It has air conditioning, and a full kitchen, living room, full bath with an inside shower, plus an outside shower, and a king sized bed. It’s located on beautiful Lochabar Point Beach in Clarence Town, Long Island, Bahamas. Three islands border the harbour in front to protect and calm the water. Wonderful for swimming and snorkeling! Inside French doors open into the bedroom with a connecting bathroom. A private veranda with an attached outdoor shower is accessible from the bedroom. Windows abound with special water views.
