Cute 'In Town' Antique Home
Pa Willie's is an adorable cottage just across the street from Post Office Dock. Very easy to get to/from Marsh Harbour Ferry to the house. A surprise to us was a second upstairs bedroom. Tall people beware, the upstairs is not for you. The downstairs main bedroom/bath are fine for everybody. We had a few technical issues with the gas grill and oven, but the owners were very quick to come over and fix them. Super-good air conditioning! Everything was great. I would recommend that the owners provide a few folding beach chairs, otherwise, we loved our stay. Thank you!

Great stay!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We’re a family that keeps coming back to Hopetown and this was the best place to stayed based on our family needs. The beach was a quick walk away for the kids and so was the playground. The kitchen was well stocked with what was needed to cook. Great place overall.

Hope Town Thanksgiving
We loved our stay at pa Willie’s. The house was perfect for our family of five. We enjoyed our coffee on the front porch and grilling in the back yard for supper. We loved the boat slip and being so close to the playground. Lory was very helpful welcoming us and answering any questions we had. We will be back!! Best vacation ever.

Sweet, Comfortable, Convenient and Easy
Following great communications with Lory - Pa Willies does not disappoint. After 25 years of holidays in the area this was our first time staying in Hope Town itself and Pa Willies made it perfect! The property is fully outfitted and a only short walk away from beaches, its included dock, Vernon’s and a just short drive to other old and new favorites. We will book again
