Watch the sunrise every morning
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: Our sixth trip to Elbow Cay, first time at Cookie on the Rocks, but always on the north end where life is quieter and more laid back. We come for the tranquility and beauty, the gentle sound of waves lapping the shore, Vernon’s key lime pie and the best grouper burgers from Munchies. The perfect vacation. All rate a 5

High Hopes
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: High Hopes is in a wonderful location on the north end of Elbow Cay. The only major thing it lacks is a generator and our power did go out for a few hours at night. There could be some improvements done with kitchen but overall the stay was wonderful.I would recommend taking the plastic off the dining room chairs.

Amazing views and comfort at its best!
Rating Details: The property manager was more than 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: Family of 6 has spent the last 3 winter breaks in Hopetown. First time at North End and we loved it!!! High Hopes is decorated with comfort and style in mind. It was exactly as pictured. 3 bathrooms was such a treat for our group! The views and porch were amazing. We loved spending time at the ocean in the morning and then going to Sea of Abaco for sunset. Having the North send Dock nearby was a great help! Having a golf cart was a necessity but we loved the house! The AC was amazing!!!

A beautiful setting, right on the ocean but needs work!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This is the perfect property and setting but there are many things that need to be fixed and updated in order to make it a pleasurable experience. Only 2 burners worked on the outdated stove, my son had to lay on the floor to light the oven. The outdated refrigerator leaked. One bedroom was without ac for 4 nights. The steps to the beach are a mess, so there is no easy access to the beach. The hammock in the gazebo has a huge hole so it is unusable. This could be a 5* property and rental but it really needs to have a completely new kitchen and TLC.

Great Stay
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: House was perfect. The kitchen was very very well equipped. And the bedrooms were all as described. The house is a little ways from town so you will likely need bikes or a golf cart. We stayed in the end of March and we should have booked more things in advance. Carts and boats were all booked up.

Our stay at High Hopes
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed at High Hopes in the past. Lovely home, neat and clean. We love the location on the North end. Our only complaint was that the DVD player did not work and our efforts to get it fixed were ignored. As it gets dark at 7pm, it would have been nice to be able to watch a movie.
