Hope Town's Top Rental: Beachfront sunsets, AC, free boat dock, & close to town!

This renovated home sits on possibly the most ideal homesite on the island: An actual beach-front house, level lot, sunset view, on the calm side, perfect soft sand, crystal clear swimming waters, good privacy, and right at the top end of Hope Town. Brand new air conditioner, new chef's kitchen, open-concept, and new back-up generator, all newly renovated bedrooms, new flooring throughout (not in the pictures yet!), new stainless steel appliances including a second mini fridge (comes in quite handy for bigger groups!), and new clothes washer and dryer. Master bedroom with a king bed, guest bedroom with a queen bed, and a 3rd bedroom which has two full-size beds in a bunk (adult size), and a twin bed (thus sleeps 4 in that room), and a pull out queen size bed in the main room. 2-minute walk from the North-End Public dock ferry drop-off, free boat docking 80 meters from the house at a newly built dock, and a short bike, boat, or rental golf cart to Hope Town and the restaurants, and yes you can cart through town now and south to the rest of the island's attractions as well. It's only a 15 minute ferry or boat ride over to the dock from the mainland, which is only a 5 minute cab from MHH international airport! Great snorkeling right off the beach, especially around the reefs at the north tip. Some renters have even caught bonefish right in front of the house after seeing them swimming by from the deck! We usually have at least 1 or 2 kayaks, some floaties, a paddleboard, etc., although sometimes they are broken or go missing and it takes a bit to order new ones in from the US. We have a great relationship with the cart rental company, so they will drop off carts right at the ferry or boat dock for you, or at the house if you prefer. We also give you a full info guide, custom-curated by us, for most of the great things around the island, best practices at the house, and lots of other good info, and we email this to you well in advance of your trip so you can plan out all the best things! For restaurants, there are many amazing spots just a short cart or boat ride away including Captain Jack's, Firefly, Abaco Inn, Hope Town Inn & Marina, On Da Beach, Mackey's, Golden Kitchen, and more coming soon! However, keep in mind that one of the nicest meals you will have is BBQing looking over the beach and sea, and for that, there's a huge grocery store in Marsh Harbour near where you land (usually a great spot for a first big shop before you come across), and a small grocery store right in Hope Town. For high season (May to August) please try and book at least 6 consecutive nights; however, if you want to stay less, just inquire here and let me know what you're looking for and I will do my best to make it work! There is a reason this is not only the most rated, but also the highest rated rental house in all of Hope Town and Elbow Cay!

Amazing beach!
The beach at this house was beautiful! Perfect house for a family with kids. Rent a boat and explore the rest of the island, take a golf cart into town, or just enjoy the beach right outside your back door!

Charming beach house
Family of 5 had a wonderful time. The house was cozy and nice, and the beach was perfect. Kids played on kayaks and snorkeled to find sand dollars and starfish all day, everyday. The sunsets were gorgeous, Definitely our favorite time to be out on the beach and walking to the North. We would love to go back again and again.

Absolutely fantastic!
We would rate the property and experience 6 stars if we could. It exceeded our expectations and more. The property is extremely well kept aa advertised and right on the beach. Kevin, the very gracious host, is fantastic responding to our questions within a few hours. We can’t recommend this property enough. Thank you Kevin for entrusting us with your beautiful home.

Our Time at Beach House...
Was absolutely incredible! The house was clean and spacious for a family of 6. Also, if you walk out the back door you are on the beach in less than 30 steps. My family and I had a great time and would highly recommend staying here to other travelers. We will probably be back again next summer!

Waterfront home w/spectacular views.
Great property with spacious living area. Amazing beach, perfect for swimming, sandy bottom and shallow. House is in North End which we love. A little further from the settlement but less busy and more private. We've stayed here 2 years in a row and plan on returning.

Amazing North End Experience!
The Beachhouse was a one of kind experience! Not only was the property beautiful with every amenity imaginable, the location was perfect and the service/host was amazing. Kevin was so responsive answered every little question had a great welcoming Google document and knew lots of people on the island who are more than willing to help us with anything we needed. I highly recommend staying at the Beachhouse -you will create memories of a lifetime and have an incredible experience.!

Great stay in Elbow Cay
My family had a wonderful time at The Beach House on our vacation at Elbow Cay. The house was right on the beach and we enjoyed daily walks especially at low tide. We saw stingrays and dolphins and met great neighbors at the close by houses. We enjoyed our coffee every morning on the wonderful covered porch. It was our favorite thing about the house. We can’t wait to visit again soon !

Awesome Getaway
We had a great time staying at the Beach House. The owner was very good about replying to our questions and gave us a detailed list of everything you would need to know about Hope Town. The house was very clean and the views from the porch and kitchen are incredible. Very nice living room area with comfy couches and chairs for relaxing. I hope to get back to the Beach House next year.

Magnificent house, well equipped on the beautiful beach near Hope Town. We have rented many properties on various islands in the Bahamas and this one was top drawer. I would not hesitate to rent this again or recommend it to close friends.

Beautiful Home
We have been coming to Elbow Cay for may years now but this was our first time at this home. The Beach House was wonderful. Great kitchen and a wonderful homey feeling. The beach was gorgeous. We sailed and kayaked every day. My only complaint was that we had to leave.

Loved the house and the location. Since it's a beach vacation I would strongly suggest new beach chairs (they are broken and rusty and uncomfortable) and a new grill. Other than that we loved it.

A Little Slice of Heaven
This beautiful home on the north end of Elbow Cay was a delight for our entire stay! Our family spent much of our time on the porch looking out over the clear blue water. The house is beautifully decorated with lots of great books too! The ride to town on a golf cart is only about 10 minutes and we were able to dock our boat just around the corner. We have plans to return!
