About Lesley/Alison

Hello, my wife and I have travelled with our children to various islands in the Caribbean, but we felt most at home on Grand Bahama Island. I have a contracting company in Ontario Canada and had been searching for the right property on which to build our vacation home.

Lesley/Alison purchased this house in 2003
Why Lesley/Alison chose Grand Bahama Island

The Goodfellow family has vacationed on Grand Bahama for more than 15 years and enjoyed the area and local people so much they built a home on Pelican Point in the late 1990's.

The demands of the construction industry in Canada kept the Goodfellow family in the North a great deal of time and they decided to try share their vacation home by renting it out when not in residence. This proved successful and when they decided to build a larger home, they looked for the best beach they could find on the island of Grand Bahama.

They located a large lot on Golden Beach and in 2003 completed work on this current home near Freetown.

1st Class Beach House Away from it all

  • Submitted: Dec 19, 2007

This house blow me and my friends away. It is first class all the way. And the ocean views from the rooms are amazing. The beach in your backyard felt like your own private beach because there is no one around. The only down side might be an upside, it is a 30 minute drive to the center of Freeport, to where all the action and people are. If you are looking to get away from the busy then this house will exceed all your expectations.

Paradise!!!

This home is absolutely gorgeous. The pictures on line do not do it justice. The lay out inside the home is fabulous. There is lots of space for everyone. We had 7 in our party and we were never running into one another. The beach area when we arrived was not as nice as we had hoped but after a day or two we realized every day the beach was different due to the tides. So, if it is rocky one day it may be clear and sandy the next. Just be patient and wait it out! We stayed there for 14 nights and we never tired of the view everyday. We went into town about every 2 -3 days. There is always lots to do and experience on this island. A few of our favorites were: Lucayan National Park and Gold Rock Beach- A few miles down the road, my kids favorite beach for swimming but quite a walk to get to (be prepared), loved Ben's Cave @ The Park (beautiful), Barbary Beach was deserted but absolutely gorgeous, you could drive and park right beside it (a great way to spend some time with a picnic lunch if you come prepared, Taino Beach was also great ;we went during the Conch Festival, so there was lots of fun activities going on. We especially loved the Junkanoo Parade as well as the Conch Salad. My son and husband went to Unexso to do the open ocean dolphin swim. It was expensive but their highlight of the trip so it was worth the money! We went to Paradise Cove (Deadman's Reef) for a day and it was definitely worth the drive! The snorkelling was great, lots to see. The restaurant served a good variety of food and drinks. The little gift shop had comparable items for sale to that of Port Lucaya. Speaking of Port Lucaya, we did go there a few times. We went to the beach (great), casino (husband won twice), looked through the shops (purchased a few items) and ate at Pizza Hut a few times (since the kids loved it). On our final day we went to Garden of the Groves. This was a great way to spend 2-3 hours. It was beautiful and it was a nice way to end our time in Bahamas!

wonderful relaxing vacation home

The house is exactly how it is described. Everything is well equipped. There was toilet paper, bug spray,etc. You get to the house, everything is clean and ready for your vacation.
They added a beautiful lanai right at the beach. It is perfect there. Just the trash from the wood wasn't picked up yet. But I'm sure that'll come.
The ocean is mostly calm, just sometimes some waves, when there is a storm. The beach is wonderful at low tide. High tide is a problem. There are so many washed up broken corals that you need surf socks to walk in.
The island is wonderful, if you are looking for a vacation away from everything. The house is located about 35 min from Freeport, but if you plan ahead, you only need to go shopping every third day. The Solomon's supermarket had everything! We didn't miss any food and the food was fresh. Next to Solomon's is a fish market. There you can buy Lobster and fish. Outstanding.
At Pelican's Point is Bahama John's Bar. A must!!! Food and drink are great, the beach very nice and you can play beach volleyball while you're waiting fpr your food.
At Lucaya aou should check out Unexso. Great place where you can swim with dolphins. The restaurant Argave is a great place to eat, too.

Summary:
A great vacation home with everything you need!!! Always again:)

Owner's Response: The covered lanai with a large table right on the beach is complete and tidied up. It is an excellent spot for lunch, relaxing in the shade, or watching kids play. Its also perfect for little ones to play in the sand but out of the sun.

We just returned from good fellows house this week. We were 2 couples with 4 children ages 7months-6yrs. The house was lovely and very spacious! The beach was at the back door:)
Downfalls: kitchen does not have a lot of basic things needed. I.e sugar , coffee filters. and the grocery is like 40 minutes away. When you get into Freeport be prepared to buy Everything you may need. Wine was very expensive but beer and liquor were priced reasonably. Beach defiantly requires beach shoes or some tough feet:) there was no beach umbrella (made it hard with a little one, but I guess we should of bought one in town. There are 2 little restaurants about 10 -15 minutes away that were very friendly and served yummy food. Dorris's and ? Right next to each other. Lucaya beach right down the road was beautiful and worth the trek. It's $5 a person. But fun to pack up lunch and go there.

We would go back again! Now more educated:)

Beach shoes may be necessary at high tide depending on the coral season, but at low tide, there is a long wide perfect silky sand beach.

A perfect getaway

My family had a wonderful time staying in this lovely home. The house is beautiful and very spacious. There are views of the ocean from almost every room, and once we figured out how to use the screen doors (very easy to use, but we did not notice them at first), we were able to hear the waves and the swaying of the palm trees during the whole stay. Our kids loved being able to run to the beach on their own, and we had seen only a few people on the beach during our stay. It felt like our own private beach.
The location was great: removed from the crowds, but near enough to be able to run into the nearest town, if needed.
We would highly recommend this house to anyone looking for a relaxed vacation on a beautiful beach, while enjoying all the luxurious amenities that this house offers.
