Nice and quiet
Review submitted: January 10, 2010 Date of arrival: December 28, 2009
We had a great time. Spanish Wells was just what we were looking for. Nice and quiet. Your cottage is beautiful. It was equipped with everything we needed. The thought you put into planing it and building it shows. It is a wonderful place to spend your time. The view to the beach and the blue, blue water is unforgettable. Back here in the frozen north I have gone back to that beach in my head, floating in the warm salt water, moving with the waves until I wash up on the beach. This memory will get me through the winter.....maybe. Everyone on the island smiles and waves. This was incredible. It was calming. There was no street stress. I felt welcome all the time. The food was great. We tried all of the restaurants. Normas' was a favourite but the Anchor was right up there too.
Tony was very nice. We always knew she was there if we had any questions.
It is a great place to walk. Walking on the beach, walking on the streets and walking over to Russell island. Even though it is a small place there are still places we did not see. We'll have to come back. I have only one complaint. I don't have enough of a suntan. I wasn't there long enough. We have to go back again if you'll have us?
Bahama Hoppers was excellent. A very nice man and an excellent pilot.
Spanish Wells was great. We will come back to Spanish Wells.
Thank you for a great memory.

Will return!
Review submitted: January 10, 2010 Date of arrival: September 7, 2009
We had a fantastic time. The cottage was more than we expected, very quaint and picturesque, just what one would expect in the outer islands. It is also very comfortable. We never used the stove, only the microwave oven, as we bought our meals from Norma's take away and from the roadside stalls. Norma's may not be fancy but the food is great and good value. Mrs. Pinder took very good care of us. We will definitely return. Next time we will bring our son and his family.

Delightful beach
Review submitted: January 10, 2010 Date of arrival: July 4, 2009
The beach is a delight; perfect white sands kissed by an azure sea. Pink Sands Cottage is ideal for 4 adults or for a small family and its location near the beach is perfect.
We enjoyed our two day trips to Eleuthera and Harbour island. Harbour island is upmarket but well worth beating yourself to a visit. The water and land taxi connections work extremely well, even when returning at 11 PM, even later. $5 a head for the water taxi to Jean's bay and the same from North Eleuthera to Harbour island. Land taxi is approx $30 one way.
You have to visit the liquor store if you enjoy the occasional alcoholic beverage.
We recommend Norma's hut for a fish sandwich, coated in their own seasoning or fresh fish, they're great.

Welcoming and clean
Review submitted: January 10, 2010 Date of arrival: October 1, 2009
We absolutely want to tell you that we have very much appreciated our stay in your cottage and on your island!
Your cottage is welcoming, clean and very well situated. Its architecture and its decoration respect the environment.
Your caretakers have been welcoming and very courteous, everything has been perfect. People are smiling, welcoming and polite, and what to say about the views...
Perhaps, we will come back next year... if it is possible...
We have been honoured being your first guests.
