The pictures did not truly indicate how wonderful the house is... It was truly a fabulous house to spend a vacation on Elbow Cay! The lush garden with tiered walkway & fountain; saltwater pool with floats provided; covered porches; views to beat postcard photos; watching the boats coming and going from either porch or pool...it is ideall!! The beds are so comfortable and the kitchen is well-stocked. We were so surprised that the Owner provides condiments/spices/sugar/coffee filters/olive was wonderful to find these things! Gorgeous house...quality, decor, linens...we were amazed and very happy with this choice!! The settlement is lovely, blooming, quaint...walking everywhere is so convenient. Groceries and dining around the corner! The golf cart is parked only 5 minutes away because you do not drive into the settlement - easy access when we needed to ride to Firefly or Abaco Inn. Friends were in the house across the alleyway so they had the dock for our boat. Perfect! The house manager, Kristina, was great. We will be back!! Five stars!!! 🌟

Beautiful home and gardens with the best location on the island. We enjoyed watching the boats and sunsets from the gazebo.(coffee to cocktails) The home has everything you need to enjoy your stay. We loved walking around the town area. Our golf cart was about a 7-minute walk from the house, and the ferry dock was at the bottom of the hill. It was too windy on our last day to boat so we enjoyed the pool and sandy beach. We loved enjoying breakfast & dinner outside on the porches each day. Hope to be back!

Extremely pleased with overall stay. House was located in excellent location with a beautiful view of the harbor and entryway for all boats into Hopetown. House was very clean and property manager was very attentive to any needs that may arise. Pool was very nice as well as porches. Would definitely recommend for two couples or a small family of four. Plan to rent again next year.
