Atil is a kind a generous host. He goes out of his way to make you comfortable and to make your stay memorable. His place overlooks some truly amazing snorkeling. Dean's Blue hole is walking distance. I'd highly suggest visiting!

Atils place was absolutely perfect! Great location 2 mins walk from the world famous blue hole. Located right on a beach with great snorkeling within swimming distance from the shore. The house was clean and had everything you would need, including stand up paddle boards, snorkeling gear and kayaks. Atil was a great host, he took us to some local spots for food and we were even lucky enough to go spear fishing with him. I would highly recommend this house for anyone who is thinking of coming to the Bahamas.

House is in a fantastic location, close to Deans Blue Hole, fishing, groceries, Max's Conch Bar and Lloyds Sports Bar. Soft sandy beach is steps away and is beautiful, water is sparkling blue, good snorkeling a short swim from the beach - coral reef with colorful fish and sea turtles. We stayed in the main house, with a large ocean front porch, clean comfy bed with ensuite bath, a powder room in the hall, and outdoor shower. Had use of two paddleboards, one-person kayak. House has dsl wifi. Atil was excellent, he was very communicative and can give you good information about the island, and wants to be sure you enjoy your stay. Thank you!

Atil did a great job communicating prior to my arrival. Melvin was really helpful and took me to get groceries on our way from the airport, he also gave me a ride to the local sports bar Lloyd's. During my time there we didn't have any real problems and those we did have Atil addressed when he arrived a few days after us. He even gave us some fresh fish that he had caught and it was really delicious. The house is beautiful, I was so impressed by how clean it was given how easy it to track dirt in there. There was an outdoor shower and a hose for rinsing off sand. Turtle Cove is excellent. The car rental was a bit pricey at $50 a day but considering how expensive everything is there I think it was reasonable. And Dean's Blue Hole is a 5 min drive and I visited there about twice a day. The cove has a beautiful beach but it is a bit rocky and my mother didn't feel safe swimming past there, but the Hole has an amazing shallow sandbar that was perfect for her. Everything you could need is there as far as kitchen appliances, wifi, etc. and small touches like the kids' drawings on the wall really make the place feel like a home.

We went in Atil house with our two children (4 and 7 years old). We really had a great time there. We had a car so it was easy to visit the entire island and all beaches. Water was cristal clear and the Dean's blue hole is a must see. Even our child went to snorkeled there and we saw many fishes. We also really enjoy eating at the Max Grill to eat the legendary Conch salad. Atil friend's Melvin brought us lobster tail and conch so we had a great dinner that night. We have to be really carefull on the road but Atil prevent us before so we were ok. We saw stingray and sharks and if you go at Clarence town marina, you could feed them. We also went in Hamilton's caves and saw different types on bats. Child liked it!! Things we've noticed is that you have to be carefull because the sea brings lots of broken glass one the beaches and also there is some sand fly so bring your Off before you go at the beach. The lighthouse restaurant was also a place we enjoy for dinner in Clarence town. The groceries has almost everything you need but it is kind of expensive and most of them take credit cards. We went to cape santa maria where the beach is incredible and calm and we enjoy having a lunch and drinks at the hotel there. Hope it helps and I thank Atil for everything. He was there to answer all our questions before and during our trip. He was really nice to us and make our trip memorable. Anne-Marie :)

A wonderfull location ! private beach, paddle and kayak, everything you need, atil has it ! He is also very available, and cautious to be sure his guest has everything. The location Is 1km from dean's blue hole. That's great ! I really recomande that place

This place was amazing. Just the right amount space and cozy. all the simple things you need here. a beautiful beach a short walk away. The hosts fantastic. Flexible.Attentive. Really authentically wanting us to have a great time and helping how they could. The only real drawback is they dont include an addiction recovery program to wean you off the place when its time to go.

Accurate description. Ramona was there to greet us and show us everything before we arrived. Very lovely and helpful, and a great spot!

