Blue Ocean Village

The beach was a very short walk from villa. The villa was clean with everything that was needed and a very friendly staff. Most places was a short walk with easy access to public transportation. The beach deck was equipped with everything you needed and views are amazing.

Friendly owners, easy beach access

Great beach with top notch view. Will return.

Very clean property, friendly and responsive staff, access to the beach.

Stay there was surprisingly good. Good location and great beach just short walk from room

At the beach! Perfect little private deck just a thirty second walk away. Beautiful suite too. Lots of helpful advice and check ins from the hosts. Easy to take the bus and walk places. Highly recommend!

You had to walk between two private homes to get to the ocean. It was a pretty view when you got to the beach area, but the steps down to the beach & water were very unsafe so we were not able to get in the water ore even walk on the beach. There is no swimming pool either. 2nd) the frogs screeched all night long our first two nights so we left and relocated to a hotel.

This beautiful property offers outstanding service and accommodations.Though not a five-star resort,it feels private and offers waterfront access.The attentive staff provided everything we needed.The Abaco’s comfortable bed and amazing shower, though slow to heat, had enough water.The spacious bathroom with two separate bedroom/living room-kitchen areas is spacious enough for two and we were able to shop and cook our own meals.Ample parking was available, except in front of the cottage, where we were politely informed to move.We did have a parking space about 100 yards away, but people kept parking in it.Property is on Cable Beach, middle island’s north side.A kayak is available, but the waters in February were rough.The water was clear and warm, though there are no nearby reefs.The air conditioning vents blow strongly and loudly, right on the bed and into the shower, making it uncomfortable.The bathroom light motion sensor is annoying.Any movement near the door turns on the brightest lights, startling visitors at night.There’s no way to disable.The Wemo switch for the mirror lights also didn’t work.There’s no dresser, but there’s a small closet for two people. w/full mirror.Coffee, tea, salt, pepper, sugar, and 1 water is available.Nespresso espresso, Mr. Coffee, and grinder are also available.Hot water teapot is included.Close to most everything we needed, including the big resorts.Jitney picks up in front.Definitely worth the money.Must have WhatsApp to comm with staff!!!!

The outside is nice and I felt safe in the area. The beach is absolutely stunning and it is private. My issue was you have to use concrete stairs and it’s unsafe as it’s a big steep jump. If you have mobility issues DO NOT STAY HERE. The kitchen had no stove only hot plate. The glass to drink is dingy even after I washed it. Limited pots and silverware. The kitchen had a long mat and underneath the floor is broken. Look at photos. We had to ask for bath towels replacements. We don’t use same towel for 2 days. The cabs in Bahamas are scams and expensive. I use to love the Bahamas but their prices are outrageous. They say they have beach chairs. One was broken and we didn’t get a new one till 4pm, the day before we left. The umbrella doesn’t cover well because it’s crooked. You can wait for the bus if it ever comes in the heat. You can walk to get frozen yogurt or pizza. At night there was a huge roach in bathroom. Internet kept going out. Lonah was kind and professional. She get 5 stars. She responded immediately. If you needed anything. Cabs should be regulated I don’t want to visit where they attempt to scam Americans.

The beach access was my favorite part of the property. Beautiful clean water on white sand, very private. The views & my photos were unreal. A nice break away from the business of the downtown area.

The room was comfortable and clean. Right near the beach. Our host was very helpful and kind. Thank you

Blue Ocean Village is the perfect place to unwind on the quiet beach or take the short trip to the Baha Mar or downtown for some exploring. There ia great restaurants within walking distance and grocery stores close by. Our unit was clean and comfortable and the staff was very attentive. Shout out to Lonah who is nothing short of amazing with her smiley personality and her availability to answer any questions. Our fav by far was the private beach. You just couldn't ask for anything more and we will definitely be back !!!

Clean and very nice overall

We had a great time! We were on a girls trip and stayed in the Flamingo Residence, it was modest but very clean and comfortable. Lornah is a great host and assisted us right away with everything we needed. We felt safe, walked over to Baha Mar resort (where you can use the pool and beach facilities), grocery stores and neighborhood restaurants, and used a taxi for transportation to other areas. I appreciate the beach towels and beach gear they provided. It was overall a great stay and I'd definitely return in the future!

If this review would only be about the hosts, we would give it 100/10 - they were great and extremely friendly and helpful! Pros: - close to the main road so you can take a bus to the center very easily - clean and soft sheets - access to the beach - big units so you’ll have a lot of space for yourself Cons: - couldn’t walk indoors without shoes because the floor was so dirty (I know, this is not a problem for most of the travelers from US 🙂) - overall the cleanliness level to us was the same as it is for hostels in Europe

Very nice place, beach is 2 mins walk. Clean and updated. Highly recommended!

It was a spacious and clean two room walk up a 2 minute walk from the beach. The staff was friendly and helpful.

Valutazione complessiva buona, con premessa di piena soddisfazione. Analizziamo i punti di forza e di debolezza: - comunicazione con la struttura: 10. Lonah fantastica e sempre attenta a comunicare; - posizione: 9. A dispozione praticamente una spiaggia privata bellissima, a poche decine di metri market e starbucks e diversi ristoranti (inclusi quelli del complesso BahMar a 10 minuti a piedi). - stato del cottage: 4. Il Royal dove abbiamo alloggiato molto grande (3 stanze due bagni) ma molto obsoleto (necessità di una ristrutturazione). Ha tutto ma non tutto in buone condizioni (materassi dei letti). - pulizia: 6. Complessivamente accettabile ma migliorabile. Nel complesso quindi una valutazione positiva alla luce del rapporto qualità prezzo. Ma il posto ha grandi potenzialità e spero di tornarci e trovare i miglioramenti.

