Charming and private house

Sylvy Paris / France
Review Submitted: September 10, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
I had a wonderful stay at Ocean Sound and I really appreciated the high quality of the house, its contents, and location. What a charming and romantic house, it is very impressive. It is clean, comfortable, cosy, quiet, and very well equipped. The grounds and garden are beautiful, while the proximity to the water is really agreable. In one word It’s paradise!

The best advantage of this house is that it is completely private... with easy access to private and deserted beaches and one of the most amazing views of the ocean! Imagine having your breakfeast on the quiet patio, listening to the ocean and birds chirping in the charming garden with a perfect view of turquoise waters! The outdoor shower is nice after coming back from the beach…..

I also enjoyed the nice breez during the warmer days, the sound of the surf at night with the millions of stars in the dark sky... What a relaxing and perfect time! On Long Island and close to the house, there are lots of amazing sandy beaches, great for snorkelling, strolling and shelling… and there’s hardly anyone else around! People on the island are very friendly and accomodating. Simply, the Long Island experience is the real island living!

Take a walk on the empty beach, swim in the baby blue ocean, discovery the magnificient Deep Blue Hole, have a conch salad in a local restaurant, take a drink with the local people or just relax with a good book on a long chair.

By the way, for more practical questions, I really appreciated the availability, helpfulness and advices of the care-taker. I also appreciated having the internet, quite a luxury for the out island experience. I will note : renting a car during my trip was good, as it was essential for discovery of more of the island and grocery shopping.

I hope your stay is as enjoyable as mine was…..!

Amazing location, perfect Vacation!

Elaine Santa Fe, NM
Review Submitted: June 26, 2008 Date of Stay: June 2008
I recently returned from my trip in Long Island, Bahamas. I stayed at this property and it was perfect. The beach is amazing and one of the best I have ever seen. It was secluded and I did not see another person on the beach the entire week that I was there. The breeze from the ocean is wonderful, keeping it cool all day and night long. The house was great. It has 2 nice bedrooms and is fully-furnished. The house has modern couches (2 inside and one outside on the porch), dining table for 4, full kitchen and amenities, W/D, a hammock and much more. I could even use my laptop as there is WI-FI as well as satellite radio and a flat screen TV.
This is definitely the place to go to get away from it all and enjoy the beach, but there is also a lot to do if you are interested. Dean's blue hole is only miles away, one of the deepest blue holes in the world. You can go snorkeling, diving, boating, fishing, swimming or just hang out on the beach.
This place would be perfect for honeymooners or families at is romantic, beautiful, secluded and modern.
The property was clean and well-maintained. The owner was friendly and provided great service. It was easy to go online and reserve the vacation. Everything was taken care of easily and efficiently.
I would recommend this to anyone who is looking for a get away vacation who loves the beach!
