Baycroft felt like our home away from home. We really enjoyed staying at your condo David and as seniors it was a pleasant, unique experience and very relaxing. You can catch the jitney (bus) at the end of the driveway, a very short ride to downtown Nassau where you can shop, dine or just take in the sights. The Bahamian people are happy, friendly and helpful people. David we want to thank you for all your kind thoughts and help during our stay at Baycroft... Marilyn & Ken

The Perfect Spot

I have to admit I did not expect the condo to look better than the pictures posted. That's a main concern for booking condos online. I was amazed at how clean the place was. You did a great job with decor and furnishing it because everything was tasteful but still low maintenance and was very easy to clean. I liked the fact that the entrance was private and everyone in the complex kept to themselves. The location of the condo is perfect near everything and you can catch a bus in town from across the street. Communication and instructions from the owner prior to the trip was a pleasure. Your condo made my trip so relaxing and I will definitely recommend and will come back and stay again. Thanks

Owner response:Thanks for the wonderful words, Denise! You were a model tenant and we'd love to host you again on your next trip to Nassau!

Thank you for such a lovely experience! The condo is bright and airy, centrally located to the beaches and restaurants, and features a full-kitchen and work station. My husband has chronic knee problems so we really liked how the apartment is conveniently on the first floor of the building. Again, we appreciate all of your help and will certainly recommend this unit to all of our friends. Look forward to staying with you again next year!

We stayed at Baycroft for 2 month and we had a gorgeous time. Everything in the condo was as described and working well. You felt just like home. The owner was allways concerned about our wellbeeing and if there were a question, he answered it right away (email..). The apartment was very clean and well-maintained.

Owner response:Rolf, thank you so much for the kind words! Hope your trip back to Germany was a smooth one and we'd love to host you the next time you're back in Nassau! Cheers, David

Just stayed at your place for two months and wanted to thank you. The two-bedroom condo is safe, clean, quiet and conveniently located. My friends in Nassau also liked it as well. Look forward to booking with you again next year!

Great apartment, a little noisy

Guest: Traveler from Seattle (Seattle)
Date of Stay: 02/06/10 Review Submitted: 06/23/10

The Baycroft apartment is well appointed and very well laid out. The bedroom has a comfortable bed, and is well equipped to accommodate travelers. The apartment has good ventilation and light. The iron bars on the windows provide excellent security. The kitchen is reasonably equipped – it has a gas stove and a large “American style” refrigerator. The office was perfect – wireless internet, a keyboard, and a monitor! Great beach access and reasonably close to the shops and restaurants. The property management company was courteous and met me at the apartment upon my arrival. On the down side, the next door neighbor had a pack of dogs that howled every night. Even with earplugs, the noise was quite noticeable. Also on the down side, my security deposit was held for four months, there were no issues with the condition in which I left the apartment. The property management company was very good about returning my emails, and was appropriately apologetic and polite on each occasion.

Owner response:Thanks for your raves about the condo! We're so glad you enjoyed the king-size bed, work station, kitchen and more! A neighbor was renovating their ocean-view villa and the dogs were temporarily placed outside by the workmen. All is now back in working order! Look forward to having you stay with us again as you were a model tenant. Cheers!

This condo was absolutely amazing.(exactly as represented in the photos) The bed was top quality and very comfortable. Heather ,contact person there, was most helpful . The technology for my husband to do business even though on vacation was excellent. Carlita's on the beach up the way was a nice walk and delicious food. We would rent a car next time as we found the cabs expensive. Highly recommended Thanks David Scott & Sue from Canada

Owner response:Scott/Sue, Thanks so much for your kind words! Heather raved about what wonderful people you are and we can't wait to host you both next time you're down in Nassau. Cheers, David

Marvelous condo! Space to move around, fresh light colors, abundant greenery outside all windows, parking at the front door, remarkably near all downtown stores and Paradise Island bridges, yet the location is high-end residential. Easy to enjoy the town and restaurants; quiet and away from traffic when "home." A super place to relax.

Owner response:Dan, so glad that you had the perfect trip in Nassau! Glad to be your home away from home. We look forward to hosting your annual vacation down to the Bahamas each year.

What a wonderful place! And such great value :) With the condo located on Nassau's exclusive East End, it's surrounded by lush mansions that simply took my breadth away. Yet, the condo is so centrally located that it's incredibly easy to access the beach, downtown shopping and Paradise Island. The owner clearly took care in creating a space that captures the essence of the Bahamas, but also features updated amenities such as high speed Internet and a tankless water heater (love how it's so eco-friendly!). I'll most certainly be back and am already telling my friends about this magical place. Thank you ever so much!

A wonderful, special place that added so much to my vacation. I will most definitely return! I loved being right by the beach and also having a pool on-site. The condo is surrounded by beautiful, large homes and lots of greenery, so the view from every window is lovely. It was perfect to be in a very upscale and quiet neighborhood, yet have all that Nassau offers so close by. All this in a very clean, well-maintained and charming condo is a super combination.

Owner response:Ronna, so pleased that you enjoyed your stay in our condo. It was a pleasure sharing Baycroft with you and we simply can't wait to see you again next year.

A home away from home. If you are an adventurous traveler and wish to remove yourself from the hassles of tourist traps and inconsiderate guests then you will find this condo the perfect match. Situated several minutes by cab or a nice walk from downtown you are never too far removed from the center of the shops and restaurants. However in this location you will blend in with the locals and experience the finer things Nassau has to offer, the people, the food, and the culture. The condo is a perfect size for a couple or even just a solo getaway. The water is a very short walk across the street and there is also a private pool for the condo units. The office makes it a great place to handle those inevitable crisis's while on vacation. The kitchen, living room, and bedroom are all up to date, clean, and spacious. If you don't mind not having turn down service or your room being cleaned every morning this place is for you. Just minutes from everything with the peace and tranquility of seclusion! Life does not get much better than this.

This beautiful condo was less than a minute walk from the ocean. Walking a couple more minutes up the sidewalk along the shore led to some great local food that tasted amazing, especially since we sat on the beach while eating it. Also management was very friendly, suggesting restaurants, bars, and other points of interests. I miss it already!

Owner response:Thanks, Kelly! It was great having you as a model guest and we look forward to having you visit again!
