The Blue Bungalow: A charming cottage set above the water in Harbour Island

Check in was a snap. The bungalow was so pretty, clean and cozy. The outdoor patio allows for relaxation while watching all the harbor activity. And so close to all the great restaurants, marinas and shops. We love this little gem and hope to visit again!

This was a very well maintained house for 2, I loved the location, it was peaceful, I had wondered if being near the dock would add noise but it didn’t. The paddle board I wasn’t aware that the house came with, so that was an added bonus there were 2 paddle boards but 1 had low air in it. We paddle around and starfish and turtles.the house has a coffee machine we didn’t use because I was worried what water was put in it. Don’t drink the tap water on island I was told, also there’s a nice toaster oven we didn’t cook much at the house because it’s almost just as expensive as the restaurants for two.Over all I would rent this cabin again. However I do think this cute little island has gone down hill since my visit 12 years ago when they had zero cars on the island and only golf carts, sad about that, but the beaches are still beautiful quiet and amazing!! 4 nights was a perfect stay, the house had a wonderful mattress, cold a/c, know that it does have steep stairs going to front door and also steps from bedroom to kitchen bathroom. It had beach towels and plenty of bath towels. The bathroom is a little small. And the window in the bathroom could use a better shade with view of the street. We just put a towel over it. And also have a closet you could hang dresses. Enjoy

My husband and I loved staying in the Blue Bungalow. The location is great and the cottage was clean and tidy. Will definitely book again for our next trip!

We had the best stay at the blue bungalow. It is our favorite VRBO to date. The location is perfect, easy to get to from the government dock and close to everything. The views were incredible, and paddle boarding off of our dock was a highlight of our trip. Highly recommend booking here!

Pictures don’t do it justice. It is clean, comfortable and quaint. Updated chic Bahamian bungalow great for 1-2 people. The porch on the water is so peaceful and the sunsets are awesome! I thought it would be dated but it isn’t! Right in town, walk to great restaurants. Excellent hosts. I will be back!

Just 2 of us in town for a wedding. PLace was perfect! Well equipped with cooking supplies, dishes, coffee maker and full size frig.The view off the back is stunning for sunset or anytime you want to relax. (Plenty of room to do yoga for 2) LOVED everything about it!

Harbour Island did not disappoint and the Blue Bungalow was the cherry on top! The house, location, views.. all of it was just perfection. Sunsets were pristine. I will say my husband and I recently stayed somewhere that was a little musty, so we were nervous about the 4/10 rating from another reviewer. As far as the blue bungalow, it might have been a tiny bit stuffy when we walked in, but this resolved as soon as we turned on the A/C and didn’t notice it the remainder of our trip. I can imagine any house this close to the water would be the exact same. The listing is exactly as described, but far past our expectations. We appreciated all the recommendations and were pleasantly surprised that housekeeping made an appearance to clean up, freshen bedding and switch out towels half way through our stay! The beach is a few min drive by golf cart or maybe a 15 min walk, depending on which beach access you use (we walked and rode without issues). Regardless the beaches were empty and December is definitely the time to visit if you want an entire beach to yourself! For reference to other new visitors to the island— my husband and I highly recommend eating breakfast at The Landing, the ricotta pancakes and French Toast are both Chefs Kiss!!! Thank you to the host! If we ever come back to Harbour Island, we will stay here again. In the meantime, I will recommend this house to friends and family!

Perfect spot to explore the island. Pros: Location. Lots of day time activity on dock Easy check in and short walk from dock Short walk to lovely beach and chair rentals Cottage is small, and may not work for people who are immobile, but it’s well appointed, comfy, and cute The AC and fans kept us very comfy. The rental agent was great with communications and follow-up. Cons: None! We will be back

Wonderful! Top notch property. Great location. Interior well done and beautifully equipped. As advertised.

The little Blue Bungalow was just as described. Perfect for 2 people and walking distance to restaurants. I would suggest renting a golf cart to enjoy the beaches.

We enjoyed our Blue Bungalow stay. It is cozy but has all that we needed for our 5 day stay in Bahamas for a family wedding.
