Wonderful cottage on the water

This cottage is in a perfect location to explore the south part of Long Island. Owners Peter and Pam were welcoming when we arrived, gave a thorough explanation of the facilities and were available to answer questions throughout. The cottage is well stocked for cooking and enjoying the water, with kayaks and beach chairs. The sea a few feet down a walkway is wonderful for swimming and there are many great beaches nearby.

Beautiful Views, Cozy Home

This is our second time returning to Long Island, Bahamas and staying at Peter & Pam's place. They provide a great welcome packet to help explore the island and are great to communicate with if any questions arise. We loved Passionate Pelican, the views from the balcony to start and end our day were amazing. Home is well stocked, clean and comfy! We enjoyed the double kayak to explore, seeing rays, fish, lemon sharks and turtles. Would highly recommend staying here, you won't be disappointed.

Top position

This property in my opinion is positioned in the best place on the island. It has a great living area overlooking the water with a great balcony. High ceilings throughout which gives it a lot of space and it’s easy to find. The beach is great for walking , swimming and sunbathing. Thank you Peter and Pam !

Long Island Getaway

Home has a spectacular view and amazing beach in front of the house. Violet was extremely helpful and changed her schedule to help us get into the house. She also gave us a lot of tips on where to go/what to do as it was our first trip to Long Island. Location was great on the south end of the island, near the marina and about 30 miles from Gordon's Beach which was beautiful. Would definitely recommend staying here particularly for a party of 2.

Our 3rd time staying on Long Island. We have grown to love the beautiful sister cottages and the Island as well as the people we’ve met there. You cannot beat the view at either cottage, Whistling Duck or Passionate Pelican. Violet is always available to help with anything you may need and even picked up a loaf of homemade bread that my husband loves from Erica’s Bakery right around the corner from the cottage. He buys a loaf every day from her while we are there. You can swim in the water right behind the cottage and there are kayaks for use if you like. The air conditioner in the bedroom blows really cold air and the king size bed was perfect. Best vacation ever! Thank you for sharing your beautiful place with us!

Time off in Paradise

Great experience from beginning to end. Owners Peter and Pam very welcoming and helpful via email with local info. Violet, the property Manager super nice and helpful. She made us feel like we were old friends coming to visit. Any questions and she was back at you immediately with a reply. As Bahamians visiting one of our family islands, we are so happy to know that people going there will really have a good, relaxing experience. The view from the cottage was soooo beautiful. Suffice it to say Passionate Pelican was a little slice of heaven. Thank you Peter, Pam and Violet

This cottage was everything we were looking for!

Our trip started rocky with a delayed flight, but the island has a way of healing everything. Peter was an amazing host. He was very helpful with any questions and you can feel his love for the island. Violet is the manager, who is equally as awesome and helpful. The cottage is really something I could see myself purchasing in the future. There were no surprises. If anything, I was surprised I couldn't make it by myself to the outer islands while the tide was coming in lol. We had so much fun. It was secluded enough too, the vegetation is so high everywhere, there's so much to check out. Make sure you rent a car!

A Perfect Get Away

The Passionate Pelican was the perfect stay. Ordinarily, the Atlantic side is choppy and difficult for swimming and water activities. However, the barrier islands surrounding Lochabar Beach meant very calm waters in the Bay. It's close to several restaurants and of course, Erica's Bakery in Clarence Town. Sitting on the deck (or even laying in bed) provides beautifully blue ocean views and we enjoyed our coffee every morning while watching the sunrise. We also enjoyed the cool breezes at night time before retiring. The size was perfect for the two of us. Violet (the property manager) was quick to communicate and even let us know what time the scheduled power outages were happening which helped us plan. Apparently, a transformer had blown somewhere on the island power grid. So, they were load sharing between settlements until a new part arrived. Bottom line - it was a perfect get away.

Thanks for the review! While I wasn't on Long Island, I've been watching updates on the Power situation there. It sounds like there may have been a problem at the generating station. Hopefully it didn't inconvenience you too much. While short power failures are somewhat common on Long Island, long outages like this one (with rotating blackouts around the island) are rare. - Peter

A place of tropical peace and quiet

What a find! Fairly-modern 2-room rental home (along with it's sister house, Whistling Duck) is located just a few concrete steps from the clean warm shallow waters of Lochabar Beach, 5 minutes drive south of Clarence Town. The roads are mostly paved until just before you reach the house; gated property but only to keep the local goats from wandering in, the neighborhood is incredibly quiet and safe. Lovely property with landscaping and separate parking areas for each house, sufficient privacy between the buildings, doesn't feel over-crowded. Separate water access for each house plus kayaks, lounge chairs, beach chairs. Must climb stairs to access house.The house is in good shape, sturdy lock, great air flow when windows are open, the AC in the bedroom keeps things nice and cool all night. Water pressure is terrific in indoor and outdoor showers, gets nice and hot. They ask you to conserve water supply, but we never felt we were running low on water for dishes bathing etc. Really nice Roku TV in bedroom with DVD player (HDMI). The Wi-Fi is amazingly fast, no trouble for video conferencing and uploading videos to YouTube and streaming movies. Mattress is king sized and so comfy! Really nice quality towels and linens. Plenty of dresser drawers, storage space. So peaceful and quiet at night, no traffic noise... No roosters crowing in the morning! We slept great. The curtains are a bit thin so you will get sunlight in your face in the mornings, use a sleep mask if needed.

An Absolutely Wonderful Stay!

Passionate Pelican is a small beautiful cottage w/ an INCREDIBLE view of the blue water at low tide! Owner Peter was helpful in providing tips for area by email & Violet was nice & accommodating giving the keys. Ample room for couple but note there are only 3 rms: combo living room/kitchen, bathroom, & air-conditioned bedroom. Another bathroom on lower level w/outside entrance. We stayed early Sept - very hot, but nice cool breeze on the balcony, so heat wasn't a problem indoors. Seems in Sept, the bugs aren't bad as I expected. I don't think they like breeze so had NO problem w/biting bugs. Amazing stargazing on balcony, we saw the huge Starlink satellite which freaked us out a little until I looked it up & knew what it was! Beach area in front of cottage seemed safe at low tide, went WAY out & could stand for most of it. Crystal clear water, warm as bath water! We snorkeled to left of the property where it's rockier & by Lochabar blue hole (scary looking!), saw some cool fish in those areas. Kayak worked well low tide, not so well high tide - big change in the water. Glad we didn't try to make it to the islands in the distance! Sept is offseason, saw very few people. Some restaurants close. Clarence Town was ghost town. Beautiful quiet relaxing vacation in paradise! Recommend boat tour (we used Big V Adventures) & Hamilton's Cave. Don't rely on BahamasAir to keep your flight time - we had to stay an extra night in Nassau due to changes. Locals said to take a ferry instead.

Thanks for the review! The sheep runner ferry from Georgetown can be a good option for some people, but it only runs Mon/Wed/Fri, and flights (from most places) to GGT tend to be more expensive than flights to NAS. Some of our guests have used it, but I don't think it works for everyone.
