Cockburn Town vacation rentals

We absolutely loved our stay at Palm Villa on the island of San Salvador (Bahamas). The home was very clean, open, and airy and was exceptionally well stocked with everything one might need on their beach vacation. We were able to rent the owner's vehicle and that helped us get out and explore the island too. The outdoor spaces are immaculate and we loved spending time at the home as well as at the beach which is directly in front of the home.

Trying to visit the entire Bahamas one island at a time and San Salvador was stop 2. Everette and Shenique went above and beyond to make us feel at home. From the greeting at the airport, won't give it away, but it was amazing. We could not have asked for friendlier people. The property is exactly as pictured and the beachfront views were spectacular. We had a meal catered by Shenique during our stay and she and her assistant knocked it out of the park. Our boating excursion with Everette was excellent. The vibe was right, the music was poppin and the views!!!! Everette is extremely friendly and knowledgeable about everything we asked about. 10 out of 10 would recommend. Planning a return trip soon.

My husband and I stayed at The Bohemian for 1 week at the end of April 2023. The Bohemian is an amazing property! The pictures do not do this place justice, it is stunning. The rooms are clean and comfortable and most have an amazing ocean and pool view. The outdoor shower (yes, it had hot water!) is great for rinsing off the salt water. It's worth the quick trip down the rocks to the beach, there are overhanging rocks that provide shade. You just have to watch the tide if you don't want your things to get soaked. There isn't really feasible option for the property to be able to get beach or lounge chairs to the beach so I highly recommend that you bring some compact travel beach chairs with you if you want to hang on the beach (you'll likely have the whole beach to yourself). They are worth it as we have used them on several trips. Stefan is a wonderful host and chef! He also arranged a rental car for us and is a wealth of information about the island. We have traveled the Caribbean a fair amount and this is definitely at the top of our list of places. San Salvador is "off the beaten path" and not "touristy" which is what we were looking for. If you are looking for a relaxing place to with minimal people then this is the place.

We had a group of five adults. From booking to check-in, we had an easy go. The house is brand new and well thought out providing a first class experience. Situated on a fine white sandy beach of Snow Bay with views of several quays, we sipped coffee from the spacious and comfy porch watching an occasional kite surfer. We opened the kitchen wall to enjoy the subtle breeze and take in the stunning views from inside / outside. The house didn’t leave us wanting for anything (except more time). The cherry on top was the concierge service with lunch, dinner and excursions coordinated to explore and make the most of the island and the surrounding waters. My biggest challenge is deciding if another trip with friends or a family outing is next. Either way, I loved the house, bay, and island and look forward to returning.

Yes, heaven on earth exists, and I found it. Beautiful, welcoming, and so cosi and comfy. Surrounded by the peaceful sound of the waves and the birds. An absolute must (or should I keep the secret to myself .. ?)

this property is in a perfect location just outside of town just minutes away from Club Med having the golf cart makes getting anywhere a breeze the villa inside has everything you need if you want to entertain cook or whatever it's awesome!

We had a perfect stay at Sea Breeze. The backyard provides perfect sunsets and beach access surrounded by lush vegetation and coconuts. The kitchen has all the supplies needed to prepare meals and eating your dinner while watching the sunset on the deck. This house is situated in the perfect location close to two island grocery stores, liquor stores, the marina, and a few restaurants. The airport is also not far from the house. San Salvador is perfect for diving, snorkeling, and relaxing at the beach. Our favorite beach was Grotto beach just south from the house and easy to access. You can go out on fishing trip with Captain Bruce who leaves out of the marina or hook up with Charlie the caretaker. If you can, rent the kayaks and van from the owners. The van has kayak racks and you can drop in at pigeon creek and view sea turtles, young sharks, and baby groupers. Pigeon creek has a boat ramp for easy access to the shallow creek. This was a big highlight of our trip. We also visited Dixon lighthouse that is guarded by goats. Dixon lighthouse is a working lighthouse with a rich history. The people of San Salvador are kind and will help you with directions and suggestions, just ask them! The wonderful owners, Wally and Alex, were gracious hosts and will answer any question in a timely manner. Wally and Alex sent us perfect directions and suggestions on how to best enjoy our stay. They both ensured we had the perfect stay and we can’t wait to return to this special island.

The time on the island was just great and the house perfect for nature lovers like us!
