Wonderful Home
My husband and I stayed for 5 days during the offseason and Bennett House was a sanctuary of comfort and relaxation. The house is decorated very nicely especially of note to us was the local Bahamian bathmats and the beautiful handmade quilts. We cooked breakfast each morning in the kitchen and I was impressed with the selection of kitchen items there; by far the best of any rental house I’ve been to. The back patio is the best place to read, stargaze, and enjoy the rocking chairs while watching the sunrise. Outside there is a grill and outdoor shower. I also appreciate the water filtration on the countertop. We had bought a few gallons of water but being able to use the filtration saved us from having to buy more.
The icing on the cake was getting to meet and spend time with Ruth who cares for the home. Her warm, friendly spirit welcomed us. She generously took time to personally join us for a cart ride around town to help orient us and point out all the items of note. She made an effort to key us into local landmarks to assist us learning our way around. The next day she found us at Sundowners where we came to watch the sunset. She stayed to chat with us inquiring about our trip and offering her insight and suggestions around the island. As most places (stores and restaurants) were closed for vacation she made sure we knew where we could get dinner each night.
We will be back to Bennett House! It is a lovely place with lovely owners and caretakers.
