Summary: We stayed here with 6 people (group of 3 moms and 3 daughters) for our daughters’ senior spring break trip. We were looking for something that wasn’t going to be touristy, but that was every bit a paradise. This was exactly what we were looking for! Know that when you arrive, this is a quiet island that may not hold as many amenities as you may be used to….but it is so worth it. It is safe, quiet, and serene. I do have to say that Harrison, the caretaker, was unanimously the favorite part of the girls’ trip. The moms strongly agree!! He is an amazing, kind, and charismatic human that made our trip incredibly special. Stephanie has put together an informative packet that we found very helpful, but we did have one suggestion that we would recommend. When leaving the airport, there is a grocery store that you can reach by making a right. It is called Alvernia food store, and the atmosphere was friendly, and they had a much larger selection if you intend to cook at house. Within our group, we had some people that liked to explore, and some that liked to stay at the house. The house was amazing enough that you never have to leave if you don’t wish to. She also warns about the no seeums, and if there is not a breeze, you need to make sure that you are wearing a bug spray with deet. They are pretty brutal. If there is a breeze, you will be fine. We also highly recommend having Harrison cook for you as it was very convenient, especially on our first night. 100% recommend!!

Summary: If you are on the fence about the place, don’t be. The location sets on the most beautiful serene piece of land. If you want the beauty of the ocean and secluded feel of having your own quiet and relaxing, peaceful place than this is it. Yet, it’s within 15-25 minutes of places to eat. Everyone was very welcoming and it was very easy to get around. Dinner with Chef at Hidden Treasures is a must (order the mango daiquiri) and Fernandez Bay resort as well. The owner of the house was amazing! She responds very quickly and is very accommodating. Harrison is the caretaker and was so very nice and helpful as well. Things to know, be prepared for potholes when driving into town. We ended up making a game out of it. Also, be sure to stock up on groceries so you aren’t having to drive back and forth. The grocery is on the way to the house from the airport.

Summary: The house was even better than we expected! Mr king brought us homemade dinner on the 1st night after a long day of traveling, highly recommended.

Summary: The Point House is exactly as presented, incredible views and the cleanest pool we have ever seen. Inside was clean and was well equipped including a drinking water dispenser with 5 gal bottles which was very helpful. The care taker Harrison King was an excellent host. He brought us his fresh grown pineapples and watermelon and on our first night we arranged dinner that he prepared and delivered and was really tasty after a long day of travel. He also invited us to a "Farm to Table Experience" that he was putting on for some media people and the Ministry of Tourism at his farm that was really nice and we were very lucky to be included! He is also a great source of info about the island, culture and things to do. The Greenwood Resort had no guests but Pauline + Antwon still arranged for us to have 8 for dinner and music on my birthday with tuna steaks, was excellent! Beaches are crazy beautiful and all the people we met there were friendly and happy. AJ's store near the house is in the process of getting a gas pump installed and that will save a long drive. Olives Bakery is exceptional for bread! We made the trek out to Shannas for a Pizza which was super, but its a very long ride ($8/gal gas) Gilberts rent car great! We will be back and would rent from the Bannisters again for sure. Excellent communications, info packet and the best care taker ambassador on the island. Thank you Stephanie and Curt for sharing your beautiful place!!

Summary: Our stay was amazing. Harrison was very helpful any time we had a question he was quick to answer and help out. The view from the back porch is absolutely stunning. Every morning we would step out back and be able to see an abundance of life. We even saw a free jumping blue marlin from the house. The reef system outside the house is completely alive with all sorts of growing corals. Rarely do you find something like this in the Bahamas. The pool was extremely refreshing after a long day of fishing or exploring the island. We went down to the beach a few times and used the kayaks to paddle around the coral heads that were near the beach. If you’re looking for a top notch secluded house with stunning views, this is the perfect house for you! 5/5 would definitely go back.
