DIRECT FLIGHTS FROM SOUTH FLORIDA:

MAKERS AIR flies direct from Fort Lauderdale Executive Airport to Stella Maris on certain days. You can purchase individual seats or charter the entire plane. —www.makersair.com—
A private charter in a 9-passsenger typically costs $10k - $14k. This price includes both the outgoing and return trips. If you have a large group this can be an economical and convenient way to travel. Skip the major airports and long lines of customs/immigration!

COMMERCIAL FLIGHTS TO STELLA MARIS VIA NASSAU (NAS):
This is the most common route taken to Long Island. Nassau International Airport is the major air hub for the Bahamas with many direct flights from the USA, Canada & London. Major carriers include Jet Blue, American Airlines, Delta, United, Air Canada, British Airways, West Jet and Bahamasair. Upon arrival in Nassau, you will need to clear customs/immigration and then take a short flight to Long Island. Stella Maris Resort Air Service can pick you up in Nassau and fly you directly to Stella Maris in one of their resort aircraft. This flight is extraordinarily beautiful and lasts about one hour. Rock Hill is less than a mile from the runway.

Stella Maris Resort Air Service is the preferred way to reach Stella Maris. However, Southern Air Charter, Island Wings Charter & Bahamasair also offer daily flights to Stella Maris and Deadman's Cay Airport. Please note that Stella Maris Airport is much more convenient.

Rock Hill was designed as a relaxed island getaway by Strang Design, an award-winning, Miami-based architecture firm. The villa's clean, minimal interiors reflect a mastery of the island modern aesthetic. Long Island is world-famous for its pristine waters and endless miles of white, sandy beaches and coves.

Rock Hill features a total of 4 Bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms. Layout: two Master Suites are on the top floor and a Bunk Room (4 beds total) and additional Master Suite on the lower floor.

A Great Room and Lanai offer stunning panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean. The interiors include furnishings from Restoration Hardware, Design Within Reach and Room & Board. Please note this villa is not suitable for the elderly, toddlers and very young children due to some unprotected walkways, terraces and stairs.

You have free access to the stunning pools/beaches of Stella Maris Resort.

A rental car is not necessary to enjoy yourself at Rock Hill, however, rental cars are strongly recommended for longer stays and/or if you'd like the freedom to explore the entire island at your leisure. Our property manager, Bruno, will assist in arranging rental SUVs for your stay. They can be left at the airport or house for your convenience.

Prior to your arrival, you can email a shopping list to our property manager and your fridge/pantry will be stocked when you arrive.

All persons are required to have a valid passport for travel to The Bahamas (certain nationalities may require a Visa). If arriving into Stella Maris Airport, our property manager will greet you at the airport. You will need to use a taxi service or your rental car to get to the villa... only two minutes away! - TESTIMONIALS—- “Great Stay. Beautiful house and fantastic views! Would definitely stay here again.”— Jason S.

- “Absolutely beautiful home with fabulous deck and great ocean views. The house was everything as advertised plus some… Really enjoyed the shuffleboard court in the yard and being able to walk to the beach, a good restaurant and the bar. Would definitely stay here again and really miss the relaxed way of life on Long Island.”— Diana V.

- “Breathtaking! Great location, clean, spacious, great layout, beautiful decor, stunning views. Everything you need is here!”— Beth J.

- “Our second stay at Rock Hill was as wonderful as the first. Beautifully situated with short walks to relaxing beaches, bar and restaurant; it was the perfect getaway for our family. Bruno, the property manager, again made it as easy and comfortable as an island vacation should be!”— Trond S.

- “Perfection! Beautifully designed house in the perfect location. We loved it!!! We will go back, for sure.”— Amanda V.

- “Magical Place, Magical People… I want to go back! My two friends and I stayed six nights and felt like we found the best place to stay on the island. The house is like one from a magazine that you dream about living in. It’s clean, modern, uncluttered and inviting.”— Lori S.

- “Paradise… Our stay was beyond our expectations! The location was perfect and accessible to so many things. The view of the ocean from the porch is breathtaking. The house itself was clean, comfortable and very tasteful. The home has a perfect layout for a family or for several couples staying together.”— Beth J.

-“Magical View… I wish we could still be there. This place is wonderful. Owner and Bruno are very good hosts.”— Matt E.

-“Private Paradise… Clean, modern house. Island is perfect for those looking to get away from the crowds! Carlos T.

-“Amazing Property… Amazing Stay! We absolutely loved staying at Rock Hill. You have access to all of the amenities that Stella Maris has to offer, but the privacy of your own space— and you get a TON of space. The views are out of this world.”— Christina S.

