About this property

Single Story Beachfront House with Deck Overlooking Bay

Amberjack House is located right on the Northside Beach in Spanish Wells, Bahamas. If you are not familiar with the Northside Beach, it is one of the most beautiful, quiet, serene stretches of shoreline in the world. It's a sleepy beach with no crowds, white sand, and crystal clear water.

The house has three bedrooms and two baths, is 2100 square ft, and sleeps eight comfortably. The master bedroom, living room, and dining room each have a set of french doors that open up to a large deck that overlooks the beach.

This home features wide open living spaces, vaulted ceilings, wall to wall tile floors throughout, a modern, state-of-the-art kitchen, and very nice, yet comfortable furnishings. It is fully air conditioned. The kitchen is well equipped with plenty of cookware and dishes for a crowd. There are four flatscreen TV's and several DVD players, one in the living room and one in each bedroom. The house was built in 2008, which is very new for Spanish Wells. There is also free wifi with signal boosters so that you can get a wifi signal throughout the house and on the outside deck.

In 2016, we added a new boardwalk and beach deck from the house deck that extends directly to the edge of the beach. It's perfect for coffee in the morning, watching the kids play on the beach in the afternoon, and cocktails in the evening. It's really nice for when you want to hang out on the beach but don't feel like trekking all your stuff out into the sand. You just stroll down the boardwalk and kick back on one of our Adirondack chairs.

In 2019, we added a new beach wall at the end of our yard just beyond the boardwalk. Many of the beach houses on Spanish Wells have a beach wall. It has a convenient set of stairs for easily accessing the beach and there is now a nice, private sunbathing area above the wall.

We also provide two kayaks.

What sets our house apart from other beach house rentals on Spanish Wells? The open floor plan, large covered deck, and the boardwalk to our beach side deck. The large rooms and open floor plan are unique for the island. Most of the beach fronts are older homes with tiny rooms. And very few of the newer homes have an open living room / dining room / kitchen area that opens up to a large, shaded beach deck. And the house is the only rental home that we know of on Spanish Wells that has a boardwalk that extends down to a beach side deck.

The house is located on 11th St right on the beach on the north side of the island. Note that there is a cemetery on Main Street from 10th to 11th. The cemetery is behind the house opposite the beach. It's a very pretty, very old little cemetary. It's quiet and provides extra privacy for the house. The landscaping behind our house hides it completely from view.

To get to Spanish Wells from the US, you want to fly to the North Eleuthera airport (ELH). There are direct flights from Atlanta, Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and Nassau. The house is about 30 minutes from the airport via taxi and water taxi.

To arrange the taxi and water taxi, give Pinder Taxi a call at 242-359-7135 or google 'Pinder Taxi Spanish Wells' to get their contact info. They usually charge $15 per person one way.

They will drop you off right by the golf cart rental company. A four person golf cart usually costs around $250 per week. Google 'Harbourside Rentals Spanish Wells' for their website and to reserve a golf cart.

We have had a lot of people ask about refunds with regards to the Covid-19 pandemic. Now that things are pretty much back to normal, we will not be providing Covid related refunds.

We spend about six weeks per year at Amberjack House. Since we spend so much time there, we've tried to make it as nice and comfortable as possible so that we can really enjoy ourselves while on vacation. Hopefully you will find our beach house as fun and relaxing as we do!

Perfect
This was our first time to the island and absolutely felt at home. Location is perfect with a gorgeous beach right out back. Host provided so much, including good advice on who ro contact for various activities of interest. This was more house that the 2 of us needed, but would rent it again for the location.

Pure Bliss
If you are wondering if this is the house you should rent for your Spanish Wells vacation…. STOP wondering! This was our third trip to Spanish Wells and our first time renting the Amberjack House. Hands down the best decision we have ever made. Gorgeous house and spectacular location on the beach made this vacation the best one yet. From the covered palapa to sit under when you need a break from the sun to the huge sandbar literally feet away from the shore at low tide, I’m pretty sure my vocabulary was reduced to “OMG, look at that water”. I know I had to have said it at least 100 times.. a day. Rented a golf cart from Harbor Side rentals and arranged transportation with Pinder’s. The owners were fantastic to work with. Already planning our next visit!

Best beach ever
We had a great stay. We enjoyed the well appointed home. Nice size master and bath. 2 other rooms slept 3 each. Nice deck and BBQ. Best part of the home is the easy access to North Beach. The elevated wood deck path leads you straight to a beautiful gazebo. There are deck chairs to lounge on and have coffee on the mornings while you stare at the amazing beach. We rolled the BBQ out there and grilled right on the sand. Amazing stay! Will return again

Comfortable beachfront on our favorite island
Amberjack house is in a wonderful location. The sea wall and sheltered deck area and ample sea-side covered porch provide perfect spots to enjoy the beautiful views and breezes. There is beach below the wall except at the high tide and huge shallow area for playing or relaxing in the water. Beds are comfy and there is plenty of space.

We (Ryan & Heidi) are from Ohio and have two boys ages 10 and 11.

Why they chose this property

The beach of course! The floor plan is really nice too. It's great to have everything on one floor. We also really like the large, shaded deck that overlooks Northside Beach as well as a beachside deck that is right on the beach. It's also within walking distance of just about everything in Spanish Wells. And finally, the fact that it is a newer build (2008) is a big plus. Many of the homes in Spanish Wells are rather old.

The large rooms and open floor plan are unique for the island. Most of the beach fronts are older homes with very small rooms. And very few of the newer homes have an open living room / dining room / kitchen area that opens up to a large beach deck.

The large deck that overlooks the beach is also rare on the island. And the house is the only rental home that we know of on the island that has a boardwalk that extends down to the edge of the beach with a deck right on the beach.

What makes this property unique

The beach, single story, location, french doors to the large shaded deck, very open floor plan, and boardwalk down to the beach deck that is right on the beach.
