Not enough good things to say about the trip and the host! Chrissy had everything set up for us. Getting there was a breeze! Lovely island with the nicest people. The kids loved the golf cart, the beaches, driving around looking at Christmas lights. Would highly recommend!

The house was beautifully decorated. It was clean and well equipped with everything we needed. The washer and dryer was a huge plus. You can walk to the water in the backyard and go paddle boarding or kayaking which was great. The island is small so everything is close by. A golf cart was included which was also perfect. Overall great stay!

Perfect!

My husband and I absolutely love Fish Fever. The cottage has everything you need and furnishings are top drawer. Shane and Christy have done a marvelous job designing the cottages and using creative landscaping around each one creating a little tropical paradise. You couldn’t ask for nicer hosts as they were gracious in greeting us and answering all our questions. We will definitely be back.

Wonderful Experience

The property and cottage were perfect, new and clean. Beach sand on the property was a great idea. Use of a golf cart and water toys were a huge bonus. Host couldn’t be more responsive and accommodating. Fish Fever was an unforgettable experience!

Perfect spot to unwind, disconnect and recharge!

Christy and Shane are the perfect hosts with the perfect property. Communication before and during our stay was flawless, and we wanted for nothing during our stay. Fish Fever had everything we needed and the location was quiet and beautiful. And a trip with Shane and Shawn on Seagillian Life Adventures was a definite highlight (sea turtles, stingrays, snorkeling, etc) We will be back in 2022!

Will be back….

We absolutely enjoyed our stay at this property and will be back again at some point. It was a relatively quiet time of year and not a very touristy area, which was exactly what we were looking for on this vacation. Enjoyed getting around the island on the golf cart provided, which allowed for access to several great restaurants and the stores on the islands. The hosts were very responsive from the start and graciously set up transportation to/from the airport as well as met us at the ferry to show us to the house when we arrived. I would recommend this property to anyone.

Second honeymoon!

Christy and Shane are amazing hosts. We had an absolute blast. Their property has everything you need for an amazing vacation. If you don't like it, you're the problem! Also, book Seagillian Life for a charter boat tour. It's a must.

Ten days at Fish Fever

We were met at the dock by Christy & Shane. Shane rode with us in our golf cart and gave us a tour of the island, on our way to Fish Fever. They made sure we were settled in and left us alone. During our stay, we had trouble with our golf cart and they took care of it immediately. Fish Fever was everything they advertised. We loved the porch and spent many afternoons painting, taking pictures, and cocktails. Thank you Christy & Shane

Bahamian Haven

What an amazing stay! We have been coming to the Bahamas for years and this was our first big trip as a family of four. Christy the host was very accommodating. The house had beautiful ocean views while not an actual beach it is ocean front and they have a sand area with cabana and beach chairs, we loved taking the boys out on the kayaks (they provide) in the morning and saw lots of starfish, fish and some turtles! Our four year old was even able to join in on some snorkeling with the calm ocean! Absolute heaven! My only complaint which is not a deal breaker is there wasn't a lot of storage space and being there over a week, it would have been nice to have. We can't wait for our next adventure at Fish Fever

Remote. Authentic experience with locals.

Everyone talks about how the hosts are SO accommodating. Ditto. Concierge service. Spanish Wells is remote. The exact opposite of Harbor Island. If you are adventurous… this is for you. We stayed at both SW and HI. Great balance. Don’t be deterred by the ferries… very easy. The cottage was new and immaculate. There are three cottages, and you still have privacy. We shared a dinner with other guests… fresh fish from our outing on Shane’s boat with Daryll. I am also a VRBO host and was so impressed. A unique vacation to remember.

