Lazy Lobster is the most spacious of the island villa rentals located in the quaint and charming settlement of Spanish Wells Eleuthera Bahamas. Lazy Lobster is perched on the crest of a gently sloping hill. The beautiful garden at Lazy Lobster offers tropical plants in a rainbow of colors, a delight to the eyes. Lazy Lobster is located in a very quiet neighborhood in the middle of the historic settlement of Spanish Wells Eleuthera Bahamas. An easy breezy 45-second golf cart ride (1 min. cycle or 2 min. walk) from Lazy Lobster to the north will take guests to an unspoiled and uncrowded light pinkish sandy powder beach! Quaint shops, eateries, home bakeries, and the harbor are just a few blocks away, too. The harbor is a fun place filled with activity where guests may chat with fishermen and purchase the catch of the day.
Lazy Lobster offers a very spacious living room with French doors leading unto a covered front porch. The spacious and fully-equipped kitchen leads to the large dining room and onto the large back deck. Lazy Lobster offers a master suite with a spacious master bedroom and an ensuite private bathroom. This villa offers two more bedrooms that share another large bathroom. The covered front porch is a great place to relax at the end of the day and wave to passersby many of whom will stop to have a friendly chat. The back deck offers an area for outdoor dining and barbecue grilling. The private sun deck is a great place to read a book or do a little suntanning if guests choose.
Since Lazy Lobster is located on the crest of a gentle sloping hill, there is a seldom a day without balmy breezes, which means the villa is very comfortable most days throughout the year with guests enjoying open windows, paddle fans, and the fresh air. (There is also A/C throughout the house for those guests that prefer such.)

SeaVenture reviews:
"Can't say enough good things about Capt. Smiley and our snorkeling trip with him. He got a big cooler filled with ice & drinks, we brought along some lunch and snacks, and so began one of the best days ever. We went swimming with the pigs (amazing fun). We went to Egg Island and saw beautiful colorful marine life in really shallow water that the kids could really enjoy. We boated to other islands and beaches, had a beach picnic, found some conch, sand dollars, and amazing shells, snorkeled in beautiful sea gardens, and a couple of us were brave enough to jump off a cliff! I could go on and on, but shan't. We will definitely hook up with Captain Smiley again when we return to Spanish Wells." Michael Goodroe, CA, USA.
โ€œWe loved our day away with Captains Ron & Smiley! They took us to deserted beaches, amazingly beautiful reefs, and we even caught a bunch of nice snappers for dinner! They hooked fish for the youngsters and let them reel them in. They were very patient and accommodating. We saw beautiful starfish, a huge ray, many beautiful fish, and as we were going back to the dock at the end of a great day, we saw a group of dolphins - with mamas and babies. Wow what a day! I highly recommend a day away with Spanish Wells SeaVentures. It was the highlight of our trip!" Lorna Palowski, NC, USA.
โ€œWe had a great time exploring North Eleuthera with Capt. Scuba. Historic Preacherโ€™s Cave, other hidden caves, a magnificent blue hole, the truly amazing Glass Window Bridge, Queenโ€™s Bath, and he took us to pick fresh mangoes from his farms โ€“ delicious! Heโ€™s very knowledgeable about the area having grown up โ€œin the bushโ€! On a different day Capt. Scuba took us spear fishing. (Heโ€™s a local commercial lobster diver when heโ€™s not doing tours and fishing trips for folks like us.) We caught groupers, snappers, lobsters, and other fish on which all 5 of us feasted for days. All in all we had two great days with Capt. Scuba.โ€ Mary Monnaco, FL, USA

Summary: This house was exactly as described. The manager was VERY helpful in arranging transportation to/from the airport. They were very responsive during our stay too, and gave us some great recommendations that made our vacation better. We were concerned about being kind of in the middle of the island, but SW is so small, it actually turned out to be perfect. We were close to everything. Being on the beach would have been nice, but for the price, we found relaxing on the front or back patio to be just as relaxing.

Summary: I love this property so much! The Lazy Lobster really is the perfect place to stay if you have kids or are traveling with friends. The open floor plan, and the privacy is nothing short of wonderful. Communication with the owners and their response to whatever you need is met promptly, and friendly. My family has stayed here twice, and it has always felt like a very comfortable home away from home. ๐ŸŒดโค๏ธ

Summary: This was our 5th year staying in Spanish Wells, and first time at Lazy Lobster. We were a bit hesitant to stay there, at first, as we absolutely loved the house where we had stayed in the past. However, we quickly fell in love with Lazy Lobster and requested it again for next year, without hestiation. As indicated in other reviews, the house was spaciouis and clean, had everything that we needed in the kitchen, and the beds were very comfortable. It does take a bit of time for the water to heat up before you could get into the shower, but that was really an issue for us. The location is great - the house is locate in the newer end of the island, within close wallking distance of the Food Fair. The front portch is wonderful for having coffee in the AM, and the back is great for nighttime. As always, Lorraine is wonderful to work with. Our only regret is that we cannot stay longer!

Summary: The lazy lobster was everything we had hoped it would be. Just as shown in the pictures and description of the house. The house was clean, had everything that we needed in the kitchen, and most of all the beds were comfortable, we did find however, that it took a long time for the water to heat up before you could get into the shower. We stayed (2 couples) for the month of February and had a great time, we were able to keep in touch with family back home in Canada with the high speed internet. If you are looking for a destination to relax and slow down your usual pace, Spanish Wells is the place. All the people are so friendly; everyone waves as you drive around the island on the golf cart. The golf carts are all that is needed for transportation to get around the island; you can actually walk or bicycle to most everywhere. It is expensive for groceries, compared to the grocery stores in Ontario, we just made sure that what we purchased we ate, especially the fresh vegetables and fruit. The boats come in Thursday and Friday with the new shipments of food, so Friday and Saturdays are the best days to do your shopping, by Tuesday or Wednesday, bread, milk, and fruits and vegetables are not always left on the shelves. We began buying jugs of water for $2.95 and quickly found out how much water you actually go through in a week, so after asking around we were able to find a local who did reverse osmosis from their home and began buying our water from there for $.50 a jug. We also enjoyed going to Steveโ€™s place for dinner, Steve puts up a poster at the beginning of each week with a menu for Saturday evening dinner on his front porch, dinners were great, and good value for what you got, we brought our own wine and he supplied the glasses, top notch! Papas drive-thru ice cream stand was just around the corner, posters went up daily with the two homemade ice cream flavours, this is where we got our ice cream fix, as the ice cream at the grocery store was around $20 a tub. The beach was fantastic, just cannot say enough about how clean the beach was, one could walk and walk on the beautiful sand, even when it was windy the sand did not blow up into your face, was really easy to walk on, and when the tide was out you could walk out, what seemed like forever and it not be deeper than your waist. One day when the tide was out the guys decided that they were going to kayak over to Eleuthera, and saw dolphins and starfish, one of their great adventures.
