Absolutely perfect

Group was me, my husband, two 8 year old sons, my brother, his wife and their 17yo and 13yo. The property has gorgeous views in all directions, lush vegetation, and the island is large and spread out. For two families traveling together with kids of different ages, the two (very nice) houses setup was super helpful. The biggest surprise about the island was the wildlife in the cove b/t the island and Eleuthera - many manatees would swim up let you scratch their backs that everyone would rush to the kayaks/paddle boards/snorkeling gear whenever they could to say hi to our new friends. For activities off island the boat captain took us out a bunch of times and we went tubing, looked at the sea turtles and other wildlife, saw the pigs on Spanish Wells, anchored on a beach off Eleuthera to swim and look for sea biscuits, snorkeling, or just to go for short boat rides. The staff was excellent and friendly and would help us with anything we needed. The chef made delicious restaurant quality meals (I know where she trained so not surprised). The proximity to Harbour Island is a great bonus bc it's a five minute ride across - we went to lunch at one of the beach hotels once while kids played on pink sands and one night went to dinner in town, the boat would wait and you'd text and boom you're home. The owner was v communicative on a group WhatsApp chat that included the house manager, anything we needed we got. In conclusion, a wonderful stay and I'd love to go back.

Great location, questionable staff and charges

What a beautiful vacation with wildlife we had. All the places we visited and all marine life were amazing. Beautiful beaches. That part was truly amazing. The property is def in need of renovations and repair. Pool filtration not working, sparking electrical wires outside during rain, electrical issues with lights dimming, a small building falling apart with items strewn about around it, rusted out canoe, kayaks missing oars, promised activities unavailable, leaking air conditioners in home causing slip hazards, broken floor tiles, stained floors, broken trash can….a lot that needs love and attention. The owner is communicative. The chef and housekeepers were great. The captain a little shady. The biggest issue is the amount of money requested for items before and after the trip. I priced groceries when I went on the island with what was purchased for us. These charges didn’t add up. I was charged a golf cart fee. There was no cart. We paid cash to rent two from someone on harbour island on two different days. We were charged several times for ice. One charge was $47, another $55. I saw four bags of ice during the trip. I also was asked to pay $1800 for boat fuel (stating we went out on both boats every day). This is absolutely untrue. We used one boat but sometimes our captain was out on that boat doing his own thing. The second boat only took us out fishing for one hour on one day. It all seemed a little shady. I did pay an upfront$5000 through PayPal for groceries/fuel.

Middle Cay Paradise

We had an amazing experience from the time we were picked up at the dock, until returning to the dock. The property is very well maintained daily, and the housing was perfect for my family on 19. There was something for all ages to enjoy on the island. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Chef Jasmine prepared wonderful meals three times per day and the food was 5-star restaurant worthy. The daily boat trips to feed the pigs, turtles, and sting rays was special and the water is beautiful. Our older boys also got to fish and dive for conch which was a lot of fun for them. It was also nice to be able to boat a few minutes over to Harbour Island to shop and have lunch at The Dunmore. Lastly, the owner, Sonal, was very helpful and available for anything we needed before we got there and throughout our stay. I highly recommend this property! :) :)

A dream week in the Bahamas

We had ages 5-82 years old and this experience was amazing for everyone of us! Sonal the owner begins communicating with you right away and is always available for questions or concerns. She takes great pride in this property. The property has snorkel gear, paddle boards, kayaks, fishing poles, underwater scooters... and the amount of sea life around the island is incredible. The boatmen-Sydney, Cornell and EJ were absolutely amazing. Every single day was filled with unbelievable adventures to remote beaches, tourist spots (pigs, swings, turtles), bone fishing, snorkeling like I have never experienced (reefs, star fish, sting rays, tons of fish, lobster, conch, turtles...), conch diving, Harbour Island, Spanish wells, Eleuthera, the Atlantic (gorgeous blue water and snorkeling)...... We had one day of big water and we felt completely safe with these experienced boatmen and this big boat. Jasmine the chef prepared meals that exceeded every expectation. We ate lunch out one day and nobody wanted to eat out again-Jasmine is a very gifted chef with a glowing personality!! My mother in law spent a couple of days relaxing on the island reading while the rest of us were adventuring- she couldn't get over the number of lounging spaces to relax:) The gardener was so king and opened coconuts for the kids to drink daily. We loved boating over to Harbour Island in the evenings to body surf on the pink beaches before dinner. Traveling in October was perfect- the weather was wonderful, the water was 84 degrees, and there was not congestion anywhere. I cant imagine having an experience this comprehensive at another rental in the Harbour Island area.

The fishing at the cay is an added bonus. Feel free to find us on Facebook to see the video of the Dolphins playing right by our dock.

The cay is also surrounded by sea turtles.
