Oceanfront Cottage With Great Location

Thanks, glad you enjoyed your stay and the wedding.

This guest never stayed at the property. I did have some delayed communication at times after hurricane Dorian. As I write this, it is almost 10 months after the storm and I have been in Abaco during restoration for about 6 months of that time. Communication was a challenge at times. Happily, much progress has been made and the cottages are in good shape as is much in Hope Town now.

Thank you for your comments, we are glad to hear you enjoyed the cottage and location. Sorry one of the sliding doors was not operable during your stay. My caretaker did let me know that it developed an issue and he was not able to repair it yet, it should soon be operable. We do have air conditioning and prefer that that door not be left open for long periods of time due to the direct beachfront location. The corrosive salt spray quickly contributes to issues and can lead to degradation (like the stuck door). I also appreciate your concern for the dune as we have been involved in rebuild efforts after a number of weather events. However, no building approval is available for "board walks" that you may be familiar with in other areas. I hope you return to enjoy the property, location, deck and of course all the surrounding area in Abaco has to offer. Thanks, Jon

Thank you for your comments. Glad you enjoyed the location and your trip. You are correct that the dune is very important and needs to be left in place. Although it does block the ocean view while sitting on the deck, the vegetation on it is also important, the root system stabilizes the sand and prevents it from being blown away and on the cottage. I believe Sea Oats are illegal to disturb or trim in both the Bahamas and Florida. As far as a cooler, I usually just bring a collapsible easily packable one with me on my trips. Jean(John) is great, he overseas and follows up on the cleaning crew, I will pass along your comments to him. Glad to hear he took good care of you - he enjoys meeting and helping guests enjoy their stay.