-“Comfortable.. Airy… Private… Modern Island Home. Lovely breezes on the back verandah. We enjoyed the walks, the rock pools, the Adderley ruins… Deans Blue Hole & Cape Santa Maria.” — Lynn P.

—“Sun, Shells, Lobster & Luxury! Our family had the most wonderful time staying at Rock Hill. The location is very convenient for exploring the northern end of the island, which affords access to some pristine Caribbean and Atlantic beaches. In particular, we enjoyed discovering some of the more isolated beaches near Columbus Monument. Rock Hill is a short walk from Stella Maris Resort and they were very welcoming.”— Elizabeth S.

-“Gorgeous House and Views on Long Island! Our week at Rock Hill exceeded all of our expectations. As a family of 3 from New York City (11 year old son) we have been renting vacation homes in the Bahamas for the past fifteen years. We had become a bit complacent and tended to visit the same island year after year and felt like we needed to expand our horizons and experience more of what the Bahamas has to offer. We had truly an amazing time and we are already planning our return!”— Meredith K.

    This property was perfectly appointed, providing every accommodation one can expect and then some. Regarding anything we didn't like about t property or staff managing the property, I could not think of any. Extremely satisfied!!!

    This beautiful 4 BR, duplex villa was built for a designer and architect. It is informal, open, functional and well stocked with everything needed for cooking and serving meals. Each BR has it's own en-suite bathroom. The showers are HUGE and warm water is plentiful. There were ample beach towels and sun hats provided. A dedicated water cooler with large bottles of spring water provided all needed potable water. The house is approx 1kM from the Stella Maris resort and 0.5kM from the Stella Maris beach and beach bar.The host (Bruno) was attentive, available and very helpful. He arranged for a rental car and we gave him a shopping list of groceries which were already in the house when we arrived.

    This is such a quiet, peaceful location!What we loved about the house:- well appointed with very comfortable beds - access to the pool next door (although the pool water was a bit chilly for me- my kids didn't seem to mind!) - very clean, modern decor, low clutter- lots of extras (kids games, books, cooking supplies, spices, ice cube trays, extra drinking water, beach towels)- Property Manager support: Bruno was very helpful in getting us checked in, assisting with grocery shopping (I HIGHLY recommend this add on service) and ensuring our rental vehicle and transport were set up (also recommend using Bruno for car rental coordination) . We only ran into 1 hiccup on arrival when the electricity was out, but it was short lived & was up within a couple of hours and Bruno checked in & ensured we had what we needed during this brief disruption.What we loved about the location of house:- proximity to Moonshine Beach Bar, Erna's Nature pool & Stella Maris resort- Beaches nearby: Love beach, Cape Santa Maria, Dealts beach.We would not hesitate to stay here again, thank you for sharing your home with us!

    My family consisting of my husband, 2 adult daughters (27 & 19) and their fiancé/boyfriend and 2 teen daughters (16 & 14) absolutory loved staying at Rock Hill and would not hesitate to do so again. The property is spacious and has a beautiful view, though you do have to make a short drive to enjoy truly swimmable beaches. The Moonshine Bar is great for an afternoon snack and a frozen beverage...enjoyed almost daily by our entire party. They also have some fun weekly rum parties with music and such. The dining room at Stella Maris is good and works in a pinch, but it is expensive. I recommend Tiny's for exceptionally good food, beautiful views and a delightful breeze. Bruno was wonderfully attentive and you don't realize how nice that is until you deal with less than attentive property managers! A couple of things that would make the stay more enjoyable are: 1. A couple of cushy chairs or a more traditional sofa - while my girls seemed to enjoy the sofa (which is very low to the ground and has very little cushion), my husband most definitely did not. 2. A television in living room/bedrooms - after a long day of snorkeling/adventuring we enjoy watching movies as a family. We were able to hook our laptop to the projector and watch Netflix, but it was a bit more effort than would be necessary if there was a TV in the space. A TV in the master rooms would also be nice when you want to escape your family and catch an episode of whatever you are binging. Overall - Excellent!

    We had a blast on Long Island and really enjoyed Rock Hill. The house is perched up on a hill overlooking the Atlantic. It’s a great space for a large group with large open spaces and a fantastic porch. Bring bug spray because the bugs are brutal. We enjoyed the Stella Maris resort and our day on the boat with Docky. We also loved driving up to Cape Santa Maria, eating at the resort and enjoying the beach. Tiny’s and Docky’s Flats Bar were our best dining experiences. Bruno was really helpful with information about the island, what to do, where to eat, etc. It was a great family vacation and the house made extra special and enjoyable.
