About this property
Sunset Point Houseboat, a gem of a place
Our awesome location offers peaceful living above the tides, with ocean views, swimming, beautiful birds, kayaking, starry starry skies and of course fantastic fishing, making the houseboat a must stay holiday rental. Here on Andros island our guests enjoy our wonderful accommodations, relishing the simple elegance of the houseboat, while basking in the outstanding natural environment, clear horizons and unbeatable fresh air. We are definitely far from the crowds.
This unique wooden two storey houseboat has three air conditioned en suite bedrooms, each with a private porch which overlooks the creek. There are two bedrooms upstairs and a king sized studio bedroom downstairs, the beds are comfortable with 100% cotton linens and hand crafted quilts. There is a well equipped kitchen, pleasant lounge, breakfast bar, plus a dining and social area. On the decks we have loungers and adirondack chairs, a picnic table and shade umbrella. The houseboat has decks on three sides so you can always find a spot to fish and bathe in the sun or the shade, read a book, paint the scene, play music, it's a wonderful spot to give yourself the time and space to unwind and enjoy.
The houseboat stands permanently and securely moored in the tidal waters of Fresh Creek, Andros and is connected to the land by a small bridge. It's a rejuvenating place to spend a vacation, a unique gem set in a natural aquarium. The ocean flows under and all around you, marine life swims right by, you'll enjoy a swim or snorkel, fishing and star gazing while relaxing and having fun in this lovely spot.
The houseboat is located on the bone fishing flats of Fresh Creek, you'll be able to wade for miles and fly fish to your heart's content, or enjoy just sitting on the houseboat deck and throwing in your line, bringing in your catch and popping it in the frying pan! If you would like to have a fishing guide we can help you find one of our professional 'best in the business' guides for either fly fishing or reef fishing, snorkeling or bird watching, just let me know and I will connect the dots for you.
Andros is renowned for being off the beaten track, here the Eco tourist can enjoy the fishing, swimming, snorkeling, scuba diving, hiking, kayaking and beaching.
Andros is famous for scuba diving and snorkeling, the third largest barrier reef in the world lies just a mile off the eastern shoreline. Our favorite day includes a snorkel in Fresh Creek, if you watch the tides you could ride along with them as the water floods through the creek you will be swept along!
The blue holes of Andros are a must to visit, they are fresh water holes where swimming is a treat and are found deep in the heart of the island in The Blue Holes National Park.
Birders delight in the wildlife experience that Andros has to offer, this island is a destination of choice for North American migratory birds, and our island birds are impressive too.
The island of Andros has at least a hundred miles of unspoiled deserted beaches, I know you'll find your favorite sandy spot. The island is a super destination for walkers too, you'll enjoy great hikes through the National Parks and along the deserted beaches.
If you would like to explore the island a rental car can be arranged to meet you on arrival or picked up mid stay.
Kayaks are also here to explore the creek.
Other things to note: There is air conditioning in the bedrooms only. WIFI is available in the main house located just across the garden or the WIFI box can be rented for $10 per day. There is NO bank on the island so please bring some US $ cash along with you as although most businesses do accept cards some can only take cash. Please smoke outside the houseboat.
