The home was absolutely beautiful and just as the photos indicated. The lawn, gardens, and pool were stunning and incredibly maintained, and the walk to the beach the length of the property was truly amazing. As we were at Punta Chame during the off/rainy season, the town was quiet. The home was well maintained, with its the rooms and views spacious. When we needed more towels and trash bags, Mr Aris, the caretaker, came without us asking. We typically purchased what we needed. We did ask about local meals, and Maria came to cook twice for us - a great additional feature of the home. All staff were polite, helpful, and a delight to talk to. Of course, we didn't want to leave and look forward to visiting Punta Chame again.

This home is AMAZING and the staff is GREAT. I truly appreciated the quick responsiveness of our host who sought to address any concern and meet any need in RECORD TIME. Being from a tourist destination myself The Bahamas, I truly appreciated the hospitality. This home comes highly recommended by me and I would definitely do it again. Definitely 5 stars.

Best Bits: The beautiful warm pool and spacious, very comfortable rooms were a huge plus. Our host was incredibly helpful and the villa was spotlessly clean. The garden was also beautiful and well-kept. The air conditioning was excellent and the area was safe, friendly and quiet. There were two small mini markets nearby and some lovely quiet beaches. There were also plenty of activities to keep us entertained. Food: Even in the low season, there were still two restaurants serving delicious local food. Problems: Two of the rooms didn’t have reliable hot showers. As advertised, the neighbours played very loud music on weekends. This started on a Friday afternoon and continued relentlessly until Sunday afternoon. It was never turned off or down. Despite this, we were always able to sleep inside the house but it was difficult to enjoy the pool during these days. One bedroom also lacked wardrobes and another bedroom was separate from the rest of the villa. Would stay here again.

The house is nice, very clean, spacious, with lots of places to enjoy the property. It has a super spacious rooftop with a delightful atmosphere in the evenings, and a large terrace where you can have a BBQ, breakfast, or lunch surrounded by the property's beautiful greenery. The large bougainvillea plant is wonderful; you don't want to leave. We enjoyed the pool every day, with a delightful temperature and a safe depth. We were able to play cricket on the property, do our egg hunt on Easter Day, and go for walks. It has a private beach access within walking distance. We really never needed to leave the property; I had a wonderful time. We were two families. There were 9 of us, and we never felt cramped with one another, as the property is spacious and comfortable, so you don't run into each other. It has kitchen utensils in good condition, an oven/air fryer, microwave, stove, coffee maker, and everything we needed for five spectacular days. We would go back without a second thought.

We had very few issues, hot water heater went out while we were there but they got it fixed. The stove and refrigerator were kinda on the fritz. Aris and his family do an amazing job keeping the yard immaculate and he even picked us some fresh limes. The property is gorgeous but the trade off is all those flowers leave a lot of mess in the pool. No big deal because Aris, the groundskeeper, takes care of the pool as well as the yard perfectly. The neighbors are loud when they were there but I slept through it with the AC on. There are plenty of pans, silverware and dishes. The roof space is great on calm nights or for watching the sun rise and set. Los Compiches just 100 meters down the driveway had amazing ambiance and even better food. every restaurant we tried on the isthmus was great. very good stay overall.

It is a special property to enjoy the climate and the mountainous surroundings of the place, isolated, quiet and peaceful but at the same time close enough to the places of interest in Cerro Punta. The cabin is beautiful, ideal to enjoy with friends, the girls in my group enjoyed room 6 with two pajama nights. The campfire light was very cool for adults with a little wine, good conversations and laughter. I recommend the cabin 100%

We loved the house. The whole family stayed and it was a wonderful experience. Everything was very clean and the house has enough space and beds for everyone to sleep comfortably. There were 23 of us and we all rested without any problems. We really enjoyed the beautiful cabin, with an elegant style and wooden details that make it very cozy. The cleanliness was impeccable and the fireplace is quite a spectacle, it gives a warm and special atmosphere to the house. Definitely an ideal place to enjoy as a family.

