                            Dreamsicle was everything we expected and so much more. The house is stocked with everything you need and perfectly situated on the quiet end of the island, close to Tahaiti Beach, grocery stores and best of all, Sea Spray Marina and Restaurant. Being our first visit, we weren't sure if staying on this end of the island was going to be the best choice as it was described in the reviews as being "quiet". We were so very happy with this choice! While town is wonderful, the peacefulness of "our side of the island" was just what we wanted. The people of the island are so warm and welcoming. They go out of their way to make sure you are enjoying your visit at every turn. Junior and his wife, along with every staff member at Sea Spray, were so very helpful and kind. The food and drinks are just as spectacular as the setting! We had the same experience at each restaurant and shop we visited. By the time we'd spent a few days there, it felt like we were locals. We are so grateful we had this experience and were lucky enough to have the opportunity to stay at this precious home. We plan to return as soon as possible!

                            Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, romantic getaway, sightseeing, age 55+, tourists without a car, adventure seekers, girls getaway.

                            This was our second stay at Dreamsicle and it was as perfect as the first time. Everything went smoothly from the correspondence with Cindi to being met at the dock by James. The house is clean, well kept and has everything you need. It is well situated toward the south end of the cay (a golf cart rental is a good idea). The photos attached show exactly how the property looks. The only thing missing is the sound of the trees and ocean.

                            I have thoroughly enjoyed my extended stay at Dreamsicle. When my family was here, the two kids loved the loft with their own bathroom and so did the Adults! The layout of the house is very liveable for two couples and two singles upstairs! Completely outfitted for a "home away from home", with Atlantic Ocean views, and in close proximity to SeaSpray Marina, Abaco Inn and the beautiful Tihiti Beach, I would come here again. I rented a golf cart and a boat every once in a while. There is so much to do on this delightful island, there has never been a dull moment. From Island and Beach Hopping to meeting the friendly inhabitants, to napping in the comfy hammock, Dreamsicle is a definite Paradise Experience.

                            Owner response: We try hard to have the house outfitted to make guests have all the items they may need which now includes a generator! I love hearing that families have a great time on the island. Our caretaker is also wonderful and make the effort to keep our guests happy. Thanks for the lovely review.

                            My wife daughter and I spend Easter week in Dreamsicle and had a great experience. Although we didn't rent a golf cart, we had a boat tied at Sea Spray Marina and used it to get to Tahiti Beach (5 minutes), Hopetown (10 minutes) and all other islands from Big Guana Cay to Little Harbour. The house is located a short walk from a great surfing beach while a short boat ride takes you toTahiti Beach and Tilloo Cut, both having good snorkeling and fishing. Sea Spray is a 4 minute walk and Abaco Inn is a leasurely 10 - 15 minute walk. The house is very comfortable for 2 couples plus a child or two.

                            We recently returned from our firs but not our last trip to Elbow Cay and Dreamsicle. The property is exactly as described. Well maintained and stocked and located within a 2 minute walk to a quiet beach and close to Tahiti Beach. A very comfortable for couples or a small family. Correspondence with the owners was very good and the advice given was greatly appreciated. Highly recommended.

                            Owner response: It pleases me when guests enjoy their stay at Dreamsicle Cottage. We try hard to give people accurate info so you will be pleased when you arrive. The location on white sound is convenient to Tahati Beach and SeaSpray Marina. Just a reminder, return guest receive a 10% discount on your next visit with us! Hope to hear from you again.

                            Dreamsicle cottage was so cute and well maintained. The loft and bath uptairs was perfect for our kids. It really gives you the feel of being in the islands because of the brilliant colors inside. The location near SeaSpray Marina was perfect as we ate breakfast there, used the internet and sat pool side. It's a 4 mile walk to town (we actually did that) but golf cart to get around the whole island is recommended. I would definetely stay again in the future. It's also near to the sea and beach.
