My family rented this vacation home at the end of December. The weather and sea temperature were great! The house is nice and the location near the beach is awesome! Our bedroom, and front deck, had an ocean view and a nice breeze! Fell asleep every night to the sound of the ocean! The beach in front of the house is beautiful, we pretty much spent all our time in the water snorkeling! Very close to Deans Blue Hole, what a gorgeous beach as well! The owner, Atil, and his family were so welcoming, we really enjoyed their company. They are such wonderful people! We had a beach BBQ with them and some of the other locals-what a nice experience! We also had a bonfire on the beach! We explored the southern portion of Long Island near the beachouse (Clarencetown area). We highly recommend checking out Galloway Beach and Lochabar Beach as well. Words cannot describe how beautiful the waters were. Our fave restaurants include Lloyds Sporting Lounge, which is right down the road, Rowdy Boys, and Flying Fish Marina. If you get a chance, rent a boat and check out the "snakes". We highly recommend this house to anyone who seeks a rural Bahama island experience!