Great place. Not as photo and location not as indicated however and wifi didn't work.

Very nice villas, clean and modern. The staff is very considerate and helpful. So far a great experience!!

Perfetto!

I really enjoyed my stay here. The room and view was fabulous. Loved that I could see the Harbour and hear the sea from my bed. A gorgeous beach is in walking distance as well as a convenience store. I would recommend renting a car to explore the island. Unique car rental will sort you out. Ask for Tameka on property. She is a super help and will assist you. I would definitely stay here again and recommend to others without reservation.

Ellis is such a lovely host. The place is fantastic and location is superb, with a easy 2 minutes stroll to the closest beach. Other beaches on the south part (from Deadman's cay) of the island are also within a 10-20 minutes drive.

To say we were blown away would be an understatement. After taking trips out to a few of the "best" resorts on the island, I can honestly say Tiny's is leaps above anything available. While the other places feel dated and worn, Tiny's has a vibrant and modern feel to it. Starting from the parking area, you walk into an open beach with a small beach bar to your left, and the cottages on the right. In-between is a well stocked beach with a fire-pit, beach chairs, and a deck with two hammocks plus a table for seating. It has a very relaxed and perfected beach feel. Walking into the rooms you are greeted with a completely renovated and modern space. Everything feels very clean and welcoming. With the wind that rolls through the area you can leave the windows open and stay cool throughout the day. Michelle leaves the room fairly stocked with items you'll need from the day-to-day, to the beach items. By far though, the best part about staying at Tiny's is the hospitality you receive from Michelle and Jason. They are extremely accommodating and helpful. Michelle helped us secure a rental in advance and when we were delayed in arriving, she helped us with getting supplies to hold us over until the stores opened. Michelle and Jason are the perfect embodiment of the friendly island lifestyle and extend that feeling to you. We look forward to visiting them again and again.

Tiny's is truly a gem. The cottages are clean, comfortable, and with a modern yet laid-back vibe. Michelle and Jason are extremely knowledgeable and welcoming. They responded quickly to questions, provided great must-see recommendations and even helped arrange a car rental to ease my transportation around the island. Gorgeous views--the water's even more captivating in person. Loved taking the stand-up paddle board out on the still morning water to explore the surrounding reefs. Perfect getaway spot!

Tiny's is the perfect place to stay! The cottage is directly on the beach with a gorgeous view. They are beautifully decorated and have all of the required amenities. Michelle and Jason are super nice and gave us some great pointers on which beaches to go explore. Some were walking distance, but a rental car is a must if you want to explore the entire island. We spent most of our days driving around the island and exploring all of the different beaches (all were really beautiful) and Tiny's was the perfect place to come home to and unwind. The bar and grill right next door is open to the public Wednesday thru Sunday and serves the best food and drinks. A lot of the locals come here and everyone was really friendly. We are definitely coming back next year, and highly recommend Tiny's to anyone who is planning on visiting Long Island. Thanks again Michelle and Jason for sharing your place with us. Zelda and Brandon

I can't recommend Tiny's enough! It's a beautiful, peaceful place with a friendly atmosphere and lovely views of the sea literally on your doorstep! The huts are beautifully made and decorated so feel really luxurious and relaxing! Michelle and Jason are really helpful and welcoming hosts and will arrange everything they can to make your trip as smooth as possible (they even arranged our hire car for us from the airport!) We can't wait to go again!!!

Look no further, Michelle & Jason's beach club is perfect! "Tiny's" is a great place, the two guest houses are perfect size for a couple. It has everything you could need, full kitchen, large bathroom with shower and comfy bed. If you open all the windows, there's a great cross breeze, you don't need the air con (although its there if you want it). Their little bar/restaurant is so convenient, just next door, with great food and views (closed Mondays and Tuesdays). Other guests mentioned that there could be some noise coming from the restaurant, but we didn't experience that. Jason let us borrow his stand up paddle boards, they were great! We rented a car, really a must anywhere on the island as there is so much exploring to do. Michelle helped us sort the car, thank you! We highly recommend staying at Tiny's, it's a great place to call home for a week. You should also stop at the Midway Inn Restaurant for fresh fish and drinks. Marvin and Melissa are a wealth of information and really made our trip amazing. Long Island exceeded our expectations and we will be back!

