Vacation rentals with a washer and dryer in Cat Island

Awesome place!! Grat service! Will stay again definitely

We came to check out property nearby, and this place was the perfect location and very reasonably priced. What we didn't expect was how warm and friendly Margaret was and her helpful son Adam. We came for a room but left with a friendship. As for the room, food is very expensive in the Bahamas, so having a kitchenette with everything we needed was great. We are frequent Bahamas visitors, so we know bringing in food works well. Margaret has a good sized store on the first floor, so if anything is needed, it's probably there. Her daughter set us up with a rental car also, and that was perfect too. We'll be back for sure.

Great stay at arthurstown

Nice, helpful people. Clean accomidations in a great location.

Harold's Cottage is truly secluded with easy access to much of Cat Island's magic. This was our second trip to the Bahama's, our first to Cat Island. Everything they say about Cat Island is true: if you want to get away from it all, this is the place. The cottage sits at the very end of Old Bight which is like a spit off the West side of the island. It is about 15 minutes from the New Bight airport and easy to access by any car. Mind you, the road to Old Bight and the one to Harold's Cottage are single-land and not paved. To get to Old Bight you drive a causeway that cross over a marsh which is created by creeks on the North and South. There miles of mangrove growing on either side. Our host arranged for us to have a car. We were given a sedan which limited our ability to explore. We will be sure to request something more capable next time. The house itself is about 1 mile from Rollezz (roll-eez) Resort which is made up of about 5 bungalows located on the marsh side of the road and cabanas on the seaside. Also located along the road are an abandoned home as well as two defunct hotel buildings and a wrecked crane which add to the ambiance of the area. It sits on an open lot with some new plantings. Wear your shoes when walking around the driveway and sides of the house as there is a lot of construction material still on the ground as well as sand burs which painfully stick into your feet. The only shade available is on the front or back decks. Be sure to ask for deck chairs. We did, and there were two folding reclining chairs that were left by the back door. There were also four plastic chairs in the laundry room that we used to sit upon in the water, but that's it for outdoor seating. We were hoping to spend more time sitting outside on the sand and in the water, but the lack of seating, and no outdoor tables or umbrella made this uncomfortable. There is an outdoor shower which we used daily after swims. However, the platform beneath and the walkway to and from it is a piece of plywood. Wear your flip flops to avoid splinters. We had to hang our towels on the railing because there is not clothesline nor hooks for doing so. We were often hanging towels over doors to allow them to dry and avoid having them blown away during windy days. Cruisers (sail and motor yacht owners) anchor in the area due to the calm conditions. There were about three in front of us and around 7 in front of Rollezz. We saw them twice a day when they would take their dogs to the beach. Other than that, we saw no one. Often, our foot prints were the only ones on the beach. The cruisers would frequent the resort for meals. We were also able to enjoy meals with them. Our host also arranged for us to use kayaks from the resort which we didn't get to do due to windy conditions, but hope to next time. The inside of the house is quite spare. We have visited many Airbnb homes and this one left much to be desired. We choose to stay in a house so we can cook and enjoy being in one place. Unfortunately, the lack in this home meant we did a lot of eating out. Many of the kitchen tools were brand new, which we appreciated. There was cornmeal and sugar in the cabinet, but no salt or pepper. We ended up having to go to the food store to get spices and dry goods for cooking. The food store is well appointed and you can get most anything you need, for a price. The living room has two sofas, two end tables and a coffee table. Due to fact that it is at the back of the house (opposite the water) we did not spend much time there. It is an open-concept kitchen and living room. We would open the back door and windows, turn on the fan (the only light in this room) and allow the Eastern breeze to blow through the house to keep the biting flies from getting to us. There is no television, no books to read and just a couple of puzzles, some cards and a game or two. The bedrooms are situated on the seaside and have French doors that open onto the deck. We spent most of our time with these doors and the windows open, the breeze blowing through and a view of the water. We were careful, though, of the air conditioner units located just behind the doors. We were nervous the wind would blow the door into the unit arm and break the glass. The Bahaman breeze kept the biting flies away, for the most part, but they always get me. There are ceiling fans (the only light in the room) and AC units in each bedroom and living room. We don't use AC because we enjoy the fresh air, but we did use the fans. I was wishing for an oscillating floor fan or mosquito netting at dusk and dawn each day as the flies were worst at those times. We did not spend nearly as much time at the house as we would have liked, due to the lack of provisions. There was no information about the area provided in the home. We did our research before arriving so we had an idea of what we wanted to check out. Luckily, we had friends cruising in the area, and the internet, to provide some additional guidance. We were given a map by the nice people at Greenwood which we left at the house. I took some notes to share with anyone visiting so that they

Wow! What an amazing place to stay on Cat Island! My family and I had such a wonderful week at FB. Felicia went out of her way to make sure everything went smoothly. She made delicious food and was so helpful with lots of recommendations. The resort is beautiful, peaceful, and clean. Highly recommend this magical place.

We had a great stay here. Lana (the manager) was extremely helpful. She helped get any information we needed and helped us with any obstacles. We rented a car from her and it worked out great. We kiteboarded right out front of the house. We stayed in both units and liked the upper place much better. The view from lower unit blocked by vegetation. We were close to Greenwood beach resort. We took great diving and kiteboard lessons at resort. The managers their are super nice. The place was very peaceful and beach is amazing.

From start to finish, our experience at this beautiful home was exceptional. Communication with both the owner and property manager was outstanding—responsive, helpful, and beyond expectations. The house itself is a hidden gem, a bit off the beaten path, so I highly recommend renting a larger car or small SUV for easy access. I also highly recommend reviewing directions on how to arrive, which are provided ahead of time. But once we arrived, we were greeted by a spotless home that was even better than described. The beach was stunning, and more often than not, we had it entirely to ourselves—a rare and peaceful experience! If you're looking for a quiet, breathtaking retreat, this is the place. We can’t wait to return!

Absolutely gorgeous beach location! If you are a bone fisherman it’s beyond
