Om boendet

"Det blå huset" ett rymligt hus vid stranden med magnifik utsikt.

"Det blå huset" är det ultimata fritidshuset som ligger på den vackra ön San Salvador, Bahamas. Bara några steg från stranden och centralt beläget på en ö som är full av historia, äventyr och kul! Blue House är rymligt och bekvämt. Det stora öppna vardagsrummet med välvt tak och tre skjutbara glasdörrar som öppnar mot sitt enorma däck med utsikt över stranden och dess klara turkosa vatten ger den mest spektakulära utsikten och solnedgången. Däck har ett stort picknickbord och en gasgrill för att njuta av många måltider utomhus. Två hängmattor och många solstolar väntar dig också när du är borta timmarna. Det stora sovrummet har utsikt över havet med skjutbara glasdörrar som öppnar sig till däck. Utanför sovrummet finns ett komplett badrum och ett andra sovrum. På andra våningen finns det ytterligare två sovrum, två badrum och ett öppet loft. Köket är mycket rymligt och ljust och har de flesta saker vi har hemma. När du går in i det här huset kommer du att veta vad paradiset betyder!



San Salvador åtkomstinformation: San Sal, som det kallas av lokalbefolkningen och vanliga besökare, har en flygplats med en stor språng för att stödja landning och start av stora jetplan. För att komma till Nassau (från en amerikansk avgångspunkt) har US Airways vanliga erbjudanden, även Jet Blue och Spirit Airlines, American Airlines, United, Delta och Continental har ibland bra erbjudanden. Från nordöstra USA kan du hitta flyg så låga som $ 200 plus skatt tur och retur. Bahamas Air har en daglig flygning som lämnar Nassau kl. 11:00 till San Sal och på lördagar också kl. 14.45 (säsongsbetonad, vänligen fråga med Bahamas luft) Återresebiljett cirka 220 dollar för vuxna, barn upp till 12 betalar hälften) en 50 minuters flygning.

Spirit Air har också en direktflyg från Ft. Lauderdale till San Sal endast på lördagar.

Att ta sig runt San Sal: San Sal har flera historiska platser som är det första landfallet i Christopher Columbus flotta. Det har också den sista av manuellt fotogenopererade fyrar i Bahamas, en verkligt speciell och nostalgisk historia som briterna förde med sig. Utsikten från toppen av fyren får inte missa. Det finns också grottor, ruiner från gamla plantager och grottor på norra spetsen där San Salvador Iguanas bor, dessa arter är infödda i området och kan bara hittas här. Fågellivet är också rikligt med att San Sal har många saltvatten sjöar. San Sal betjänas av Queens Highway som går hela omkretsen, cirka 60 mil. För att utforska platser som fyren och andra rekommenderas därför en bil eller en skoter (båda kan enkelt hyras) eller så kan du ta en ö-tur med en av reseguiderna.


Tillgång till internet: Tillgängligt i huset, även om tjänsten ibland kan vara nere - och när den är nere i huset, är den nere på hela ön ... det kan hända i ett par timmar eller under en dag!

Secluded paradise and the perfect adventure

This was an amazing trip for us. 2 adults with 3 kids (14). Excellent advice from the owner on what to bring along. Amazing care from the caretaker just down the road. Getting to/from the island can be an adventure but once there you feel at home since everyone knows everyone. People were so welcoming and nice and willing to help with anything we asked for. We had our own car and met the caretaker at the airport who then guided us to the house to get set up. She was available to assist with any issues and even got us some fish and lobster to cook! This home is roomy and has an amazing back deck, view and straight access to the beach at any time. All the amenities of home and we were able to purchase more things on the island we needed. We snorkled right off the beach and took lots of walks. Water was very calm first few days and as the wind picked up we had huge waves the last day. We loved the absolute seclusion as we had the beach to ourselves but were able to go to the small stores just a few minutes away if we wanted to see people. We took drives around the island as well. I have been to many carribean spots but this place and this water color is special and we have plans to return!

Simply Amazing!!!

