Map & Owner's Profile
Year Purchased: 1982
Why the Owner Chose Nassau
We bought thi property because of its location in a nice neighbourhood and because the house has great character, with large room, back and front patios, pool and garden with fruit trees and native species which attract a large number of birds. One of its biggest assets is the central location just minutes away from the beaches, hotel resorts, restaurants, downtown area and other tourist attractions.
The Unique Benefits at this House
Guests can easily commute to all of the activities available in Nassau - Swimming with the Dolphins, shark diving, water skiing, snorkelling (we provide snorelling equipment), golf, etc. and then come home and enjoy the comfort and privacy of this spacious property, while cooking their own meals, or ordering a chef to cook for them. Many guests spend much of their time at home, enjoying barbecues at the pool. and the kids enjoy the large assortment of movies (both the Classics, Academy Award movies and the current best sellers). The house is well equipped with all of the comforts of home. It is a great way to enjoy a vacation on a budget since there is only a flat rental fee, with absolutely no hidden costs.
Owner's Map of Nassau
The owner of the property served for 30 years in the Ministry of Tourism and is fully familiar with the needs of the most discerning visitor.
The property was originally the family home in a lovely neighbourhood. Because of its size and attractiveness, it became the popular location for Family and office celebrations, pool parties, Sunday barbecues and other events.
Now that the family has moved away, and my daughter is away from home practising law in Nashille, I converted the home to a vacation rental so that others can enjoy this beautiful property.

What a vacation!

We just got back to Canada after our 2 week vacation to Bahamas. This rental was a great choice. The location was great, the house was just as described and just as the pictures show. We ate most meals at the house, the kitchen was stocked with everthing needed, sugar, spices, pots, pans, baking dishes, etc. etc. There were also many bathroom products available, soaps, salts, shampoos, hair dryers. The yard and pool were great for all of us (the pool was too cold for me, but that is nothing new). Angela was a great resource. She was happy to answer any questions, both before we arrived and during our stay. Angela let us use an extra car she had while we were there. THIS WAS AMAZING. We got to see the whole island! We got to explore every beach. Because we had the car we got to drove ourselves somewhere new each day. We did use the bus though and it was an easy way to get around also. We also walked to Saunders Beach (easy 15 minute walk). So if driving is not your thing that is not a problem. There were 6 of us staying at the house, 4 adults and 2 young children. We had plenty of space, everything is provided for young ones, hightchair, stroller, crib. I cannot express how much we enjoyed all the thought Angela has put into this rental, provinding everything needed for a stress free stay. Pick up and drop off at the airport was provided by Angela, and she herself took us out when we arrived to buy some groceries and pick up some Bahamian fast food for supper. THANK YOU ANGELA, we will contact you again when we are ready for another Bahama vacation to one of the Family Islands. You will be our first resource for information and contacts.

My family of four just returned from a week's stay at this incredible property. This house is all that is advertised, and more. Angela greeted us with open arms and was incredibly accommodating from the moment we arrived. She took us to the grocery store, showed us around, and gave my husband a driving lesson on roundabouts and driving on the left, so we could get oriented. She supplied us with fresh bananas, coconuts, and guineps to enhance our island stay. Everything you could need was available at the house, which was spotless and very roomy. The outdoor area and pool was very nicely maintained and we made use of the beautiful pool and pool toys every day. The added bonus was the car that Angela let us use, free of charge, the computer with printer (so we could print our boarding passes before we left), and use of the phones with free local and U.S. calls. We were able to save a lot of money on meals by using the barbeque and full kitchen appliances. This property makes a wonderful home-base with many activities nearby, but just far enough away from the hordes of people to enjoy some private time. The grocery store, Cable Beach, zoo, and downtown Nassau, are all just a short drive from the house. Even Atlantis was easily accessible from this location. The generous selection of brochures, maps, guest book, and Angela's suggestions made activity planning a breeze. This has been, by far, the best house rental experience we have had to date, and we owe it all to Angela's charm, personality, generosity, and attention to detail. Thank you, Angela, for a wonderful vacation.

Fantastic home with every convenience!

