About this property

Hope Town's Top Rental: Beachfront sunsets, AC, free boat dock, & close to town!

Full description: This modern home sits on possibly the most ideal homesite on the island: An actual beach-front house, level lot, sunset view, on the calm side, perfect soft sand, crystal clear swimming waters, good privacy, and right at the top end of Hope Town. Brand new air conditioner, new chef's kitchen, open-concept, and new back-up generator, all newly renovated bedrooms, new flooring throughout (not in the pictures yet!), new stainless steel appliances including a second fridge (comes in quite handy for bigger groups!), and new clothes washer and dryer. Master bedroom with a queen bed, guest bedroom with a queen bed, and a 3rd bedroom which has two full-size beds in a bunk (adult size), and a twin bed (thus sleeps 4 in that room), and a pull out queen size bed in the main room. A 2-minute walk from the North-End Public dock ferry drop-off, free boat docking 80 meters from the house at a newly built dock, and a short bike, boat, or rental golf cart to Hope Town and the restaurants, and yes you can cart through town now and south to the rest of the island's attractions as well. It's only a 15 minute ferry or boat ride over to the dock from the mainland, which is only a 5 minute cab from MHH international airport! Great snorkeling right off the beach, especially around the reefs at the north tip. Some renters have even caught bonefish right in front of the house after seeing them swimming by from the deck! We usually have at least 1 or 2 kayaks, some floaties, a paddleboard, etc., although sometimes they are broken or go missing and it takes a bit to order new ones in from the US. We have a great relationship with the cart rental company, so they will drop off carts right at the ferry or boat dock for you, or at the house if you prefer. We also give you a full info guide, custom-curated by us, for most of the great things around the island, best practices at the house, and lots of other good info, and we email this to you well in advance of your trip so you can plan out all the best things! For restaurants, there are many amazing spots just a short cart or boat ride away including Captain Jack's, Firefly, Abaco Inn, Hope Town Inn & Marina, On Da Beach, Mackey's, Golden Kitchen, and more coming soon! However, keep in mind that one of the nicest meals you will have is BBQing looking over the beach and sea, and for that, there's a huge grocery store in Marsh Harbour near where you land (usually a great spot for a first big shop before you come across), and a small grocery store right in Hope Town. For high season (May to August) please try and book at least 6 consecutive nights; however, if you want to stay less, just inquire here and let me know what you're looking for and I will do my best to make it work!

Amazing North End Experience!
The Beachhouse was a one of kind experience! Not only was the property beautiful with every amenity imaginable, the location was perfect and the service/host was amazing. Kevin was so responsive answered every little question had a great welcoming Google document and knew lots of people on the island who are more than willing to help us with anything we needed. I highly recommend staying at the Beachhouse -you will create memories of a lifetime and have an incredible experience.!

Why they chose this property

Our house is particularly easy to get to, as you can fly international right to Marsh Harbour (or connect through Nassau), then we are either a 15 min rental boat OR 15 min ferry, and luck conveniently, our house is only 3 houses away from the North End ferry dock! If you rent a boat, you can dock for free at that same dock system just 3 houses away from Beach House. Or you can have the cart rental folks leave you a golf cart or two right at the dock :)

We also provide a detailed info guide for all of our guests that has the best information for local attractions, things to do, key contacts, supplies, restaurants, boat rentals, cart rentals, etc. I believe we have the most up to date and informative guide book around, which is live updated in real time so you have the best information we have as soon as we have it!

For groceries, there is a huge grocery store in Marsh Harbour where you land. Most people take a 5 min tax from airport to grocery, do a big shop, then another 5 min taxi from grocery store to the rental boat or ferry dock. There is also a little grocery store right in town in Hope Town, so a few minutes via cart or rental boat and you can top up anything you forgot. You can also always go back to MH anytime through the trip, especially easy with a rental boat (Blue Wave Rentals). You can also order concierge service through a personal shopper we have on the island and the groceries will be at the house when you arrive.
