Top position

This property in my opinion is positioned in the best place on the island. It has a great living area overlooking the water with a great balcony. High ceilings throughout which gives it a lot of space and it’s easy to find. The beach is great for walking , swimming and sunbathing. Thank you Peter and Pam !

Time off in Paradise

Great experience from beginning to end. Owners Peter and Pam very welcoming and helpful via email with local info. Violet, the property Manager super nice and helpful. She made us feel like we were old friends coming to visit. Any questions and she was back at you immediately with a reply. As Bahamians visiting one of our family islands, we are so happy to know that people going there will really have a good, relaxing experience. The view from the cottage was soooo beautiful. Suffice it to say Passionate Pelican was a little slice of heaven. Thank you Peter, Pam and Violet

This cottage was everything we were looking for!

Our trip started rocky with a delayed flight, but the island has a way of healing everything. Peter was an amazing host. He was very helpful with any questions and you can feel his love for the island. Violet is the manager, who is equally as awesome and helpful. The cottage is really something I could see myself purchasing in the future. There were no surprises. If anything, I was surprised I couldn't make it by myself to the outer islands while the tide was coming in lol. We had so much fun. It was secluded enough too, the vegetation is so high everywhere, there's so much to check out. Make sure you rent a car!

About the host

Hosted by Peter and Pam

Peter and Pam bought this property as a family get-away from winters up North. Our children are in University, and can’t spend very much time here, so we rent out the Duck and Pelican cottages when they aren’t using them.

Why they chose this property

The cottage is a 20-minute drive from Deadmans Cay airport and in a neighborhood of other fine homes. Flowers and palm trees line the roadside to the cottage. The nearest town is Clarence Town which is only 1.5 miles from the cottage. Medical clinics are located nearby. There are several island restaurants, a small store and bars located nearby in town. Local made fresh baked bread and other treats may be purchased at Ericas Bakery store close to town. Local people are family friendly and eager to provide answers to your questions. Items of interest are 2 blue holes, one at Deans Blue Hole (Turtle Cove) with one located right at the end of Lochabar Point Beach which is a short walk along the beautiful sand.

We recommended renting a car. The closest airport is Deadman’s Cay (LGI) 20km away. The nearest beach is Lochabar Point Beach.
