We can't say enough good things about the wonderful hosts. Even though we didn't get perfect weather, we had a blast. The house is a magical place in a magical spot. It takes a little work to get to Fresh Creek but you'll be glad you did.

Big Bamboo was amazing! The villa and location is top notch! Not only a great villa, it was clean, very well stocked and hosted by the absolute best hosts, Steve and Kelly. We had a great time and got lots of R&R set on water that is crystal clear!

Simply Perfect

If you've found this home and are considering it you should make the jump. That is if blue water, fishing (from the dock, bone fishing or offshore), snorkeling, spearfishing, diving, blue holes, kayaking and paddle boarding are your thing. Our group of 7 loved every minute of it. We were pleasntly surprised that it was even more beautiful in person than the photos of the property online. Kelly & Steve really have thought of everything to make your stay perfection. We were 2 families traveling with teen boys and we never once heard a single complaint from any of them. Our kids were in heaven. They caught dozens of fish from the dock, made sno cones, snorkeled from the pier, went spearfishing for lobsters, enjoyed the pool and hot tub and went to be so stinking tired every night. We loved it so much we have already reserved next year. If you are looking for a quality, off the beaten path experience then this spot is for you. Until next time Big Bamboo 💖

Our Big Bamboo Celebration

9 months ago we started a search for a vacation property to celebrate our upcoming retirements and milestone birthdays with our family. We searched for a property that offered onsite activities and services to make our celebration vacation truly memorable while being away from the hustle and bustle of the larger vacation destinations. Boy did we find this with the Big Bamboo! To start, what a beautiful property! The pictures, while beautiful, do not do this place justice. The house is very well appointed, the views are incredible, and the sunsets are breathtaking! The property has everything an active group could ask for and the staff is always at the ready to find what you need and organize land and sea excursions you would want to do! And the staff....OMG, from the first contact we made with Kelly regarding this property, we felt the Big Bamboo was going to be a very special place. We were not disappointed! Kelly made the planning and logistics to make our dream vacation come true absolutely seamless. She is very, very good at what she does, especially her ability to turn the stresses of planning an adventure to an out island in THE BAHAMAS into a very fun and exciting experience from the day we first reached out to her to our final day when our Tropic Ocean Airways seaplane landed on Fresh Creek to start our journey home. Thank you Kelly for recommending the seaplane experience. Our family will never forget that experience! Captain Steve and his first mate/property manager Jerry truly took care of our clan with both land and sea excursions! Jerry, as an Andros local, shows and shares his passion for the area. He did a marvelous job helping our clan enjoy every moment of every excursion regardless of experience. And Captain Steve, thank you for your stories and friendship developed during those marvelous sunset cruises up Fresh Creek every evening! Kelly's recommendation to use a meal service while at Big Bamboo is not only spot on but its truly an experience you do not want to miss out on! We wanted to experience a true Bahamian experience while on Andros and K'lee (Kischdlee at K'lee Enterprizes) and her sidekick Rico brought that to our table with every meal they presented! Fresh caught lobster, Conch served every imaginable way, crab, shrimp, ribs, chicken and wild boar all freshly prepared and presented with love and care and with flavors that wowed our clan at every meal! Truly worth the experience and convenience!!!

Tropical Paradise

This place was AMAZING!!! Let's start with Kelly and Steve. They supported us every step of the way! Kelly is very responsive and helpful. And sweet! We felt like we knew her already before we even showed up. She was there for any communication questions we had to grocery shopping to delays etc. Steve and the property manager Jerry entertained us by land and water daily. They put us on the fish, lobster, turtles, dolphins, reef, etc. Jerry even took my youngest out snorkeling on his back because he was scared of the reef! This house has everything. EVERYTHING! We had the most wonderful family Spring Break! We can't wait to do it again and share this wonderful place with friends and family.

Bahamian Paradise

Kelly, Steve and Mr. Big Bunny were beyond amazing. I cannot say enough great things about our experience. They were so wonderful to be around and great with our kiddos. Tropic Ocean Airways was fantastic as well. Can't wait to go back and see our sweet friends that became family!

Big Bamboo Delivers More Than You Can Imagine

From the moment we booked our stay until the moment we left, and even now when we reflect upon our stay, Big Bamboo far exceeded our expectations. The pictures cannot accurately depict the gorgeous property, expansive greenery, clear water and every detail lovingly in place. Our party of 6 was met at the Andros airport by our friendly cab driver and greeted at Big Bamboo by Kelly, Steve and Dino with ice cold beverages for our whole crew (3 adults and 3 tweens). From that moment on our time was filled with relaxing in the many lounging areas around the property, on the dock fishing, listening to music or swinging, floating in the lagoon, indulging in freshly made conch salad, swimming with the fish, enjoying boat rides on the whaler, making snow cones, sipping dockside cocktails from the Pirate Bar or on adventure with Steve or Dino. There was more than enough room in the house for everyone to have their own space. The beds, pillows and linens are lovely. There are plenty of decadent towels and bath products in every bathroom. Any appliance you may need is in the very well-stocked kitchen. Ordering groceries ahead of time is key, but if you forget something on your list Kelly and Steve will try to get it for you. We enjoyed two exquisite meals prepared by Miss Kischalee and all agreed we would have more next time! The giant ice machine and laundry facilities downstairs were two luxuries I appreciated the most! We cannot wait for our next visit to see our new friends, Kelly, Steve, Dino, and Miss Kischalee, next year!

Big Bamboo and Crew are Magical!

