Beautiful location with easy access to all sites

The home was perfect for our family. Easy stroll to the ocean on both sides of the island. Rent a boat to visit all the sites nearby. We grilled the fish we caught for dinner one night.

Great Stay

The Property was clean, with basically everything we needed for our stay, the view was amazing from the back patio. Our host was very responsive and although he was not on the island at the time. He ensured that someone came by to check on us. Also if you need a golf cart for transportation, there is one available to rent that is also on property.

Beautiful property and great location with beautiful views of the bay😃

I would recommend this vacation home highly...relaxing secluded beach and huge deck overlooking the bay!!!! My only recommendation is to shop for food and liquor in staniel Cay before coming to Black point they did not get there delivery that week so things we’re hard to come by...a great time was had by all👍

Very Good 3 B/R property with magnificent views of the ocean and Bay . A good organization of the kitchen would help the guests who plan to cook and prepare most of the meals. Bringing fresh food into the Bahamas is limited as are the small stores in Blackpoint so a food order from Nassau in line with your arrival could help.

Beautiful views!

We really enjoyed our stay! The house was perfect for us and our family. Marco helped us with the boat and everything! The views from the front and back porches were priceless. Nice ocean breezes and water was drinkable. Island is so quiet and peaceful! Taking the boat to go snorkeling and to find private beaches to hang out on was our favorite part. We are already talking about when we can go back!

Family Holiday

This is the place to stay, breathtaking views of the ocean both in front of the home and on the back deck. The property was as advertised, very clean, quiet and supplied enough kitchen ware to make almost any meal. Do make sure to get groceries before coming for your stay on Black Point as you are very limited on food items from the local store. We traveled with our two boys, 3 and 7 and they had a blast on the beach, especially during low tide, they were able to walk several yards out to the sandbar. Overall we had a great time from beginning to end. I'd suggest a boat tour with a guide, dive tour, or just a day or 4 on the boat which can be arranged by Bread Boy and his crew. These guys were all solid and know thier way around the islands extremely well. My only con was that there is no access to cash so make sure to bring plenty. This was our 2nd time to the Exumas and we hope to enjoy many more Holidays to come.

Amazing Exuma Vacation!!

We traveled to this amazing vacation property for a week. We are a family of 5, two kids age 5 and 4 and it could not have better. The house was equipped with everything we needed. We also rented the boat and jet ski. Henry was more than helpful and made sure we had everything we needed. Santos, who works for hiim, made sure we knew how everything worked and made sure we had gas for the boat. The water was spectacular and very safe for small kids. We went fishing and caught many fish. The people in town were super friendly and Adderly's Friendly Store had what we needed. There are plenty of dining options in town, however, we were content cooking at the house. We travel often and this was the best trip we have ever taken. Thanks Henry!!! God bless. Check out our video on you tube entitled The EXUMAs Blackpoint 2013 to see just how beautiful it is.

Very Special Place

Black Point is a gem. The house is situated on a narrow strip between the Atlantic and the Black Point bay area. On one wrap around deck you can watch the crystal blue waters of the inlet go in and out with the tide exposing about 300 yards of white sand, or sip coffee and watch the sunrise over the crashing waves of the Atlantic. (pro tip - take the short hike up the hill to the right for sunrise). Black point is for the visitors that like a little more off the beaten path. If you want snobs and fancy boat traffic, stay at Staniel Cay. Just realize where you are - on a beautiful remote island where everything must be boated or flown in. There are no home depots around every corner, and the environment can be harsh (think salt spray and hurricanes). We did have a few small issues but they were fixed within a few hours by Henry and Santo who were great and very responsive to all questions. Bring your groceries and your desire to explore! Rent a golf cart to zip around and explore the island. Makes zipping into town easy. Rent a boat to explore the surrounding islands is a must.

Taking a break from the big city

This is the second time we have stayed in Black Point at Henry's and loved it!! We love his new house and the porch overlooking the Carribean is perfect. Aside from the standard amenities (i.e stove) the house comes with the golf cart, has a phone line in the bedroom to call back to the states., Wifi, a wasther/dryer, grill and kayak. Our little toddler (21 months old) loved the house and enjoyed running around the porch. What sets the Exumas apart from Nassau is that the Exumas are very safe, everyone is super friendly the customs stop was only 20 minutes long and there is so much to see in the Exumas. We flew via Watermakers (which we love) , Raymond "Bread Boy" picked us up at Staniel to take us over to Black Point (10 minute boat ride) and then we used Rayomond for two half days to show us around the Exumas. The Carribbean ocean in this area is very safe and shallow for little ones. We brought a floatie with a cover for our little one and she had a good time relaxing in the water!! We did bring food with us and picked up some extra snacks, ice cream and sodas at Adderly's. Everyone is so nice on the island and so accomadating. Every body knows everybody on the island and it was so nice to get away from the busy life in the states.

Christmas in Black Point

My family spent ten days over Christmas in Henry's home. The house was perfectly suited for the five of us - two adults and three teenagers. The view was breathtaking off the deck. I loved that we had direct access to two very different beaches - calm and serene vs. strong crashing waves of energy. We rented the boat and the golf cart for the whole time we were there and made great use of them everyday. Henry stocked our fridge and kitchen with the groceries we ordered ahead of time. The items we ran out of we picked up in the stores in Black Point or on Staniel Cay. (Being Christmas time, many people were away for their holidays so it was tricky to find when the stores in Black Point were open, but the locals made efforts to get us what we needed each time we asked!) We spent our days travelling amongst all the islands and yachts finding beaches to stop and picnic on. We stopped to visit the pigs and iguanas and spent lots of time snorkelling - especially at the sand bar. We ate our fill of fresh bread made by Lorraine's mom, ate at Lorraine's and DeShamon's restaurants as well as Staniel Cay when we stopped to fuel up the boat. Each day we went down to the dock, Magic (or Marco) had prepped our boat and had everything ready to go. It was one of our favourite family holidays and everyone came home with many adventures to share! We send a big thank you to Henry and all the locals that went out of their way to provide us with a fabulous holiday.

