Ocean view cottage on a quiet beach just minutes from swimming pigs

*Our property and island was NOT affected by Hurricane Dorian*

Escape to this tropical paradise nestled at the edge of the ocean. Experience full relaxation and privacy in the comfort of an island-style, yet modern cottage. The view from each window is breath taking and so is the pristine beach just outside the front door. Lounge on the wrap around deck to enjoy the cool ocean breeze, watch a Bahamian sunset or simply stargaze at nights while grilling your favorite catch. A full kitchen with appliances and utensils along with a washer and dryer adds to the convenience of your stay. After a day of adventure with the nearby world renown swimming pigs or tamed sharks, iguanas or simply snorkeling the famous James Bond, Thunderball Grotto or fishing, and sightseeing, turn in at nights to a comfortable queen size master bedroom with a private bathroom and a twin guest room with its private bathroom - all designed with comfort and relaxation in mind.

Blue Harbor Cottage

We had a fantastic stay at a lovely cottage. The location is stunning and the hosts, Sophia & Don, are fabulous. You won’t go wrong if you stay here, the island is extremely easy to get around with lots of activities or just chilling on the deck enjoying the view.

Amazing cottage & Lovely hosts!

This is an amazing cottage with unbelievable views and access (via private path) to a beautiful beach. The hosts are gracious, thoughtful, and accommodating. You couldn't ask for a better setting on Staniel Cay. You will need to rent a golf cart to enjoy this location and to get around--which was so much fun and a part of the charm of Staniel Cay! Our family greatly enjoyed our stay!

Stunningly Beautiful

My wife and our 2 teenage boys had an amazing stay on Staniel Cay at the Harbor Blue Cottage. The house was spacious, clean, and with brand new modern appliances and air conditioning. The view from the deck of small bay off Pirates Beach was stunningly beautiful. There's a small path down to the beach itself which is semi-private and delightful. Many of the previous guests in the sign in book had been there before, and we can see why. It will be hard to go anywhere else in the Carribean after this!

From the time we landed until we departed, we had an amazing time. Amazing cottage with spectacular views. We had everything we needed and when we had an issue with the golf cart, Don was very quick to help us and we were on our way again. Just love this small island with an amazing community.

Lovely cottage/great location

While it was only a few minutes from the airport and yacht club, it felt quiet and secluded. It was adjacent to Pirate Trap beach and had a some nice snorkeling right off the deck. The cottage was well stocked with new looking couches, pillows and lounge chairs. All in all, an awesome experience. We will return.

Sunsets, Beach, Privacy, Water-front Porch, and Ample Space

Very nice two bedroom, two bath, full kitchen home, with full wrap-around porch, the back side right on the waterfront, steps away from Pirate's Beach, usually with no one there but you and yours. Could not be more happy with the host, caretaker, property, appliances (even a washer/dryer), and support. Property owner can reserve a golf cart for your stay if you wish. Will certainly ask to stay there again.

A special Spot

All facets of our stay were stellar. Sohpia and Don were always available and helpful to answer questions and/or help while staying at Harbor Blue. The cottage is an oasis on the Cay. Spectacular views of both sky and waters. Make sure you spend time on the deck in the morning watching the life underwater right under your feet. Can't say enough good things about our experience.

Paradise

There is not enough words to say how much our family (2 adults and 2 teens) enjoyed our stay. Sophia was full of information and helped make sure our time at Staniel Cay was perfect. Don made everything seemless once we arrived. We are grateful for both of them and their wealth of information. The rental was comfortable and provided everything we needed for a homebase during our week of adventures in the Exumas. We hope to be back sooner than later, especially if it involves a big hug from Don. Thank you guys 💙💛 - The Moore Fam

Our stay couldn't have been better. Don was wonderful. Met us and helped us get our luggage to the house as well as coordinated getting us a golfcart for our stay. The beds are AMAZING and the house location can't be beat. It has direct access to the best beach and snorkel spot with tons of sand dollars and fun for the kiddos. They provided everything we needed and the washer and dryer was a wonderful perk coming off a week on the water. Highly recommend it! We will be back for sure!

Spectacular!

If I could give 10 stars I would. The house was clean, well equipped and has one of the best views on the island. We saw sharks and turtles swim right by the deck, found sand dollars in the bay and saw lots of fish while snorkling the rock banks. Sophia and Don were wonderful! They made sure we were all set up and taken care of, even messenging one evening to let us know of a communication outage on the island. We definitely recommend renting the golf cart with the house; it was also very well kept and the perfect island transportation. We will be back to Staniel Cay and Harbour Blue is the only place we want to stay!
