Quick lovely stay
My husband and I visited the island to also see my parents that were staying in the Bahamas on their sailboat. It was a lovely property with vibrant coastal decor and all the amenities you can think of! Although the ocean is visible from the house, the beach access is no longer allowed at the end of the street which was a little disappointing however, with a quick gulf cart ride or walk you can still be to the water in no time!

Adorable Cottage
The cottage was so cute and clean! It had everything you could possibly need for a vacation in Spanish Wells. This house is actually just over the bridge on Russell Island, but the location is still great and close to everything. Audrey was the nicest! She was so helpful and we enjoyed getting to know her! Would most definitely come back.

Great clean property
Great clean property. Smaller living room/kitchen area but the porch/deck area is great and helps with space. Nice view. The location on VRBO showed the property on Spanish Wells but the property is located on Russell Island. Thankfully Audrey was available to lead us to the property because it was not close to were I thought it was. The pictures and setting were exactly as presented just a different location than we understood. Nice quiet neighborhood. There is a 200 cash cleaning fee to be paid on arrival. I asked them to stock a bit of breakfast food so we would have something for the first morning. They were happy to do that and I really appreciated that! Also, a fresh baked product was left on the table for us and it was scrumptious! We would be happy to return here.

Lovely Cottage on Russel Island
This is a cute cottage on Russell Island, just a few houses up from a shallow sandy beach great for kids and families. The home was nicely decorated, clean, the linens and bedding were fresh, kitchen stocked with some helpful cooking basics, the beach toys and kayak wonderful, as well as the hospitality from both the owner, Carole, and caretaker, Audrey. Audrey met us at the boat and helped facilitate a golf cart for us and had fresh bread waiting at the house for us; it really made the arrival process extremely smooth. One thing to note, however, is despite the cleanliness, the home as an odor (somewhat similar to stale cigarette smoke) that could bother those with sensitive noses. I addressed it with the owner and they noted they have and would continue to remedy it.

Charming cottage
This was the cutest, coziest house! It was well stocked with everything you need, including spices, shampoo/conditioner, and beach gear. It was beautifully decorated too. Audrey is a wonderful caretaker who picked us up at the dock and even baked us a loaf of pumpkin bread!! I recommend staying here!

Slice of Paradise!
This house was absolutely PERFECT in every way, and I cannot thank Audrey enough for her superb service and kind hospitality! She is by far the BEST caretaker I have ever met and attended to our every need/ request! The process from start to finish was like none other! We had constant communication with the owner, who is also awesome and always made sure we were well taken care of! The house is very close to a stunning beach that we had all to ourselves for the week! The house is so beautifully decorated and has EVERYTHING you will possibly need! This island is so welcoming with the kindest people and this was by far our best trip ever! There are so many special touches included in this rental, that make it the BEST of the BEST! It is located close to wonderful restaurants and shops, everything you need for a beautiful and relaxing vacation! Don’t miss out on the best rental by far! Thanks so much! We had the absolute BEST STAY!! Hope to be back one day soon!!!

Just what we needed!
I can’t say enough about Carole and Audrey; they are both amazing. Carole stayed in contact with me the couple weeks leading up to our stay, during our stay, and afterward. She and Audrey were quick to respond with any questions and willing to assist in any possible way. The space was clean, close to the beach, and had everything we needed. We hope to visit again!