Our stay at the Blue House was amazing. The house was just as described by Flavia and met our groups needs. The kitchen was big enough for multiple people to be in there cooking. The beach was perfect and beach toys and bikes made the stay even more enjoyable. Would highly recommend for small and large groups alike. We will definitely be returning on future trips to San Salvador.

A great Hideway

The "Blue House" is a great hideway. If you have been searching for the "back of beyond" and a peaceful time, you have found it. The house itself is very large and inviting with cathedrale ceilings in the living-room. It has all the amenities for those who wish to live on their own. The veranda at th back is hudge and gives a busy family a place outside - even if it rains. The beach is close, clean and private. It drops off quickly so you can swim immediately. Snokling and diving on this island are amazing and the fishing an experience not to be missed. The people on San Salvador are helpful and kind. We were able to rent a golf cart at the Riding Rock Resort and their bartender there, Peaches, was a mine of information. This is a palce suitable for those who like to make their own fun. Our whole family enjoyed it.

Blue House Not What We Hoped For

Unfortunately, the Blue House has not recovered well from Hurricane Joaquin in October 2015. The house was not at all what we were expecting and looks as though deterioration began well before the hurricane. In all fairness, Flavia should have let us know this. We stayed away from the house all day everyday mostly because there was nothing pleasant to go back to. Sliding glass doors would not lock, much less open and close. AC and TV did not work. No place to wash feet after walking the beach. No hammock as pictured. Long black hairs in bathroom and shower. Dirty toilets. Clogged bathroom sink the entire time. Garnell tried her best to fix things for us but she could only do so much. Flavia, the owner wasn't able to help from NY but she SEEMED nice in response to our complaints, telling us to go stay at Riding Rock Resort. To say the least and be polite, this house was not well maintained and cared for. The island people are the nicest you'll meet anywhere. The best place to eat is next to the Juice bar at Rosemary's. She makes the best conch around. And, David across the street makes a delicious conch salad! Rent a car and find all the sites on the map but beware, many are still in disarray from the hurricane and roads to Snow Bay and Pigeon Creek are either not accessible or we couldn't find. Same for Guanhini Beach Resort. The place to go at night is Riding Rock resort, but wait until May, June or July. They were closed while we were there. When you go say hi to Peaches. I would NOT recommend Club Med unless you must have a spa treatment. Day passes are 180.00 each and only include buffets and watered down drinks. The spa is run separately and the people who run it are wonderful. Despite the condition of the house, we managed to have a good time but left a day early because we couldn't bare staying another night in a place that made us cringe. I wish this site allowed me to post pictures.

Island stay....

Location on the beach with snorkeling just off was fantastic. The house was comfortable, nice fresh, clean linens and towels - gorgeous deck and great family sitting room. The 5 bedrooms and bathrooms were as described. Other areas were unfinished and outside was a mess around the sides of the house. The island itself is very quiet- Limited outside activities other than Club Med. Grocery Shopping is a little store with basic supplies only - we took in a freezer of food And loved going to Club Med to play and eat! We could not participate in any boating activities other than at Club Med as everything was booked by them. We had a storm the first day and then the sand flies came out! It would have been good to have been forewarned- research sand flies/ no-see-ums!!

Heaven on Earth

Thank you so much for an absolutely amazing stay. Our family arrived and were met at the airport by Garnell who was lovely and ever so accommodating throughout our entire stay. The house was just as the pictures showed and the beach right outside the back door was incredible - not a sole in sight - the entire beach all to ourselves. There are some really beautiful reefs just off shore to explore. We purchased day passes at club Med and had great fun sailing drinking and trying to eat as much as possible to make up for the cost - worth it though. There is not a lot to do on the island - a couple of places to eat - down home, Columbus tavern and Paradis. Not a bad idea to preorder at least an hour prior - food if prepared to order and can take a while — all good though. Highly recommend the house and the island.

Good house, great time

Had a good time at the house, it's located a short drive north of the airport and right on the beach. AC was cold, wifi worked great, and having a grill to cook on was an added bonus.

