About this property

Beautiful Cottage Only 60 Feet from Stunning White Sand Beach

Relax in a reclining beach chair under palm trees with your favourite drink in hand and loved one by your side viewing your private beach only a few steps away.

Spend evenings enjoying a meal with candle light and watch the cruise ships as they pass on the horizon. Walk the most beautiful 2.5 mile white sand beach holding hands with your honey, often by yourselves.

Take an evening walk on this fantastic beach, under a starry, moonlit sky holding hands with your loved one hearing only the waves lapping the sandy shore and your own voices.

The beach is rock free and so is the water. Kids can safely dig & build sand castles until their hearts are content.

The water is child friendly being shallow with a white sand bottom free of sea grass.

Enjoy a lunch on your private patio with 6 seater patio table and umbrella; grill your own on the gas grill on the patio or 'take-in' as you please.


Further Details: All 3 bedrooms each have a Queen Size bed.Downstairs bedroom has a connecting bathroom.with a bath/shower combination. Upstairs js a full size bthroom with a very large shower stall..

The cottage is on a quiet street away from the main road.

Although I was born in Nassau, Bahamas, my Father was born in Spanish Wells.

As a child I enjoyed virtually every Summer Holiday staying here for weeks at a time with my Grand Mother. Some of my most treasured childhood memories are of these times in Spanish Wells with family and friends.

I consider myself very fortunate to have been able to purchase this beautiful cottage & property that all residents agree is located on the absolute 'best' part of the 'Northside beach'

Once you have stayed here you will agree!

About The Owner: I am 61 years old and a business owner in partnership with my brother. I enjoy most of all spending time at the cottage relaxing on the beach with a good book. I work very hard and find these little breaks most gratifying.

Why the Owner Chose Spanish Wells:
Having spent so much of my childhood years vacationing here and this being one of the most beautiful locations in The Bahamas, I jumped at the opportunity.

The Unique Benefits of this Cottage:
Sitting under the palm trees with morning coffee in hand, smelling the fresh sea air overlooking the beach.

Enjoying a light lunch while feeling the seabreezes brush my face.

Walking on the beach holding hands with my honey collecting sea shells.

Having a cold midday drink while under the umbrella on the beach watching the boaters pass by.

Reading a good book or buried in my Suduko puzzle oblivious to the troubles of the world. Relaxing in a reclining beach chair under the trees and having a afternoon nap.

Spanish Wells - a taste of honey

Truly enjoyed our stay. It’s the perfect location. I mean absolutely perfect. We suggested a couple of future improvements. With those improvements we would definitely stay again. The cottage was the perfect size for our small group. We had so much fun being on the beach with perfect weather for 3 weeks.

Perfect family vacation

We had a wonderful stay at Island Waves. The house was very clean and well equipped. Both the owner and property manager were extremely helpful with answering our questions and arranging transportation and excursions. The house sits in the most ideal location on the beach, with the sandbar just a stone’s throw away. We loved the laid back and relaxed vibe of the island and everyone was very friendly. We look forward to returning!

Great Trip!

Had a great stay in Spanish Wells. If you enjoy quiet endless beaches and laid back fishing towns then this is the place for you. The house was perfectly situated directly on the beach with an enormous horseshoe sand bar 50yds off the beach. The caretaker of the house was a wealth of knowledge and helped with any needs we had. Will stay again!

Host profile image
I was born and grew up in Nassau, Bahamas. As a child I spent every summer in Spanish Wells , birthplace of my Father.

Currently I live in Nassau, working with my brother, running our business.

Why they chose this property

I bought this cottage because I spent so many happy summer holidays in Spanish Wells and it is located on what is truly the 'best part' of the Northside beach.

What makes this property unique

There is nothing like vacationing at a place where you have your very own private beach just a few steps away. The views are breathtaking.
