Beautiful house… gorgeous beach ! We loved every minute of our stay! So relaxing and breath taking ! Daisy and Debbie taught us so much about the Island life! We will definitely book again next year … this place is so humble and rich with love and happiness from the locals! We wish them all well and thank them all for an amazing experience!

Orange Creek was a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the slow paced lifestyle of Cat Island….The beach was beautiful!

We had a great time!! Love the rustic Island experience

My husband and I spent our 35th anniversary in this unique, relaxing, peaceful home. Enjoyed every minute, the host was easy to work with and quick to respond to any question we may have had. The beach is amazing and Shanna's Cove is just a short walk away where you can enjoy a wonderful meal with great people. Thanks so much, Vic & Deb

Such a comfortable cottage on a gorgeous beach! Well appointed with everything we needed and great hospitality from Curtis and Jackie. Perfect getaway for a family that can handle the remote, rugged out-islands atmosphere. We loved every minute.

Super place Inside is outside Right on the beach Great hosts Loved it

We really enjoyed our stay! Cat Island offers seclusion and relaxation and it’s a wonderful experience unlike anything you’ll find on the bigger islands. We were warmly welcomed by the neighbors and by Daisy and Debbie, who even showed us a conch salad recipe. If you know what to expect with the out islands, then I can’t recommend this place strongly enough. We can’t wait to come back!

Wonderful host who quickly gets back to you. Beautiful house. A very enjoying week.

We treasure our week on the island and our hosts are part of the overall great experience. Jacquie and Curtis make everything about our stay feel like our home away from home. Can’t wait to go back.

We had a very enjoyable week

Our family of 4 (including 2 teenagers) had an experience of a lifetime at this very unique property. The beach is incredibly beautiful, and we spent almost all of our time there swimming, snorkeling, spearfishing, eating coconuts, kayaking, etc. If you like the outdoors and family time this is the place for you. The house is amazing. We also spent some time up the hill with Gabby and Frank at Shannas Cove. They provided us with some very nice dinners, as well as fishing and snorkeling trips. I highly recommend this destination but be warned, there is an element of roughing it similar to camping, or rather Glamping 😁

Jaqueline and Curtis were gracious hosts and allowed us to experience the most gorgeous place one can relax. The beach was secluded and had pink tones. The water was electric blue and sunsets were unreal. All the beaches were exceptional on the island. Cat Island is a friendly Island and a perfect place to relax. We found great Bakery's from Olive's and Elnor's place and always have great service from Danny King with the car rental. The 700 store is always helpful too! Great kayaks and paddle boards too. The accommodations included beautiful rain showers, a nice kitchen, a great outside grill, a huge outdoor deck space, and friendly assistance from Shawana, Jaqueline, and Curtis! This was the perfect vacation. Thanks again!

Owner designed one of a kind home on beautiful Shanna Bay. Owners next door and always ready to help. Wonderful stay.

Jacquie and Curtis have a beautiful home and we were truly grateful for the accommodations. The sunsets from this house were the best in the world! This house is directly on a beautiful beach with paddle boards and kayaks. The locals are very friendly and the Rake and Scrape Music was amazing. Cat Island has many beautiful pink sand beaches and exploring around every turn! Danny King was a great help with the history and car rental. Cat Island is a special place and we would definitely stay here again!

My whole family and I are absolutely in love with the place and the owners. Fabulous location, great place for families with kids or couples looking for a perfect gateway. Jackie and Curtis are beyond awesome, they made us feel welcomed and made sure that we had everything we needed (and we were traveling with a toddler so it wasn’t easy). We will be back for sure.

Everything was perfect! Jackie and Curtis made our stay very comfortable and welcoming! Cat Island is wonderful if you love an adventurous vacation!

This was our fourth visit to Cat Island and the first time staying in a private home. I loved everything about it from the owners, Jacqueline and Curtis, to the lovely folks who took care of us, Daisy, Debbie and Ricky. We love the location right down the beach from Shannas Cove. We could walk down the beach to Shannas Cove to enjoy the wonderful hospitality and fine cuisines for dinner yet have all the privacy and flexibility of enjoying our own cooking when we wanted. Without reiterating all of the other “spot on” comments, I highly recommend this home as a great getaway. Already planning for next year.

Loved the lay out with bedrooms and bathrooms on either side of main home, well equipped, clean and did I mention steps ( !!) to a beautiful beach, paddle boards and kayaks . Hosts Jackie and Curtis were so friendly and helpful. If you are looking for a beautiful tranquil setting you have found the spot!

My wife and I shared 10 magnificent days here. Jacqueline and Curtis are wonderful hosts!!! They made our stay a dream for 10 days. We are well seasoned to the Out Islands Bahama experience and just returned to Cat Island after a few years. We are so glad we did. What an excellent TOTAL experience…..the house, the beach, the people, the Island!!! We were greeted at the airport by Debbie who was gracious to take us to the grocers when we arrived. Jacqueline baked fresh bread for us and provided enough groceries for a couple breakfasts to get us started. Debbie and Daisy, our caretakers, were wonderful and sweet ladies. They stopped in daily and made sure we had whatever we needed. We enjoyed the friendship we established with them during our stay. Everyone made us feel welcome, safe and "at home". The beach was one of the most magnificent beaches we have ever stayed on and just a few steps from our porch. We enjoyed beautiful sunsets every night!! The house had kayaks for our use and that was a great plus. What a wonderful place to unwind, relax, refresh, renew and reconnect. Since our return home we keep saying to each other “what an excellent trip”. It’s hard to get our minds “off the island” (not that we want too)!!!!! Thank you again Jacqueline, Curtis, Debbie & Daisy. See you again next year!!! Mark & Lisa

