About this property

Imagine Waking up Here! - Arawak Cottage - Eastern Harbour-Mow

This is a family-owned property, on the secluded Eastern Harbour of quiet, Man-O-War Cay, Abaco. This small island is on the edge of the Atlantic Ocean, with incredible views, easy access to the beach and reefs. It must be seen to be believed.

Keywords: On the Water! - a very special vacation home, an idyllic setting, a unique environment. On the quiet Eastern Harbour at Man-O-War Cay - Sailing vessels at anchor, the sounds of the sea, herons nesting in the mangroves, grey snappers under the porch, dolphins playing in the front yard. All the joys and wonders of living on a boat without the worry of checking anchor bearings.

A Traditional Boat House to Launch Your Adventures
Arawak Cottage was a wonderful home-base during our New Years trip. We arrived by 42' powerboat and had no issue tying up to the dock. The views from the porch are amazing, as are the views across the island from this properties private beach access.

Quaint & Quiet Getaway
Tim’s cottage is a quaint home providing dockage and all necessities for a low-key vacation. The cottage is in a quiet area of MOW is on the far end of the island away from the town center but walkable if you need to get provisions. The caretaker, Molly, was there to meet us and helped get us started with local food info. She checked in a couple times regarding the weather, which I appreciated, but gave us privacy the rest of the time. The island experiences brown outs almost daily, so if you need AC or power this may not be the place for you. We enjoyed the simplicity, and took advantage of unplugging. There is a small collection of books and games as well as flashlights to pass the time. The kitchen is well-stocked to cook meals, and there is a washer/dryer (bring your own washing soap or buy it at Russell’s convenience store). The bed was comfortable. We enjoyed the outdoor shower too. Overall if you prefer stargazing and seeing sea turtles from your dock, over modern conveniences, then give this cottage a try, you may enjoy it as much as we did.

Authentic Out Island Gem
An authentic, quiet and rustic traditional Out Island Bahamian Cottage right on Eastern Harbor. If getting away from it all, getting back to a simpler time and place is what you seek look no farther. We loved laying on the dock at night and watching the Milky Way. Please note if you want a traditional mainland experience this is not the place for you. It was an absolute slice of heaven for us!