I was on Long Island for a fly fishing adventure and Anthony's place was perfect for me! It is new, extremely clean, and very comfortable. It is also centrally located on the Island making day trips either North or South very easy. It is close to some good local eateries, groceries, & gas. Very convenient! Checking in & out was also very smooth.

My stay with Marsha was great. The lot was beautiful, quiet and centrally located. Marsha was a great host. However the room did not have any air conditioning.

It was a pleasure, to stay at Michaels Apartment in Long Island. Michael did everything that I and my friend had an awesome and chilled vacation. He worked out, that we will get a car over there, which was super nice - since we thought you can just rent it at the airport, but not in Long Island :D So do it beforeor ask Michael :) ! Unfortunately he couldn't be at the house during our stay, but he texted every eveningto make sure we had fun and everything is alright. Thank you so much for that! The accomodation is super nice. There is a ton of space, the kitchen is already equipped, so you don't need to bring anything. Also: His assistant is super nice and friendly, brought us fresh mangos EVERY day (!!!) and some coconuts :) it was great! There are living just around 3000 people on the island, so it is actually VERY unlikely to see a person while you're at the beach, which is actually quite amazing. Thank you so mich for taking care of us! It was an awesome vacation :)

The whole family was extremely welcoming and helpful during our stay. The apartment we stayed in was beautiful, extremely spacious, and on the most picturesque island in the Bahamas. The family helped arrange a car rental so that we were taken care of as soon as we stepped out of the airport. The family also offered us a free night's stay when it looked like our flight back might have been unexpectedly cancelled (though it wasn't). I have absolutely no complaints about the experience, and could not speak more highly for this listing.

Wonderful place! The cottage is lovely and clean.There was all we need in the kitchen.The beach is at 5 minutes on foot. Sara and Dan are adorable.When we arrived a cake and fruits was in the fridge for us. We felt like in our home.Great experience!

Sara is an incredibly conscientious and considerate host. She went out of her way to make us feel comfortable and welcome upon our arrival, and helped us coordinate various logistics of our stay. When I'd told her the kinds of activities we were looking for during this trip, she even put me in touch with friends of hers on the island who are into the same things. Sara's suggestions helped us thoroughly enjoy our short time on the island, and made for a very memorable trip! Sara is a great host, and her cottage is charming, clean and comfortable - I highly recommend it!

Everything was perfect, the cottage is spotless and like new, with everything that you need. Very short walk to the beach, quiet neighborhood, good location. Sara is very accommodating and can answer all your questions about the Island. This is probably the best value on the island.

We had a wonderful stay, out host was very helpful and provided plenty of information for my family to make this a special family vacation. We were looking for beautiful beaches and seclusion and we got more than we could have imagined. The house was beautifully constructed and you could tell there was an awful lot of attention paid to the details. I was a little worried about no air condition but that was not a problem as the breeze through the house with open windows was more than sufficient. an overall great experience and I will be bringing my family back again.

Mary was great, David took good care of us in as much as anything was needed, and the house - and Island - were close to perfect. The house is really secluded, about 13 miles from the airport, with the last 2 miles on a sand road through nature - and pretty much on a 'private' beach, the constant breeze was sufficient 'air conditioning', the decor really creative and for those like us seeking a week of total peace, the place could not be better. Long Island is friendly and as of yet pretty much undeveloped. The 'other' side of the island has some of the most breathtaking beaches ever seen and at night, when the stars come out... Could not get the internet to work, but did not really care. Highly recommended.

