APRIL-MAY SPECIAL, SAVE 1,000! 4-BR BEACHFRONT- Solar+Starlink!- King Beds !

SAVE $1,000 PER WEEK in April and May.
Beach Dream, Spectacular Beach House on Great Guana Cay, Abaco, Bahamas...Wait until you see the amazing, white-pink sand beach that you're staying on...You're going to LOVE IT! There is a gorgeous reef for snorkeling right off the sandy beach in front of the house. A sandy slope to the beach is at the end of the driveway providing easy access...no stairs needed. ----------------------

Beach Dream is NOW SOLAR-POWERED with battery storage that runs the entire house, so you don't have to worry about power outages in almost all situations! High-Speed and dependable STARLINK satellite internet is provided for free throughout the house.

One of the only 4-bedroom houses that is directly on the beach! TWO MASTER SUITES with KING SIZE BEDS! Beach Dream is the entire upper level, featuring the best view... and has all four bedrooms, kitchen and great room on the same floor, which is great for keeping everyone together.
To inquire about availability and more details, please send an email to gkelley1@kc.rr.com or text to 913, four eight eight, 7111. ---------------------


Beach Dream is a luxurious beachfront house that was completely rebuilt with concrete walls, using ICF Construction (Insulated Concrete Forms) to be extra strong and quiet. The house was finished in June 2022, so it's still like new. The main level is the elevated upper level and offers incredible views from the large front deck and the wrap-around deck. There is a wall of windows in the great room and dining room, overlooking the Atlantic Ocean and the gorgeous pink/white sand beach that stretches for miles. It has 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms (3 king beds, 3 twin beds) with a fully-furnished gourmet kitchen, stainless steel appliances and filtered water throughout the house. The house offers an open floor plan including an island with bar stools and a dining room table that seats 8, making Beach Dream perfect for family dinners and entertaining. --------------------

If you need more space....A separate apartment with a separate entrance called Beach Time is the lower level. It is 2 bedrooms and 2 baths (both are king suites) with a large gourmet kitchen and great room. The rate is $425 per night. The lower level apartment will usually not be occupied unless you add it to the upper level rental. Lower level video on YouTube .com/watch?v=ki9KNuzNFCk

In peak season, we prefer stays of a week or longer with a Saturday check-in... but please check with us if you need something else and we will try to work it out! -------------------


If you like the best, Beach Dream is for you...it's EXTRAORDINARY! Every detail has been beautifully executed, from the wood-grain floors to 10' ceilings in the bedrooms and the vaulted cypress tongue and groove ceilings in the great room. ---------------------------

It's easy to get Guana Cay...Once you arrive at the Marsh Harbour airport and clear customs, grab a taxi (very easy, they're waiting out front) about 10 minutes to the Guana ferry dock. The G&L Ferry runs a few times a day and it’s a short, 35 minute scenic ride to Guana Cay. ----------------------------


About Great Guana Cay: Great Guana Cay is a barrier island in the Abaco chain of islands in the Bahamas. The third largest barrier reef sits just off shore, offering unlimited snorkeling and SCUBA diving opportunities. A gorgeous reef is right in front of the house that is perfect for snorkeling and is only a short swim away with an easy beach entry. The island has about 150 residents but there are quite a few second homeowners and visitors. Guana Cay is a beautiful tropical island with gorgeous beaches that are never crowded and the color of the water is unbelievable! It is secluded yet has all the necessities. -----------------------------


There are a few restaurants and bars, as well as a well-stocked grocery store and a liquor store. Just down the beach, World-famous Nipper’s Beach Bar and Grill has very good food and they are family-friendly with a swimming pool. It’s always fun and people come from all of the neighboring islands to visit, especially on Sunday afternoon for Sunday-FunDay. Grabber's Bar & Grill is fun, too and a great place to watch the beautiful Guana sunset. Kidd's Cove Bar & Grill has re-opened on Front Street on the harbour. Beach Dream is within walking distance to all the fun, but most guests rent a golf cart. -------------------------------


