Paradise!!

This house was the perfect size for our group of 5 friends! It was so clean and comfortable. The dock was the perfect way to start and end our days, we brought floats to hang out on in the water. The day we did a boat excursion we were able to get picked up right outside our house at the dock. There were so many towels for us to use, the grill worked great, and the golf cart we rented through the house ran well. Stella and Ross were welcoming and very helpful! Stella’s mango bread was delicious :) Thank you two for the best and most relaxing senior spring break we could have asked for!! We made lifelong memories!

We continue to return to this lovely place every year. My husband and I are on a boat which we dock in front of the house. Then family and friends fly in to meet us. The hosts are fantastic. We have many happy memories here!

Amazing!

This house was absolutely perfect for our family of 6. We rented a boat, so we spent a lot of time fishing and exploring the area by water. Ross made us feel perfectly at home. We could have chatted for hours! The manatees even paid us a visit! An amazing week!

Amazing Adventure

The property and experience exceeded expectation. The house was amazing, it had ample space for our group of 6 adults, well thought out design that provided an easy flow. A quick golf cart ride and you can find anything you need, but for us the dock in front of the house was a huge value add for our 2 boats. This tucked away location is perfect for any inclement weather, and made for easy loading/unloading of the boats after a day or fishing/exploring. Highly recommend. We will be back!

Awesome Vacation!

This was one of the best vacations we've ever had! Ross and Stella are fabulous hosts! Throughout our stay they went out of their way to help us. It started as soon as we got off the ferry in Spanish Wells. Ross took our luggage in his cart and we drove his rental cart back to his place. The day before we were supposed to take the ferry back to Nassau, we received a call telling us the ferry was broken and that we needed to find another way to get back to Nassau. After trying all the airlines and finding out that they were all booked, Ross came to our rescue and helped us make arrangements to charter a plane. By the way, I neglected to write that their house is gorgeous and exceeded our expectations! Everyone in our party felt like we were long lost cousins.

Quiet, relaxing, beautiful place

Ross and Stella were excellent hosts. They are on site in the home next door, but so kind and thoughtful. They give you your space, but are very responsive if you need anything. The house is exactly as listed. Kitchen is stocked for those of us that like to prepare our own meals. Boat access with the dock is very convenient for daily adventures on the beautiful Bahama Blue waters. Kids loved fishing off of the dock out front and jumping in the canal. We will most definitely be back!! Thanks for making us feel at home away from home.

Easter Family

My brothers family and mine said here for 5 nights. This consisted of kids 10, 7, 6, 4 and 1 and 4 parents. The house fit us comfortably. The hosts made us feel welcome and were always nearby if there was any issues, and the cookies were a great treat for all. It was great to be able to pull the boat up and park right there. The kids loved being able to fish on the dock (catch and release), and jump into the water and climb back up. As always Spanish Wells was great, and we even got a goodbye from a Manatee at the house dock as we were leaving. Would highly recommend

Awesome Stay

We spent two weeks in late March staying at this beautiful house. The location is right on the water and has plenty of outdoor seating to enjoy the beautiful view, the fish, manatees and sea turtles. There were six of us and we all loved the comfortable beds, plenty of towels and well stocked kitchen. Ross and Stella are the best hosts, making us feel so welcomed and spoiling us with freshly made conch salad that was the best we’ve ever had! Darren was also so helpful in answering questions prior to our arrival and making arrangements for transportation from ELH. We also had Bahamian lobster tails fresh from Bernard’s boat…so yummy! It was a wonderful trip!
