Amazing property
Posted Mar. 1, 2024 on HomeAwayThe property is amazing and the pictures don’t do it justice! Great communication with the owner and the care taker. Make sure to have Mr. King prepare a dinner one night, it’s delicious! We all loved the property and will absolutely be back!

Paradise Awaits!
Posted Nov. 15, 2023 on HomeAwayIf you are on the fence about the place, don’t be. The location sets on the most beautiful serene piece of land. If you want the beauty of the ocean and secluded feel of having your own quiet and relaxing, peaceful place than this is it. Yet, it’s within 15-25 minutes of places to eat. Everyone was very welcoming and it was very easy to get around. Dinner with Chef at Hidden Treasures is a must (order the mango daiquiri) and Fernandez Bay resort as well. The owner of the house was amazing! She responds very quickly and is very accommodating. Harrison is the caretaker and was so very nice and helpful as well. Things to know, be prepared for potholes when driving into town. We ended up making a game out of it. Also, be sure to stock up on groceries so you aren’t having to drive back and forth. The grocery is on the way to the house from the airport.

Incredible
Posted Nov. 6, 2023 on HomeAwayThe house was even better than we expected! Mr king brought us homemade dinner on the 1st night after a long day of traveling, highly recommended. The island secluded but still with all the amenities. The locals are very night. Highly recommend getting dinner at hidden treasures from chef trevor. The Beaches were amazing! Cant wait to go back!!

Great house incredible island
Posted Jul. 17, 2023 on HomeAwayThe Point House is exactly as presented, incredible views and the cleanest pool we have ever seen. Inside was clean and was well equipped including a drinking water dispenser with 5 gal bottles which was very helpful. The care taker Harrison King was an excellent host. He brought us his fresh grown pineapples and watermelon and on our first night we arranged dinner that he prepared and delivered and was really tasty after a long day of travel. He also invited us to a "Farm to Table Experience" that he was putting on for some media people and the Ministry of Tourism at his farm that was really nice and we were very lucky to be included! He is also a great source of info about the island, culture and things to do. The Greenwood Resort had no guests but Pauline + Antwon still arranged for us to have 8 for dinner and music on my birthday with tuna steaks, was excellent! Beaches are crazy beautiful and all the people we met there were friendly and happy. AJ's store near the house is in the process of getting a gas pump installed and that will save a long drive. Olives Bakery is exceptional for bread! We made the trek out to Shannas for a Pizza which was super, but its a very long ride ($8/gal gas) Gilberts rent car great! We will be back and would rent from the Bannisters again for sure. Excellent communications, info packet and the best care taker ambassador on the island. Thank you Stephanie and Curt for sharing your beautiful place!!

Thank you for your wonderful review! We agree, our caretaker, Harrison, is the best in the Bahamas! We also love the fruits and vegetables he gives to us from his gardens, especially the mangoes and papayas!
We are so happy to hear that you will be returning to our oceanfront vacation rental home with it's breathtaking views of the ocean!

Incredible Views
Posted Jun. 21, 2023 on HomeAwayOur stay was amazing. Harrison was very helpful any time we had a question he was quick to answer and help out.
The view from the back porch is absolutely stunning. Every morning we would step out back and be able to see an abundance of life. We even saw a free jumping blue marlin from the house. The reef system outside the house is completely alive with all sorts of growing corals. Rarely do you find something like this in the Bahamas.
The pool was extremely refreshing after a long day of fishing or exploring the island.
We went down to the beach a few times and used the kayaks to paddle around the coral heads that were near the beach.
If you’re looking for a top notch secluded house with stunning views, this is the perfect house for you! 5/5 would definitely go back.

Amazing
Posted Mar. 20, 2023 on HomeAwayWhat a beautiful property!. Location was superb!. House is perfect!. Island and people are amazing!. Mr. King, was helpful, communicative, and extremely nice!. Pool was warm enough for us to use everyday!. Views are unmatched!. Food on the Island is great!. I wouldn't change a thing. Thank you to the Bannister's for allowing us to stay at their place!. - Renting a car was not a problem. Gilberts communicated well, and was very accommodating. His Grocery is great, had everything we needed. Went fishing and had a great time. Snorkeling right in back of the Point House was great. We had a good breeze most the time and no-see-um's were not a problem. WiFi worked GREAT. No problems. Power went out a couple of times, but for a short period!. Roll with the flow, it's Paradise!. Restaurants and Mr. King's food was excellent. Greenwood Beach Resort was really nice. Whole trip was unforgettable!. Thank you.

Beautiful house and location
Posted Feb. 10, 2023 on HomeAwayWe have stayed at many places in the Bahamas but Point House was the best. Beautiful location perched on a hill overlooking the best reefs on the island. The house was huge and had everything we needed including a beautiful pool. Snorkeling there was great at the reefs which were healthy with a lot of fish. Harrison, the caretaker, was awesome- cooking a few dinners for us and helping out with anything we needed. The owners were also great; promptly responding to questions and providing a ton of info about the island. Cat Island is very laid back but there are many places to explore including many beautiful beaches, several caves, the hike to the hermitage, blue holes, and ruins. Would highly recommend Greenwood Resort snorkel trip and restaurant which is not too far away. If the water is rough from east winds, check out Fernandez resort which has good food, beautiful beach and some snorkel spots at south of beach. Fell in love with Cat Island and this house in particular. Would love to return.
