The property was exactly as pictured. Great place place to stay if you really want to experience island life. This location leaves you about 15 to 30 minutes from most locations you want to visit. Supermarket is a stones throw away and barbara was a great host.
We enjoyed our stay. The unit was exactly as advertised. It was safe and clean. The location is great too, but you will definitely need a vehicle! Rent from Barbara. Affordable rental and cheaper than taxis. The internet is just okay. You will need to be in the front room to get the best service. . We would stay here again when we come back to the Bahamas
This is a no frills property. However, Barbara, our host was phenomenal. She went over and above to make sure we were comfortable and provided us with a vehicle and a driver at a reasonable fee. Thanks Barbara and Jason for making out time in the Bahamas memorable. We will def come again.
During our 3 week stay we never heard from our host Jonathan. Barbara, the lady in the attached unit next door makes this place run!
From picking us up & dropping us off at the airport, she was a pleasure to deal with. She ensured there was always a replacement jug of purified water for replacement when ours ran out, and provided a cell phone with GPS to help us navigate the island.
When our rental vehicle had a flat tire, she had it repaired in 2 hours. All minor issues with our unit were handled quickly and professionally.
The unit is a no frills accommodation and was clean and comfortable. It's listed as a 3 bedroom, but there are only 2. The 3rd bed is a pullout couch in the living room/dining room area.
Other than that, all the amenities were as per the listing.
Overall our stay was excellent. I rated five star because the host was very responsive, attentive and available. When we messaged regarding minimal issues Barbara responded and attended to the issue quickly. She was friendly, relatable and easy to talk to. This is one of the best properties we have stayed at in Nassau. I would recommend this property to anyone who enjoys comfort and nice, friendly hosts. Thanks for having us.
My family and I had an amazing experience staying at the Bougainvillea Inn. It offered all of the comforts of home and Barbara is warm and welcoming. This was our first time staying here but it won't be our last, we'll be back!
Staying at Barbara's property is great for anyone looking to spend time in "the real" Nassau. The neighborhood is quiet yet situated close to everything that you could want or need. Barbara is wonderful. She's right there if you need anything. I highly recommend staying here.
Big thank you to Barbara (our host) she was super nice. Thanks for everything! Our family had a great time. Thanks for car it worked out so well. Love the Dove family #TeamDove

I loved this property; it was very clean and comfortable. Barbara was awesome anything we needed she made it available. I enjoyed coming home to this house because it was cozy, and I was able to really relax. I also liked the fact that she had a car available to rent. If you rent the car, she picks you up from the airport and takes you back when you fly out.

L'hôtesse Barbara est très accueillante et accommodante pour ses invités. Il y a tout ce qu'il faut pour être confortable à un prix qui est plus abordable que la majorité des hébergements à Nassau. On est dans la vraie vie des Bahamiens dans ce secteur. Ce n'est pas un lieu touristique, mais on se sentait tout de même en sécurité. Plusieurs épiceries à proximité. Toutefois, l'hébergement est situé un peu loin des plages et des attractions touristiques. Une voiture est nécessaire pour s'y rendre, mais il est possible d'en louer une à Barbara à un prix très abordable.

Alles in allem war die Unterkunft super, ist etwas außerhalb und die Nachbarn sind alles Einheimische. Parken konnte man direkt vor der Türe und der Kontakt mit Barbara war super!
Très bon accueil de la part de Barbara. La maison est très propre et les utilités fonctionnent bien. (Wi-Fi ). Barbara nous fourni un GPS. On a bien profité de la location de la voiture.Je n'hésite pas à recommander cette propriété considérant le prix et la tranquillité
Barbara is a wonderful host. The property is exactly as described. It's great for a family of 3 or more. Especially with 2 bathrooms. The property is centrally located in the heart of Nassau. If you're looking to get out and experience Nassau and not just stay in your resort, this is a great place to do it.
The property was very comfortable. She made me feel at home. She had lots of extras towels sheets cleaning products soaps that some other places don't come with. She always was available for any questions.
We stayed for a month and our host was great. The area was quiet and easy to get to all the places we needed to go. The villa was clean and you are provided with plenty of supplies and linens and beach chairs/towels! It is also bug free!!! We will definitely stay here again. I believe she has a car to rent as well if needed. We loved our stay!!
The property is well maintained.
We enjoyed our stay, the owners were very nice and responsive with any questions we had.
Would definitely stay there again!
I cannot say enough about this villa. This villa is very beautiful and it's location is perfect and peaceful. The villa manager very friedly, kind, courteous and very helpful.
We enjoyed our stay at this Villa as the environment/house was clean, comfortable and property owner easily accessible and who is very pleasant. The Villa is suited out with the necessary amenities and arranged for your comfort. We will definitely be staying here on our next trip to the Bahamas.
