Private Oceanfront Home on the Bay of Great Guana Cay - Spectacular Views!
Frost-Free was designed by Architect Tom Frost as his family retreat in the Bahamas - and it is now open to share with you. Set on the quiet bay side of Great Guana Cay, Frost-Free boasts 150' of craggy shore frontage with a 44' dock that takes you to the perfect location for swimming, kayaking, floating, and gorgeous sunsets. Watch colorful fish and rays swimming underneath the dock, and listen to the shore birds flying overhead. The large front porch is the ideal place for afternoon sips and watching boats coming and going from Guana's harbor. A dining porch allows for perfect sunset views while enjoying the last meal of the day. Frost-Free has a first floor primary bedroom complete with full bathroom, built in dresser storage and ample closet space. The second floor opens to a large loft-style bedroom with a queen bed and two twin beds, lots of shelf and hanging storage and a half bath. Upstairs guests can use the primary bathroom on the first floor, or the outdoor shower for washing. We use the outdoor shower almost exclusively because Frost-Free is very private and the air in the Bahamas is warm and wonderful. The Snore Box is a very sweet guest cottage near the house, complete with a queen bed, closet, and full bathroom. It is a private little oasis; sounds of the ocean waft through the windows with the ocean breeze. All of the spaces in Frost-Free have air conditioning and heat and are meant for year-round use. Furnishings are comfy and casual, and the house is complete with everything you'll need to enjoy your stay: washer/dryer, fully equipped kitchen, bed linens and bath and beach towels, books and games, wireless internet, tv for streaming. Including the use of the Snore Box, Frost-Free is comfortable for up to 6 adults, or 4 adults and 2 children. More bodies than that will feel crowded, so we've limited the occupancy as such. Great Guana Cay is a small island and all it has to offer is only minutes away from Frost-Free: long sandy beaches, Nippers and Grabbers oceanside bars and restaurants, Guana Harbor, boat/paddleboard/snorkeling/diving rentals, fishing and island sight-seeing tours, and more. As with all of the islands in the Abacos, Great Guana Cay was hit hard by hurricane Dorian in 2019. Frost-Free has undergone a full renovation and repair with the exception of our storage shed which sits between the Snore Box and the dock. The storage shed may or may not be repaired by the time of your visit, but in either case it will not at all detract from your visit! Great Guana Cay suffers from periodic power outages since hurricane Dorian; an issue the power company is working to rectify. At Frost-Free, we have a whole-house, automatic generator that will switch on if the power goes out or is low in strength. You should have no issues with power at Frost Free. At Frost-Free, we have a 44' long deep-water dock. There are dolphins for tying your boat, with approximately 16' between dock and dolphins, and a 6' draft. Many large boats anchor in front of our house as waters there are calmer than other parts of the island. As a guest of Frost-Free, you are welcome to "park" your boat at our dock. Our house manager is on the island and just a phone call away in case of any issues. She will also provide extra services at an additional fee, if you desire: laundry, extra cleaning during your stay, shopping for groceries to be ready at the house upon arrival.

Kate was an awesome host and Becky and Brandon did a fantastic job managing the property. They were warm, welcoming and extremely responsive. The home had the space, the views, the comfort and all of the amenities we needed during our stay. This is definitely at the top of our list for a return trip!! It was a great place to accommodate a large group of us. Highly recommended.

Great views excellent property manager
The house is at a great location overlooking the bay, a little to the west of the entrance to Grabbers. Becky was there to greet us for check in and help with our golf cart pick up and boat dockage. The house is well appointed and Becky does a great job keeping it clean. Lots of little extras to make you feel welcome. We used the charcoal grill a couple of times and cooked in the kitchen as there was everything that we needed available. Both Kate and Becky were very responsive with any of our concerns. The extra cottage was nice for my parents to stay in so we all had our own space. The only issue we had was attempting to dock our 29ft boat as the conditions were not suitable during any point of our stay. There is plenty of water at low tide so it wouldn't have been a problem with our boat drafting 4ft but the waves/wind made it so it would have been unsafe to do so. I would recommend securing dockage at Orchid Bay as a backup.
Great house, location overlooking anchorage was amazing. House extremely clean and comfortable.

perfect view
The house was perfect for our group. Four adult kids upstairs, one couple in the master, and one couple in the snore box. We had a few small hiccups with power and water pump but were quickly remedied by Becky and her crew that just required some breakers to be switched on. They also helped us with everything from private beach for a engagement as well as places to eat and get things we needed. Very responsive and on top of everything. A/C was ice cold and the house was in great shape. We started every day on the back porch and ended it on the back porch. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a good relaxing location!!

Beautiful home with an amazing view! Only suggestion for boaters is to maybe rent a slip from the marina just a short golf cart ride away as a backup plan. If the wind is blowing hard, it can get pretty rough making it difficult to tie up, but by no means I would I let that deter you from this place.

Special Place, Special Home
Frost Free is a gem. With a deep water cove and dock as its backyard this is the perfect property to vacation for anyone seeking an adventure travel style experience. Inside is appropriately furnished with a quaint bahemiam elegance and comfortable beds,plenty of hot water and AC that cranks when you need it. We rented a boat and golf cart from nearby Dive Guana and each day set off for fishing, snorkeling, beaching, and exploring the different islands around the Ábacos. If you are reading this review, then you likely know the Ábacos is a special place. If you are bringing the family with you, then this is the perfect property to sit on the back porch each morning with coffee then launch a Bahamas adventure.

Great Family Vacation- Exactly as advertised
Family of 5 stayed for a week. Becky communicated well and helped us get checked in. Island and weather were beautiful. Rented cart and a boat from Troy at Dive Guana. He is a very helpful resource on island as well. Snorkeled, swam, beached and island hopped the whole week.

Beautiful Ocean View With Dock
The view of the ocean from the back porch was amazing, and we loved the convenience of the dock with our boat. Our host was very quick to respond and helpful planning the details of our trip. We really enjoyed our stay!

Awesome
House was perfect and dock with water and electric. Restaurants nearby by boat or golf cart. Grocery store and liquor store nearby. Fishing was good and the reef at Foul Cay was amazing. We will definitely come back.
We came by boat (27 Foot Everglades) from West Palm Beach.
Beautiful house, well kept and clean. Easy check in and out. The pictures don’t do it justice. I’d go back in a heartbeat.

Beautiful quiet oasis
Frost Free was the perfect respite in great guana cay. Our communication leading up to the stay was very clear and we accessed the house easily when we landed. The house itself felt like we were stepping into a memory box- it was thoughtfully-appointed with a mix of antique and new decor and had been beautifully restored since Dorian.
The house was clean and contained everything we needed to enjoy our stay and take advantage of the island, including beach bags and toys, AC, board games, lawn chairs, and directions to local restaurants. We will definitely be back and are grateful for all the owners and manager of frost free did to make our stay seamless and lovely!
