Amazing Spring Break Trip
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had an amazing time staying at the Wild Orchid House. Pam was awesome at helping us find things to do and the house was incredible. It was also really nice to have the hotel next door for easy access to drinks and amazing meals. The only downside was that it was very windy while we were there and this house is on the Atlantic side of the island so there were a few days we could not use the beach. But otherwise we would highly recommend and stay again!

Gorgeous spot!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is an absolutely perfect property for 6-8 guests. The house/adjacent cottage has wonderful bedrooms and bathrooms, well appointed kitchen, ample space at the dining table, comfortable living room, and patios. The salt water pool is conveniently right out the back door with a stunning view of the ocean. A short walk down the stairs to the beach. I highly recommend this lovely property and hope to stay again on a future trip! Absolute gem of a house and Pam and Keenan were great to work with, they also provided helpful info on our visit, car rental, all we would need to know.

Perfect Bahamian Get Away
This was an absolutely beautiful home and property- the pictures and descriptions do not do it justice! We stayed with 2 other couples and it was perfect. It feels very secluded and private, and we never felt like we were bothering anyone or being bothered by anyone. Dinner next door was perfect and easy to get to. All management were so kind and helpful and got back to us quickly. It is the perfect spot for families or friends of all ages. Defintiely will be rebooking to take my adult children.
