About this property

Waterfront Cottage in Spanish Wells' protected harbor

  • The Harbour House

    The Harbour House is a charming, waterfront two-bedroom, two-bathroom cottage located on the southeast end of Spanish Wells, just 30 feet from the water's edge in the island's protected harbor. Completely renovated in 2016, the cottage is ideal for families, friends, couples, and fishing enthusiasts looking for a comfortable and convenient place to enjoy all that Spanish Wells and the surrounding waters have to offer.

    The first floor features an open, fully air-conditioned layout, with the living room, dining area, and kitchen flowing seamlessly from one space to the next. A portion of the living area can be converted into a semi-private sleeping area with a daybed that converts to either a king-size bed or two twin beds. The remainder of the living room provides a comfortable couch and chair for relaxing, watching television, or surfing the Internet using the included Wi-Fi.

    Also located on the first floor is a full bathroom with a shower/tub combination. The bright and colorful kitchen is equipped with the dishes, cookware, and appliances needed to prepare meals during your stay, including a full-size refrigerator, stove, oven, microwave, and chest freezer.

    Just outside the back door, a deck includes a gas BBQ grill, table, chairs, and an outdoor shower.

    Arguably the best feature of the main level is the full-length front porch overlooking the harbor. Furnished with Adirondack chairs and equipped with three ceiling fans, the porch is a perfect place to relax and watch boats of all shapes and sizes pass through the harbor.

    The second floor has been completely remodeled and includes two bedrooms, a bathroom with a shower, a separate vanity area, a laundry room, and air conditioning throughout. The master bedroom features a queen-size bed, ceiling fan, harbor views, and its own air-conditioning control. Just outside the master bedroom are the vanity sink, bathroom, and shower.

    The second bedroom has two twin beds, harbor views, a ceiling fan, and its own air-conditioning control. For your convenience, the laundry room includes a full-size washer and dryer.

    The Harbour House is conveniently located within easy walking distance of grocery stores, shops, churches, and restaurants. The beautiful beaches on the north and west sides of the island are only a short golf-cart ride away.

    Spanish Wells is also an ideal destination for those who enjoy exploring the water. Depending on your interests, you can spend the day visiting the pristine beaches of Royal Island, Russell Island, Meeks Patch, or Egg Island; snorkeling and fishing along Devils Backbone Reef; heading offshore in search of dolphin, wahoo, and tuna; visiting the Glass Bridge and Queen's Bath; or exploring the surrounding islands and cays. The possibilities are nearly endless.

    The Harbour House is a comfortable cottage with the amenities needed for a relaxing and enjoyable vacation. Our local caretaker, Johnny, can assist with airport transportation, meet you upon your arrival, help familiarize you with the Harbour House and Spanish Wells, and address any issues that may arise during your stay. He also rents golf carts and boats, making it convenient to arrange transportation and explore the island and surrounding waters.

    The calendar is kept up to date, so if the Harbour House is available for your desired dates, please let us know if we can help with your lodging needs.
