Belle Mason purchased this townhome in 2011
Why Belle Mason chose Freeport
We take pride in taking care of our home and our guests. Our beds and linens come from the USA so you have a higher quality stay. Grand Bahama Island is a hidden gem. It has numerous beautiful sandy white beaches and we see at least 3 shades of blue every morning when we go for a walk to Taino Beach. The people are so friendly and helpful, there are no language barriers and we feel very safe at all times. There is a distinct Bahamian culture and the people are very proud. It has a direct flight on Sunwing (peak season) and only takes 2.5 hours from Toronto, Calgary and most parts of the USA. You can also take a fast ferry from Ft. Lauderdale to Freeport which takes 2.5 hours if you don't like to fly or reside near the coast. We also see many Europeon's vacationing here and have said how beautiful the beaches are on our Island. This Island is quickly becoming the destination of choice worldwide. Most times there are seat sales which makes it very affordable to come for a long weekend. They take American dollar at par and this island has duty free/tax free plentiful grocery stores which make it very desirable for large families/friends to vacation here. The Island is appreciative for foreign travellers coming which makes for a great holiday when visiting Port Lacaya Casino, shops and restaurants located 5 min. drive away. It only takes 10 min. to tour all main attractions and the sea is a whole other world of exploration.
What makes this townhome unique
This home is well equipped with creature comforts for entertainment, every room has a tv,dvd if you want some alone R&R time. The family room has an entertainment centre, games, latest dvd movie library and for those less savy (like me) board games, cards and books.
Our home is completely renovated with stainless steel appliances, granite countertops and marble floor. All bathrooms are completely renovated with granite marble deep soaker tubs. Beds and linens come from USA so very comfortable!
We also have an 800sq. ft loft which has 2 queen beds and a large office with a computer to keep in touch or do business.
For the outdoors, we back onto a pool and canal which you can swim in both or go across the street to Taino beach (5 min. walk).
We are 5 min. drive or 2.5 mile walk to all the shops, restaurants/casino in Port Lucaya. It is so quiet at night that you can hear the ocean with the patio doors open.
Our family have told us how beautiful the breeze is here and there is no humidity from Oct. to March because we live so close to the ocean.

A Home Away From Home
I spent 2 weeks at Belle's very comfortable home with my parents in their 80s and young adult children. Belle has everything you need to enjoy your stay. We rented a mini van and kept it filled with beach chairs, towels, and very nice snorkeling equipment so we were ready to go. There were coolers and ice packs to pack drinks. Once a day we ate out but otherwise enjoyed cooking in the nicely appointed kitchen with a pantry of basics to use. The weather was a little cool but we had the pool to ourselves. My family bought frozen squid and enjoyed fishing for pan fish in the canal. Our favorite places were lunch at Banana Bay at Fortune Beach, snorkeling at the Dead Man's Reef at Paradise Cove, and the fish fry at Smith Point. The beds were very comfortable and deserve a mention. While Taino Beach is a short walk away, I recommend renting a car to see the whole island. Belle called several times to see if we had any questions or problems and the neighbors were available too.
Absolute great place, beach nearby!
Love love my visit and will return, no issues with rental. Isand is rebounding after the hurricane and things are getting better everyday. The people of Bahamas are beautiful souls, who are the epitome of friendly island.
Wonderful place Wonderful time
We had a great time. Dealing with Belle was very easy. She was very friendly and responsive. She called to welcome us the first night and later to make sure everything was going well. Verlene the contact at the condo was so delightful as well as her husband. The condo was as pictured, very well stocked and so comfortable! The beach is amazing. You can walk there in five minutes and there is a restaurant called Taino by the Sea. We had breakfast there every morning. It closes at 4. The water taxi is free right now due to the lack of restaurants currently serving dinner in this area due to the clean up from the hurricane but there are many choices at the Port Lucaya marketplace. You must go to the Wed. Night fish fry however on Taino Beach. It's a bit farther but we walked easily and it was such a fun night! I would highly recommend this place . There is a small pool on site and you can also sit by the channel. We spent our days on the beach but it was quiet by the pool and would be good for small children or late nights. There is a fully stocked kitchen and gas grill but we were four women on vacation so no cooking for us! Thanks so much for lending us your place.
Outstanding!!!
This house and property is amazing!! Everything we needed or wanted was available , very clean and well laid out and organized for use!! The kitchen is completely stocked to be able to cook anything, and the BBQ on the patio is fantastic to grill fresh fish! We were greeted and treated with warmth and enthusiasm throughout our stay and definitely recommend this property!! Belle and Mason have made this a home to enjoy, and their attention to detail is evident in every room!! Thank you for sharing your home with us!!
Best memories ever!!!
Thank you so much Belle for sharing your Bahamas home with us! We celebrated our 50th. Anniversary with our children and they keep thanking us for such a great vacation. The home has everything and more of what you need. We totally lived in the pool and all the great landscaping really gave you the feeling that this was just what busy people needed. The beds were so dreamy and comfortable , we just loved the feeling of sleeping in beds that were as great as our home mattress. The beach was beautiful , as was the pool at Tiano beach. This was our first time in the Bahamas and it will not be our last! Thank you Belle for all the memories that we shared for our vacation. God bless.
Great!!
This is a very well kept spacious home with lots of advantages such as a well stocked kitchen which includes a fridge, stove, microwave and dishwasher.
The adjoining living room and dining room provide plenty of space for entertaining or just relaxing with a good book. The bedrooms are all spacious and tastefully decorated and most contain a private washroom with tub and shower. The second floor contains the bedrooms which are situated in such a way as to give maximum privacy. The third floor is a beautifully large office/bedroom area for anyone requiring maximum privacy. This arrangement is ideal for close friends and family members who want to enjoy the pleasure of each others company while still maintaining as much privacy as they desire. It is situated on a quiet road yet close to the night life, if one requires a little more than total relaxation. There is a private outdoor sitting area, as well as a gazebo and swimming pool. In addition I enjoyed spending time sitting on the dock watching the water, and was quite impressed when the rented touring boat pulled right up to the house and all we had to do was hop on. The restaurants in the area are all top notch and service was pleasant. This is a great deal for anyone who wants to enjoy a vacation with family or close friends and I would definitely return and recommend the property to other people. The ownera are exceedingly anxious to provide excellent customer service and have definitely exceeded in this regard.
