About this property

Step from your porch onto the soft white sand & crystal clear water.

Rake n Scrape is a quaint bungalow on the beautiful two mile long beach of Spanish Wells. Evoking the feel of an old beach cottage but with modern amenities like air conditioning, TV and wifi. Enjoy your morning coffee or happy hour on your private deck overlooking the water, listening to the sound of the waves washing on the shore. You won't want to leave!
Many guests say they enjoy the enclosed outdoor shower so much they even used either of the indoor showers! The water is so clear with a soft, white sandy bottom that is perfect for swimming or using the included kayaks and paddle boards. In the heart of the quaint lobster fishing town of Spanish Wells, food and liquor stores are very walkable, but we recommend renting a buggy (golf cart) to explore the island and adjoining Russell Island. Lounge chairs, kayaks and paddle boards are included.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Clean and quaint accommodation in a wonderful location. It was wonderful to sit on the back deck right next to the beach. We used the paddleboards and kayaks every day. The hosts were friendly and very easy to communicate with. We can’t wait to return.

Could not have been more pleased!

We had never been to Spanish Wells and loved every minute of it. A large part of our enjoyment was having such a beautiful and nice place to stay. Everything about Rake n Scrape was comfortable and exceptionally clean. Just as seen on the listing...and better!

Pure bliss

This is our second stay at Rake N Scrape, and we are already looking to plan our next vacation there. The house has everything you need, the beds are comfortable, and the beach is peaceful. The property manager, Vince, was so nice and met us at the docks, made sure we knew everything about the house, and brought us the most delicious mangoes. Spanish Wells is a beautiful island, and we look forward to visiting it again.

Calm and Beautiful

We loved this darling cottage. The location was perfect, just steps from the most calming bay. Inside, the beds were very comfortable and we enjoyed the interesting and laidback decor.Vince and Lori were great. Vince met us at the water taxi dock to show us to the cottage and helped us work out a plan when our incoming flight got switched to a different airport. We wish we could have stayed longer.

Perfect beach cottage!

This cottage is absolutely perfect - decorated to feel beachy and fun and has all the essentials. The beach is literally in the front yard, and a sand bar provides the perfect protected beach. We walked the mile loop on the sand bar every day at low tide and at high tide. Vince is a terrific host and treated us to fresh coconuts from the property. The house is a short walk (or golf cart ride) from the islands restaurants and groceries. It's an ideal low-key beach vacation. We will definitely be back!

A perfect vacation

Lori and Vince are the most wonderful hosts. Lori took care of all arrangements for transport to/from the airport as well as helping us with a golf cart rental on the island. The property was perfect for 2 couples. It has a nautical theme and is very comfortable. Lori and Vince made sure we knew how to get around, find stores and restaurants. Our stay at the beach and on the island was really good. We had personal attention and help when we needed it and felt very welcome.

About the host

Hosted by Host

Host profile image
We are Bahamians and love our island home. We love to share our island with people who appreciate the laid back lifestyle and natural beauty of the area.

Why they chose this property

Prime location on the beach and close to everything.
Looks and feels like an old beach bungalow, but with modern amenities.

What makes this property unique

The views! Unique position on the beach allows for spectacular views in both directions on the beach as well as the ocean. Watch cruise ships, yachts and other large ships pass in the ocean just beyond the reef or watch the sandbar emerge from the water at low tide. Sunsets are our favorite time on the deck, but morning coffee watching the sun rise over Eleuthera is pretty special too.
