We stayed eight days at this property and truly enjoyed our time. Robert and Karen, our hosts, are always there if you need them but never intrusive. It is only accessible by boat so a dinghy is provided and you can park your golf cart right across the way as opposed to in the town center. The house was exceptionally clean with really good AC and a comfortable feel.. There is a nice little pool to cool off in and a screen porch to keep the bugs away. One of our better vacation rental experiences.

Perfect Paradise
Pictures just don’t show how beautiful and perfect this place is! The hosts, Karen and Robert, are the most wonderful people you could ever meet. If you want the real Abaco, then stay here! The included dinghy was great for hopping into Hopetown or across the creek to our cart. We always rent a boat and docking on the creek at their beautiful docks was wonderfully easy. The yard is secluded and you feel like you are indeed in an exclusive paradise. We felt completely at home in the house that had everything we could want and the flowering grounds and pool outside our screened porch were wonderful! Such a treat when Robert picked some bananas off their trees for us; and urged us to take as many as we wanted! Being dog lovers it was an extra bonus to meet their dog Rollie; a lover so well trained that he will leave you alone, wagging his tail and hoping, but not approaching unless invited. We are already planning to return!

Unique Experience that didn't disappoint.
My wife and I had a great 4-day weekend and wasn't disappoint with our choice of accommodations. Love the dingy experience and location. We were close to everything but at the same time enjoyed the complete privacy of our own island. Thank you, Karen.

Perfect Bahamas Vacation
What a glorious and relaxing stay we had at Gully's Nest! We loved the quiet location, away from the main road but quickly accessible by the dinghy to where our golf cart awaited. The property had ideal docking for our rental boat as well. Gully's Nest was warm, inviting, and comfortable, and our hosts were so kind and hospitable. Thank you for welcoming us into your home!! We hope to return for another visit!!

Easy Living
Absolutely loved the house, the quiet surroundings, and Karen and Robert were extremely helpful. We enjoyed getting a bit more of a sense of a local flavor by getting away from the marina and meeting folks at the dock as they cleaned their fish. The house itself had everything we needed - great place

Best decision to stay here!
You won’t regret taking this stunning location. It’s water access only, but you get a little boat to head into town any time you want (3 minutes by boat may be exaggerating how long it takes!). The pool is awesome as well. Super refreshing. The lot is so private. The birds sound beautiful there and the limes from the key lime tree are delicious!
Do follow Karen’s advice to do the following:
1. Take a cab from airport to marsh harbour
2. If you have time, stop at Maxwells and get your groceries. Get as much as you need and have them put it in boxes. It works!! Stop and get beer or wine as well.
3. When you get to the ferry at marsh harbour, load your stuff in a wagon and bring your stuff to the dock. They will load everything on the boat for you.
4. When you get to the last stop LODGE DOCK, karen or Robert will meet you on their boat. You literally hand your bags and boxes of food over the side into their boat. Once on property, your stuff gets loaded into a golf cart and driven up to your place. That was soooo easy!!!
Charter Robert to take you fishing. He knows these waters and you will have a great time! (This is from someone who is anxious on the water!)
You are in good hands with Robert and Karen.
Enjoy your time there. You won’t regret staying here!!

Great Stay
We had a great time at Gully's Nest. This was our 4th trip to Abaco in 8 years (3rd time in 4 years) but our first visit to Seagull Cottages. The house is in good shape and is bigger than I expected from the photos. The five of us (one on an air mattress) had plenty of room. In addition we hosted two dinner gatherings for family and friends of at least 10-12 people with no problem. On of the the dinners was a fish dinner with fresh Mutton Snapper thanks to a fishing charter with had with Robert (Karen's husband). The pool was clean and a nice treat to have after spending the day on the water.
Karen, Robert and their family live on the property and are good people, very helpful, but not intrusive. You can see them as much or as little as you want. Karen was a big help in resolving a problem I had with a golf cart rental.
Overall, I wholeheartedly recommend the cottage, and will rent there again when back in Abaco. A reminder that the house is only accessible by boat, which was no problem for us, but must be considered when renting.

What a fabulous experience we had staying at Gullys nest in Elbow Cay.
The location was perfect as it was extremely quite and peaceful but only a few minutes by boat to the picturesque little town of Hope Town.
The small boat is provided free of charge which was perfect.
The home itself was more than we could have hoped for.
Extremely well maintained and clean with just the right amount of Bahamian flare.
It was very spacious and well priced for Elbow Cay.
Upon arrival Karen, the owner had picked an assortment of fruit from there own fruit trees and had this for us to snack on.
We have stayed at many VRBO'S over the years and she was by far the most amazing host to date.
She has lived on the Island for for many years and knows everyone.
This was such a help to us when it came to booking a larger boat to check out some other islands and the golf cart we rented for a few days.
She was always on hand with great suggestions for restuarants, things to see on the Island and places to visit on the other islands.
She told us where to find the best beach on the island which was just across the canal from her home and where we had the entire beach to ourselves.
My husband had a very badly sprained ankle which occurred the day we left for our vacation and Karen went out of her way to call around the friends on the island and found us a cane for him to hobble around on.
She would bend over backwards for us and was so giving it made our trip even more enjoyable.
Her husband is a local and is the best fisherman on the Island, unfortunately for us he was away fishing while we were there our we would have booked a day of fishing with him.
This was highly recommended by many people we met.
You will not be disappointed if you choose to spend your holiday at this home and the warmth and generosity of the host will just enhance your experience.

One of or favorites!
We first experience Gully’s Nest (2BR 2BA) when some friends invited us to join them at Hope Town. Seagull Cottages was their regular place to stay, and has also become ours in our yearly visit to Hope Town. The facilities meet our needs and desires well. The private dock and fish cleaning station are a blessing. We have our own boat, but still charter Robert for at least half a day (renters get a discount), because the experience is that good. While I go fishing, my wife chooses to lounge on the porch or by the pool, or to explore the shops in town. With the rental comes a small boat which makes going to town or exploring the harbor a simple possibility. The easy access docks make getting in and out of the boats pretty easy no matter how high or low the tide. We especially enjoy Gully's Ridge because it's close enough to the restaurants and what's happening in town, but also provides us a sense of privacy. Robert and Karen are wonderful and friendly hosts, and the dock to door service is great.
