Unfortunately, with no naturally occurring water source on the island we rely solely on collecting and manufacturing our own water. As such, water is a precious commodity which is why there are NO laundry facilities available at the house. We limit the use of our laundry equipment to be used by our cleaners only. If laundry is necessary for your stay there are several options on the island from self serve laundromats to full service that will wash and fold your laundry, all for a nominal fee. Our caretaker (local) is available for any needs
________________________________

We have taken extra precautions to assure that our home remains as clean as possible. After each stay all high touch surfaces including tables, hard-backed chairs, doorknobs, handrails, light switches, remotes, wardrobe and cabinet handles, desks, toilets, sinks, bedside tables, and kitchen and bathroom surfaces will both be cleaned and disinfected.

Although we do have a supply of hand sanitizers throughout the house we do suggest bringing extra hand sanitizer, disinfectant spray and anti-bacterial soap with you.

We do have WiFi service throughout the house and TV's where you can stream programs but please keep in mind that this is still the Bahamas so speeds and connectivity might not always be what you are accustomed to back home.

Paradise Found
First time staying at Catch A Wave but not the last. The house was perfect and the outdoor area did not disappoint! Thank you to Hermanette & Jack the caretakers as well, were at the dock upon our arrival, rented us a golf cart for the week, even suggested Captain Mike for a charter boat experience, exploring the other surrounding islands. We would highly recommend this property.

Great house, great location, great time!
My husband and I took our sons and their wives. The house was perfect for 3 couples. The caretaker, Jack, took great care of us when needed. The house is a short walk to Sea Spray Marina where we kept a small rented boat. There is also a great Tiki bar, food truck and corn hole at the Marina. The owners answered all of my questions quickly. We had THE BEST time on this trip!!!

Much needed vacation!
Great place to stay with all the amenities needed for a great vacation in the Bahamas with friends! Just a short distance from the sea spray marina and just a short golf cart ride to anywhere else on elbow cay. Perfect kitchen supplies for cooking every night! We loved the outdoor George Foreman grill! Everyone we met was so friendly! We will be back again!

Great to be back!
We returned to Hope Town after a five year hiatus due to the hurricane and pandemic. It was great to see how well the island has bounced back and so many of the familiar friendly faces. An ideal vacation for us with surprise pool toys/games/etc at the property for our kids and close proximity to Tahiti Beach which is their absolute favorite place in the world. Owner (Jane) was so helpful and available whenever needed, and Caretaker (Jack) was awesome as well, but other than that we were happily left to a peaceful family vacation on our own which was exactly what we were looking for. We'll be back!

Amazingly beautiful and comfortable home!
The house was wonderful for our stay! We had 5 adults all comfortable and very happy with the home. The house had everything we needed and some amazing views too. The upstairs bedroom's AC unit was out, but repaired for us in a very reasonable time. We stayed in February so the temperature was comfortable over all. We all completely enjoyed our week! Highly recommend this home!!

Family Vacation
My family had a fun filled 9 days on Elbow Cay staying in Catch A Wave from 8/22 - 8/31. Even though it was the start of off season (which we didn't realize) and some of the restaurants/shops were closed we still did a lot. We rented a boat from Conch Pearl Boats (MOW), explored the other cays, fished, spear fished, snorkeled, bar/restaurant hopped, climbed the lighthouse, went to Tahiti beach, etc. Our family consisted of 6 adults, my husband, our two adult "kids", and their significant others and Catch A Wave was comfortable and very spacious giving everyone their own space when needed but also had plenty of spaces inside and outside to come together and just hang out and relax. I will miss waking up and having my coffee on the deck every morning listening to the waves and feeling the breeze. Jack (the caretaker) was always there whenever we needed anything, he and his wife are a big asset to Catch A Wave. We will be back...

Great time at Catch a Wave!
The house was exactly like the listing showed - pretty, clean, and comfortable. The owners were a pleasure to deal with and the caretakers were exceptional. I would highly recommend Catch A Wave to anyone looking for a great place to stay on Elbow Cay. The high hill provides a nice ocean view and the breeze was nice too. The kids walked to the beach and it was a short ride or walk to SeaSpray Marina. While we preferred this end of the island, it is a long (10 min) golf cart ride into town for those who visit there. We spent most of our time on the boat visiting other islands and had great meals at Pete's Pub in Little Harbor, Dock & Dine on Man O War, and Baker's Bay and Orchid Bay on Guana.

Great House
House, location and views were great...property manager was incredible..only complaint is owner had washer and dryer in a locked owners closet and a security camera on it. With children (9,6,5) it was a huge inconvenience as we packed thinking a rental house would have access to washer/ dryer. We asked owner to make an exception and she explained that cleaning clothes in the sink was a great option 🤔 We would not rent property because of that in the future... but if that’s not on your list of necessary amenities - great house.

Really enjoyed the Island and found it to be very clean and safe.
Catch-A-Wave was very clean and offers everything you need from kitchen equipment, beach chairs, beach towels, pool, very large porch, internet and much more. We only used the king sized bed and found it to be comfortable. The owner was very helpful in arranging the rental for the golf cart as well as answering any other questions we had. The house is close to Tahiti Beach which we highly recommend. The deck offers plenty of seating for shade or sun. The views are wonderful although there is a house that is fairly close to the back of Catch-A-Wave when you are sitting on the deck. We did not find it a problem for us as no one was ever there. The grocery store that is close to the house seemed to offer as much as any other store on the island. We agree with what others said that the house is decorated very nice and is very comfortable. We found the owner and caretaker very helpful and easy to deal with and had a wonderful time!
