About Roy and Linda Pinder (owners) Dylan Pinder (Property Manager)
Roy was born and raised on Spanish Wells and Linda was born in a settlement not too far away named current. We both love to meet new folks and entertain. Roy sings and plays the guitar when he is not working as a commercial lobster fisherman and Linda takes care of the home when she is not preparing fabulous meals for their guests
Why Roy and Linda Pinder (owners) Dylan Pinder (Property Manager) chose Bahamas
Roy and Linda have always lived next to this property and this is where they started their married life together. The previous owner was a sweet lady named Mrs Marjorie. This is where it gets its name. After Mrs Marjorie passed it seemed only natural to keep the place in the family.
What makes this cottage unique
We consider all of our guest as our family. Since the property is close to our primary house, it makes it convenient to take care of our guests.

Exceptional!

A wonderful experience, great location great house the pictures do not do it justice!!
We love to Spanish Wells what a wonderful place. Nothing compares to the beaches here. Roy and Linda are wonderful hosts.
Reasonable price, excellent unit, bicycles and golf cart included
The title says it all. Nicely air conditioned, wifi works fine (those are the essentials for me). Golf cart a bonus. Unit is nicely located close to Food Fair for groceries, and Budda's bar and liquor store just a few blocks away. We really enjoyed the bicycles, our favorite trips were with them, explored Russell island too. We didn't use the sea kayak however next time we will ask Roy to take it to the north end of 28th street where we will try to paddle out to an interesting looking island (make sure you are very comfortable with water before you attempt that). At low tide at the north end of 18th street you can make a short swim to a sand bar which is pretty neat, go for a stroll on it. We will be back, I don't want to tell you the 4 nights we were at Spanish Wells because you may beat us to the booking next year. Ask Roy to tell you his shark story - unbelievable, yet true. Dave.
Best vacation ever!
Our cottage was adorable and we were very comfortable there. The owner was most helpful with anything we needed. We were warmly greeted and felt welcome all week. We will definitely be going back and taking others with us!!
Will go again!
We have been traveling to Spanish Wells for 40 plus years but this is the first time we've stayed at Aunt Marjorie's. Roy and Linda are teriffic hosts and the crawfish salad was amazing! The cottage was perfect for 6 adults. We enjoyed sitting outside in the morning and in the evening and the fact that there was a golf cart included was wonderful. Thank you Roy and Linda. It was a pleasure to see you both!
Great stay in Spanish Wells
Aunt Majorie's is the great location, about a 5 mins walk from the beach, 5 min golf cart ride to the grocery store and restaurants. As a bonus, the rental comes with a golf cart which made it very easy to get around the island. The cottage has everything you need to be comfortable including internet, BBQ, and plenty of outdoor seating for eating outside or even just sitting and enjoying the sun. Roy and Linda are great hosts - they made us feel comfortable right away, told us all about the island, things to do, places to see, etc. They are also close by if you need anything at all.
Simply amazing!
Part of the magic of Spanish Wells is the ferry ride from north Eleuthera. The 20 minute boat ride is the perfect way to disconnect from all your worries. Once we reached the docks we were greeted by Roy Pinder who made us feel right at home. A quick golf cart ride and we arrived at Aunt Marjorie's cottage, where we met Linda who made us feel very welcome. A Beautifull property, very well maintained. My wife and two young boys were in heaven. Roy and Linda are both great hosts and we leave this amazing paradise with great memories to last us a lifetime.
Thank you Roy for the music and Linda for the crawfish salad and Johnny cakes!! You were wonderful to our family and we hope to be back soon
Map
Spanish Wells is a unique, quaint fishing village with a diverse history ranging from early pioneers looking for freedom to pirates and most recently hard working fisherman who love the sea. The only way to the Island is by water taxi and the primary mode of transportation around the Island is by Golf Cart. If one could describe the ideal setting for folks looking to get away from the hustle and bustle of life and yet experience worry free living it would be Spanish Wells. The Island offers great people, great food and fantastic fishing and diving opportunities. There is no better location on the planet for kids and adults to experience the beach and water without the crowds.
