About this property
Island Gypsy and The Penthouse, booked as one home. Sleeps 8.
Lo Key Villa is the two-story waterfront building at Lo Key Cottages on Coco Bay, Green Turtle Cay, Abaco, Bahamas. Two self-contained floors, each with its own entrance, living room, kitchen, bath, and large covered porch. One house. Two views of the same bay.
Families and two-couple groups use it as one house with a built-in split: kids or grandparents on one floor, everyone together on the porches and at the water. You get the garden-level bay and the upstairs horizon without booking The Beehive or the full estate.

The stay
Wake to sea turtles, spend the day on the water, come home to the porch. Multi-generational weeks work here because nobody is stacked in one kitchen. This is the original bay-front yellow house — not the 2024 Beehive next door.
Location
Coco Bay, northern Green Turtle Cay, North Abaco, Bahamas. Walk to the beach. Green Turtle Club / White Sound is the nearest marina landmark. New Plymouth for shops and dinner. Arrive Marsh Harbour (MHH) → Treasure Cay ferry dock → Green Turtle Cay.
Book this if
You want the original two-story house on the bay, both floors, for about eight guests.
Also consider
Only need one floor? Book Island Gypsy or The Penthouse. Want the newer 3-bedroom house instead? Book The Beehive. Need 16 guests? Book Lo Key Estate.

Fantastic Location

Beautiful views from the upstairs balcony of Coco Bay! We all enjoyed being able to walk across the street to the beach and see the turtles, rays and nurse sharks. The washer and dryer was great! Beds very comfortable.

Beautiful location and scenery

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful VRBO! The location is absolutely stunning, especially the peaceful sunrises each morning. The owner was very responsive and helpful throughout our visit. The only recommendation we’d make is to consider adding a generator, as we experienced a few power outages during the week. Otherwise, a great place for a family getaway!

Excellent location

Great location to feed turtles at Coco Bay. Visit Syd's for some squid and they will eat out of your hand. Gillam Bay was perfect for beachcombing and we found everyone on the island to be friendly and helpful. House was great for our family of 5.

Lovely escape

Our stay was very comfortable and pleasant . Everything we needed was provided. We loved sitting on the upstairs porch and watching the sunrise over the beautiful bay. Walking on the beach, seeing turtles and rays and stargazing in the dark were bonuses! Laundry super useful too.

Great Location

My parents were in the upstairs apartment, which is very nice! We were in the downstairs apartment...not quite as nice, but still a great place. My only complaint was the downstairs bathroom doors didn't offer much privacy! Otherwise...great location and nice, comfortable rental. Would definitely recommend!
Response from VrboOwner on 31 March 2020
Thank you glad you enjoyed and hope to hear from you again. The upstairs and downstairs units are the same size but as there is only 1 bedroom on the upper unit it is more spacious than the first floor which has 2 bedrooms and a shared bathroom .

Great house, Great location,Great views

We Rented the entire house for the week. The house had everything, quality furniture, cookware, comfy beds and pillows, plenty of towels including beach towels. Cons- No beach chairs, no ceiling fans on porch, weak water pressure. We have stayed at numerous houses over the years, this was one out favorites. Thanks James (owner)

Response from VrboOwner on 31 March 2020
Thank u guys it was a pleasure I use too have beach chairs but due to the climate they rust in a matter of weeks giving them an old and flaky look , I don’t mind guests taking the plastic deck chairs to cocoa bay , as long as there returned , Beach towels are provided even though theses disappear quite fast. The water is supplied by either the cistern or from the mainland, the cistern being on a pump has less pressure, the mainland has slightly more pressure and can be switched on by request. Thanks again

Lo Key Villa

I stayed at Lo Key Villa for a week over New Years with my wife, mother and 3 year old daughter. The location of the property right next to Coco Bay is stunning with amazing views and the beach just a few steps away. It would have been great if the house had included a kayak or paddle board to take advantage of this! The house is in good condition and is effectively two individual self sufficient homes, one upstairs and one downstairs, which was ideal for our situation. The local property manager was responsive to any questions or issues we had and check in was simple. Where the house fell a little short was in cleanliness on arrival and the wifi connection being poor. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would come back.

Beautiful location

Place is great as it was previously with a beautiful view. Only issue was the downstairs plumbing was constantly backing up. Went to town and bought a plunger and still backed up so contacted property person listed. Said she would send someone but continued. Her response when seeing downstairs was I hope you don’t have a “shi**y evening. Thought that was a little rude. But owners are great and accommodations are perfect otherwise.

Great place to stay

we really enjoyed our stay at this house . It worked out great for us because we rented a boat for the week and had a dock right across the street on the water . Beautiful view from the second floor . We had two families , one stayed downstairs and one had the upstairs. We loved Green Turtle Cay , go see the singrays and pigs !

Excellent getaway

We were able to rent the entire house which nice to separate from the little one for awhile. Full kitchen/bathroom on both floors along with patio was excellent. Quiet. Across the street from the bay which is great for snorkeling and cooling off. Nice location, not to far from town and centrally located. Easy parking for golf cart.

About the host

Hosted by James B

Host profile image
I’m James. I own and built Lo Key Cottages on Coco Bay, and I handle every stay myself. Before this I ran my own property management business on Nantucket for 20 years, so I am used to a high standard — houses ready, details handled, guests looked after. I’m on the cay often. When I am, I also teach yoga.

Why they chose this property

I built on Coco Bay for the quiet: ocean sound and sea life out front. That is why Lo Key Cottages is here.

What makes this property unique

Lo Key Villa is the original two-story house on Coco Bay: Island Gypsy downstairs and The Penthouse upstairs, rented as one home. I designed and built it, renovated both floors, and still run every stay myself.
You get four bedrooms and two self-contained floors, each with its own living space, kitchen, bath, and covered porch. Sleeps eight. Families and two-couple groups use it as one house with a natural split — everyone together on the porches and at the water, then space to spread out at night.
A garden path leads to the beach. Turtles feed in the shallows out front. Starlink, central air, a backup generator, dishwashers, and laundry are on both floors. This is the villa if you want the full bay house, not a single cottage and not the whole estate.
