Amazing trip with my daughter. Would stay here again as a solo traveler, couple, or just two people. Very nice, clean, and all needed amenities were provided to make our stay comfortable.
Beautiful, clean, and had everything we needed to make our stay feel like home. The hosts are so helpful and friendly, and we appreciated the great communication. The separate kitchen with all the appliances required for cooking, as well as some extras like spices, condiments, and coffee were greatly appreciated. Great location convenient to beaches, groceries, and restaurants.

Hello Claire, thanks for the positive review. We strive to provide to our guests the comforts of home away from home so they may enjoy their stay. Hope to see you again.
We really enjoyed our stay at this apartment in the Cable Beach area! Very convenient location to catch the public bus downtown and go to the beach. Annick and her husband were awesome hosts! They greeted us when we arrived and even gave us a tour around the west side of the island! Would definitely stay here again!

Hosts were very welcoming and communication excellent. Perfect for a solo traveler or a couple. Very nicely decorated. They will even hook you up with a wondering lady to pick you up at the airport and take you on an island tour if you like. Highly recommend!
I highly recommend this place to anyone. The room is well maintained and everything needed for comfort is provided.

It was our pleasure. We aim to provide to our guests all the comforts of home.
We were pleasantly surprised to discover that Annick’s place has it all. Fantastic location , one block from the Sandaĺs beach, 15 min walk to Baha Mar beach. Restaurants and other shops are also super close. The appartment is very comfortable, tastefully decorated with all imaginable amenities. We were sad to leave. Our hosts were helpful, flexible and very friendly! Thank you for everything. We highly recommend your place!

Hello Lucia, we are glad Kestrel exceeded your expectations. We aim to provide a home away so you can concentrate on enjoying what the Island offers. We look forward to hosting you again should you come to Nassau again.
It was hard making up my mind if I wanted to spend more on a resort or finding a place that wouldn’t charge me so much , Annick charges 100

Thanks for the review. I am glad Kestrel exceeded your expectations and that the rate was affordable, We aim to please our guests. We hope to see you again.
Annick’s place was so very nice! It was beautifully decorated and had everything we needed. The bed was incredibly comfortable as well. We were able to easily walk to everything we needed. Annick’s attention to the little details was so nice. Everything was clean and new. Her communication was excellent! She even did our laundry for us! She and her husband drove us around to show us the area after our arrival, and Annick also connected us with Juliet, a kind lady who drove us from the airport to Annick’s place.

This property is perfect for two people. It’s all you need, walking distance to grocery store, multiple restaurants, cable beach and the bus stop. You can take the bus (jitney) anywhere far you need to go for only $1.50 (USD) per person and it’s super easy to use. We were connected with a local to pick us up from the airport and bring us back, so there was no need to rent a car!
Our vacation at Kestrel’s was very peaceful, relaxing and enjoyable experience. The property was located in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood with palm trees and beautiful flowers. The registration went smoothly from having transfers arranged, a House Manual with important information on house rules, activities, restaurants, grocery stores and beaches in the area.The hosts Annick and Barrington greeted us when we arrived to answer questions and made sure there was water, cooking essentials and much more. Annick and Barrington were “Super Hosts” who went above and beyond to make sure we were taken care of and to make our stay at Kestrel’s very welcoming. They also responded to our questions very promptly. We look forward to coming again.

Dear Kiana,
It was our pleasure to have you and your Mother, Delores, stay at Kestrel. Warmth and friendliness emanated from you both. We are pleased that your experience was enjoyable and that your needs were met. We look forward to having you again. Blessings!
Annick was very responsive from the very first message I sent to her (months b4)up to the last. She arranged for a fishing trip for us, a tour with an amazing local and pick up to and from the airport. She and her husband were very nice. The place was very cute and clean. We walked to Starbucks and to eat breakfast and dinner. They're are alot of places waking distance. You can also walk to the beach. Itwas very close. I will stay here again if/when we go back to the Bahamas.

Hello Kim, Thanks for your positive review. Our aim is to provide all the comforts of home to every guest and help them have an enjoyable stay.
Terrific location - walking distance to restaurants, grocery store, Starbucks, Cable Beach, jitney stops, Baha Mar, etc. Annick and Barrington were very gracious hosts who greeted us upon arrival and kindly gave us all the privacy we needed. Have stayed in many, many online vacation rentals, but have never had a cleaner and better-appointed apartment: in addition to all the kitchen, bedroom and bathroom essentials, it had many "bonuses:" a computer, beach chairs, beach umbrellas, beach towels, rain umbrellas, etc. Bed and pillows were exceptionally comfortable and the air conditioners were efficient and quiet. Entrance deck was a really nice place for a relaxing morning coffee.To be fair, a couple of very minor disappointments: 1) "washer" and "dryer" were listed among the amenities but were nonexistent (we would have packed differently as "laundry service," even free, is not really our thing). 2) Hot-water supply is very limited, resulting in very, very short showers. All in all, these were very minor drawbacks, given all the positives - and not nearly enough to rate Kestrel anything less than "5 stars."
Originally from Martinique, your retired educator and bilingual hostess has lived in Trinidad, Jamaica, the United States and has vacationed in England, Germany, Switzerland, France, Canada, Columbia and throughout the Caribbean. All of this travel exposure and her work in the tourism sector as director of training at Atlantis has shaped her understanding of visitors' needs, and she enjoys interacting with guests while letting them take the lead on how much interaction they wish to have. Her focus is to help guests have a hassle-free stay at Kestrel. She is particularly happy to give a walking tour of the neighborhood to guests who are up for it. Guests may expect to receive an invitation to participate in our family Christmas dinner.
Why they chose this property
Our beautiful coastal and touristic neighborhood is made for the enjoyment of visitors to The Bahamas with its stretch of sandy beaches, turquoise ocean water, stunning sunsets over the ocean, more than 15 local restaurants, the entertainment and phletora of eating venues available at Baha Mar resort and Sandals Royal Bahamian Hotel, public transit, medical/health support, grocery stores, shopping plazas, etc. Locals and tourists flock the area and patronize the restaurants and night-life entertainment. As my favorite exercise is swimming, access to the beach tops the list of my preference for my neighborhood.
What makes this property unique
The Bahamas being a high-end destination, Kestrel prime location next to West Bay Street where all the commercial establishments and hotels/resort and nightlife entertainment and the beach can be accessed on foot will make vacationing more affordable. The well-maintained property usually attracts compliments from pedestrians.