We had a FABULOUS stay here. Love, love, loved it! (2) adults and (3) kids: (15) (13) and (12) years

We had an absolutely wonderful family vacation for (5) at Henry's beautiful Vacation Home! The home was very nice with a well equipped Kitchen and (3) Bedrooms/(2) Full Bathrooms. We brought in our own food and cooked all but (5) meals over the corse of the week. We ate 2x's in town and 3x's at Staniel Cay Marina. The Blackened Grouper was yummy! We bought a few things at Adderly's Friendly Store (eggs, milk, soda, Ice cream, lettuce, etc.). Bring Cash, as it is the preferred payment method on most of the islands. Some places will take credit for an additional fee. US or Bahama cash is equally accepted and valued. The home was perfect for us. We used the Wifi in the evenings after sunset, and it worked great! The Guys even watched the Big 12 Tournament on the Dish TV. Really only did these things at night because there was too much to see and do durring the day. The short walk down to either beach was perfect. The Caribbean side has a HUGE cove with acres of sand to explore at low tide and shallow clear beautiful water otherwise. Most of our stay, that side was very calm. We learned how to snorkel here the first day. It was amazing to see the sunsets out this side of the house every night. Each one was more beautiful! There were sand dollars, star fish and other critters to look for and learn about in the cove. The twinkling of the mast lights of the sailboats at night was pretty, and during the day, watching which way the sailboats were pointing let you know which direction the wind was coming from. We rented Henry's boat for several days, and it was well worth it. We explored cays to the South one day and the North as far as Compass Cay (bring $10 per person to dock here and swim with the nurse sharks) on (3) other days. There are so many beautiful and interesting beaches to explore nearby in the boat. We saw the wild pigs on one, iguanas on another, and lots of places to stop and snorkel. Don't miss Thunderball Grotto across from Staniel Cay. It is an underwater/underground cave which is AMAZING! We anchored there, swam in and saw the cave and went around the corner and snorkeled outside it as well. Lots of fish to see. Santos is Henry's right hand man and was always able to help us if we had questions. We also met Bervin, who works on the island and he took us to/from the airport. He also took us to a beach on the South end of the island on our last day. Henry checked on us every day and was very helpful. This was our favorite vacation

A Little Disappointed

We arrived last Saturday (3/26) and the house appeared to be just like the pictures with the exception of the laundry. It does have laundry, but it is in a separate building and shared with the duplex Henry owns next door. Not a big deal, but should be in description - it had an electric shock when touched so we didn't use it. Saturday night we lost power at the house and I called Santo. He came right away w/ electrician and after temp fix that night, we lost power again Sunday morn. early. No power, phone and no charge for golf cart. We left early Mon. expecting to have power when we returned. No power at 4:00 when we returned. Finally after several attempts, electrician was able to get us power around 7:00. We lost all the groceries we paid Henry to purchase and stock. He did offer to replace them, but after smelling the spoiled food, all we wanted was the milk for my kids cereal, etc. Later in the week the golf cart wouldn't charge and we had no phone service. The beach and ocean are amazing! I've been all over Caribbean and Hawaii and this is by far the most beautiful water I've seen. Renting a boat is must. Not only was the boat fun, we were able to meet the owner of boat rental service Bread Boy. Such a great and friendly guy! Explained the area and got us a guide for 1/2 day to show us around. Magic was awesome also. Took his time showing us around and made sure we would not get lost. Saw him everyday and he always made the point to talk to all of us. You have to meet Bread Boy because you will literally see him everywhere. Bread Boy was so nice, he offered to give us a 2 bedroom unit for free Monday night if we didn't have power!!! Ran ( a local guide) took my son(15) and myself fishing. Another good time and exceptional young man. Helped for a wonderful experience and even used his own vegetables to make my family a fresh conch salad when we returned. People, KIDS, boat and outdoor adventure is great. Don't go expecting resort atmosphere and make sure you have groceries. Dining is an issue at restaurants but manageable. Many thanks to Santo for all the work and even going out of his way to see us at Staniel. My kids 15 and 13 are already looking for pictures of the awesome kids they met at the dock and basketball court.

Beautiful, convenient, accommodating, seamless communication

Everything was as described online. We arrived by sailboat and anchored in the harbor. Was able to dinghy to dock located down the road; a mere five minute walk to house. Henry coordinated a golf cart for our crew to explore the island. Loved seeing the nearby blow hole. Enjoyed a night out at Emeralds Sunset. Would recommend travelers remember mosquito repellent and citronella candles as is necessary for tropical environments.

An amazing stay in Black Point

This villa by far had the best view of the bay/boats/Black Point on one side and the rougher open ocean on the other. While some maintenance could be done to improve the overall property, the villa was very clean and well supplied with linens, towels and most kitchen essentials. Ample hot water supply for the 6 of us that stayed and all the essential appliances were provided. Marco and Santoe were a great help with getting some provisions and fixing small concerns as they arose. Overall a great spot for a relaxing vacation.