Pack your snorkel and dive gear…a spectacular reef is right off the beach in front of the house. Dive Guana offers full service PADI scuba diving and snorkeling trips. Dive Guana also has any gear you need...the water is very clear and the diving is gorgeous. If you would like to rent a boat during your vacation, we highly recommend the boats at Dive Guana. It’s conveniently located on Guana Cay and they rent nice 20ft. to 26ft. boats for fishing, diving or exploring and are reasonably priced. --------------------------


Bedroom Details: All of the bedrooms have been furnished with high thread-count sheets and bedding. The master bedroom has a king bed with French doors that open onto the front deck and gorgeous colors of the ocean. The master bath has double sinks with a shower tiled to the ceiling. The second master also has a king bed with its own entrance into the bathroom that can also be accessed from the hallway. It has a tub/shower that is also tiled to the ceiling. The half bath is adjacent to the third and fourth bedrooms. The third bedroom has a king bed and the fourth bedroom has 2 bunk beds and a twin bed. A Pack-n-Play is available if needed. -----------------------------


Rain water is held in tanks below the house. The water is filtered twice before it enters the house, so it’s tastes excellent out of any faucet. It’s filtered a third time through the icemaker and water dispenser. The rain water has all of the natural minerals and it doesn’t have any chemicals, it’s the only water we drink when we're there. ----------------------


Restaurants and Shops on Great Guana Cay : World-famous Nipper’s Beach Bar and Grill is family-friendly with a swimming pool and consistently excellent food. It’s always fun and people come from all of the neighboring islands to visit, especially on Sunday afternoon for the weekly Pig Roast Party. Friday nights are also popular for Chicken-In-Da-Bag or Conch. Don’t forget Grabber’s for dinner and to watch the spectacular sunsets....and join visitors and second-homeowners on Wednesday night for Wing Night. Kidd's Cove Bar & Grill re-opened in June 2023, cooking up specials periodically. Orchid Bay Yacht Club & Marina offers a full-service marina. ----------------------------


Edmond Pinder, in addition to Dive Guana, also offers lobster spearing and snorkeling for conch with a shore lunch, as well as island hopping excursions, fishing, and private guide services in your boat or a rental boat. ------------------------------


Please contact me with any questions you may have. If you would like to reserve Beach Dream, just let me know. You’re going to LOVE IT!!! -------------------------------

Holiday Getaway

We had 8 family members stay here over Christmas and we had a wonderful time! The house is beautiful and spacious, with amazing views of the ocean. The white sandy beach is right in front of the house, and there is a great wrap around deck to sit and enjoy the sunsets. Although there is Solar Power to the house, we did lose power a few times for several hours overnight. The house is very easy to get to and was well stocked (plenty of cookware, towels, beach chairs, etc.) We truly had a great time here!

You have to see it for yourself!

This was our first time in the Abacos and it was everything we were told and more. The house was truly a "dream" house. You really just have to see it for yourself. Our favorite spot to snorkel was directly in front of the house right off the beach. Beautiful reef with an insane amount of marine life!! Grant was great and incredibly attentive. We can't wait to go back!!! Thank you Grant. See you soon!!!

Magical!

This is a fabulous property on a spectacular beach. There's a wonderful patch reef within easy swimming distance. The house is beautiful and comfortable. It is well stocked with everything you need and then some. Our stay could not have been better! Note that there are stairs and a fairly steep beach access, tough on older knees. Thank you for a fabulous week!

Beach Dream

Our stay at Beach Dream was fantastic. Two families (4 adults and 5kids) were very comfortable and had plenty of space. The property is in a fantastic spot. Easy access to dining or shopping on the key. The reef out front provided hours of entertainment for all of us each day. Very quiet place (other than Nippers on Sunday afternoon and that wasn’t even bad). Owner and property manager were very helpful to us as we were newbies to the Abacos. We look forward to our return (hopefully soon).