Great location and nice people

Our family had a great time at the Blue House. The locals were amazing, the location superb. The house manager Garnell is a lovely lady, very helpful and attentive. The house is expansive and offers great views of the turquoise waters. The beach is literally yours. At about 50 feet from shore there are coral reefs with caverns, perfect for daily snorkeling. The sand flies come at dusk and are problematic, and spray doesn't work well...should have been warned prior and done some research on how to avoid. The food is expensive and difficult to get good quality and variety (paradise island in middle of nowhere).

San Salvador is a hidden gem

We enjoyed our trip to San Salvador and the Blue House was perfect for our stay. Garnell (property manager) is wonderful and she also helped us with cooking our Thanksgiving turkey (her mother cooked it for us). We enjoyed the beach! Shore dives from the back porch are lovely. Coral heads are right off the beach so bring your mask, snorkel and fins. Clean and comfortable with plenty of room and a beautiful view. Extra freezers for our fish (the wahoo bite was ON!!). The marina is about a mile south of this house and we had our boat docked there. Bring bug spray!! The mosquitos on San Sal are no joke! We used a Thermocell on the back porch at night to keep them away. Old Bahamian charm with Bahamian character. If you are flexible and enjoy a bit of adventure with your vacation then this island is for you.

JUST AMAZING!!!

Nous sommes resté 2 semaines en famille avec un bébé dans cette magnifique villa, la "maison bleue" est idéalement placée, à proximité des commerces, et au bord d'une magnifique plage de sable blanc. La maison est très spacieuse et magnifiquement décorée. Et que dire de cette immense terrasse, face à la magnifique mer des bahamas... Splendide!! Tout ce qui est annoncé sur le descriptif est bien réel. Nous sommes venu de France avec une correspondance par Londres et Nassau. L'endroit est idéal pour se reposer et se détendre . Les bahamiens sont formidables et ne manqueront pas de vous aider si besoin. Mention spéciale pour Miss Williams, qui s'occupe de la maison sur place, et qui à toujours été disponible et réactive quand on en avait besoin. L'aéroport est à 2min en voiture, le club med également, si vous souhaiter profiter de leur activités ou soirées dansante. Il y a une épicerie à 100M, et le "centre ville" est à 5min en voiture. Plusieurs restaurants sont à proximités de la maison. Pour la nourriture, on trouve de tout dans les commerces. Bref notre séjour dans cette maison à été merveilleux et nous ne manqueront pas d'y retourner dès que possible. Merci Flavia pour tous vos conseils avant notre départ et de nous faire profiter de cette magnifique maison. MICKAEL

Turquoise Heaven

The house has everything you need to enjoy time at the beach. The kitchen is well equipped. Several nice touches include a 5 gallon water dispenser, dishwasher, and washer and dryer. The house was clean with plenty of towels and nice big beach towels. The owner and manager were pleasant, honest and extra helpful. The big porch across the back is where we spent entire days, reading and alternately sunning and seeking shade. When you sit there you cannot see another house and I never saw anyone walk past. After a cocktail hour walk, the air condition comfort inside while cooking dinner and listening to your I-Pod and watching the sunset out the back is just perfect. The beach is beautiful, and the only people we ever saw were a few local families fishing early morning and at dusk. The swimming is great and we had fun snorkeling right out back of the house. We ate at Paradis several times, the whole snapper is done with flavor and perfect seasoning. Also try the conch chowder at the Riding Rock Inn, yum. There are not many places to eat and you might want to bring your favorite staples, rice, cereal, coffee, spices for cooking as the provisions at the store are limited. Fresh veggies and dairy must be purchased soon after the boat comes in (because when they are gone you have to wait until the next boat). The store owner teased us about how many yogurts we bought. We were able to get three heads of romaine lettuce, which is a real surprise in the out islands. Don't forget to check out the light house, go inside and see the marvel of the prisms that make up the light reflection. If you like solitude and turquoise water the Blue House is the place to be!

