About this property

Away From The Things Of Man.... Adults Only!

Welcome to Serenity. Classic Bahamian style cottage perched all by it's self over a spectacular white-sand beach looking straight out to a breathtaking turquoise ocean.


Enjoy absolute privacy and seclusion with private access to a serene slice of sandy beach where your precious tranquility isn't spoiled by swarms of strangers and hundreds of umbrellas blotting out the sun. There are none of the typical distractions here to mess with your "serenity". No traffic noise, no sirens, no blaring television, no screaming kids, no drama. Just the soothing sounds of paradise.


Ready for a little digital decompression?


This is a Quasi-Hybrid Off-Grid, Low-Tech, ECO-Type Beach Hut. That means no air condition, no tv, no telephone, no video games, etc. Not to fear, there is solar power for lights and your devices, WiFi is available if you get shaky from digital withdrawals, and of course we simply open the door to condition the air..


The hut is cozy, tidy and sparkling clean. The compact kitchen inside is well-equipped and fully functional, and outside both charcoal and wood fired grills are ready for cooking "island style".


Great hiking, fishing, swimming, beachcombing, sunbathing, more all at your doorstep. Just want to chill? Layout on the deck net and let the Caribbean sun and ocean breeze caress your body, or climb into the hammock and fall asleep to the gentle sound of waves lapping on the beach. All the amenities here are "au naturel". The Caribbean sun for warmth, Bahamian breeze to cool off. Warm salty sea for a soothing soak.

Relaxation
Wow! Amazing! We had a great time! The only thing you need to wear at Serenity is sunscreen. We stayed eight days and only seen two people walking the beach. For it being a public beach, it sure felt like our very own private oasis. The hut had about everything we needed for our stay including wifi . The king size net bed was our favorite place to hang out during the day to catch some rays and then at night for some star gazing. Tip: pack a flashlight, the nights are very dark when there's no moon out. The pictures and descriptions listed on VRBO are spot on, but you really need to be here in person to get a sense of the "serenity". The hosts were easy to reach and answer any questions we had. They even helped us set up a car rental and brought/delivered us some delicious pizza!

Perfect
If you need to unplug and forget about the working world this is the property for you. The "hut" is a simple cabin with everything you need. We've been to LI multiple times and this beach is unbelievable. The tidal pools, snorkeling, and geography are top notch. To top it off, it's completely secluded. We will be back!!

Truly Paradise!
The Hut is a beautiful place to stay. A little unconventional being off grid but we found it easy to adjust during our stay. There are so many beautiful places to visit on Long Island and it was nice to have such a beautiful secluded location to come back and relax at. If the wind is blowing it is perfect to sit outside, but if it is not the bugs are bad!! Luckily we had a nice breeze most of our stay. We had a fabulous time and would definitely stay again!

Something Very Special!
This place is something very special! After leaving a side road following a visit to the local grocery store, and along a small SUV worthy deep and narrow bumpy track, and over its crested hill you are greeted with a stunning views of miles of beach, rich green hill hugging vegetation, the Atlantic Ocean painted with every hue of blue, and dramatic cloud peppered skies. Wait, and there's a home, beautifully naturally landscaped and almost hidden from sight. Gorgeous breezes from the ocean flow most days and nights, making any activity a dream. The home is simple, yet has all your needs, great solar, even great wifi that extends outside to the additional seating/viewing areas. Watch the sunrises and listen to the ever changing ocean from the very comfortable bed, hang in the hammocks, or walk miles along the deserted beach (not a single person, or another's footprint in our week's visit). So relaxing, a perfect unwind. If you need that touch of civilization, a few good restaurants and bars are just a short drive. A hidden gem we need to keep for ourselves!

What it says and more.
Honestly, my husband and I weren’t totally sure what to expect, but as soon as we got there we knew that we were somewhere special. The beach felt like it was ours. The only people we saw in two weeks were some local boys going to hunt wild goats lol. Snorkeling here will blow your mind. You see fish and rays and sharks that are usually only seen in documentaries. It felt like something precolonial and magical. Make sure to grab plenty of insecticide from the local food supply store, but other than that , we had absolutely no complaints. The host was awesome. I’d go back in a heartbeat or at least the next time i have a few weeks between jobs ;)

A little slice of paradise
Awesome, beautiful and peaceful little spot on the beach. Jim was great in greeting us and answering all the questions we had about the island. The beach was awesome and right in front of the house.

Paradise Found
This little cottage was more than I every expected. Jim was quick to respond with answers to any questions we had. If you are looking for a place that has complete seclusion, a comfortable bed, a view to die for, and miles of beaches without another person around you have found it at Serenity. We have been coming to Long Island for 20 some years and love every part of it. This little cottage has been added to our list of favorite finds. Thank you for sharing your little piece of heaven with us.

Why they chose this property

Just a tiny shack on a beautiful beach. It's certainly not right for everyone. But for us topless sun worshiping minimalists, it's pure heaven.
