It wasn’t too close to to much but it was easy to jump on the car and get around . Very lovely place the water is gorgeous and all you had to do was walk across the street. Very nice host

We spent a week here recently and found it to be a great home base for exploring the island. Accommodations were clean and comfortable and the location was close enough to beaches and other areas of interest without the hustle and bustle of areas closer to downtown Nassau. Sandy and Sherry were a pleasure to deal with and the check-in/out process was easy. There is a smaller beach area across the street which is a great place to have morning coffee or watch the sunset. Love Beach is a short distance away (walkable, but we drove as we had too many bags and beach chairs to carry) and is a beautiful spot that was never busy. Would definitely recommend a stay at the Caribbean Cottage!

We enjoyed our stayed at Caribbean Cottage. Sandy and Sherry were great hosts and very informative. The welcome packet was helpful and the Primary bedroom and views were gorgeous. Our taxi driver, Fred, was awesome for our 5 days there. We felt safe during our stay, though it was not easy to walk from the Cottage as there are no real sidewalks or shoulder on the road to walk on. You could easily walk to a small patch of sand (not Love Beach) and Traveller’s Restaurant but other than that you really needed a taxi/car. There was a bus but we didn’t find enough info to utilize that service. The pool area was small, we preferred to walk across the street to the sand. Overall Sherry was a great contact to have during our stay and we enjoyed ourselves!

Overall, this property was great for our family of four. We had plenty of space and all the amenities to feel right at home. The ocean view from the balcony and upstairs bedroom was spectacular. It was just as pictured and was definitely a highlight of the trip. We also enjoyed being able to walk right across the street to get to the ocean. The host was very communicative and responsive. There were just a few slight drawbacks: 1- The closest grocery store is about a 10 minute drive away. We initially thought we could walk but its too far. If you need to get to the store, be prepared to have a car, take a taxi or hop on the bus. 2-The property host warned us that the metal shutters on the front door and balcony window should be closed anytime we left the property due to the risk of theft. We appreciated the heads up. It was just a bit jarring to lock down everything before leaving and sleeping at night. We never felt unsafe at this location. But security seems to be a concern, especially around the holidays. To be clear, these were just minor inconveniences. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and had a great time.

The Good - The house was a great home base during our stay. We spent our days exploring the island and walking the nearby beach. - Sherry (local host) was super responsive and solution-oriented. She totally saved our bacon on the last day when our rental car battery died and she immediately arranged a friend to pick us up and take us to the airport. Amazing! - Sitting on the deck listening to the waves and drinking coffee was a wonderful way to start each day - Bed was comfortable and the AC worked great The Not As Good - The house feels a bit like a dated rental. Holes in the walls where fixtures used to be but arent anymore. The shower curtain and rod are rusty and falling apart. The bathroom lights dont work properly (as noted in other reviews). No tissues or hand soap in any bathroom. The Surprise - The local host (as well as the owner) told us after we arrived that there had been a spike in crime in the neighborhood. As a result you must keep the hurricane shutters closed over the sliders at night while you sleep and any time you leave the house. There are also 4 locks on the front door that you are instructed to keep locked at all times. - It is important to note that we had no issues with crime and felt perfectly safe. This is clearly not the fault of the owner and I appreciate their efforts to make sure their guests are safe. - The safety measures were a bit jarring and came as a surprise. I am sharing them here so future renters know what to expect.

We stay in this area because it’s away from cruise ships and mega tourist that follow the ships . This place is older but clean and has the best ocean views from the master and balcony . There’s a small beach area down the street which we found quiet and beautiful. If you’re looking for a chill vacation this is nice . The ck in and ck out was very easy and host response was very quick if we had any questions .

Sandy was a very responsive and kind host. The home is absolutely beautiful and well stocked. I was relaxing to sit out on the large balcony. It was not far to the airport and nice restaurants. We had a great experience!

The house was very nice and spacious. It was clean overall and had everything we needed. The covered deck was a great place to sit and relax. There is a nice small beach area a short walk from the house. While we liked the quiet residential area the house is in (and the proximity to Stuart Cove’s dive shop), some people may prefer to be closer to the tourist areas. But there are several very good restaurants within a 10-15 minute drive. You really need to rent a car if you’re staying in this house. The local host (Sherry) was a wonderful lady and very helpful. There are just a few suggestion I’d make: 1) Add room darkening shades in the main bedroom. The room was quite bright early in the morning. 2) The lighting in the main bathroom could be better. Overall a great stay and we would definitely come back!
