There is nothing better than rolling out of bed and having coffee on your private deck just steps from the ocean! The beach is beautiful, quiet and calm. We really enjoyed being away from the hustle and bustle of the resorts.

AVOID AT ALL COSTS. The hosts are pushy and the main photo of the beach is not what you actually arrive to. We arrived from out of the country 20 minutes earlier than check-In and there was no flexibility from the host whatsoever. We were instructed to leave our bags and take a walk. Ridiculous. We were wrongfully accused of damaging the apartment and evicted after the first night because of a personal argument between my spouse and I. There was never any damage and this was confirmed by the property manager. We were aggressively sent packing packing by the host. They are unreasonable, aggressive and controling. Palm cay offers one restaurant and one bar and it doesn’t open until noon. Outside of that you need a rental car to travel to the EXTREMELY expensive local food mart. Palm cays members area is spectacular. I would recommend staying there instead.

Our neighbours were so frightened by the 3:00 AM screaming and shouting for help from your wife, they called both security and the police, both of which quickly showed up and calmed your drunken fight. End Of Story.

This villa was perfect for our family! The views, outdoor space and beach access were absolutely amazing! The community was beautiful and nice to walk/run. Communication before and during our trip was the best we’ve ever had with a rental. We had a team of three who were able to help with everything. The kitchen was well equipped. There was a fantastic selection of spices and more than enough prep bowls, pots and pans, dishes and glasses. I planned to bring dishwasher pods and forgot so we ended buying some expensive ones. We made a few trips to Solomon’s grocery store and we were able to eat well including grilling. Prices were similar or a little better than other islands. We left some items that the next guests could hopefully enjoy. Having a full sized washer and dryer was super convenient. There was detergent. My adult children enjoyed the paddle boards. There was one snorkel set which may have been for a child. We should have brought our own from home and inflatables. They were surprisingly hard to locate on the island. We ended up finding a couple of small pool noodles. Our stay wasn’t long enough. Would gladly return! Thanks for a lovely vacation!

Beautiful location

This was a fabulous location and property! Check in and prior communication was outstanding. The privacy of the beach was great. We appreciated the snorkel gear and towels as we did not need to pack those items. A suggestion would be to stalk more than one essential supply such as garbage bags, coffee filters and detergent. As that is my only suggestion this really was a treasure !

Horrible conditions

This home was in horrible conditions. The owner has had the audacity to charge me for items that were originally broken . Her manager Andrea is a scam. Mold on the window treatments , sliding glass Doors that were impossible to open. Faucets that were broken . I can add videos and pictures to back up my claims. I expect my money returned or we will Have major problems .

beautiful beach

The home when my family stayed there was quiet. There were only two other units that had guests in them. Also, it felt safe as it was gated with actual security guards patrolling routinely. I mention this bc my family has been out of the US several times and not all homes have felt safe even though they were gated. Communications with the owner were good, she also has a property manager who I dealt with during my stay. The home has a washer and dryer but no detergent is supplied. You can’t drink the water so be aware and bring filtered water bottles like I did. Also they only supply 1 towel per person, there is no linen closet available in the house as other rental homes usually have. Water shoes are a really good idea, not necessarily for the beach but for the deck on the house as family members got splinters from it, it should be refinished.

We always supply drinking water, a 5 gallon jug of Bahamas best filtered water is connected to the refrigerator water dispensing system. This system also supplies plenty of clean Ice for your use. We also supply a spare 5 gallon bottle so that you always have plenty of drinkable water and Ice. We are sorry about the detergent, we usually leave detergent in the cupboard beside the washer dryer. We do refinish the wooden deck on a yearly basses, however, sometimes the wet, hot beach environment can quickly deteriorate the wooden finish, especially toward the end of the summer. We are so happy that you did enjoy our beautiful, safe, secure home and your time on the beach. Thank you for your visit.

A vaca in paradise!!