Our family of four had a fantastic time at Jacquie & Curtis's lovely beachfront home. The house is literally steps from the most gorgeous beach, which we had practically to ourselves for the week. I think at most we saw 6 or 7 people on the beach over the course of any given day and the views of the ocean and beach are spectacular. It's on the northwest side of the Island, so the sunsets are amazing at the end of the day. We made good use of the kayaks and SUP's and our two children (ages 12 and 10), had the time of their lives. To quote my 12 year old daughter, "this place is better than Atlantis!". Jacquie and Curtis were amazing and were always nearby when we needed help, but never intrusive. They provided us with great info and contacts for excursions, where to buy food, restaurants, rental car... whatever we needed. Their advice was always spot on. As a couple of other reviewers mentioned, the house is within walking distance of two good restaurants, and the one at Shanna's Cove has a world class chef (seriously!) who also does excellent pizza and burgers. Cat Island is truly a hidden gem in the Caribbean: it's very safe, not over-run with tourists, has super-friendly, welcoming people, interesting history and yes, pristine beaches and gorgeous scenery. If you are looking to get away from it all and leave your worries behind, this is the place for you! The beach house is well equipped with everything you need and our kids loved having the room to themselves (the 2 bedrooms are separated by the kitchen/living room building). For families with younger children/babies, you might want to be all in one room, but the rooms are very large so there's plenty of space. We loved everything about our stay here and can't wait to visit again some day! My husband and I have traveled all over the world and it is rare for us to want to repeat a stay at the same location, but Cat Island and this beach house are truly the exception to that rule.

This was the perfect place for our family beach vacation. My family of 4 kids aged 4 and 22 months had a blast. The beach house has everything you need and is pretty kid friendly. We arranged to have a crib for the baby and used a pull out for our older son. The bedrooms are at opposite ends so if you have young ones you may choose to sleep all in one room. We did a combination of both. The living space is comfortable and adequate we enjoyed living with the doors open and feeling the ocean breeze. The beach is stunning! Pictures don't do it Justice. The kids loved it! We saw 6 people pass by on the beach on our busiest day. The beach goes for miles. We walked and collected shells and played in the ocean. Jacquline and Curtis were fantastic, kind and helpful. (Before and during our trip) As were Daisy and Debbie the ladies looking after the house while we were there. This is a special little island and can be what you make it. There are adventures to be had but you can also relax and watch the waves as the day goes by. I was a bit hesitant when booking as there were only two reviews but now I see there are more somlet that reassurance for you. This place is worth getting to even though it's a bit off the beaten path that is part of its charm. It was a great trip for my family and we hope to visit again in the future.

This home offers everything you need for a perfect stay on Cat Island - privacy, beachfront, seamless indoor/outdoor space, room for a family or 2 couples, kayaks, paddleboards, snorkel gear...and Jacque & Curtis nearby if you have questions or need anything. There are two places to eat just a few minutes walk down the beach in either direction. My husband and I stayed for a few nights and plan to return soon with our young children. It was a relaxing stay filled with as much adventure as we wanted - could sit and read a book on the beach all day...or add in some beach walks, kayaking, snorkeling, hiking, secluded-beach-exploring. This house gives you room to spread out, a fully equipped kitchen if you wish to cook meals, and the alluring sound of gentle waves. Amazing find!

well if you want the perfect beach house you found it and some of the nicest people the hostess Jacqueline and Curtis make you feel like a part of there family . Note! this is island life you could get used to. Our 3 year in 2018.

We have been going Eleuthera for years and finally found our home away from home. The location and house are more beautiful then any photo can capture. We LOVE Jacqueline and her amazing spot in paradise. Our family of 5 will be back for more fun and relaxation (yes, you got both here- thanks to wifi, cards, darts, kayaks, paddle boards, and TV)! iwanttomovein!

Our stay on Shannas Cove was all that we expected and more. We were greeted on our arrival by our wonderful hosts - Jacque and Curtis - with a very warm welcome which set the tone for our whole vacation. We shared the cottage with couple friends thoroughly enjoying the seclusion of the rental and the spectacular beach it was on. As were our hosts, the people of Cat Island were warm and helpful making our stay there even more relaxing. We will return sooner that later.

I still dream that I'm on Cat Island....What an amazing Cottage on an unspoiled island in the beautiful Bahamas. Crystal clear water steps from the house, we caught fish & conch, found amazing shells. We ate coconuts off the trees on the property. Jacqueline & Curtis were the best hosts, Jacqueline picked us up @ the airport, had the fridge stocked with food we requested and had us over their home for drinks. The house was amazing. Curtis did a great job on it. Cat Island is old school Bahamas, beautiful with friendly people. Our daughters (8 & 10) had the adventure of their lives...catching fish, land crabs, anoles & tree frogs. I would snorkel for conch & my wife would come out on one of the kayaks that came with the house & bring them to shore, later we would crack & eat them on the deck.....I really miss Cat Island.

I stayed in this cottage home of Jackie and Curtis's back in 2002-03 while helping to clear property that would eventually become Tail Winds Resort. This is a GREAT place to stay. Such a homey feel, with a perfect layout, on the best sandy cove that still offers privacy & quiet. Jackie and Curtis live close by and are the most warm and welcoming hosts while also leaving you to your privacy. The area is still the best on the Island for quiet/privacy while within easy driving range of nightlife and daytime adventure exploring. Highly recommend :)