We have stayed all over the world in many beautiful places. Hands down, this was our favorite. It was relaxing, beautiful and had animals!!! Our son, 7, loved feeding the chickens and giving the adorable cats treats in the morning. Every day a new adventure was waiting for him. Kelly and Steve, were exceptional from the moment of arrival you felt like you were being greeted by old friends you hadn’t seen in a while. Big Bunny made my son giggle non stop and he was just an all around good guy to be around. We fished, we made multiple trips down the slide until we were exhausted... when we retreated for the night Chef Kishalee made us an outstanding dinner each night. So my suggestion to you, don’t just go to Big Bamboo, run! ☺️

Best of Andros

We had such an amazing unique trip for our family. Enjoyed the blue holes, learning to fly fish, meals from Mrs Keschalee, feeding the fish and chickens, and the warm weather. Steve and Kelly go out of their way to make sure you enjoy your stay! Kitchen is stocked for a gourmet cook and two grills outside. This was a perfect off the grid relaxing experience.

Simple the best

We have stayed at VRBOs all over the world and Big Bamboo is the best. Our group was from 75 to 10 and everyone had a blast. Kelly and Steve could not be more accommodating. We will definitely be returning. It is truly like visiting old friends. Our teenage girls were a little unsure of the idea of staying on fresh creek instead of beach front but once we arrived they were so thankful to have the crystal clear calm waters to play in with stand up paddle boards while beach front locations had very choppy water due to island wind. Our little guys fished, crabbed, and conched from sun up until late at night, catching our supper more than once. No one even thought about turning on the TV. Go here for a vacation of a lifetime.

Paradise - wonderful home, waterfront and views with lovely hosts

First of all, the location of the Big Bamboo Villa on Fresh Creek is the best. The scenery of the clear turquoise water is spectacular. The location is sheltered from the stiff Ocean wind we found on the coast. We really enjoyed the gentle breezes along with the sunsets over the water. Plus, we had marine life at our feet. In the Big Bamboo cove we found puffer fish and other colorful tropical fish. We snorkeled in front of Big Bamboo with the snorkel equipment and paddle boards provided. Then, right off the dock we viewed sting rays and starfish. We took the kayak and the motor boat for little excursions up and down Fresh Creek. The dock playground with its slide and swing into the water made it hard to leave to go on our other excursions away from Big Bamboo. From the very beginning of our trip planning to our departure Kelly’s assistance was appreciated every step of the way. We traveled as a family of 6 with our four adult/teenaged children. My family does not have any fishermen or divers - which Andros is known for, but we could not have asked for a better vacation with the other natural activities of blue hole swimming and snorkeling. Kelly provided a list of food items to check off so that she could pre-stock the pantry and refrigerator before our arrival. If you forget any items, it is likely that Kelly has it in the pantry which guests can use as needed. There are a couple of nearby restaurants that we enjoyed (Hanks and Brigadiers). We opted to rent a car which Kelly arranged for us. We flew into Nassau from the US then a charter flight with GlenAir to Andros Town. Our arrival to Big Bamboo was so nice. We were welcomed with snacks for the Notre Dame football game which Kelly made sure we would be able to watch. The Big Bamboo Villa was even better than we could have imagined. So comfortable and clean with treasures around every corner. It has the relaxed feeling of being at home – only better because you are in the Bahamas! The bathrooms were modern with large, tiled walk-in showers. The kitchen and grill area were well equipped. The bedrooms were wonderfully themed, and the air conditioning made for comfortable sleeping at night. Our hosts, Kelly and Steve made sure we were always able to contact them. They are so accommodating, and it shows how much they love Andros and have a passion for sharing its natural beauty while providing the perfect resting spot with every detail thought out at Big Bamboo!

Relax and get pampered in this quaint piece of paradise in authentic Bahamian style

We've traveled all over and stayed in all types of places, and this place is by far our favorite. The 2 story house is very nicely decorated and comfortable.It is very spacious and keep sleep 10 very comfortably. They have everything you need and more.You can arrive with just a suitcase. The kitchen is well equipped, with a coffee bar, a snack bar,a fully stocked cocktail bar, a delicious loaf of homemade coconut bread and homemade quava jelly, and unlimited filtered drinking water. The amenities in the rooms include bottled waters, shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, lip balm, bar soap, kleenex, mints, loofa, info brochures and of course, plenty of towels. There is a washer/dryer, ice maker and internet. The wrap around porch is quiet for an afternoon of reading or for a nightly sunset view. The playground outside is well thought out as well.The slide into the water was fun for kids, the in-water tiki hut was what sold me and afternoon cocktails were refreshing under the hut after paddle boarding in the crystal waters of Fresh Creek. The Tiki Beach Bar and Kitchen under the shaded palm trees was our gathering place for morning coffee, delicious homemade Bahamian lobster salad for lunch and succulent Bahamian Cracked Conch and Lobster for dinner. The food was excellent and they were pleased to cook for us. We had authentic Bahamian Mac and Cheese and Cole slaw as well. The owners, Kelly and Steve and the property manager, Dino, aka "Bunny" were a pure delight. Nicest, warmest people ever. When they greeted us, they said they can be as interactive with us as we want; or we can be left alone if we wanted our privacy. We liked them so much, we chose to be interactive with them; but there were times we wanted to relax and they gave us our space. Their warmth and friendliness truly made the experience delightful. I felt we were truly pampered and I have never been more relaxed on any other trip taken. They took care of any special needs we had. We will definitely go back. We went with family and friends this time but I will also go back for a girls retreat weekend. It is also a great place for a guys get-away and do some fly fishing. Kelly and Steve arranged for a guide to take 2 of our guys fly/spinning rod fly fishing and the guide picked them up at the dock to catch bone fish. They had a blast and caught several. Two of us went fishing out of the kayak.
