A little slice of heaven

Our week at Indigo was absolutely magical. The photographs on the website are impressive but they did not prepare us for how truly magical the place is. Walking through the gate it felt like we were walking onto a Conde Nast photoshoot. After only a couple of days our 6, 4 and 2 year old kids told us they did not want to go home and we could not have agreed more. The landscaping was first class. The gentlemen taking care of the grounds do an amazing job - beautiful flowers everywhere and not a weed in sight! The house was in wonderful shape (we saw lots of other houses still looking beaten up by the storms last fall) and the cleaner saw to it that, no matter how messy our kids made everything, the place looked immaculate. The owners were very helpful even going so far as to get a crib for our 2 year old and getting lots of pool and beach toys for the youngsters. They had recommended a cook and thank goodness we took their recommendation - she was wonderful! Great cook, great with our kids, and full of information about the island and Bahamas. She did most of the shopping but we still went into Rock Bay and Governors Harbour a couple of times to explore. Not terribly exciting places but then if you wanted excitement you would probably be at Atlantis. Only ate out once and that was at the Windemere Club, food was only ok but it is close by which is nice. Also played tennis at the club a couple of times (rackets and balls are at the house) just to break up the pool/beach routine. Speaking of the beach - beautiful and empty. Probably saw about 20 people the entire week and I was running and swimming just about every day. Kids loved to play in the waves on the kayaks when they weren't playing in the pool.
So, it was everything a holiday should be. Beautiful location, relaxing for the parents, fun for the kids, and definitely someplace we will be coming back to