We had a wonderful time at this VRBO! There were 6 of us. 3 adults and 3 teens. The property was better than the pictures in my opinion. Staying directly on the water was like living in a postcard. I’m not one for the hectic hustle bustle of huge resorts - screaming kids, waiting for elevators, etc. This villa was perfect. It was clean, the beds were comfortable, and it was stocked with mostly everything needed. ( a couple extra blankets was honestly the only thing I could have asked for and if I would have asked for it I have no doubt the property manager would have gotten it for me… not a big deal). The villa was stocked with enough dishes, pots, pans, glasses, spices, cleaning supplies, body soap, shampoo, etc. There were even tennis rackets, snorkeling equipment and a paddle board to use. The property manager was quick to respond. The community is gated and I felt completely safe. We rented jet skis from marina. We ate at the sandwich shop twice and the pink octopus ( restaurant on site) twice. Food was great! Expensive compared to the US but all the food in Nassau was really expensive. We rented a van which worked out so that we could site see on the island and go to the grocery/liquor store as needed. Highly recommend staying at this villa.

Jennifer’s place is fantastic. It's well stocked with everything you need, from cooking a meal to doing some snorkeling. The pictures don't do it justice. The added bonus is the view. I highly recommend you stay.

Great Beach Getaway

We were very pleased with this rental. We arrived in Nassau and our previously booked rental did not work out and so we searched on VRBO and the owners were VERY responsive and we were able to book and drive right there. The location is great and is in a more residential area; however, had all the things we needed. A restaurant on site, excursion bookings, car rental, etc. The house was also great and very clean. We did not have any issues; however, the property manager also seemed very responsive if we would have had an issue. The house is also right on the water and made it very nice to be able to step right out the backdoor and onto the beach. Would definitely stay here again!

Luxury beachfront break!

We had a wonderful 10 day stay in August. Communication with the owner and property manager was fast and easy. The property is directly on the beach and the views are stunning! There are many wonderful restaurants nearby and the unit is well stocked. We loved sitting on the deck while the kids played in the surf and sand. I would recommend getting a car if you plan to your the island. We really enjoyed driving around the island. Thanks for a wonderful stay. We will be back!

Perpetual June … didn’t want to leave.

The villa was amazing. From the minute we opened the front door & the kids 1st reaction was OMG, this is beautiful, the beach doesn’t look real. About a 30 minute drive from the airport, we rented a car and used WAZE to get around cautiously since they drive on the left. The villa is updated and spacious with plenty of room in the living & dining room areas. Kitchen was well stocked with plenty of dishes, pots, glasses etc… Solid WiFi service as I did a little work remotely. The sand & ocean are literally right out the back oversized glass doors. With plenty of seating, loungers and an outdoor shower to wash the sand off. Some parts of the beach swimming area were a little rocky as you walk into the water. Wish I had packed my water shoes, but limited sections of the rocky floor were more annoying….didn’t keep us from enjoying. Gated community, felt very secure & safe. The adjacent marina made for an excellent 1 mile morning walk from the villa and loop around the marina dock. Grocery store nearby (groceries are expensive). The marina has a little coffee, sandwich shop with a few necessities if you need to pick up some drinks or snacks. The Pink Octopus at the marina had a good menu with a nice range of options. (Pizza, salads, hamburgers & seafood). The host (Jennifer) was very quick to answer my questions before & during the trip. Andrea the villa manger was also very responsive and extremely helpful. Would definitely rebook and highly recommend with no hesitation.

Very private feeling beach area adjacent to a beach club with pool, bar and restaurant. Lots of nice amenities included in home like masks, snorkels, tennis rackets.

Beautiful Property on the Beach

Loved this Property!! Would definitely rent this home again. The view is breathtaking and the beach feels like your on a private island. The property is a 24-hour manned gated community. The home had all the amenities that one would need. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were nice. The kitchen is fully stocked and the appliances appear fairly new. There is plenty of seating area inside the home and outside on the patio and upstairs balcony. The food at the Pink Octopus (on the property) was totally acceptable. We took a charter out and had a short walk from the property to the marina. Jennifer (owner) and Andrea (property mgr) were very prompt with communication. The property is centrally located to the airport and Paradise Island. The perfect home for the vacation to relax, unwind, create memories with loved ones and enjoy the beach!
