Our house is perfect for those who want to be away from the usual touristy traffic - very quiet and peaceful, but close enough to hop in the car and be there in a short drive. Plus, Susan is a massage therapist and I live right next door! How convenient is that?? :) We will welcome you and make you feel right at home. We have a dog, Koda. She is very friendly and loves attention, but she lives on our side. Nothing in Grand Bahama is too far away. The included car takes you wherever you want to go!

Staying in the apartment was truly a home from home. Everything you could possibly need is provided, from phone, car, to plentiful towels, and starter pack. Our hosts, Susan and Ricardo also made us feel so welcome providing any information we needed. The apartment is enormous- so spacious and comfortable, having a porch and yard was so handy and fun! Banana Bay restaurant and beach are just minutes away by car, and Port Lucaya is also convenient. I would recommend the apartment as suitable for anyone and am talking to my girlfriends about a trip back without the family. Glorious Island and Fabulous apartment- what more do you need?!

I can't even begin to speak about how awesome our trip was! I am a descendant of Grand Bahama and went back home for our annual family reunion. We were tired of the regular hotel experience and wanted to be more relaxed and comfortable. I went with my two sons, my sister and her fiance, and there was more than enough room to accommodate all of us (the purple room is my favorite)! Out of habit, we went straight to the grocery store, to stock up on basic necessities and by the time we got to the rental unit, we discovered that everything we purchased was already there! There isn't anything that Ricardo & Susan hadn't thought of. My kids thoroughly enjoyed there DVD collection, and the pets were an excellent plus. Ricardo & Susan were very hospitable and they ensured that everything was fine throughout or stay. I can't wait to get back there, as this will definitely be our vacation home every year for our reunion trip!

We have rented several VRBO homes and apartments but we have never encountered an owner who was so helpful and attentive. Ricardo met us at the house and showed us around. He drove us to the airport on our last day. Ricardo let our kids (age 8, 7 and 2) feed their chickens, which they raise on their half of the backyard. Ricardo and his wife let us use their car, which was a very big help getting around Grand Bahamas Island. The car is old, but runs well. A lot of people we bumped into thought we were locals and I think it was because of the car. I know we got to see a lot more than other people we met who were shuttled from their resorts to their various destinations. The house is a duplex with owners (Ricardo and Susan) sharing the other side of the house. The house was spacious, clean, and well-equipped. Very well equipped and comfortable for our family of five. Ricardo and Susan have a closet full of beach toys for use. The location is a little out of town and certainly not on a beach (if that's what you're looking for), but it easily accessible to the main town (Freeport), various beaches and other destinations with short drives that are usually less than 10 minutes. Certainly the house is very convenient to most beautiful beaches which are out on the West side of the island. The house has all the usual amenities, a nice collection of DVD's for viewing, WIFI, cable TV (if you want to spend time on those things), and of course air-conditioning. Susan was out of town the week we were there, so we didn't avail ourselves of them cooking a meal for us or one of Susan's therapeutic massages. Overall the house is clean and simple and inexpensive. It's a little out of the way but everything you might want to do in the Bahamas. The owners add personal touches and make you feel very welcome, which is what really makes trips and places memorable. Staying at Susan and Ricardo's place is a wonderful way to see Grand Bahamas island.

If we had known how much we were going to enjoy Freeport, we would have stayed longer! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and having such wonderful hosts make a world of difference. The home came with the use of a car – a Volvo station wagon. We ended up naming her Penelope – a great car that you'll enjoy driving on the wrong side of the road with :-) She's an older car, so be kind, but she'll take you everywhere you need to go, and then some. Gas is a little pricey in The Bahamas, but the freedom of being able to drive about and explore is priceless. (Note: some of the excursions on the island will charge you less if you drive yourself there and they don't pick you up.) Food is also a little more expensive in The Bahamas, so if you don't want to eat out all the time like us lazy people, the house has a great kitchen equipped with everything you'll need to make a meal. They even provide purified water for you, although tap water is harmful if you decide to drink it. If you're concerned that the owners live right next door, don't be. They won't intrude on your day as much as you won't be intruding on theirs. If you're concerned it doesn't have a pool, you're being silly. You're on Grand Bahama Island with gorgeous beaches. Highlights of what this home has to offer: * full sized, fully equipped kitchen * cable TV and reliable Internet! * washer and dryer * King-sized bed in the master bedroom with great pillows (we only used 1 room of 3) * Volvo station wagon (Penelope), and she has a couple of beach chairs and umbrellas in the back * silence – the nights were so quiet, and we had no issues with sleeping in either even though the sun was up around 6am * no tourists nearby, which is a huge bonus for us This is definitely the place to stay if you want to get away from it all, yet have all the comforts of home you're used to. We'll be saving to come back for another visit!
