Sportsman's Paradise on the Grand Lucayan Waterway w/ large dock, pool, cabana
Villa Lucaya is a tropical oasis with over 300 feet of water frontage on the crystal-clear Grand Lucayan Waterway. Stretching across Grand Bahama, the waterway serves as a navigational channel for boaters and allows ease of access to the north and south sides of the island for all of your fishing, diving, and boating needs.
Set in an exclusive enclave, Villa Lucaya offers a rare level of privacy with no immediate neighbors. The property is secured by a private gate and fence, and its beautifully landscaped grounds are adorned with various fruit-bearing trees, including coconut, mango, papaya, and the exotic super fruit (Noni).
The main house of Villa Lucaya is a testament to comfort and convenience. Spanning two stories, it features a large terrace on each floor, offering panoramic views of the waterway, the inground pool, and the lush landscaping. The first floor houses a spacious bedroom with an En suite bathroom, a large living room with a powder room, and a full kitchen. The second floor boasts two master suites, a living room, a laundry, and another full kitchen. Each floor has its own exterior door, ensuring privacy, and is equipped with independent air conditioning and controls.
The pool-house area of Villa Lucaya is a haven for relaxation and entertainment. It features an outdoor grill, a sparkling inground pool with a heated jacuzzi, and a 65 " Television. For those who enjoy games, there's an electric dart board, a bar with a mini kitchen, and a variety of games, including corn hole, Jenga, and ring toss. The patio also includes a covered ceramic BBQ shack and an outdoor shower.
The dock/sea wall offers unparalleled frontage and can accommodate boats up to 80’ with dedicated shore power and totals over 300' of water frontage. There is also a large fish cleaning station with a wash-down nearby. The water surrounding the property is crystal clear and allows for fishing, swimming, snorkeling, and numerous opportunities to view tropical fish and sea turtles.
In addition to all of the above amenities, the villa is a 3-minute drive to Barbary Beach, which boasts some of the cleanest and warmest waters in the world. Barbary is arguably the most beautiful beach on the island. However, there are many public beaches to be explored throughout your stay. One of our favorite restaurants, Banana Bay, is in close proximity and can be accessed by land or sea. This restaurant is situated on crystal clear Fortune Beach, which consists of miles of white sandy beach and stunning views. Villa Lucaya is approximately 15 minutes from the airport, grocery stores, restaurants, Port Lucaya, and other essentials. We are situated in a quiet, somewhat remote location a few ways out of town. However, the drive is quick and easy, with minimal traffic. Therefore, we recommend stopping at one of the local grocery stores on the way because you may not want to leave once you arrive!
Last but not least, Villa Lucaya offers concierge service to our guests including food/alcohol delivery, fishing charters (deep sea, bone fishing, lobstering, etc), on site massages, private chef services including “cook your catch” (on or offsite) as well as, jet ski, 4 wheeling tours, etc.
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 4 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find free WiFi and a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a private pool, a washing machine, and a coffee maker.

We had a great experience at this property, everything is very clean and well maintained and Lisa (the host) was very helpful and quick with responding to any questions or suggestions we had. The kids had a great time between boating, the awesome pool & hot tub and fishing right off the dock at this property - 10/10 would recommend and book again!

The owner/host of property, Lisa, was phenomenal. She was extremely timely in responding to our questions and very informative and helpful to surrounding attractions and recommendations for fishing, dining, and entertainment. The pool house/area was definitely our favorite part of the stay for us! The host made sure to cover all the bases on entertaining clients!

Beautiful decorations . 2 full kitchens. Plenty of room to hang out. Then the pool the jacuzzi the bar . Plenty of activities by the bar and TV . Great place to all hang out and cool off in the pool . Property is all fenced in which made it great for our doodle to explore. The hosts Lisa and Dave were great and helped with anything we needed.

AMAZING PROPERTY!
There’s literally no reason to go anywhere else… This place has everything you need. Basically 2 houses in one, one upstairs and one downstairs which actually worked out great for our group, giving us privacy when needed. The amenities will have you never wanting to leave… the pool, hot tub, all the games (darts, ring toss, axe throwing), the grilling area. It’s like its own little oasis. Great fishing right outside the channel and even found a great little beach to drive up to on the boat right at the channel. Hoping to make it back one day!

Our stay was amazing! The hosts were very accommodating for our crew which changed at the last minute due to flight cancellations. They were easy to communicate with and responded promptly. We had everything we needed at the house and plenty of room for all of us. Check in was simple and straightforward and the house (and entire property) was clean and well maintained! The kids enjoyed the pool and the games in the pool house! We will definitely be back!

Amazing Vacation
Villia Lucaya was absolutely AMAZING! From check-in to checkout, Lisa was there with all questions and request. We took our 34’ boat and had plenty of room for at least two more boats. We snorkeled in the canal, watched the sea turtles all day and loved the pool and game room when we weren’t on the boat. We stayed almost two weeks and plan to stay longer next time.

My husband and friend took the sons (ages 18-22) on their dream fishing trip. This place is paradise and just added to the experience. They said it was perfect in every way. They also promised to take the girls back real soon. I can’t wait. The pictures they sent back are amazing.

We had the BEST stay at this house. The house and property is exactly like it’s pictured and more. Plenty of room for 3 families. The pool area is better than a resort and the docking was amazing. Super close to the inlet. Lisa went above and beyond as a host. Will absolutely be back to this heavenly place.

Paradise
My wife and I, along with 2 other couples, decided to stay here. We couldn't have been happier. Honestly it was better than we expected. We loved being away from the hustle and bustle. We loved being on the water with easy access to some of the best beaches and water in the Bahamas, via the waterway. We loved the privacy, there is nobody to bother you. The house itself comes with everything you would need plus quite a few extras. If you are coming over via your own boat and want an alternative to a marina situation, this is for you. Has everything you'd want. The boat can be secure along the frontage. We didn't bring our boat but were able to find a rental in Grand Bahama Yacht Club, little center console, we rented it for 4 nights and kept it right at the property with us. When we wanted lunch, we cruised the boat over to somewhere on the water. When we wanted to go a beach or sandbar or explore, hopped in the boat and took off. We caught fish right off the dock. It was an incredible experience. Sitting in the pool, looking out at the water, with the Bahamas breeze blowing in your face. Take me back! Also, Lisa and Dave couldn't have been more helpful or willing to ensure we had a good time. They were available to answer questions, suggestions, etc. Wonderful communication. Book it!

Bahamas Bliss!
This place is amazing! We crossed from Stuart Florida on our boat and were greeted with a vacation paradise. All the amenities for a boat, protected cove, power and water at the dock. The grounds are expertly maintained and you feel like you are in your own private tropical compound. The pool was great and all the activities at the tiki bar left for wanting nothing. We love the house, all the space, two abundantly stocked kitchens, every utensil you need. Well appointed bathrooms, you name it. This place has it all. We loved the seclusion and enjoyed the Lucayan waterway canal. We even caught a shark while fishing. We will be back! Can’t wait for the end of the month for round two! Wonderful hosts were helpful for any little detail. Cheers!

Better than we could have imagined!!
We booked our stay for a few days with friends of ours and we could not have booked a better place! The weather was perfect during our stay so we spent a ton of time by the pool and cabana overlooking the waterway. The home is perfectly secluded yet only a short drive to the beach bars, restaurants, and the grocery store. The dock is set-up with a wash down and large cleaning table, which made it perfect to dock our boat. There are several beaches, restaurants, excursions, and other activities/places to visit. Our 3-day stay was certainly not enough, we will be back soon!