Amazing appartement, brandnew, beautiful spot, close to Max' Conch Bar & Grill ;-)

Great place, very neat, awesome view, super reliable and cool Jeep included in the rental. We loved it and definitely recommend Bahama Dreamin. Also loved Mike's restaurant recommendations, especially the conch salad of his friend Kenny!

Robin's property is located on the southern and Atlantic side of Long Island. It's secluded and quiet, but close to a number of restaurants and beaches. Having access to a car is really useful on Long Island as it makes seeing all of the beaches (which are quite spread out) easier. I'd recommend Robin's place as by far the best option on the island at this price point.

What an amazing spot with an awesome view of the Atlantic. We loved that there was a protected cove right off our back porch and took advantage to snorkel and see tons of fish in the shallow reefs. The villa was perfect and had everything we needed. Having a vehicle available was great since things are spread out on the island and you need something to get around. Buckley's Settlement is a central location on the island so you can drive north and south to see everything the island has to offer. Its is a great quiet island with extremely friendly people. We had a great time seeing the sights and fishing as much as possible. Great place to stay if you are not into the resorts and willing to go on adventures! Robin and Mike are great hosts that made sure everything was taken care of and that our trip went smooth.

Robin was a wonderful host for me and my family. She picked me up at the airport, made sure we had enough stuff for our child to have a great time and there were beers in the fridge to help settle in. Nice! The sound of the waves off the front were so relaxing and the views incredible. Great stars too.

Dear Robin, we had a very relaxed stay in your Ocean front villa! Thanks for all the tips & tricks on the Island and the boat trip you arranged for us, we loved it. Also the welcome beers were very much appreciated.

Robin und Mike sind super drauf und haben einen Traum am Meer verwirklicht. Die Apartments sind geräumig und mit allem nötigen Ausgestattet. Die Aussicht ist super und die Villas sind als Ausgangspunkt für Einkäufe, Ausflüge und Flughafen günstig gelegen. Robin und Mike sind sehr hilfsbereit und geben einem Tipps zu Ausflügen und allem sonstigen Wissenswerten über die Insel. Wir hatten eine super Zeit und würden sofort wieder gehen.

The house was very comfortable and clean! Robin fetch us from the airport which made the start much easier. The reef in front of the house was amazing and the water clear and warm. The car which was included was in very good condition. We really enjoyed our stay on Long Island, we were sad to leave after 4 days... A place to relax!

very simple, extremely clean, amazing location. both the host blandine and the caretaker Susie and her family were exceptionally gracious and helpful. the views of the ocean were unbeatable and the privacy superb.

We spent almost 2 weeks in Shukeena:Place of Peace & Happiness and it was all that we wanted it to be. The house is welcoming and clean with full kitchen, good bedding and great towels (both bath and beach). Patio wrapped around 2 sides of the house offers beautiful views of the ocean. There is a short pathway down the hill to a beautiful, secluded, private little beach with silky white sand with a sparse trees on one side that offered shade. The photos can't capture the actual beauty of the azure blue water. We were there around New Years and the weather was perfectly warm, both air and water. We spent every day on the beach. Blandine is a perfect host and made our arrival and stay smooth and comfortable. She answered all our questions very promptly and made great suggestions that made our travel easier.

Perfect spot for total relaxation, beautiful (uncrowded) beaches. Coffee on the porch in the morning with the sunrise is so nice. House is simple but has all you need, dining options are limited but you can find local fresh fish and Hillside grocery is generally well stocked. Locals are friendly and helpful. Would we come back? Absolutely!

