About this property
The Boat House – Where History, Harbor, and Lighthouse Converge
In the very heart of Hope Town’s cherished settlement—where pastel cottages, winding lanes, and the rhythms of island life have endured for generations—stands The Boat House, a thoughtfully renovated 2-bedroom, 2-bath sanctuary designed for those who long to be immersed in authentic Bahamian charm.
Here, you are not merely near Hope Town…you are part of it. Step outside your door and find yourself within effortless walking distance of every essential pleasure: beloved restaurants and cafés, quaint shops, grocery stores, public docks, and the daily hum of village life. And just minutes away, the turquoise brilliance of one of the most breathtaking beaches on earth awaits—soft sand, endless horizon, and the gentle Atlantic whispering against the shore.
Property Highlights
- 2 Bedrooms | 2 Bathrooms - Sleeps up to 4 guests - Completely renovated with modern comforts and coastal finishes - Two first-floor guest rooms, each with its own private balcony - Jack-and-Jill shared bathroom on the first floor - Open-concept upper level with panoramic harbor-facing living spaces - Fully equipped kitchen with brand-new appliances - Second full bathroom with shower on the upper floor - Lush garden and yard for quiet moments outdoors - ¾ outdoor shower perfect after a beach day - Backup generator for peace of mind - Pets considered on a case-by-case basis
An easy stroll to restaurants, shops, stores, docks, and beaches. Parking not available. Parking for this house is located adjacent to the Post Office dock just a short walk away.
Inside, The Boat House offers a calm, airy retreat. The first floor welcomes guests with two serene bedrooms, each opening to a private balcony—ideal for savoring the salt-kissed morning air. The shared Jack-and-Jill bath provides quiet practicality and comfort.
Ascend to the second floor and the true magic unfolds. Light pours through wide windows, illuminating an open living space where kitchen, dining, and lounge blend seamlessly. From the upper balcony, the view is nothing short of cinematic: the harbor stretching out like a watercolor, and the world-famous candy-striped lighthouse rising unobstructed before you—both day and night—a living symbol of Hope Town’s soul.
After an afternoon of beachcombing or boating, return to the gentle hush of the gardens, or step into the outdoor shower and let the warm breeze remind you why island time feels different—slower, softer, sweeter.
