in the back a few times before I moved them. Also, a new electronic can opener is already at the house upstairs. Simply put it on the can, press the button and let it go. Thanks for your suggestions - we used them all.

Hi DeBora: We had an excellent vacation on Long Island. Beautiful weather - sunny every day, breezy and no humidity. ...Debora's Dreamscape Villa on Indian Hole Point, Thompson Bay was spacious, new, and right on the beach - beautiful sunset views! We loved the food at Chez Pierre (great seafood pasta), Club Washington had excellent chicken, grouper & burger platters (great prices) Contact Jerrry @ Atlantic Fisheries in Salt Pond for fresh grouper and lobster tails - we feasted 3 days on this. (signposted just off Queens Hwy by HCS grocery store) ...While in Clarence town visit the majestic Father Jerome Anglican and Catholic churches - stunning! The islanders were incredibly friendly and made our visit truly memorable. We had a wonderful time You could mention on your website Atlantic Fisheries in Salt Pond. The owner Jerry was fabulous and sold us fresh grouper and lobster tails - great for someone who would like a meal or 2 at home. ... Bahamian Village ... you could mention this on your website as a lunch recommendation.
Warm Regards,
Sherry Chiarolanzio
