4 Bedroom Villa in Andros Town, Andros Island

Big Bamboo’s Boutique Villa & Waterfront Playground is more than an accommodation, it is an inclusive out-island experience for one group at a time! All you need is your pantry provisions, and Big Bamboo provides a shopping service to ensure your food and beverages are stocked at the Boutique Villa upon your arrival.
The exclusive Big Bamboo Villa has 4 bedrooms & 3 bathrooms, and is an exquisite two level building constructed on pilings, facing due North and overlooking the aquamarine tidal waters of panoramic Fresh Creek. Major features of our extraordinary island home are its custom design, collection of Bahamian fine art, local craft exhibits, hand-made cabinetry, blissful outdoor views from virtually every room, and creature comforts of island living.
Our "Bahama Room" is a great room, outfitted with a 65 inch flat-screen smart television with satellite service. It flows into a professional kitchen with full island seating, a cocktail bar with unlimited filtered drinking water and delightful dining area defined by a hand crafted Brazilian hardwood table.
Other architectural and decorative features such as vaulted ceilings with stunning fir beams, knotty cypress planks, recessed lighting, overhead Hunter fans, stylish lounge chairs and rattan sofas, complete the grandeur of this gathering space. French doors introduce infinite natural light, and opens to a 360 degree wrap around veranda where adirondack chairs offer rest to the weary, along with a tropical balmy breeze & swinging bamboo.
The interior design is customized with board and batten walls, ship panel chair rails, cedar trim and pocket doors. The walls are pleasingly colorful to reflect the spirit of the islands. Big Bamboo was envisioned to provide all modern conveniences in an remote island environment.
The Villa comes equipped with large capacity front-loading washer and dryer, a 450 pound daily capacity ice machine, unlimited hot water, as well as a pump house with dual soft well water reverse osmosis system and diesel powered generator, to sustain current during frequent island power outages.
Other features to deliver comfort to our guests, include zoned air-conditioning systems, built in surround sound stereo and speaker system both inside the villa and outside veranda, and high speed internet across the two acre estate.
Sleeping quarters at the island boutique villa are spread over two glorious floors of the spacious dwelling, and consist of four captivating themed bedrooms. Each room has smart TVs and sound bars, with high speed internet. The "Pilots Lounge" is the Big Bamboo music, game, DVD and book library, with a double futon to sleep additional guests.
The "Dolphin Room" located on the upper floor, is a master suite with queen size sleigh bed, adjoining a private bath with granite dual sinks, multi-head rain shower and a whirlpool heated spa tub. The villa's split design leads to the "Tuna Room", a cozy oasis with canopy queen size bed, and views of Fresh Creek waterfront through a vista of lush bamboo and palm trees. Next door, is the "Sailfish Room" with a cottage style queen bed that overlooks an exotic fruit grove and flower gardens. Both the Tuna and Sailfish rooms share a spacious spa quality bathroom with a large multi-head rain shower and granite sink, and have cedar lined closets, colorful linens and glass doors which access exterior verandas.
“Conch Crawl" is the only sleeping room situated on the lower level, connected by a spiral staircase. The room has two twin beds and a private bathroom with a cabana shower. It also has ground floor exits to the south-side gardens, north-side waterfront, and a fully screened ""Cigar Lounge" with a smart television.
Our Boutique Villa is connected to earth and sky by a cat-walk which leads to the "Chubby Mermaid", a bamboo shaded roof-top lounge. It is marvelous for private sun-bathing by day and celestial star-gazing at night. Down the "Chubby Mermaid" stairs, guests are guided towards a creek-side fresh waterfall pool, encompassed by tropical palms & serene surroundings.
Guests at Big Bamboo can stroll through our fruit groves to discover and taste organically raised Sapodillas, Carambolas, Genips, Cherries, Mangoes, Longans, Jujus, Lemons, Breadfruits, Custard Apples, Figs, Guavas, Avocados, Hog Plums and more. Big Bamboo’s chickens provide organic brown eggs daily.
Fresh Creek channels from the ocean, into a beautiful pristine tidal creek that becomes the major attractions for our guests throughout their stay. Big Bamboo's 60 foot T-dock provides a playground for fun and adventure, as well as a covered sanctuary for rest and relaxation. The water-sport loading docks provide easy access for paddle boarding, kayaking, floating loungers and creek snorkeling.
Our "Tiki Beach Bar & Kitchen" built near soft sand under swaying coconut palms, protects sun bathers from UV-Rays. An in-water Tiki Hut creates an opportunity for intimacy with an abundance of marine life, where guests can sit in the water and feed our resident sting rays and pufferfish population.
Big Bamboo has been established with forethought in capturing the magnificent sun sets over Fresh Creek, where the sun meets the water with brilliant colors and spectacular reflections. Whether guests are having sundown cocktails at the in-water Tiki Hut, swimming in the creek-side pool, or rocking in Adirondack chairs on the villa veranda, sunsets at Big Bamboo are extravagant sights to behold.

Summary: The pictures do not do this place justice. Kelly and Steve were amazing hosts. If we did not have it they did everything in their power to get it. Above and beyond our expectations!