This was the perfect place to stay while in the Bahamas. Room was very clean and comfortable. The private beach which was only a minute walk even made it much better, you barely saw anyone. A lot of things I needed were walking distance away and the host Lonah was amazing. Will definitely be visiting again.

Lovely Island break though our 2 bed 2 bath unit was very dark Just a few steps to the sea Kayak and BBQ also walking distance to Bahar Mar Casino though restaurants were expensive

The room was comfortable and clean. Right near the beach. Our host was very helpful and kind. Thank you

This older property is set up like small apartments with ground floor units and up a staircase to the second floor units. Each unit has its own entry. Lonah was very helpful and responsive. The amenities were basic and the room was clean. WiFi was a daily connection struggle to test which network was available and sometimes none. The beach was really nice in that it was easy to access and in February it was rare to see others on the beach as it is cut off at each end by sea walls. There is enough beach for a nice walk. It is possible to go beyond the beach limits to walk along sandals resort beach however beware of submerged rusted rebar and one razor sharp stainless steel when passing an old sea wall at the far end of the beach. It’s about a half mile to Baha Mar and it’s walkable. Also a basic food market is within walking distance.

Overall it was a great experience, beautiful view right on the ocean. The only thing was that the property was very hot and humid AC didn’t work too well. But overall it was a good experience.

Stunning property on a fabulous beach. Would definitely return. We had the Abaco cottage which is actually a very newly built/converted detached bungalow. See pic. Little kitchen with everything you need. Even teabags, salt and pepper. Great hot shower, comfy bed. 2 min walk to a little shop for essentials and also a lovely frozen yogurt shop. 10 mins walk the other way is a big supermarket with a couple of restaurants, takeaways etc. Just be aware you can only contact the owners by WhatsApp. We didn’t realise this and called the number on arrival to discover it didn’t work. A little concerning but we found the owner in the end.

This property was through a cozy corner with immaculate beach access and ocean views! Modern cottage aesthetics and very clean with an exception of a few dishes. We felt safe and surrounding area was convenient due to grocery and affordable dining options. We were uncertain upon arrival which building it was as there are many through this cozy corner but we remembered reviews showed it was a blue building. Lonah, who is very hospitable, checked us in early at our request and we appreciated that! Both main and back-up Wi-Fi’s were inconsistent from day 1 and local work being done on day 3 leading straight into our check out day, by the local phone network, further disrupted internet access our entire stay! I recommend the family apartment, due to the access to the beach and the area at the front of the apartment where kids can play whether at the table or in the front yard space. It’s super quiet with the exception of the contractors working at this time, which was NOT much noise. There was also parking for our small SUV.

Lonah the property caretaker is super attentive and responsive.

It was my birthday trip. Blue Ocean Village made it incredible and unforgivable. Lonah is a very friendly and helpful host. We got everything that we need for one week stay. Clean all around the cottage (we stayed at Bimini),fresh bath and beach towels. Private beach was unexpected too "private." We were almost always by ourselves. I'm definitely recommending this place.

Hostess was prompt and courteous! Would stay again!

Lohan was super helpful and nice. Property has a nice access to private beach.

Cocoa Cay in Blue Ocean Village was lovely! We had everything we needed. The location is stunning with a quiet, pristine sandy beach. Lonah was the best! Super helpful and kind. Thank you!

We loved our stay at Blue Ocean Village. The location was great. There were plenty of places to eat and shop within walking distance. The beach area is amazing and the apartment itself was really great. The staff are amazing at communicating and went above and beyond with their customer care. We would highly recommend.

Great place to stay with easy access to a beautiful beach with clear water. The host (Lonah) was always available with help if needed and also gave great recommendations for around the area. Many dining options nearby as well as Supermarkets, Liquor Stores and a Starbucks, all at walking distance. Close to the Grand Hyatt Bahar Mar with lots of things to do there as well.

This property is quaint and perfect for its safety, security, quietness, close to a major grocery that you can walk to, excellent restaurants that you can walk to and a private beach. The best part is the host (Lonah) is incredibly responsive and frequently does anything she can to make your stay incredible. I simply can’t say enough nice things about Lonah and would stay at Blue Ocean village just because of her.

Our stay was terrific.. staff very helpful.. highest rating

My stay at Blue Ocean Village was exceptional! Lonah was very communicative and made the stay so easy. The location could not be beat--the quiet, private beach a 20 second walk away meant that I did not have to worry about taking the bus to any public beaches. There were a decent number of places to eat within walking distance, too. Lonah also helped arrange my taxi to the airport at the end of my stay.

Beach access was phenomenal, very central to many local restaurants and to Baha Mar. Everyone was very nice!

This was a gem of a property to find right on Cable Beach, within easy walking distance to Baha Mar: very comfortable and economically priced for the area. Really enjoyed my weekend here!

An Oasis! Steps away from the beach and restaurants. The area is a quaint, quiet, and secure not far from the bars and spots downtown. The studio was clean and exceeded my expectations! Lonah was very kind and provided me with good information to help me get around. The beach was an added bonus and literally perfect. I prefer to watch the sunset by the beach and basically had the entire beach to myself. Perfect for solo travelers.

Property clean, very nice, safe with little private beach. You can walk to Baha Mar, enjoy water park, casino .. Baha Mar is near Goodman public beach or cath $1.50 local bus from front of the property to Fish Fry to dine or to downtown for shopping and see other attractions. Just be aware of downtown sidewalk trips scammer.

This is a great spot with a beautiful beach. Easy access to the city and also quieter. Excellent running paths and walkable restaurants and bars. The hosts will take good care of you.

Perfect location to groceries, liquor, restaurants, entertainment, shopping. All within a 15 minute walk.