Some friends and I recently stayed at this home for a long overdue reunion. We couldn't have asked for a better stay! The house itself was wonderful with all the conveniences one could ask for - private pool area, spacious rooms, comfortable beds, air conditioning throughout and the generous use of the spare car (which we christened Nadine!). The "extras" that come with this rental - free calling to/from the United States, cable TV, a computer with internet access and a local cell phone - are phenomenal and truly make this a superb value. Our wonderful hostess, Angela, provided everything needed to have a perfect vacation with guide books, maps, advice and great conversation. Her attention to detail shows her dedication to making your stay the very best it can be! The location is perfect with downtown Nassau a short drive away (or easy to catch the bus) while also being close to all that the Cable Beach area has to offer. I have stayed at a few properties in Nassau over the years and this home truly stands out. This was the first visit for the three ladies I was travelling with, so I wanted our stay to be special. Angela and this home absolutely contributed to that. I will most definitely be staying here again!

The perfect vacation location

Review Submitted: 06/20/11
A recent 10-day vacation in the Bahamas was our first visit there and we decided to rent a house and invite our adult children to join us if they could. They were all glad to come and had a blast, both relaxing and sight seeing. I really don't think we could have found a more perfect location. Having a private swimming pool was great fun and we spent many happy hours there floating and soaking up the sun. Several beaches are within easy walking distance and downtown Nassau is just a few miles away, an interesting public bus ride for us mass transit enthusiasts. The house is comfortable, well furnished and plenty big enough for us all to have our own space and privacy. The grounds are well maintained. The neighborhood is clean and quiet. Safety was never an issue. Angela is a wonderful host who made us feel right at home. She was always just a phone call away if we needed her. This was a vacation none of us will forget. We hope to return one day, the sooner the better. I highly recommend this rental.

This home is very accommodating and convenient to Cable Beach and downtown Nassau. Lots of space with the 3 good size bedrooms. Everything was clean and reliable including the standby generator system for those brief losses of power. Each room has individual air-conditioning so as not to waste. The owner was very attentive to any needs.

BEST VACATION EVER!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

My brother and I went to Nassau for a five day trip. It was both our first time to the Caribbean so we were both unsure of what our trip was going to be like. Luckily, we found this place and the best host we have ever met! From the moment we arrived through the end of the trip, Angela took really good care of us. She was very attentive and always available to assist us. She picked us up from the airport, took us to the supermarket, gave us a surprise upgrade, a tour of Nassau and Paradise island, drove us to our ferry terminal, and dropped us off at the airport. Oh, she even gave us liquor as soon as she found out that we forgot to pick some up at the store. Seriously, how many hosts actually do all of that? As far as the house, it is certainly a great deal for the price you pay. The house was very spacious (inside and out). There is also cable, wi-fi, computer, printer, phone, washer, dryer,.. well.. everything listed on the site, it has. The beds and couches were also very comfortable. The kitchen was also great.. we cooked so much and spent a lot of time in the house because it had everything we needed. And.. the pool! Sooooo amazing. We used it every day. Overall, it was the best vacation we ever had. House was great and our host Angela was the best. I hope everyone gets to meet her and see for themselves. Thanks again for everything Angela. Until next time... Nina

Is her name really Angela and not Angel? After having stayed at her house and receiving a lot of help towards having a great time in New Providence Island I will forever call her Angel. Me and my family spent five days in her house in April. The house is well-equipped, very spacious, clean and has a high standard. We were very comfortable and didn't get in each other's way. Wish we could have stayed longer. We really want to recommend this accomodation.

My family and I had a nice first impression of Angela's home and grounds. The landscaping was incredible and alluring. The pool was clean, and inviting. Her home had all of the amenities needed to experience a fantastic get away. It was clean and comfortable. She also had a car available for anyone brave enough to drive. The pre-arranged transportation from the Airport to her home and back was definitely a plus. Our family made a great new friend in Ms. Cleare and we would definitely recommend her accommodations to anyone looking for a nice get away. She was a gracious host and we would definitely use her home should we visit Nassau again.

We were able to experience a very pleasant first visit to Nassau. The house was more than we imagined. We were able to walk to the beach in less than 15 minutes. Angela (home owner) has made sure her guest have all the comforts of home. We would definitely rent again.