I cannot speak highly enough of this place! Absolutely breathtaking. Our family of six stayed here for a week, but we never felt like the house was too small for us, and our amazement at the beauty of this place never went away. The pictures can't do justice to how lovely the private beach is-- we swam there every night, and the balcony in the back is a 5-star experience just in itself. The house was well-maintained and provided everything we needed to be self-sufficient and focus our time on exploring the island and water. We traveled the whole island looking for a house with a better location/beach/seclusion, and didn't find anything better than this. Long Island provided seclusion and beauty like I've never seen before, and this house is truly a "place of peace" like the name says. The island is obviously still recovering from Hurricane Joaquin, but the area just south of Clarence Town seems relatively untouched physically, and they're doing a great job of cleaning up the rest of the island. I would recommend talking to the locals as often as you can, and making the trip up north to Cape Santa Maria at least once. Get a tour of Hamilton's Cave with Leonard Cartwright and go out on a boat with Captain Delbert. Beyond that, just choose a road and head down it-- you'll end up at a picturesque Caribbean beach all to yourself. One of if not THE best vacation we've ever taken-- I wish I lived there!

Place of peace and happiness is an accurate description. I could have sat in the hammock swing on the porch all day watching the sea and listening to the waves. The house had everything we needed and more. The bedrooms were good size and comfortable. Being near the beach there was always a wonderful breeze. The house is close to Clarence Town and stores, but at the same time feels remote. A great place to escape. Host was wonderful and attentive. I look forward to staying there again.

Oui le paradis existe, c'est Shukeena ! Nous avons été très bien accueilli et conseillé (merci a Susie). Blandine est disponible elle a répondu très vite a nos mails. La maison est parfaitement conforme a l annonce. il y a même la climatisation. La brise rafraîchie de façon très agréable la maison. C'est un havre de paix, la plage privée est top, notre fils de 5 ans a adoré la plage, les animaux ( poissons, raies, tortue, oiseaux, crabes...) Pour une premiere fois avec AirBnb, nous avons passé des vacances extraordinaires, dans une ile calme et très nature.

Amazing trip! Incredible host and care taker. Can't wait to return!

Stayed at Shukeena from Feb 1st to Feb 9th. It was amazing. Absolutely amazing. Not my first time in Long Island but definitely the best stay Ive had. Great views, great exploring on the islands off of your private beach, great location (the trade winds offer plenty of breeze), great food very close and perfect privacy. Blandine and Suzi (caretaker) were incredibly helpful and did everything to make our stay perfect. Cant wait to come back next year! This is the only place I want to stay at for now on.

I can only imagine how Audra, Brian and Elijah felt as they waited for my wife and me to finish clambering up the hill of the driveway for the Caribbean Blue Beach Villa in our rental SUV in a pouring tropical rain, hours late due to a delayed flight. But my wife and I were heartened by their assurances and pleased that they had stayed around the Villa until we had arrived and shown around the house. We greatly appreciate our host’s efforts in making sure we were welcomed and comfortable throughout our stay on Long Island. We enjoyed our time ensconced at Caribbean Blue Beach Villa. The villa’s description was accurate; the villa was clean and met our wants and needs. And the immediate neighborhood presented itself with nature’s beauty and charm during our stay. The flora and fauna (particular the multiple brief encounters with scurrying small crabs), the appearance and sounds of the ocean, the refreshing breeze, and the consistently pleasant, sunny weather (notwithstanding the initial rainstorm upon arrival) led my wife and I to enjoy hours of contentment and relaxation during our stay at the villa. As it has met and exceeded our expectations we heartily recommend this villa to our friends, neighbors, and any traveler who needs a place to stay while at Long Island. The Caribbean Blue Beach Villa left nothing to be desired.

This is an amazing and very cozy but spacious villa only a few steps away from the ocean. The nice hosts, that also live on the island, were very engaged and helpful to make our stay the most comfortable. The put a lot of effort in hosting and give tons of great tips and ideas what to do and where to go. The beaches on the east side of the island, as the beach at this house, can get a bit rough and windy especially during hurricane season, but only a short car ride away in the other side you will find the most secluded and lovely beaches that are calm as a swimming pool. Great place, nice island, recommended.