Great time at thye Blue House San Salvador

Three friends and I just returned from San Sal for our 20 year reunion. We all used to work on the island as teachers and as dive instructors way back. In many ways, little has changed. One great addition is the home we rented in VH Victoria Hill on the North Western side of the island where the sand is white, the ocean light blue and waves are generally calm. The "Blue House" is well appointed and situated on a powder white sand beach- with turquoise blue "Bahamian" ocean steps from the back porch- it was perfect for us. August was hot- and we knew it would be so AC in the living area and guest rooms were very important. The home was well supplied with pots and pans- laundry- stereo, Internet. The internet went out for a few days- rebooted and was fine- we had some minor trouble with the ac remotes- new batteries would probably resolve that, fresh linens, towels and the option to do laundry were great. The whole place met and exceeded our expectations. We know the island well- it is very remote and everything comes by supply boat once a week just as it has for 40- 50 years. Every single nut and bolt, can of soup, gallon of milk comes via "mail boat". Once you understand that, you realize what a fine job the owner and manager do maintaining the house. The location, just North of town- in a small settlement, Victoria Hill is quiet yet close to the island's two hotels. Other homes we looked at are near beautiful beaches but are quite removed from any stores or restaurants. Don't come to San Sal looking for fine exotic cuisine and South Beach style nightlife- come to relax, melt the stress away, snorkel, fish, swim, walk the long uninhabited beachs, get to know some friendly locals. Talking about food, we did manage to eat our share of cracked conch, steamed conch, conch salad, fried chicken, mac and cheese, fried fish, peas and rice (thanks Peaches) and of course - grilled to 20 lb dolphin (dorado) fish we caught trolling off the wall. Good times- stick to the rum- it is good quality and cheap in comparison to beer which can cost $50+ a case. Thanks and we hope to be back some day.

the Blue House, San Salvador, Bahamas

the Blue House was fantastic! The beach and water access is unbelievable! The house was well stocked for all our needs for cooking, plenty of towels etc. Perhaps you can leave instructions for the A/C and its remotes, we were unsure how to use them- otherwise the house was great and we look forward to staying there again in the near future!!

Great Week at the Blue House

Our family of 4 (including 2 demanding teenagers) spent a very relaxing week here in mid-August. The house is very spacious: the kids each had a room to themselves & there was another twin-bedded room that we didn't use. The kitchen is a good size with a full range of (dated) functioning appliances. The ac worked very well (leak in one room was waiting for a part from Nassau to be fixed), as did the TV, internet and PS2. Combined with all the other natural attractions, our kids thought they were in heaven! The location of the house is FANTASTIC: all you can see is beach and sea. The beach is 10 yards through the garden from the deck and then the sea is 20-30 yards away depending on the tide. The beach has a steep section (down to the waters edge) for about 3-4 feet that could be problematic for a toddler on their own, or for someone with physical disabilities. The sea was crystal clear except for the day after the one major thunderstorm we had. There are several thriving reefs within 50 yards of the shore and we saw countless tropical fish, large grouper and parrot fish, the turtle, octopus, cuttle fish, etc etc. You won't need to go anywhere else to snorkel: it is right here. We only had company once, when on the "cloudy water day" a family of 4 walked all the way along to us from Club Med. We hired a car for the week (Avis/Hertz it is NOT!) to explore the island, and in retrospect would have been better off getting it for a day and using the golf cart for the rest of the week. We were pleasantly surprised by the availability, quality and cost of provisions bought on the island. We were disappointed by the quality and selection of restaurant food (it's all just OK at best): if you want anything decent, be prepared to cook it yourself - there is a grill on the deck, so this is not a problem. What else? We never saw a mosquito; outside after sunset there were smaller black flying, biting insects but (a) we encountered far more of them when we went out to eat & (b) deet-based repellent (sold @ local supermarket) worked. The house was spotlessly clean when we arrived. The attic space is in the process of being finished and tools and materials were visible from the landing: but nothing that a strategically placed hanging screen couldn't deal with. If it was mine, a fresh coat of exterior paint would be on my to do list, along with a 2nd hammock for someone else to use! We would stay here again in a heartbeat.
