Was as listed or better, beautiful location, beautiful beach people were very friendly, would go back in a heartbeat!

If you're hesitating about this beach house, don't. The views from this house were amazing from every room. The house had everything you could possibly want or need. The walk to the beach is down a short path - it's really not bad at all and definitely worth the short walk for those amazing views from the house and deck! We saw so many sea creatures at the beach at the house: lots of rays, many turtles, tons of fish, and even a couple of sharks! It was so awesome. There is a really cool blue hole right near the house to explore, and we walked to "Hells Gate" and saw so many turtles; it was unreal! This house is in a great location for restaurants, grocery, bakery, the marina, Dean's Blue Hole, and other beaches if you want to explore Long Island. We met so many nice people while we were there - everyone was so welcoming. Ron was great with communication and offering assistance. Nancy, the caretaker, had the house in beautiful shape for our arrival and was also very helpful while we were on the island. Ron's home is beautiful, and we can't wait to visit Long Island and this beach house again soon.

Great stay overall. We went on a down time of the island so we didn't see anyone on the beach at all! Location was great, beach was great, snorkeling wasn't much to see until you ventured out closer to the little islands and/or the blue hole near the house. Did see a shark while snorkeling though...that was a little scary but cool. For sure, use the kayaks to go to the little islands in front of the house at low tide...lots to see and really cool at low tide. House was exactly as advertised and very comfortable. Long Island was as well.

We thoroughly enjoyed our week at Ron’s house on Lochabar Bay. Nancy, the caretaker, was wonderful. She met us and guided us to the house the first time and was responsive to any questions or needs throughout our stay. The house is well maintained and was spotlessly clean when we arrived. We had everything we needed and more. It looks just like the pictures. It is a very short drive to the Erica’s bakery or the Lighthouse Point restaurant, “On the Edge.” We enjoyed the food at “All Under the Sun” as well. Ron has placed a binder on the coffee table with tide tables and much more information, details about places and times to kayak, snorkel, food options … and more. We visited Gordon’s Beach, but actually preferred the beach at the house. We had complete privacy and were very comfortable at the beach thanks to the sturdy placements for the nice new umbrellas, lounge chairs placed near the beach and plenty of beach towels. We also appreciated having the gas grill to cook out, the sun deck and other amenities. Nice house, nice location.

Great property, great location and has all you need to enjoy your vacation. This was our first time in the Bahamas and Ron, Nancy and Isis made us feel right at home. Thank you for such a wonderful first experience.

The listing was exactly as it showed. The view was breathtaking and we spent many hours on the deck and walking the beach. The neighborhood was very quiet. Water tasted great along with good water pressure. Kitchen is stalked well. The screened in porch was pleasant at night. We look forward to renting again! Quick note, do not buy liquor at KC’s near the Hillside Food, they are ripping off the tourists including us. Yukon Liquors is reasonable and has everything. Max’s and Seaside Village have great conch salad. Flying Fish has great fish and conch bites. Stella Maris at the north end has incredible food both at the pool bar and restaurant. Be careful at night on Long Island wild pigs like to roam.

The house was just perfect, with everything you need. Cozy house, and beautiful Lochabar beach just 100 yards down a tropical sand path from the house. Ron will guide you though car rentals or help make arrangements to have some pick you up or take you to the airport. If a quiet place, serenity and just the sound of the surf, birds, and the gentle breezes through the coconut trees is your thing, I’d recommend his house. We’re hoping to do again next year, ..just stay longer.

Quiet neighborhood, great views and a very nice house. There are no negatives with this rental.

The house was clean with great views and lovely beach access. Definitely one of the best beaches on the island!

Wow… everything was wonderful from Ron’s place to location to the most beautiful beaches we hav ever seen. Thank you for such a fantastic experience! We will be back!

My husband and I have been traveling to the Out Islands of the Bahamas for several years. We have traveled to Exuma several times, The Abacos and Eleuthera. This was our first time on Long Island and it won't be our last. The islands are all unique in their own ways, but there is something special... almost magical, about Long Island. It's full of beautiful beaches and natural wonders (Shrimp Hole, Lowes and Bonniecort Beaches, Dean's Blue Hole), but the people were all so very friendly and kind. We are from WV (US) and we are used to waves from strangers and friendly "hello"s, but not so familiar with that on the Out Islands. It made us feel so welcomed as we traveled from tip to tip over our 10 day stay. From Columbus Point to Gordon's Beach, it was all breathtaking and memorable. Ron's house is perfect! It is by far the most well equipped home we have ever rented. It was clean, well appointed, comfortable and those VIEWS from every room are absolutely spectacular. I will treasure those beautiful views in my minds eye forever. We really enjoyed the kayaks and kayaked across the bay and throughout the blue hole at low tide. We saw turtles, rays and even a small shark (from far away). We played Phase 10 at night while enjoying the view of a million bright stars and enjoyed walks along the beach at sunset. We also enjoyed the small library that is available! I found the perfect book and enjoyed reading it during our stay. Ron's property is perfectly located and I was super impressed with the variety in the grocery store (best one on any island) and Erica's Bakery was a hit with my husband! Lighthouse Point was a great place to grab a nice dinner and Gordon's Beach Bar was wonderful as well. We enjoyed getting to know the owner, Ernest! He was very kind and jovial and was happy to share all sorts of stories. We loved visiting the Caribbean beaches. Go to Galloway Beach (road between the two salt ponds) and turn left to experience the gorgeous canal and rope swing! That place is magical at sunset! Ron was always attentive in answering all of our questions and it is obvious that he goes out of his way to ensure that every guest has a comfortable, wonderful and memorable stay. Book Ron's place! Experience Long Island, Bahamas from the best place to stay on the island! Waine & Angie Nicholson