Everything was as advertised. Local caretaker was very attentive and with the host made certain we had access to everything we needed. Fabulous location. Great beach. Only 10 minutes from Clarence Town. We were there for a research project and the house was the perfect place to relax after work. Look forward to staying there again!

The blue beach estate was the perfect getaway! The beach was amazing and in the ten days we were there, we were the only people on the beach. Perfect paradise! The cove was about ten minutes walk down the beach and quiet enough to snorkel in- my husband saw a barracuda! The house was great. Everything we needed was there, and the hosts were quick to answer when we needed anything (internet was down for a day and they got someone to fix it very quickly). As for the island, it was very remote- perfect for our honeymoon. But the grocery store in Salt Pond had gluten free things so it didn't feel too remote! The suggestions of other beaches to visit were all so cool! Again, we saw very few other people on the beaches, lots of awesome sunsets, awesome fish and wildlife! My husband and I highly recommend staying here.

We arrived to Caribbean Blue and were met by our host Brian and Audra. This is a wonderful family and they made us feel very welcome and at home. The property is better than advertised in my opinion, as words and pictures cannot do it justice! this is truly a remote paradise retreat. The beach has to be one of the best beaches we have found anywhere! Brian and Audra were perfect as we progressed through our week, they checked to make sure all was perfect, my son was a little warm on the first night so we asked where we could buy a fan. We found them to be a little pricey on the island so we passed, only to arrive back that evening to find a fan Brian and Audra left for us on the front porch. If you like remote and some of the most beautiful, untouched beaches in the world, you must visit Caribbean Blue! Thanks Audra and Brian, we look forward to seeing you again soon!

We had a wonderful time at Audra and Brian’s house on Long Island. Lots of space, a mile or two of de facto private beach (there was never anybody else around) facing the Atlantic ocean. Audra and Brian were very helpful; they arranged the rental car for us, Brian picked us up at the rental car offices and took us to the house, they both showed us around and explained the inner workings of the island to us and recommended places to go. Our favorite spots on the island were the gazebo on the beach and the hammock on the porch, anyway (but Dean’s Blue Hole and Galloway’s beach were cool as well). During the first few days the internet connection was a little shaky but did stabilize later on. Blame it on BTC – they were constantly working on the telephone and power lines along the road. In order to get fresh fruit, vegetables and fish, Seawinds supermarket is a 15-minute car ride away, so don’t even think about not renting a car. The best day to go shopping is Tuesday because this is when fresh produce arrives. Thanks to the breeze from the Atlantic ocean mosquitoes were no trouble at all, but the one thing you must not forget is baby or eucalyptus oil to fight off the sun flies. Those tiny buggers’ bites (or stings or whatever it is they do) will itch terribly. What else can I say? The kitchen is well-equipped, the washing machine does a swift job, the house itself has a really nice groove, and you fall asleep listening to waves crashing. I hated to leave.

My husband and I had a fantastic time at the Caribbean Blue Beach Villa. The villa itself is attractive, comfortable, and is a short walk away from an amazingly beautiful beach. During our 9-day stay, we saw only 3 other people ever on the beach, so we had it pretty much to ourselves. Our hosts were warm, friendly, and so helpful--they are lovely people. Long Island is a gem that is worth discovering.

Brian and Audra were absolutely amazing hosts during our stay in Long Island. The house and beach are exactly what we were looking for in a tropical retreat. The beaches were incredible and pictures simply do not do it justice. Brian and Audra were incredibly gracious hosts, taking their time and doing anything and everything for us to make sure we had a great and enjoyable stay. Despite some adversity and unpredictable travel, they accommodated us extra and did anything to make sure we were happy and had a great stay. I highly recommend the Caribbean blue for anyone looking to get away from the daily hustle and bustle and enjoy some beautiful beaches and a taste of pristine tropical paradise.

We had a wonderful stay in Long Island. The villa was stunning with a beautiful ocean view. The grounds were lovely. We would highly recommend.
