Location: Clarence Town, Long Island, Bahamas, Caribbean (On Lochabar Beach at Clarence Town Harbor)

Accommodations:  Vacation Home, 3 Bedrooms, 3 Baths (Sleeps 6-8)

Harbor villa is located on Lochabar Beach at Clarence Town Harbor, Long Island, Bahamas within sight of the Flying Fish Marina in a quiet tropical setting overlooking an exceptionally beautiful mile long white powder beach.

This new house is built at an elevation of 40 feet above sea level with ocean views from every room. The deck, balcony, covered porch, and all rooms are above the tree line to catch the breezes and for fabulous views of Clarence Town Harbor and the Atlantic Ocean. Three cays (small islands) situated between our beach and the Atlantic Ocean stop large waves and provide us with a gentle sloping, sandy beach free of currents and undertows. The calm water and long beach make this a classic. Lochabar "Blue Hole" is a short walk away.

Our house features three full-size bedrooms, each with air-conditioning, ceiling fans, queen-size beds, and private bathrooms. Large covered and screened entrance porch with skylights, ceiling fan, table, and chairs is perfect for outdoor dining or relaxing in the shade. Great for the infrequent rainy days! Large L-shaped deck facing the ocean, extending out 28 feet at tree level, is ideal for sunbathing. In the evening watch the full moon rise above the ocean. On the darkest night, lay on the deck and look up to see millions of stars as you have never seen them before.

Clarence Town, the capital of Long Island and the principle harbor on the east coast of Long Island, is one of the prettiest settlements in the Bahamas and has two twin-spired churches with a most interesting history as they were both designed and built by the late Father Jerome, an architect and religious figure known throughout the Bahamas. You can visit both churches and it is possible to climb the narrow passage up into the towers of Sts. Peter and Paul Catholic Church for a spectacular view of Clarence Town, the harbor and dock, Atlantic Ocean, and the Lochabar Beach area and cays.

A bicycle ride to the dock and through the friendly community is time well spent. We have three adult bikes and two children's bikes for this outing or you can kayak into town with our two one-person kayaks or the one two-person kayak. Life jackets are provided and required for kayak use. Kayak to the marina and have lunch at the "Outer Edge Grill Restaurant". Long Island is for adventurous type people who love remote places or who just want to relax and read. The possibilities are endless - you will need more time.

  • Ron & Deb, thank you for sharing your beautiful home with us. Your caretaker, Nancy was wonderful. We were picked up at the airport and stopped at the grocery store for food, beverages, and spirits. Upon arriving at the house we were instantly pleased. You never know what you rented until you are there. We love the house. I think our favorite during the day was the huge deck, followed by the sunroom in the evenings. It was so nice to end the day falling asleep watching a DVD from your collection in the sunroom. We enjoyed renting the Kia too. We drove the entire island. Up at Stella Maris we found an entire ship on the beach. The restaurants were wonderful. The chef at Roudy Boyz, Bo was great. Max's conch stand lived up to it's reputation. The flying fish marina had great grouper sandwiches and conch chouder. We even stopped by the drive by conch stand and I got to clean a conch. We left you the shell! We did cook in two nights, we had crawfish! AKA, lobster, we got two 1 pd tails for only $18. that was a wonderful meal! I feel bad for people that go to Nassua, or grand Bahamas island to stay. That's not the Bahamas. A whole different and great world lies in the out islands. Incredible desserted beaches and very friendly people. We had a ball catching land crabs too. We've been to so many carribean islands, but never seen land crabs like Long Island has. On our second day we always had a bucket and dustpan in the car to scoop them up. Very good baked with rice! My only regret on our stay was we never used the kiyaks to go across the bay to one of the islands. The beach was beautiful and the water was so clear and warm. I see you have some openings in July and I may be in touch. Life is about creating wonderful memories and we would love to add to these. On a humorous note, we shipped 10 conch shells back using the mail boat. Everyday my wife looks for the two Kalik boxes we shipped them in. I keep telling her it could take up to three months. It's fun anticipating when the boxes will show up. Kind of like everyday is the lottery! I added a bottle of rum to the bar. We left some other stuff too for the pantry. Hope to visit your place again soon. Bob & Sherry
