The Bahamas is famous for its white sandy beaches. And at Manor of Love, you have lots of it! It a few feet just outside your door. Love Beach is as beautiful as beaches get, with colorful turquoise water! Relax and enjoy the waters, or swim, snorkel and have some plain old fun!
Manor of Love is located just minutes away from Nassau International Airport.
If you are looking for a vacation where you won't have to be bothered by so many other visitors to our Island, this is the place for you. While there are other long term tenants on the property including the owner, there are only three short term rental facilities. The beach is the perfect place to simply be away from it all - the hustle and bustle of normal city life.
For those visiting Nassau for the very first time there's lots to see. Take a drive along the northern coast of the Island and visit the Fish Fry, a 'must do' for all visitors. At the Fish Fry you will experience genuine 'down home' cooking in a very Bahamian setting. Continue your drive on into down town Nassau and visit the local Straw Market, where hats and bags and much more of hand woven straw items can be purchased. Or visit the many duty free shops here in the city.
A visit to the Atlantis is also a site to see.
But then again, you may simply want to be away from it all - away from it all to enjoy some R & R with your spouse or children. If that's you and what you seek to enjoy, Manor of Love is definitely the place for you. At Manor of Love you will be away from the hoopla and crowded beaches. You may perhaps even have the chance of enjoying the beach alone! It's all possible!

Why the Owner Chose Nassau
In 2004 we bought this building to live in, with the view to develop the property later. This was the first short term vacation rental unit. Now it is one of 4 units.
The Unique Benefits at this Apartment
This property is gated and is bounded by West Bay Street (the main road of Nassau running on the northern coast) on the south and Love Beach to the North. Love Beach is considered one of Nassau's finest beaches. The property is on the beach itself.
Located on Love Beach - one of Nassau's finest beaches. Just 3 miles away from Lynden Pindling International Airport.
Owner's Map of Nassau
Timothy & Linda Treco were both born and raised in the Bahamas. We have have been blessed with 4 children. Unlike most vacation rental properties, we live on the property - so we are almost always on hand. This gives you that added comfort while being in a foreign country. More than anything else, we want you to have an enjoyable time of rest and relaxation while you are here.

We just returned from a great trip to the Bahamas and truly enjoyed our stay at Manor of Love - every time I say the name I chuckle (and the folks at Customs do, too). Our group of six (two children - a toddler and preschooler - two thirty something parents and two mid-sixty seniors) were very comfortable in apartment 7, which is on the first floor and has 3 bedrooms, two baths and french doors that open onto a small concrete patio directly bordered with grass and a white sand path that leads to the beach. It was the perfect indoor/outdoor environment for our diverse age span. The young ones could play outside within easy view of the adults. The apartment furnishings were comfortable, well-used and kid-friendly, standing up to the rigors of sand and small hands. The dining area was a little tight for six, but we figured out how to make it work well. The kitchen is fairly well equipped, especially for a frequently used rental. We even baked a cake while there! The location is superb on many counts. First, the beach is wonderful, and there are numerous beach chairs for ready use. The water is crystal clear with gentle waves and a few lovely small reefs within an easy snorkel swim. Since the beach is so close to the apartment, we didn't need to bring tons of things to it because it was an easy walk to return for lunch, forgotten towels, naps and such. Second, grocery stores are very close and incredibly well-stocked. We even found a full complement of gluten free foods! Heading out toward Lyford Cay, we discovered delicious cappuccinos at News Cafe and very tasty lunches and produce at Goodfellow Farms -- all within minutes from MOL. Timothy is an incredibly accommodating host, who picks you up and brings you to the airport, provides a quick orientation to the local area and offers some tips on where to find special treats such as the best conch salad. He also returned to the airport after dropping us off with a forgotten item - now, that's hospitable!

Nous sommes resté a Manor of Love du 24 decembre au 03 janvier 2011-2012.. Nous étions 7 dont 5 adultes et 2 enfant de 9 et 12 ans. Nous avons eu de superbe vacances..quel magnifique plage (la plus belle que nous avons vu a Nassau) Timothy est venu nous chercher a l'aéroport et est venu nous y reconduire lors du retour. Il nous a fait faire un tour de ville pour nous montrer les quelques épicerie et station de gaz. La maison est propre(peut-etre un petit coup de peinture serait a refaire) et nous avons eu suffisament de place pour 7. La vie au Bahamas est quand meme assez dispendieuse. Nous avons été a Stuart Cove faire de la plongée en apnée ,passé un journée a Atlantis et nager avec les dauphins a dolphin encounter(si vous y aller passé la journée la-bas a la plage..ce que nous ne savions pas..car juste les dauphins c'est 98$ et ce n'est pas tres long.)