My family had a wonderful time in Long Island! The house was clean, had everything we needed, and great location on the island. Ron was great about quickly answering all of my questions before our trip. Nancy was helpful showing us everything about the house and telling us about things to do on the island. The beach in front of the house is beautiful! We saw several stingrays while there. We had fun walking down the beach to the blue hole and at low tide we walked over to Hell’s Gate. There were so many shades of blue! We can’t wait to go back. We would definitely stay in this house again. They thought of everything!

We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful, spacious and well-kept house in a spectacular location. We were given a wealth of helpful information and the house was organized and well-supplied with conveniences and amenities. The house manager was extremely helpful and competent - coming to our rescue when we had a rental car problem. We absolutely loved our stay and ate eager to come back!

If you're looking for a quiet respite from life then you've found the place! Long Island is one of the Bahamas hidden gems - empty beaches, unspoiled nature, and friendly people. The house is on a fabulous stretch of beach that's protected by cays. Everything you need for a kayak adventure is available - getting to the reef for snorkeling is easy as is going to the estuary. The house is located on the south end of the island which has all the cool stuff close by: Dean's Blue Hole, Galloway Beach, Shrimp Hole are all a short drive away. Ron has a car available that's air conditioned (you'll appreciate this!) and reliable. The house is perfect for a family vacation and has everything you need - lots of linens, fluffy towels, a fully stocked kitchen, and supplies for adventuring. Communication with Ron is great and he's easily available for any questions you might have. You'll also have a contact person on the island if you need something while you're there (Esi is super helpful!). We had a wonderful time and recommend this rental without hesitation!

Absolutely no hesitation in recommending this property. Amazing location, Amazing views , Amazing house!! Nancy was great and very attentive! Will defiantly be back!

Everything in this home was perfect! Our family of four (2 teens) had the best vacation ever. The kayaks, the deck, the landscaping, the spacious living area, the beach…..it was a dream! This is our fourth Island in the Bahamas we’ve visited, and it’s our favorite. Ron and his housekeeper Nancy are so welcoming! We can only hope we’re lucky enough to have a chance to stay here soon. Thank You!! -The Benson Family (Minnesota)

This is a fantastic location and property for a vacation. Ron is incredibly organized and answers all questions. Check in and drive from the airport was perfect with both Issi and Nancy. As for the property it is beautiful, is perfectly located and has everything you could need. We used the kayaks which was great and enjoyed the whole bay tremendously. Will be recommending this property specifically to friends and will rent again when we come back to Long Island. We really did not want to leave!! Great host and great rental.

Fabulous setting, fabulous house, fabulous host. If you get to stay here you are a lucky duck!

Total props to Ron for providing my family the opportunity to stay in his beautiful home. Everything in the property description was as described if not somewhat understated. It was the nicest home we have visited in the Out Islands. The views from the porches were breathtaking. Upon arrival, Ron’s home was spotless. Nancy, his house manager, gave us a quick tour of the property and even picked us up a few essentials because of our late arrival. Ms. Nancy is a gem and we appreciated all her help. Lochabar Beach is a hidden jewel in the Bahamas and Ron has provided his guests beach chairs, umbrellas, and several water toys to enjoy the area directly in front of his home. A short stroll down from the house is Lochabar Beach’s personal Blue Hole that you can visit. During the entire week we only witnessed one other couple strolling the sands near the house. So many nice folk on Long Island! We have been to several of the Out Islands and the people of Long Island are the best – so warm and friendly. Really enjoyed the folks at Gordon’s Beach Bar, Lloyd’s Bar & Beach Grill, Lighthouse Marina restaurant, and especially Seaside Villa Conch Bar near the airport. Unfortunately, we were only able to stay a week but I see another trip to Long Island and Ron’s Lochabar Beach Villa in the very near future. Again, Ron’s home was terrific with a fantastic view of the beautiful of the Bahamian waters. We are looking forward to our next visit. Geoff, Becky, Skyler, and Kaleigh

Wow. What an incredible stay. The house had absolutely everything we needed to enjoy our babymoon on Long Island. Perfectly situated in Clarence Town/Lochabar Beach area and convenient to everything you could possible need. We will absolutely be back!

