We loved our time at this sweet waterfront cottage! The backyard and pier were favorite spots. The golf cart was invaluable for getting back and forth to restaurants and grocery. Loved our time in Spanish Wells!

A great house, exactly as advertised. Excellent WiFi, beautiful beach and terrific sunsets. We had an awesome stay!

The property was delightful!

We loved this property! The view and easy access to the private beach area was the best. Our 2 year old son loved being able to wake up and go swimming. We snorkeled several days and saw lots of fish, a large ray, and even a barracuda. Candida is very easy to communicate with. The golf cart included with the rental was another plus!

The property was fantastic, the small protected beach was awesome on some of the windier days. Candida the property manager was a huge help and has some great tips for the island. The island is a quiet less touristy island so perfect for relaxing. Would love to come back.

Gorgeous property with amazing views. We only stayed for three nights after our wedding, but we would rent this home again.

We loved every second of our stay. The house and property are well maintained and a great place to relax in the house or in the water.

Easy, everthing as detailed in listing, fully stocked kitchen, great location, Island stores have anything else you may need for your stay. Papa Scoops is the bomb

We could not have asked for a more relaxing vacation in a beautiful house and location. Candida constantly went above and beyond to assure all our needs and questions were met. We have suggested to all our family and friends.

We enjoyed our visit immensely. Russell Island is simply gorgeous. The little beach and snorkeling around the rocks there and then kayaking to see the wildlife was great. Additionally the golf cart was a great convenience. Two small comments which are easy fixes and would make the stay more comfortable. There was no Drinking water in the home. Simply providing a full 5 gallon jug and information where to get additional water would be so helpful. Secondly, a few extra rolls of toilet paper would be great. Visitors would appreciate not having to go to the store immediately after arriving. Instructions on where the market and the water filling station along with restaurant/bar recommendations for first time visitors would be helpful. We loved it and hope to be back soon!

Mermaid's Cove is the perfect location for when you need to just get away and relax. There's so much to see and do without even stepping off of the property. Always make sure that you have your phone/camera with you when down by the water because you never know what might go swimming by. Candida went above and beyond to assist us during our stay, we can't thank her enough!

Candida was great! The property was beautiful and clean. The Beach was amazing, we had 4 starfish that stayed the whole time we were there and saw a stingray one early morning. I can't wait to book a trip back for next year! Did I say how great and nice Candida was? She is very accommodating and helpful with the island!

The perfect balance of seclusion and easy access to everything. We loved all the nature in pelican bay right at our fingertips. Everyone we met was welcoming and full of helpful advice for enjoying the Spanish Wells. Cay Witness charter tours were simply amazing!!

This is our second time staying at this rental house. Like the first visit, we enjoyed our trip! This rental is clean and well stocked. The private beach and covered dock are awesome! We have already booked our third visit to this rental property. It is a slice of paradise!

My wife and I stayed in Spanish Wells again this year, (Russel Island, to be exact). We stayed on the North Beach last year., at Amberjack House. Mermaid Cove was an excellent villa to stay at, with your own private beach, porch , gazebo, and hammocks to relax in. Some interesting snorkeling in front of the neighbor's property and we even had a dolphin stop by. We didn't use the kayaks, but there's always next year. We love the fact that everything is a 10 minute golf cart ride away. Candida picked us up and dropped us off at the dock and all in all, I highly recommend Mermaid Cove and Spanish Wells, in general, for a relaxing vacation.

We found this property to be everything we expected. It was clean, comfortable and well maintained. The location, with its own private beach, made the trip extra special. The golf cart, which gave us access to the island, was an added bonus and made the trip so much more enjoyable!!

Love the island people. Great place for a couples or small family stay.

The kids had a blast on the little beach and the kayaks were great. Would definitely stay again. Thank you!

We had a wonderful stay here. The sunsets were stunning and the little private beach was perfect for our five-year-old twins to play on. Getting around was a breeze with the golf cart that was provided and everyone around Spanish Wells was very friendly. The house had just been updated and refurnished and had a great beach house vibe to it. I would highly recommend this property for a small family.