Summary: If you've found this home and are considering it you should make the jump. That is if blue water, fishing (from the dock, bone fishing or offshore), snorkeling, spearfishing, diving, blue holes, kayaking and paddle boarding are your thing. Our group of 7 loved every minute of it. We were pleasntly surprised that it was even more beautiful in person than the photos of the property online. Kelly & Steve really have thought of everything to make your stay perfection. We were 2 families traveling with teen boys and we never once heard a single complaint from any of them. Our kids were in heaven. They caught dozens of fish from the dock, made sno cones, snorkeled from the pier, went spearfishing for lobsters, enjoyed the pool and hot tub and went to be so stinking tired every night. We loved it so much we have already reserved next year. If you are looking for a quality, off the beaten path experience then this spot is for you. Until next time Big Bamboo 💖

Summary: 9 months ago we started a search for a vacation property to celebrate our upcoming retirements and milestone birthdays with our family. We searched for a property that offered onsite activities and services to make our celebration vacation truly memorable while being away from the hustle and bustle of the larger vacation destinations. Boy did we find this with the Big Bamboo! To start, what a beautiful property! The pictures, while beautiful, do not do this place justice. The house is very well appointed, the views are incredible, and the sunsets are breathtaking! The property has everything an active group could ask for and the staff is always at the ready to find what you need and organize land and sea excursions you would want to do! And the staff....OMG, from the first contact we made with Kelly regarding this property, we felt the Big Bamboo was going to be a very special place. We were not disappointed! Kelly made the planning and logistics to make our dream vacation come true absolutely seamless. She is very, very good at what she does, especially her ability to turn the stresses of planning an adventure to an out island in THE BAHAMAS into a very fun and exciting experience from the day we first reached out to her to our final day when our Tropic Ocean Airways seaplane landed on Fresh Creek to start our journey home. Thank you Kelly for recommending the seaplane experience. Our family will never forget that experience! Captain Steve and his first mate/property manager Jerry truly took care of our clan with both land and sea excursions! Jerry, as an Andros local, shows and shares his passion for the area. He did a marvelous job helping our clan enjoy every moment of every excursion regardless of experience. And Captain Steve, thank you for your stories and friendship developed during those marvelous sunset cruises up Fresh Creek every evening! Kelly's recommendation to use a meal service while at Big Bamboo is not only spot on but its truly an experience you do not want to miss out on! We wanted to experience a true Bahamian experience while on Andros and K'lee (Kischdlee at K'lee Enterprizes) and her sidekick Rico brought that to our table with every meal they presented! Fresh caught lobster, Conch served every imaginable way, crab, shrimp, ribs, chicken and wild boar all freshly prepared and presented with love and care and with flavors that wowed our clan at every meal! Truly worth the experience and convenience!!!

Summary: This place was AMAZING!!! Let's start with Kelly and Steve. They supported us every step of the way! Kelly is very responsive and helpful. And sweet! We felt like we knew her already before we even showed up. She was there for any communication questions we had to grocery shopping to delays etc. Steve and the property manager Jerry entertained us by land and water daily. They put us on the fish, lobster, turtles, dolphins, reef, etc. Jerry even took my youngest out snorkeling on his back because he was scared of the reef! This house has everything. EVERYTHING! We had the most wonderful family Spring Break! We can't wait to do it again and share this wonderful place with friends and family.

Summary: Kelly, Steve and Mr. Big Bunny were beyond amazing. I cannot say enough great things about our experience. They were so wonderful to be around and great with our kiddos. Tropic Ocean Airways was fantastic as well. Can't wait to go back and see our sweet friends that became family!

Summary: From the moment we booked our stay until the moment we left, and even now when we reflect upon our stay, Big Bamboo far exceeded our expectations. The pictures cannot accurately depict the gorgeous property, expansive greenery, clear water and every detail lovingly in place. Our party of 6 was met at the Andros airport by our friendly cab driver and greeted at Big Bamboo by Kelly, Steve and Dino with ice cold beverages for our whole crew (3 adults and 3 tweens). From that moment on our time was filled with relaxing in the many lounging areas around the property, on the dock fishing, listening to music or swinging, floating in the lagoon, indulging in freshly made conch salad, swimming with the fish, enjoying boat rides on the whaler, making snow cones, sipping dockside cocktails from the Pirate Bar or on adventure with Steve or Dino. There was more than enough room in the house for everyone to have their own space. The beds, pillows and linens are lovely. There are plenty of decadent towels and bath products in every bathroom. Any appliance you may need is in the very well-stocked kitchen. Ordering groceries ahead of time is key, but if you forget something on your list Kelly and Steve will try to get it for you. We enjoyed two exquisite meals prepared by Miss Kischalee and all agreed we would have more next time! The giant ice machine and laundry facilities downstairs were two luxuries I appreciated the most! We cannot wait for our next visit to see our new friends, Kelly, Steve, Dino, and Miss Kischalee, next year!

Summary: We have stayed all over the world in many beautiful places. Hands down, this was our favorite. It was relaxing, beautiful and had animals!!! Our son, 7, loved feeding the chickens and giving the adorable cats treats in the morning. Every day a new adventure was waiting for him. Kelly and Steve, were exceptional from the moment of arrival you felt like you were being greeted by old friends you hadn’t seen in a while. Big Bunny made my son giggle non stop and he was just an all around good guy to be around. We fished, we made multiple trips down the slide until we were exhausted... when we retreated for the night Chef Kishalee made us an outstanding dinner each night. So my suggestion to you, don’t just go to Big Bamboo, run! ☺️

Summary: We had such an amazing unique trip for our family. Enjoyed the blue holes, learning to fly fish, meals from Mrs Keschalee, feeding the fish and chickens, and the warm weather. Steve and Kelly go out of their way to make sure you enjoy your stay! Kitchen is stocked for a gourmet cook and two grills outside. This was a perfect off the grid relaxing experience.