Relaxing stay with a fantastic host

Our family of 4 just got back from Fish Fever for Spring Break and despite a few days of bad weather we had a blast. The location is great for relaxing and enjoying Spanish Wells. Christy was phenomenal as a host and made sure to answer our questions and help out any way she could. She is the reason we would book the place again. She setup taxi cabs from the airport to and from the ferry dock which made the transfer seamless and picked us up from the dock and gave us a tour of the island and pointed out the essential restaurants, stores, and beaches. The location is great and the availability of golf cart and kayaks, paddle boards are a bonus. Sandbar restaurant is right down the street and the rest of Spanish Wells is about a 10-15 ride away. Our kids loved hanging out in the back along the water, we saw turtles, starfish, blowfish, and sting rays. We’ll be planning our next trip soon.

Pictures are spot on and is a really nice place to stay

We went to relax and get in the boat and snorkel & fish. First of all Christy and Shane met us at the ferry dock and took us to the house as it went really smooth. Spanish Wells & Russell Island are laid back low key islands. If you want low key & no frills this is for you. We loved the Island as soon as we got there. The house has everything you need and is decorated for the islands perfectly. The beach is really nice and has anything you need. April is a great time to come as it is not too hot and before the no see-ums come out in force. Fishing Fever met our needs and work out for us really well. After trying all the restaurants, Wreckers was by far the best. Snapper, Wahoo & of course lobster. There chef is the best as far as cooking the fish right. We will be back to SW/RI in the future as it was truly a great vacation.

Unforgettable - In the best way!

Our trip to Spanish Wells was truly unforgettable. Christy and Shane's charming house has ample space and amenities. A stone's throw away from the beach and incredible views from the deck - perfect for carefree, morning swims! The accessible golf cart provided easy access around the island whenever we wanted to explore. Overall, a win in every category. Christy and Shane were extremely responsive and provided great information and recommendations. The excursion they coordinated with Dwayne/Seagillian Life was one of the best (if not the best) boating trips we have ever taken! Would not hesitate to recommend this little oasis and cannot wait to be back to Spanish Wells - it is an incredible place with some of the nicest people! When you come, be sure to have bug spray for the pesky mosquitos if sitting on the deck at night! :) Thank you again, Christy and Shane!

Spanish Wells/Russel Island Adventures/Private/Relaxing

Our family generally takes adventure vacations mixed with traveling a little off the beaten path. Although there were plenty of friendly locals with whom to interact, we also experienced a private backyard paradise complete with paddle boards, kayaks, and great snorkeling. Please bring water shoes for the non-sand beach areas as the coral can be sharp. If you prefer sandy-bottom beaches, there is plenty of access to beaches where walking out in white sand in knee-high waters for 600 meters is standard. Besides offering transportation with use of the owner’s golf cart, there are many water charters available with a day or two scheduling advance. The house was clean and very comfortable, and Christy and Shane were very accommodating. Taxis to the Spanish Wells port from the N. Eleuthera airport are plentiful. Even though we usually don’t make repeat trips, we may have to break our “rule” for this one, but will definitely encourage our friends to try it out. In fact, there are three cottages on the property that would make a great 3 or 2 family vacation very comfortable.

Fish Fever Fantastic!

Christy and Shane met us at the Ferry dock and shuttled us and all our luggage to the house. On the way they gave us a tour of the island and pointed out where to shop, eat, and drink. We arrived at the cutest house ever! There are three houses on the property and we stayed in Fish Fever. Perfect location and setting for the 3 of us. If you have a group i would recommend renting all 3! The houses are all brand new and well stocked! Paddle boards, sea kayaks, day bead on the beach, lounge chairs, fire pit etc. They have really put a lot of love and thought into this place. I would recommend bringing water sandals or shoes for getting in and out of the water. It’s a bit rocky but we managed in flip flops... There is also an incredible beach just a shot golf cart away. I would also recommend going fishing with Shane on the Seagillian charters!! My husband went out for a half day and came back with 9 lobsters, Strawberry Groupers, and a Trigger fish...amazing day, priceless! Would not hesitate in staying here!! So much fun! Thank you Christy and Shane for a great stay! Hope to see you again!