Perfect

This beauty sits majestically 10 feet above the beautiful white beach w clear water that shows the reefs just 30 feet off shore. While snorkeling, I saw angel fish and plenty of other fish hiding around the coral. Central air, high ceilings, great kitchen and a deck to sit n watch the surf. 3 minute golf cart ride to the grocery store or Grabbers. Nippers is 3 houses down the beach! PERFECT!

Great Week on Great Guana Cay

Our family of two adults, two high school seniors and a middle schooler stayed the week of March 23-30 2019. The house (Beach Dream) was everything as described. Everyone was very comfortable, the kitchen had everything we needed and the location on the beach and being 3 doors down from Nipper's was perfect. I would recommend Beach Dream to anyone looking for a relaxing beach vacation. Grant Kelly (owner) and Gina the caretaker were great to work with and very informative about the ins and outs of staying on the island. We'll be back.

Amazing Stay

Grant's property was fantastic. There were 4 of us with loads of room to spare, it easily accommodates many more. You couldn't beat the views from the deck. Everything was well appointed, everything we went looking for, we found it. The beach was gorgeous but pretty rough so we only swam a couple of times but it was no problem to go to the calm side for swimming. Snorkelling was pretty good as well but again rough (I'm not a strong swimmer)The proximity to Nippers was a couple of minutes walk and very close to the "downtown" area and Grabbers which was lots of fun. Every question was answered by Grant promptly and he gave us lots of great tips on the Cay. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again or recommend it to anyone who asked. Thank you Grant for a wonderful week!

Fastest week of my life!!

You know how they say, “time flies when you’re having fun”? Well staying at this AMAZING house in the most beautiful location on Earth made this saying a reality. My family and I, along with 2 friends, (7 people in total) spent a week here from December 8-15th. From the beach with the softest sand I’ve ever felt where we maybe saw 3 other people the entire week, to the snorkeling in the reef right in front of the house, to going on rides around the island on the golf cart, we couldn’t have asked for a better week. While there, we saw a rainbow 4 of the 7 days and just had an absolute blast! The locals on this island are some of the friendliest people you will ever meet and we all agreed that we never felt safer in any place that we had ever traveled. A local right next door even invited us into his house and cooked us fresh lobsters! The only thing I could say is that I wish we had gone for longer than a week because each day was so much fun that it went by in a flash. TRUST ME, you HAVE to stay at Beach Dreams and Great Guana Cay!!!

Wonderful place on the beach!!

This house was everything you could want for a place on the beach. We went for a family vacation before Easter. Great Guana Cay is very laid back and easy to maneuver around. We had 2 golf carts and a boat. Visited some of the other islands. Went snorkeling, even on the reef right in front of the house. The house is very well appointed. Just when you thought, 'oh they probably don't have this" there was the pair of binoculars that you wished you brought! Would definitely stay here again.

Total Thumbs-Up Vacation Spot

I wanted to have an active vacation for our family of 20 and 30-something children. A friend recommended Beach Dream as "the one place she has returned to as a vacation spot." Knowing this friend, that is high praise indeed. We booked Beach Dream and spent, what everyone in the group described as, one of the best vacations ever. We rented a golf cart from Donna's Carts for the destinations further from town, but we could easily walk anywhere else, from the grocery to Grabbers. We ate twice at Kidd's Cove and enjoyed apps at Nippers and Grabbers. The snorkeling off of Grabbers is great for beginners because it is shallow and often calmer than the Atlantic. We rented a boat from Dive Guana and were treated very nicely by Troy and Maria. But Beach Dream itself was the star - it was the hub, the place we all returned to to eat, play games, watch the ocean, drink morning coffee, share stories and make memories. Thank you for creating a home with such a good feeling. I think we left some good ones for the next group!

Beautiful Spot Overlooking the Atlantic

We just came back from a family vacation to Great Guana Cay and stayed at Beach Dream. The house is beautiful and within walking distance of pretty much everything on Guana Cay. The views overlooking the ocean are spectacular. This home is perfect for a family vacation and had all of the amenities of home! We rented a boat from Troy at Dive Guana and did some island hopping. He also told us some places to snorkel on Sea of Abaco because Hurricane Matthew had just passed through and the water was quite rough on the Atlantic side! The waves were fun for boogie boarding!! I would definitely recommend this property! Make sure to visit Nipper's!!

