“Peaceful, quiet vacation villa, with great access for snorkeling” When we first arrived at the villa, we were a little disappointed. There were issues with the plumbing, the clothes dryer didn't work, one AC unit squealed intermittently, and there were no paper towels as advertised. HOWEVER, after contacting Cathy, she did what she could to resolve most issues, sending out a plumber and a dryer repairman. She was extremely pleasant to work with, and made follow up calls to make sure everything was OK. The villa is nice, but could use some updating (i.e., some patio chairs were broken, bathrooms could be updated). Also, the housekeeper could be more attentive, especially outside where an ashtray was left overflowing and dirty plastic drink cups were left. The pool liner was dirty, and it was suggested to the owner that an automatic pool vac might help with this. If these issues were addressed, I would raise my rating to excellent. We thoroughly enjoyed the back terrace, in spite of the above issues. The kids enjoyed coming back at the end of the day and snorkeling out back more than anywhere else. They found queen conch, starfish, crabs, stingrays, and a variety of shells and fish. This became our favorite place to hang out in the evening. You will need to rent a car if you stay here. We rented a van through Avis, which worked out great. Driving here can be a little crazy, but you will quickly adjust unless you happen to be a nervous driver. There is a Super Value food store near the villa, but we found food to be so expensive there that we ate out most of the time (I researched inexpensive restaurants on Trip Advisor prior to our trip--very helpful!). We also ordered pizza from Marco's, delivered to the villa. It was very good and no more expensive than in the U.S. For excursions, I recommend Flying Cloud sail & snorkel to Rose Island, and a trip to Blue Lagoon to swim with the Dolphins (expensive, but worth it!). Paradise Ocean Sports has a good package deal, but ONLY if there aren't many passengers as they promise more than they can deliver in the time allotted. Check out all the beaches if you have time as each has something different to offer. I realize none of this is related to the villa, but hopefully the information will be helpful to some of you. We will likely never return to New Providence as we prefer to explore a variety of islands. However, if we should change our minds, we would stay at this villa again.

“great time!” The house is wonderful. The owners are awesome. If it wasn't for Sonal our trip would not have been the same. She was very helpful with activities, places to eat, places to shop ect. Couldn't have asked for a better trip.

“Absolutely perfect for a multi-generation family vacation!” We rented the villa for a family Christmas Vacation, in an effort to escape the city, the cold Canadian winter and reconnect as a family. We had 3 generations! A family of 4 (2 kids, ages 4 & 17), Aunt & Uncle & Grandparents too! The villa is casual and comfortable, perfectly located on the eastern tip of the island, oceanfront, in a quiet residential area. Close enough to the chaos of downtown Nassau & Paradise Island if you want to do that...or just relax and enjoy the company of your family and your own private beach. We did both...we did it all!! And it was absolutely perfect. Martina & Denise looked after our every need and inquiry, incuding meeting the food delivery service before we arrived (which is brilliant by the way). We will be returning to this incredible piece of heaven, but it won't be soon enough. Thank you, so very much, from all of us.

“Excellent Value - Great Owner” We stayed here from 19-24 February. Great house with tons of space. We traveled with 2 couples, one teenager and another adult. 2 Huge bedrooms upstairs, one large bedroom downstairs. walk in closets that had roll out bed option, Futon in living room. Great porch facing the ocean, which is about 300 meters from the porch. Swimming was easy. Reef at end of property for daily snorkeling. Saw sting ray, lion fish, drum fish, trumpets, etc. Beach is coral, minimal sand, but we enjoyed it very much. Martina was very easy to work with. No issues with payment or meeting us at the airport. Had power issue and she contacted us via email immediately to make sure we were ok and inform us of outage in the area due to construction. I would recommend this house to families or groups of friends that want to escape the hustle and bustle and just relax. The drive into Nassau was 15 minutes due to traffic but far enough away to not be bothered by the touristy spring break types. We loved it!

“Stay here! @ hibiscus” Here @ hibiscus we stayed 11 days straight. We where treated with kindness and respect. A wonderful couple! We received great hospitality and felt very welcome.! We had a great time by day and peaceful relaxing nights by the pool. Grocery stores just a drive down the street. Hibiscous is located south west side of the island with wonderful sunsets at the beach. Drive to up town bay street with many shops & restaurants and bars with open views of the wonderful blue oceans of Bahamas. Great night life. Scooter rentals is a must found right by the cruise ships. We were so happy to have stayed at Hibiscous! And you will too. Lovely time lovely people.! Thank you for having us Inea and Daron !!!

“A well thought out property with everything you need to enjoy a family trip” Fantastic hideout with something for everyone. Our 2 year old played in the rock pools, mother and father-in-law sent time listening to the ocean. We relaxed the evenings in the living area. A short (10min) drive from the hustle and bustle of Nassau and a not far from Clifton Heritage National Park (amazing snorkeling). Very clean and well presented with new furniture (not seen in pics). The house is on a side track away from the, not so busy, main road, and not far from eateries, supermarkets (quaint Italian bakery in Quality supermarket plaza down Prince Charles), and amenities, such as doctors offices, gyms. The house is well thought out allowing privacy and socializing. TV is available, although we didn't watch it. Just turn up with your basics and some food and everything is provided. You will thoroughly enjoy its charm and location. We shall return.

“Perfect villa for a large family” This was the perfect villa for my family (6 adults, 3 children). It had everything we needed for our weeklong stay, and we couldn't have asked for a better location. It was just far enough out of town for a quite, peaceful getaway, but close enough to drive in for everything we wanted to do. The owner was fantastic to deal with and provided us with various ideas of things to do.