Terrific home that is well cared for & has everything you need for a thoroughly relaxing vacation. When we arrived, Nancy gave us a quick bit thorough tour & we immediately noticed how clean & well stocked things were. We had no issues with the house, drinking water was excellent as was water pressure & a/c performance. Beach is a mere 2-3 minute walk down a tree lined private walk and wow, everything you expect in a beach - you can easily swim & stay here nearly all week if you wished. Stores & food were no more than 15-20 minutes max. away (by mandatory car). Nearby marina has very good food and is close, recommend Erica’s bakery in town as well. Recommend Under The Sun near Deadman’s Cay for a great boat trip & one of the few places to get coffee drinks. Please consider this house & island if you want to really get away & thoroughly relax - it checks all the boxes!

The Kuzo home is located on a beautiful bay, Lochabar Bay. The house is well laid out with windows and views from every room. There are lots of amenities, air conditioning, ceiling fans, spices, paper goods, beach chairs, umbrellas. We rented the car available with the home and had a wonderful time exploring the north and south ends of the island. The house was well managed by the caretaker, Nancy.

We had a wonderful stay at the Lochabar Beach House! There are spectacular water views from the deck, and from every room in the house. A short walk leads to a beautiful, quiet beach which is great for walking, swimming and kayaking. You'll find everything you need in this well-equipped and very comfortable house. The Lochabar Beach House is a great place to relax and enjoy beach activities, plus the location is ideal to explore the Southern end of the island. Some of the beach roads are rough, so we were happy we rented an SUV to get to uncrowded beaches such as Gordon's, Dean's Blue Hole, Galloway Beach and Lowes Beach. We had a variety of local meals and take-out from the new Gordon's Beach Bar, Max's Conch Bar, Flying Fish Marina, Erica's Bakery, Forest Take Away, and On the Go.

Ron’s property was excellent. Couldn’t have asked for better. One of the really notable positives about Ron’s place compared to other rentals in the out islands was the furniture. There are plenty of places to sit and hang out in the living room and all of the furniture is very comfortable. Ron was also super communicative and helpful. We’ll be back.

We loved our stay at this house on Lochabar Bay. The house is spotless and spacious. Nancy, the caretaker, does a fantastic job and Ron, the owner, is very responsive. Long Island is a great place to visit. We were there for a week and, from our base at this house, explored the north end and the south end. Some of our favorite things were: cliff jumping at Dean's blue hole, the view from the Columbus monument, floating off of Gordon's beach, and everything from the bakery in Clarence Town. Thank you for the memories.

This house is an amazing place to relax and getaway. Clean, big, good location, and great view.

We’ve been to the Bahamas many times but this house was our favorite. Fully stocked with all we needed. Beautiful bay and view. Lots to do or not do. Very comfortable. Will come again.

No words can effectively describe the beauty of this location and property. We were extremely comfortable for our entire stay. Ron and Nancy were excellent to work with. My only hesitance in giving this property a raving review is that it may reduce the ease of finding our desired dates for future reservations!

House is in best location on beautiful beach. Immaculate well maintained property that our whole family (2 adults and 2 teens) enjoyed. The view is to die for! Kitchen has everything you could need, lots of supplies (spices, dish and clothes detergent, hand soap, etc) there to get you started. We loved every minute spent here! Owner and property manager were responsive and great to work with! Can't wait to go back again!

My wife and I, along with another couple stayed at Ron's home along Lochabar Beach Feb 13-27. I will say the location is tough to beat. A short stroll down the sandy path to a wonderful stretch of swimmable warm water and a great beach for walking and exploring. Clarence Town with a couple good restaurant's and a bakery, was just a couple minutes away from the house. The house and the grounds are in terrific condition and the owners care for his property is evident all around. The house has a great setup with baths in each bedroom and a great deck and screened in porch for hanging out. It's condition shines! Views are incredible from every room. Kayaking in the bay was a real highlight. Ron was great to work with and his staff at the property were incredibly helpful and nice. The island itself boasts some beautiful rural regions, beaches, churches and the friendliest people you can hope to meet. Welcoming at every stop we made, which was a lot. The Cape, Stella Maris, Maxes, and don't miss a visit with "PitBull" near Gordons Beach. What a kick! Make sure you explore, take a eco boat tour with Captain Frances at Its All Under The Sun and experience all you can from this beautiful island. It's a laid back atmosphere that was more than welcome from the turmoils of today's world. Our thanks to Ron for providing his perfect house in a perfect location, and making this vacation stand out as fantastic. The Montana Crew