We had a wonderful time at this property. It was clean and comfortable for our family of four. The use of the golf cart was a wonderful added bonus. We spent most of our time in the water behind the house, swimming, snorkeling, kayaking, and splashing in the crystal clear water. The small private sandy beach was great, and the water is some of the prettiest we have ever seen. Candida was very helpful with arranging transfers with Pinder’s taxi service from the airport to Spanish Wells. She met us at the dock and took us to the rental. Since we were arriving on a Sunday afternoon and the grocery store is closed, Candida was kind enough to pre-stock our kitchen with some bottled water. We highly recommend this rental, or Candida! We had a great time.

a simple home with a wonderful private beach and dock. plenty of space.

Very relaxing stay. Candida had everything set up just like all the other reviews said she would.. Snorkeling off the private beach was a blast. Take the road all the way to the end of the island. There is a trail that leads to a private beach that is AMAZING!!!

This location was perfect for me...the beach goer and for my husband, the avid fisherman. Great location and well maintained. Candida was terrific to work with. Hope to visit again soon.

The beach front is beautiful and the location amazing. Totally relaxing experience away from it all. If you are looking for lots to do, this isn’t your island. But if just chilling is your thing, great. Next time we’ll do more kayaking.

Property is nice for hanging out. Generally well maintained. A definite plus would be to have some full size lounge chairs instead of just a couple of beach chairs to use. Enjoyed the kayaks. Can't walk along the beach from here but everything is within a short golf cart ride.

This was our fourth trip back to Spanish Wells, but first time staying at this location on Russell Island. The house was spacious and clean. Nice having a washer, dryer, golf cart and central air conditioning. The best part of this house is the backyard! The house has it's own private beach and it's big! The gazebo on the deck was a perfect spot to enjoy our morning coffee. The hammocks in the backyard were a wonderful addition and we used the kayaks almost everyday. There is some good snorkeling right off the dock, we saw an Eagle Ray, Sting Ray and the biggest Porcupine Puffer Fish I have ever seen! Candida was an excellent host and helped us at the last minute to book a rental car on Eleuthera island with no problems. I highly recommend this house and we plan to stay again on our next trip out to Spanish Wells.

This little gem is in the heart of paradise! Spanish Wells is a quiet island with all the infrastructure (reliable power & water, tv, internet, etc) without all the drawbacks of more tourist’y locations. Candida is a rockstar of a host who went way above expectations and was very flexible with our varying schedules. Only thing we wish was different would be staying longer!

We love being on Spanish Wells; it has conveniences and activities without being too 'touristy'. It would be hard to beat the accessibility and natural beauty of the beaches with their fine sand and turquoise water. Candida was a helpful and generous host in all ways. The cottage was clean and well maintained. We loved being able to step out into the shade or sun on our big deck with its comfy chairs and then move easily to the beach or into the water. The golf cart that comes with the house meant that everything 'in town' was close at hand. A wonderful vacation spot!!

Small 2 brm 2 bath property with gorgeous views. The outside decks were great with covered area. It is a 10 minute golf cart ride to Sanish Wells. Candida Carey was super helpful, she picked us up where we were staying and returned us to the water taxi on leaving. Any problems we had she looked after promptly..Highlh recommend her. Spanish Wells is unique and safe with very friendly people.but veryaid back. I

This is a cute 2 bed/2 bath home, but the features that really make it stand out from the rest are its amazing oceanfront location and its fabulous property manager Candida. The included golf cart is another bonus. The home is located in a very nice canal development on Russell Island and is is surrounded by large, lovely homes. The sunset views from this location are among the best on the island. Highly recommend!!!

The house and location are absolutely beautiful. My wife and I stayed 5 nights at this paradise and it was so hard to leave. Candida has everything so organized from pick up at the airport to the water taxi to Spanish Wells and a tour of the island. Candida was on a well deserved vacation when we arrived but her mother met us and had everything set up. She was such a wonderful lady. Showed us the area and took us to our house for the week. The first night there I could not figure how to get the TV on. Even though Candida and her husband just got home from their vacation they came right over and got it set up for us. When it was time for us to go Candida had everything organized again for our return to the airport. We had never felt so relaxed and comfortable. Nothing will ever compare to this vacation and thanks to Candida we have many happy memories to look back on. We definitely will recommend "Sittin On the Dock of the Bay" to our friends.....and we will definitely be returning.

We had the most amazing experience on Russell Island/Spanish Wells. The house was perfect for our family. The kids woke up and were able to walk right out back and swim/kayak while we watched them from the gazebo with coffee in hand. The inclusion of the golf cart was key, as that is how we made it around the island. Candida set up all of our transfers from the ELH airport which was so incredibly helpful!
