Dreamy Bahamian Holiday Cottages
December 9th, 2009
Bahamian Cottages are dreams come true.
The Bahamas has whole islands full of fairy tale cottages on famous Harbour Island and sleepy Elbow Cay (See “High Hopes”).
But, just beyond the bright lights of Nassau, you’ll also find stunning hideaway cottages with beaches or ocean views, still with easy access to shopping, nightlife and the airport. They are popular with local residents and visitors alike.
“Sea Glass Cottage” on the Eastern Point waterfront of New Providence has had only a few tenants in its history, the latest a Supreme Court Justice who stayed for 7 years. (A very young South American rock star tried to book it, but her parents found it too far from her recording studio at Compass Point.) It’s available NOW for short term rentals, at $2,000 per week or long term, complete with standby generator and fishing lines. Pick up real sea glass on the beach.
Draped in brilliant bougainvillea, ”Puravida Cottage” crowns a hill just east of Nassau. It commands 180 degree elevated views of the Nassau Harbour and, more closely, of historic Blackbeard’s Tower. The infamous pirate controlled the island from here! It’s stylishly furnished and full of original art.
There are, of course, Bahamian cottages for sale from $135,000 for Conch Cottage in Palm Shores, Abaco, to millions for cottages with private islands attached (Cornish Cay)!
And then, we have Sandyport on New Providence, a gated village of charming cottages of all sizes, shapes and colours, linked by canals and enjoying its own private tennis courts, swimming pools and private beach. You can see video of Sandyport on Bahamas Realty’s YouTube channel and on our award winning website, www.bahamasrealty.bs.
Please contact me to help your dream cottage become a waking vision of delight. Be here, when the Junkanoo Festival drums start throbbing on Boxing Day, Dec. 26 and New Years Day, Jan 1.