Beach Dreams come true again for our family!!!

We just returned late last night from another wonderful trip to Great Guana Cay and the fabulous Beach Dream home!!! This was our second trip to this fantastic home in the last 17 months and we were not disappointed. The home is beautifully situated on top of a beautiful sand dune with sweeping views of the ocean and fantastic reef during low tide. We had 4 adults and 4 children, ages 14-17, with us this time and between the snorkeling on the reef, and with Troy from Dive Guana, the visits to Hope Town and the lighthouse, Man-O-War Cay and the Albury Sail Shop for a one of a kind bag, we had little time for disagreements or lack of activities. Nippers, Grabbers, and SunSetters where great places to enjoy local flavors, from the food, to the drinks, to the locals themselves. If you want to just stay low key, Beach Dream is a great home for entertaining, allow the view, beach, and oceans be the host. Sit on the deck and watch the waves and clear blue water dance in the brilliant sun!! Return to the same spot at night and look at the stars as they put an a light show rivaled by none. The four bedrooms and great open concept gives you the ability to mingle with family or friends, or get your alone time in two master suites or two smaller comfortable rooms, great for the kids to run off to and get their technology time between swimming and wonderful walks along the softest sand on any beach we have experienced. I thank Grant and Kelley for opening up their home to families who like to travel and get the local feel. Gina the caretaker deserves a big thank you as well. Meeting us the the dock and leading us up to the home makes for an excellent arrival. Her help in getting us out on time to catch the departing ferry is very helpful, particularly when you are finding every excuse to stay that one extra minute to prolong your fantastic stay. So if you are looking for a commercial, vanilla, cookie cutter vacation, the big box resorts are the way to go. If you are looking for a relaxing, stress free, get to know the locals, and become one with the community, as much as you can in a week, and you want a private beach feel on one of the top beaches and the 3rd largest reef system in the world than your dreams will come true at Beach Dream!!!

Awesome!

Family members and I are currently at Beach Dream. Tomorrow is our last day. We all had a wonderful time. We rented a boat from Dive Guana. We went to Hope town yesterday. The weather was perfect. We stopped in a couple bays and relaxed in the beautiful waters. The home is great! Great location, the beach is awesome! Everything you need is supplied. This is our first time to the island. We will definitely return again.

DREAM VACATION AT BEACH DREAM

Great place, great location, great house and outstanding accommodations on a beautiful beach. We were literally steps from the beach and the crystal clear waters. At times, we were the only ones on the beach for our morning walks. What else needs to be said. Get there as fast as you can. Grant, the owner, was very accommodating and made the rental process fast and easy. Our caretakers, Gina and Robert, went beyond the call of duty to make our stay a memorable one. Oh by the way, did I mention we were within walking distance of Nippers, Grabbers and other local restaurants in the settlement. We did have a golf cart which made it possible to explore other parts of the island as well. We will definitely return to Beach Dreams as soon as possible.

Great owner

Although our travel dates did not allow us to book this beauty, I can say dealing with the owner was excellent. He was quick to reply to our inquiry and even tried to accommodate our dates by offering other properties he knew of. He provided island information and commuting info as well. It will be our next vacation home the next time we visit GC. Book early. The good homes go quickly. I would recommend this home based on our dealings with the owner and his candor alone. Thanks again Grant, I'm sorry things didn't allow us to stay at your home this trip.

Beach Dreaming....

My husband and I shared Beach Dream with 6 twenty something yound adults. The four bedrooms allowed everyone to have their own bed and privacy, yet share an open, spacious living area with flat screen TV and every channel available. There was an iPod dock for music and wifi as well. The kitchen is very well equipped. We used it daily. Location, location, location- nearby Nippers and walkable to Grabbers. Will definitely return.
