The Long Bay House PDF Print E-mail
A large oceanfront vacation home
on a white sandy beach, with a pool, boat and four bikes.

The Long Bay House is nestled on 5 acres on the Island of Green Turtle Cay, a barrier Island off the big Island of Abaco, the northern most Island in the Bahamas chain.

Located 180 miles due east of West Palm Beach, the Long Bay House sets on the highest point of Long Bay Beach and overlooks Black Sound our inland harbor.

"ABACO LIFE" has called Long Bay Beach one of the top ten most beautiful beaches in the Bahamas, we think you will agree. Pure white and sandy, great for swimming, snorkeling, sun bathing and relaxing. This beautiful beach lies just a few feet away from the front of the house.

The Atlantic Ocean is visible to the north and Black Sound is visible to the south.  Walk along the two miles of private white sand beach complete with two ocean-side decks or you can explore the Island with the bikes provided or rent a golf cart. There are many companies that provide services to fish, dive, or snorkel either in a group with a local dive master or fishing guide. You can rent larger boats or go on tours with Captains or guides to other Islands. Picnics, shopping and sightseeing can be yours to enjoy, you may also choose to explore the uninhabited Islands that surround our Green Turtle Cay, with there secluded beaches, ideal for shelling or a quiet picnic, the tables and grills that the locals have provided allow you to safely enjoy these Islands.

   Comfortable furnishings and amenities

On the other side of the house, off the living room, is the other large bedroom with a king-sized bed, traversing this room for access are the two smaller bedrooms with two single beds each, all three share a single bath. The smaller bedrooms are ideal for children or a single adult.
