The Bahamian Village consist of two beautiful cabins and a bar & grill along a beautiful bay on the carribean sea. We were looking for a remote location with ample privacy and this certainly met our needs. However, we were also looking for a beautiful beach, which this lacked. If your only objective is to sit by water, this is a nice location, but limited alternative activities without at least 15-20 minute drives. But overall good deal and nice villas.
Pros:
- Cabins are new, nicely furnished, and well ladi out.
- Full kitchen and mini-frig were great addition.
- At most there will be one other group at the location, so nice privacy. However, cabins are very close together.
- Location in the middle of the island was convenient, allowing us access to both north and south parts of long island.
Cons:
- Have to drive to access anything. Bar and grill has very limited menu.
- Lacks real beach! Biggest issue with 'the village.' No where to swim or even walk along. View was nice, but not spectaculor
- Lacks polish/ amenities including propand for grill, ice (small fig couldn't produce much, snorkeling gear (hard to find any to rent on the island).
- Maps/ information about the island. Cheryl, the manager, was very nice and drew us a map, but would have been nice if there was information readily at hand.
Cautions:
- Roads are very, very rough. One main road is in good condition, but roads to attractions unmarked, gravel, and rough.
- Bahamian time. Everyone moves at own pace which is usually between slow and very slow. Also, we schedule 'Brian' (recommended by the hotel) to pick us up for a fishing trip and he didn't show. Very dissappointing.
