Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2005
My name is Michael Montgomery and I have been living and working selling Real Estate in Palm Beach and West Palm Beach Florida for over 30 years. I actually am a native
of Palm Beach, with my roots going back to the turn of the 19th century. I have a great deal of expertise in handling tenants and I turned to Grand Bahama a few years
ago and decided that I just loved the island and wanted to own there.
Why the Owner Chose Lucaya
I bought at the Coral Beach because of its fabulous beach and wonderful people who live and work there. The location is superb as it is close enough to the main attractions, but not right in the middle of everything!
The Unique Benefits of this Condo
There are many benefits to staying at the Coral Beach. First, the rental price far better than the larger Hotels just down the beach, although you can still use their facilities is so desired.
It is nice to have your own kitchen an not rely on Hotel food. Also you will be able to really relax at the Coral Beach and take things slowly.

Es war eine traumhafter Aufenthalt.. Das App. hat eine sehr gute Lage. Es sind wenige Gehminuten bis zum Strand. Zudem hat es eine super Pool-Bar mit tollen meals and drinks. Die Angestellten sind sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. In der Anlage ist auch ein kleiner Supermarkt vorhanden, welcher Cola, Wasser, WC-Papier usw. verkauft. In 20 min. Fussmarsch am wunderschönen Strand entlang, erreicht man auch Port Lucaya. Das App. war in einem sauberen Zustand und hat alles was es für einen Strandurlaub braucht.. z.B. Liegestühle und Kühlbox. Eine Klimaanlage, welche es def. benötigt ist auch vorhanden. Die Kommunikation mit dem Eigentümer hat auch tatelos geklappt. We will come back... asap ;-) Thank ya

A Week at Coral Beach

The plaque on the door said it all: "Welcome to Paradise". From the bright and clean Studio, to the best of the beaches we visited, to the kitchen provisions and linens (more than enough), to the storage, to the helpful and pleasant people we met. Tucked into the Southeast corner of the complex overlooking the gardens and pathways, it was very restful and relaxing to be out on the balcony. Just a short walk down the beach to the colourful Lucaya Market, the entertainment in Count Basie Square and the variety of restaurants was very pleasant, and the appearance of the Rays in the shallow water near the shore in the early evening was amazing. So too was the snorkelling at Paradise Cove and again off the sailing Catamaran out of the Port. The caves, pathways, boardwalks and beach at Gold Rock are another must see. As there was still plenty to see and not enough time to see it all, we look forward to going back and for a longer stay.

This studio is bright,clean with lovely decor. It is a charming property set in beautiful surroundings. The location allowed us to take maximum advantage of the pool and beach. We enjoyed the walk along the beach to Port Lucaya where there was access to restaurants, shopping and entertainment. We rented a car to travel to Lucayan National Park to see Ben's Cave and Gold Island Beach. Clear and efficient communication by the owner made the rental process worry free.

My wife and I spent a very nice week at this property which was nicely situated a few paces from the beach in a quiet area. The presence of a nice little bar and restaurant just off the beach was a very convenient addition. Port Lucaya was a 10-15 minute walk away and provided very good restaurants shops, and bars. The facilities were good and the apartment was very well equipped even providing a cool water fountain which we found very useful.. The owner resonded to our requirements very well . We would have no problem in staying there again or recommending it to our friends.

This is a fantastic property in a perfect location. We stayed here on our honeymoon for 3 weeks from 19th december 2010. The buildings and grounds are well maintained and clean. With garden and sea views from the balcony we were impressed with this spacious, clean condo. Everything you need is here to enjoy your stay. The pool area is clean and tidy and there are tables and sun loungers for you to use. There is a pool bar serving drinks and meals. The beach is a few steps from the pool area and has clean white sand and beautiful clear water. Staff at the hotel were always cheerful and helpful. There is a washing machine and dryer on each floor so no problem in washing your clothes. It is only a 15 minute walk to Port Lucaya with its bars,cafes,shops and restaurants or a short bus ride for about a dollar. Michael has been very helpful right from the start always prompt in answering any questions. We will most certainly be coming back again and would recommend this property to anyone, as long as they don't pick the weeks we want.

We enjoyed having a full kitchen and saved a lot of money by being able to cook our own meals. Very spacious place with all of the little extras, felt like home. We rented a car and felt this place was very centrally located to all the attractions we wanted to see. Easy driving to Lucayan National Park, West End, Paradise Cove/Deadman's Reef, etc. Fun to be able to walk to Our Lucaya, casino, and Marketplace from the hotel on the beach...easy walk and close to several shops. Very clean property and grounds, safe too! Nice pool, restaurant, and beach areas. Thanks for a great place to stay in Freeport!

Thanksgiving week, 2009

Review Submitted: 02/18/10
My husband and I stayed at the condo over Thanksgiving week and had a wonderful time. The location could not have been better, in the middle of a quiet beach, but close enough to walk to the restaurants and shopping of Port Lucaya. The best drinks and food were steps away from our condo with a newly opened restaurant/beach bar. We did not have a car and managed well with buses- the nearest stop was about a block away. The activities we bought included transportation to different parts of the island (snorkeling, kayaking, etc). The condo was well supplied. comfortable and cool. The staff of the building was very helpful and the building and condo were clean and well maintained. (no bugs) The owner was very easy to work with, responding quickly to inquiries. We definitely would stay here again and hopefully will be lucky to do so! Our time there is unforgettable, Thanks Michael!

The location of the condo was perfect, close to the beach, major hotels (Westin and Sheraton), casino and famous Port Lucaya Marketplace which offers plenty of restaurants, shopping, and live music on the weekends. You can also schedule there water activities, rent bikes, etc… I recommend the island tour, it`s about 4 hours long and takes you around the island. Overall, we had a great time in Bahamas!

Review Submitted: 04/08/09
We stayed in Michael's unit for 8 days in March. The kitchen has everything you need to prepare meals in. The bed is comfortable, there is a water cooler for fresh water, there are beach chairs, beach towels and coolers to use with was much appreciated. There is a wonderful chaise lounge to sit in by the sliding glass door. We had a nice view of the gardens and we could see the ocean from one end of the balcony. The unit is one from the front, which made it a quick walk to the pool or beach. The building itself is older and needs some repair in places, but overall is nice. The lobby is bright and cheerful and we were pleasantly greeted when we arrived. The grounds are nice with pretty flowering shrubs and palms. The pool is unheated and was cold when we were there, but the beach is wide, clean and very quiet. The water is crystal clear with beautiful shades of blues. There is a new poolside bar, but it wasn't open yet when we were there. We felt very safe at Coral Beach. The bus stop is less than a block away and we never waited more than 3-4 minutes for a bus to come by. Our favorite bus driver was Peter and he was very friendly and gave us his number to call him when we wanted to go somewhere and he would pick us up. He took us to the Wednesday night fish fry at Smith's Cove and to Garden of the Groves which is very pretty. We highly recommend Trikk Pony for horse back riding along the beach and "swim with the dolphins" which was a great experience. We loved our vacation in this unit at Coral Beach and hope to go back soon.

I had a great time here. My girlfriend and I rented a scooter and drove all around the island. The area was nice and the staff at the hotel were very helpful with directing us where to go. All you had to do was ask and they were glad to help direct you to a good place to eat or a nice spot for sightseeing. The room was also very quite and we were able to get some well needed relaxation time. I would definitely come back another time, and would recommend it to anyone who just needs to relax.