Our stay was exactly what we wanted, with 5-star service. We were a family group with 5 adults 4 children (youngest 8yr) and were looking for a place to be together, play on the beach and in the pool, share meals together and this property fit the bill. We had a car and used it once during the week to visit the supermarket (which was 50 minutes away) outside of getting to and from the airport. Property is incredible- walkway to beach is amazing! The beach turned out to be ALL ours. We hardly ever saw anyone else out and spent hours every day there. That being said- this was a vacation for us to be together and reconnect (where its warm- coming from CO and ID), not one with a packed itinerary. Had we come with ambitions of a lot of outings and exploration, the location would have made it difficult due to a long washed out/bumpy road off the peninsula. Aris was attentive and helpful, we used Maria the cook and her meals were delicious. The house is dated but well kept. Kath was GREAT

Excellent, 11 months ago
Everything was excellent! We went with our family, including two babies under 2 years old and an 85+ year-old adult, and everyone had a wonderful time. The house is beautiful, exactly as shown in the pictures. very clean, and the beach is just a few steps away. We truly had an amazing stay and left wanting more! We would definitely come back. Just keep in mind, as Kathryel mentioned, that at night there can be some loud music around the area. One night in particular there was a different kind of “party” with drums and chanting..it sounded like some kind of cultural event because of the songs and how people were singing and repentina but it only lasted about two, three hours until 2 am and didn’t happen again during our stay. Overall, we absolutely loved it and would 100% return! 🌺

The house was amazing. Kathryel was great for suggestions outside of Punta Chame for things to do and was very accommodating when we needed things. Highly recommend for anyone wanting to get away from the hustle of life. The ocean was full of jellyfish so never got the chance to enjoy but the pool was great.

We stayed at the house with 9 people 4 of those were children. The grounds were well maintained and beautiful. The bottom floor is a bedroom. The living space is on the second floor. The bunk bed in the pictures is in a separate building where the grounds keeper and his family live. They are nice and not bothersome. Some people will not be comfortable with their children staying away from their families in a separate building with other people living so close especially if they come from the US. The kitchen was stocked with only the basics. There is no dishwasher. The pool and outdoor areas were wonderful as well and the beach which was short walk through the gate in the back yard. The description did mention that the neighbors could be loud on the weekends. Unfortunately this is true. They were very loud from Thursday-Sunday with loud music and fireworks until 3am. To be fair, it was Carnival weekend. Also, there was the consistent smell of leaves burning despite the breeze.

Our stay at this home was absolutely magical. It is remote and it takes a bit to arrive in the town of Punta Chame, but it is worth it. The beach is endless, the view is gorgeous, and the wildlife is abundant. The town has two small grocery stores but larger markets are available about 30 minutes away in Coronado. There were two restaurants in town that were open- one around the corner that we ate at once (it was delicious!) and a Cevicheria next to one of the markets. We bought fish from the local fishermen on several occasions and largely did our own cooking. We explored the Valle Anton, Playa Caracol, and the Otoque Islands and took long beach walks, swam, surfed and played beach soccer. The house was really comfortable and large with good A/C and WiFi, nice pool, grounds that are super well maintained (you can tell they love plants), and a great rooftop deck. And Kathryel was an incredible host - she made sure that everything was good and helped us any time we had a question.

Kathryel was an excellent host. Very responsive and had plenty of suggestions and solutions. If you are traveling in during the rainy season BRING LOTS of insect repellent. There were power outages in the area as well but it didn't last very long and it wasn't for the entire duration of the trip. The house is a SOLID 29mins away from the main road so make sure you calculate that time for your trips. The area is secluded and the beach is right outside the back gate. It is beautiful but there is pollution and trash on the main beach area. However, the experience was still nice. The grounds keeper does NOT speak English but the translator app worked well for us and we didn't have many issues. He was also very responsive. It is a wonderful family getaway and definitely a beautiful property with mangos and star fruit galore. If you are Spanish speaking and have insect repellent you will be fine. Enjoy

What a wonderful place to stay for a quiet vacation! The place is charming and comfortable. There is plenty of space both in the house and casita and on the grounds. The first floor porch wraps around the entire house and the upstairs has a porch both of which are open to the wonderful breezes coming off the ocean. The location is amazing. Right on the ocean---just walk out the front gate and there is the beach and ocean. The gardens are charming with a huge Mango tree in the center and plenty of flowers to enjoy with the iguanas and the hummingbirds. Lukas is there if you have any problems or need anything. We loved dining out in Farallon---the food was amazing and very reasonable. As for the hosts: they went above and beyond the call of duty with assisting us in getting our lost luggage delivered! And: this was probably the best stocked home we have ever staying in---pots, pans, dishes, and the usual stuff. But also plenty of necessary items! It was amazing

The special details in looks that the house has makes you feel you are in a tropical paradise. The house is very clean and neat (just as the pictures). The host was very attentive, willing to help and made sure everything was all taken care off. If you need assistance with cleaning etc, there is the option of talking to Lucas (employee of the house) so he can help for an extra $. Definitely will recommend staying here.
