Hope Town's Top Rental: Beachfront sunsets, AC, free boat dock, & close to town!

This renovated home sits on possibly the most ideal homesite on the island: An actual beach-front house, level lot, sunset view, on the calm side, perfect soft sand, crystal clear swimming waters, good privacy, and right at the top end of Hope Town. Brand new air conditioner, new chef's kitchen, open-concept, and new back-up generator, all newly renovated bedrooms, new flooring throughout (not in the pictures yet!), new stainless steel appliances including a second mini fridge (comes in quite handy for bigger groups!), and new clothes washer and dryer. Master bedroom with a king bed, guest bedroom with a queen bed, and a 3rd bedroom which has two full-size beds in a bunk (adult size), and a twin bed (thus sleeps 4 in that room), and a pull out queen size bed in the main room. 2-minute walk from the North-End Public dock ferry drop-off, free boat docking 80 meters from the house at a newly built dock, and a short bike, boat, or rental golf cart to Hope Town and the restaurants, and yes you can cart through town now and south to the rest of the island's attractions as well. It's only a 15 minute ferry or boat ride over to the dock from the mainland, which is only a 5 minute cab from MHH international airport! Great snorkeling right off the beach, especially around the reefs at the north tip. Some renters have even caught bonefish right in front of the house after seeing them swimming by from the deck! We usually have at least 1 or 2 kayaks, some floaties, a paddleboard, etc., although sometimes they are broken or go missing and it takes a bit to order new ones in from the US. We have a great relationship with the cart rental company, so they will drop off carts right at the ferry or boat dock for you, or at the house if you prefer. We also give you a full info guide, custom-curated by us, for most of the great things around the island, best practices at the house, and lots of other good info, and we email this to you well in advance of your trip so you can plan out all the best things! For restaurants, there are many amazing spots just a short cart or boat ride away including Captain Jack's, Firefly, Abaco Inn, Hope Town Inn & Marina, On Da Beach, Mackey's, Golden Kitchen, and more coming soon! However, keep in mind that one of the nicest meals you will have is BBQing looking over the beach and sea, and for that, there's a huge grocery store in Marsh Harbour near where you land (usually a great spot for a first big shop before you come across), and a small grocery store right in Hope Town. For high season (May to August) please try and book at least 6 consecutive nights; however, if you want to stay less, just inquire here and let me know what you're looking for and I will do my best to make it work! There is a reason this is not only the most rated, but also the highest rated rental house in all of Hope Town and Elbow Cay!

Having a swimmable beach right at the house was a great blessing and kept the family close and connected. We would definitely stay here again.

Setting is just as described in the listing. Scene off the back deck is fabulous. Sunsets were truly special. House was fully stocked with pretty much every thing one could need. Golf carts back and forth to town, and restaurants were fun and an adventure. Boat rental and dockage was exactly as described. All in all a wonderful place to relax, boat, kayak, fish, swim, etc! Loved it!

We had such a wonderful stay. Kevin was extremely responsive and informative with things to do on the island and how to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Elbow and Hopetown are just amazing and we couldn't have asked for a better stay.

This was our 5th trip to Elbow and this house was perfect ! North end of Island is private so very quiet, with very little traffic . The North dock is also very nice with stern pilings so you don’t have to worry about your personal boat getting beat up by rental boats ! This property has a generator which is very important in the Bahamas.

The beach at this house was beautiful! Perfect house for a family with kids. Rent a boat and explore the rest of the island, take a golf cart into town, or just enjoy the beach right outside your back door!

Family of 5 had a wonderful time. The house was cozy and nice, and the beach was perfect. Kids played on kayaks and snorkeled to find sand dollars and starfish all day, everyday. The sunsets were gorgeous, Definitely our favorite time to be out on the beach and walking to the North. We would love to go back again and again.

Property was fantastic! One of the nicest beaches we found on the west side with easy access to the Atlantic. Fantastic sunsets! Quiet, more secluded part of the island. Host was incredibly helpful. Would definitely return.

The house is located in a perfect spot! Staying on the North End is great, as no one South of hopetown has access to this area (need gate key to get thru town & this rental comes with 1) the gate key allowed us to travel anywhere on the island via golf cart (renting one is a must).The house is modernized, clean, comfortable great kitchen & many appliances. The covered porch is perfect to get out of the sun, but still feel like you were at the beach. The big yard has plenty of room for kids to play and a virtually private beach that stretches all the way to the point. The beach access next-door to the house is just for the people staying in the area and there were never many people on the beach. The bedrooms are comfortable and well appointed. the master bedroom& bathroom is spacious with a great shower & king bed. There were six of us with four teenage children, and we had plenty of room. Getting to our rental boat kept at the North Dock was quick walking distance or golf cart (plenty of parking).**RECOMMENDATION - when arriving on elbow, you should have your golf carts left at the LOWER DOCK instead of North dock. It’s just at the end of town, short drive away & is a mandatory stop for every ferry to/from Marsh Harbour. Reason If tide is low, the ferry cannot get to the north dock and you’ll get dropped at the lower dock-it always goes to the lower dock though.

Great property with spacious living area. Amazing beach, perfect for swimming, sandy bottom and shallow. House is in North End which we love. A little further from the settlement but less busy and more private. We've stayed here 2 years in a row and plan on returning.

Was absolutely incredible! The house was clean and spacious for a family of 6. Also, if you walk out the back door you are on the beach in less than 30 steps. My family and I had a great time and would highly recommend staying here to other travelers. We will probably be back again next summer!

My family had a wonderful time at The Beach House on our vacation at Elbow Cay. The house was right on the beach and we enjoyed daily walks especially at low tide. We saw stingrays and dolphins and met great neighbors at the close by houses. We enjoyed our coffee every morning on the wonderful covered porch. It was our favorite thing about the house. We can’t wait to visit again soon !
