“More Relaxing Than Sleep”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 February 2012
1
person found this review helpful

I'm not even a "beach person," so coming here would seem counterintuitive, but making the trip with some beloved friends and just hanging, chilling, cooking, reading and a little exploring was a perfect getaway. Jesse and Chelsea are gracious, good-natured and accommodating hosts, and the fresh fish every day was a real culinary bonus. Their black Lab Duke is the self-appointed guardian of guests. You just feel safe and protected here. Recommendations: Bring your own, ground coffee. Stop at the liquor and grocery store on your way from the airport and stock up. If you don't have a car, getting supplies is a challenge. Though it's a rustic island, the Andros Beach Club is comfortable and has all the amenities anyone could need, including at least sporadic wifi.

Room Tip: There are only two, plus two single beds on the porch. All are fine. One has a hammock option.

“Incredible Diving Experience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 February 2012

A few weeks back my girlfriend and I were visiting the island and had heard ahead of time that Jesse was a licensed scuba instructor. We had looked into getting certified at home in Ontario but the cost was fairly substantial and your training was all done in an indoor pool. When we were told the cost of getting certified with Jesse and that all training was done in the ocean we were sold instantly.
We did two dives on our first day after some training in shallow water, and to say the least it was incredible. We saw a tonne of every fish imaginable, coral, lobster, moray eels, and the opening to a blue hole. Jesse was great in making sure that the both of us were completely comfortable at all times of the dive and explained everything to us great.

Later in the week we got the chance to dive an inland blue hole as well which was something out of this world. I never would have imagined what was below the surface of these had we not gotten this opportunity. With the top 30 feet being freshwater and the below that the ocean salt-water, the 10 or so feet where the water mixes results in a pretty cool descent.

Had we not already have had our lodging planned out as we were visiting relatives staying on the island we both agreed as well that we would have definelty looked to stay at the beach club. The place is beautiful and sits on an incredible stretch of beach which we never saw another person on the whole time we were there.

All-in-all we had an incredible introduction into the world of scuba diving and could not have asked for a better location or instructor to have done this with. We both look forward to being able to return.

“Tremendous trip - diving and food”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 16 January 2012

What about this trip was excellent? Certainly the diving. Jesse Leopold, the owner, is also the dive master and, in our case, dive instructor. My son and I were able to go through our six dives to obtain our Advanced Open Water certificate. We had an excellent patient teacher, who was also a consummate dive master; everything was always well prepared and ready to go. He was the third dive buddy who knew where to go to find the most interesting sites underwater. On the ocean side, The Labyrinth was the best. It was a path under arches of coral that I suspect was about 80-100 yards long, as well as a couple of shorter ones. On the island, the greatest was the Eldorado Blue Hole. Absolutely exceptional. You jump into a freshwater pond, and head down. At about 60', you go through a halocline which separates the cool fresh water from the warmer sea water. Below this you move into the cave which was not confining at all. It soared above and swept below. You could hover near the stalactites and stone flow shine your flashlights on formations that at times had the look of a bearded face. As we moved back up,, we could see transparent fish and a wispy cloudlike boundary that looked like a miniature view of cirrus clouds at 38,000 feet.
What else was excellent? The food! We loved Maggie's dinners of local seafood (conch, lobster, hogfish, grouper, snapper, etc...) cooked in a variety of island styles. Cerviche, fritters, and the modestly named boiled fish. Boiled fish has a tomato and peppers sauce with just a wonderful flavor. Chelsea (Jesse's wife) made breakfasts to order and heavenly baked goods for dinner desserts. As we were diving lunches were necessarily light.
We appreciated the all-inclusive nature, especially as we were off-season. The taxi with Ms. Lloyd was waiting for us, with an island hospitality that came through with everyone we met.
Finally, I know we were off-season, so I suspect this is not typical of high-season, but it was so peaceful. The beach has a clear view 3/4 mile south to the jetty and about 2 miles north to a little point-let on the coast. In the 5 1/2 days we were there, we saw the next door neighbors walking their dog on the crushed coral beach (sugarlike sand), and one day while motoring back from our dive, we saw 5 kids about a mile up the beach. That was it.
Next time, it won't just be my son and diving, but my wife and daughter, too.

“Christmas away from it all!”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 1 January 2012
1
person found this review helpful

Was looking for a quiet, peaceful spot to spend Christmas with my husband and three children. Andros Beach Club was exactly what we where looking for! Only saw six people the entire week on the beach, when people say you have the beach to yourself, they mean it. It truly was the most relaxing spot I have ever been to. Jesse was very helpful with advice for our trip and everything was perfect, from dinner the 1st night cooked by Maggie to suggesting spots all over the island to snorkel. My daughter was looking to dive but since that never happened we will be back. The house was perfect for our family and we enjoyed having it all to ourselves. I will say, however, that the amount of trash at the high tide line was sad to see. We did our best and collected and bagged endless amounts which a neighbor carted away. By the end of the week a huge stretch was trash free. I would say please keep this small piece of paradise litter free if possible.The one thing Jesse didn't know was if the spot would be any good for my son to kite board. We are happy to say it was perfect. For anyone who is a beginner/intermediate kite boarder this is the perfect spot. The wind was amazing each day with flat shallow water.
We are looking forward to returning

“Beautiful, relaxing, delicious, perfect”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 December 2011

This was by far one of my most favorite vacations ever. Jesse was out of town during our trip, but he left the property in the very capable hands of Liz. She was extremely accomidating, fun to hang out with and gave us enough personal space. She introduced us to some of her friends from the island who were some of the nicest most sincere people i've ever met. The property itself is perfect. it has a couple hammocks, long private beach, two awesome dogs, bikes, grocery stores close by. Liz took us snorkeling with local favorite Roggie and we got to catch our own conch & lobsters, discovered a field of giant starfish, swam with sting rays and a nurse shark and saw the most beautiful coral ever. I would highly recommend staying here and going snorkeling with Roggie. I would love to come back. Thanks Liz and Freeman and Jesse for a wonderful vacation!

Room Tip: rent the whole house and go with a group of quiet friends. sit outside and watch the star show.