We went to Manor of Love from 24 december till 03 january. We're 7 people in our party...5 adults and to child (9 and 12 years old). We had such a blast staying there...It's such a beautiful place to stay. The beach is so wonderful (the most beautiful beach that we saw in Nassau) We rent the car with Timothy, so we can go look around and see what they have in the area. We went snorkelling at Stuart Cove, spend the day at Atlantis and went to Dolphi Encounter.. Timothy was very nice to pick-up us at the airport and make a fast look around of the town to show us were the grocery store and the gas station was. The house was clean (maybe paint can be done) and we had a lot of space for 7... The temperature was so nice.. If you go to Nassau ,Manor of love is the place to stay...hope to go there again sometime

The pictures of this place do not do it justice! Granted, it looks nice online, you will be more than pleasantly surprised when you arrive. All the important things you are likely to forget at home are already provided, such as beach towels and toiletries.This is the best place you could choose for your stay on Nassau/ Paradise Island. I recommend it to everyone. Everything was well maintained. The beach is right in the backyard . Having access to a car is highly recommended as most things are in town. Getting around on the island is strait forward, although going into town during rush hour gets congested and backed up. Grocery prices are high on the island, but we found it still much more affordable to cook than go out. The Manor of Love is a simple cottage perfectly situated on a quiet strip of beach and removed from the hussle and bussle of town, but close enough to get there easily. Timothy and Linda were fantastic hosts by helping with airport pick-up and drop-off, showing us some local grocery shopping that made our stay very conveneint, and offering some local insights that made our sight seeing ideal for our family.Overall, if you like a quiet beach oriented vacation with nice renters - this is a great choice. Bottom Line This Place Is A Must If You Are Coming To The Bahamas... Also Try The Daq Shaq It Is Located by the caves off bay street very good daquiris and fun atmosphere. Also nearby is Traveller's Rest, where you can enjoy an amazing banana daiquiri and crack'd conch you have got to eat here good food and good prices. I personally want to thank the owner for his warm and friendly hospitality. I gave it 4 stars cuz i would of liked my own grill instead of having to go down to the beach, also some new lawn furniture would be nice, and some more furniture for the balcony, and maybe even a hammock...

Was very happy with the accomodations, made great use of the bbq grill, and beach was perfect for getting sun and playing in the surf. Quiet and not crowded - great for people that want to be away from big resort type feel. Owner was very responsive to our needs which was much appreciated. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

We had a great experience at this property. Everything is included, no hidden extra fees. This place has a great beach and is very clean. The apartment is spacious and easily accommodated 3 couples or 6 people. They think of everything. The vehicle made the stay much more pleasant. The owner goes above and beyond to make your visit enjoyable. Very organized in the rental process. I will stay here again and will recommend it to others. This is a great way to experience the Bahamas.

Our family of 6 stayed at Timothy's apartment in June 2011. What a fantastic location - maybe some of the best beach in the Nassau area. We took advantage of using one of the cars available and had no problems with driving to the grocery, to the Fish Fry and in to town. Our family loved the fact that we were "away" from all the touristy noise and conjestion. It was very relaxing. The bedrooms and bathrooms were more than adequate, everything was very clean and the just out the door was the sandy beach with wonderful snorkeling. The living and dining area in this unit were a bit small, but we were outside much of the time and this was not an issue. My only negative remark is that the kitchen was somewhat lacking in serving dishes and pots and pans and a few other basic items. But, on the positive side, there was a great grill outdoors that we used most every evening.

where to begin?you can not go wrong here.the house is beautiful with a magnificent beach right outside the door.everything is provided,spotless and just as described.what you dont expect is the exceptional kindness of the people starting with our hosts Timothy and his wife who are always available for anything.we were even given a guide tour of the area as soon as we arrived to get our bearings.having toured the whole island i can honestly say that the property is on perhaps he most beautiful beach of the island as it is almost impossible for other people to get there making it your own private beach with shallow water safe for children and white sand broken only by the occasional palm tree and your deck chair! having a car allowed us to also enjoy the evenings.if you go,visit Arawak fish fry on Friday or Saturday night go to Deep Creek and listen to the great live music of the Cool Survivors.they are great people as well as being great musicians.i could go on for ever about this wonderful place but you have to see it for yourselves as it is the perfect holiday place for anybody.

We stayed at unit number 7 for 8 nights. The view is incredible. You are ON the beach! Super with small children! The listing was accurate as well as the photos. The property is a little old and ok maintained. The floors, beds and bathrooms are clean. The walls/doors aren't that much and the same counts for the kitchen. The owner was very helpful and a very nice person. The car is a must and you can get it for a nice price as well! We do recommend this property! Nearby activities: Your own (almost private) "Love Beach":++++ Dolphin Encounters:++ ($98, for a super event) Travelers Rest restaurant:+ (good Bahamian food for an average price) Nassau: + (Stairscase/strawmarket/bay street/etc) Atlantis:- -, way too much money for an aquarium or swimmingpool or beach.

After staying at this rental in April 2010, we knew we wanted our adult children and granddaughter to experience this wonderful island and beautiful location, so we came back this year with them. It is a paradise and much better than staying at a resort. There were six of us in the unit and it never seemed to small. Even with our six year old granddaughter running about. The unit has everything you need and is clean. The apartments are furnished with good quality furnishings. The bath and beach towels are thick and good quality as well as the bed linens. The lounge chairs outside are nice and sturdy. There are a variety of pots and pans, dishes, and even spices. Outside there is a nice gas grill which the tenants share. The property is large enough that even with other renters, you don't feel like you are on top of each other. There is plenty of room to spread out on the beach and property -- and the beach is absolutely amazing! The Treco's are there if you need them, but you don't feel as if you are being watched. Our children, 26, 29, and 30 had a blast and didn't want to go home. They are all talking about us making this a yearly family vacation destination to kick off our summer. The use of the car is great for getting around, and I would recommend it. Especially if you plan to go out for dinners. And be prepared, food is a bit pricy on the island. As far as activities goes, there is plenty to do in Nassau. My husband and son dove with Bahamas Divers. We did the dolphin encounter at Blue Lagoon and it was a great experience. We all felt very safe where ever we went on the island and when walking the beach both in the early morning and late evenings. I hope you enjoy as much as we did!
