Single Story Beachfront House with Deck Overlooking Bay

Amberjack House is located right on the Northside Beach in Spanish Wells, Bahamas. If you are not familiar with the Northside Beach, it is one of the most beautiful, quiet, serene stretches of shoreline in the world. It's a sleepy beach with no crowds, white sand, and crystal clear water.

The house has three bedrooms and two baths, is 2100 square ft, and sleeps eight comfortably. The master bedroom, living room, and dining room each have a set of french doors that open up to a large deck that overlooks the beach.

This home features wide open living spaces, vaulted ceilings, wall to wall tile floors throughout, a modern, state-of-the-art kitchen, and very nice, yet comfortable furnishings. It is fully air conditioned. The kitchen is well equipped with plenty of cookware and dishes for a crowd. There are four flatscreen TV's and several DVD players, one in the living room and one in each bedroom. The house was built in 2008, which is very new for Spanish Wells. There is also free wifi with signal boosters so that you can get a wifi signal throughout the house and on the outside deck.

In 2016, we added a new boardwalk and beach deck from the house deck that extends directly to the edge of the beach. It's perfect for coffee in the morning, watching the kids play on the beach in the afternoon, and cocktails in the evening. It's really nice for when you want to hang out on the beach but don't feel like trekking all your stuff out into the sand. You just stroll down the boardwalk and kick back on one of our Adirondack chairs.

In 2019, we added a new beach wall at the end of our yard just beyond the boardwalk. Many of the beach houses on Spanish Wells have a beach wall. It has a convenient set of stairs for easily accessing the beach and there is now a nice, private sunbathing area above the wall.

We also provide two kayaks.

What sets our house apart from other beach house rentals on Spanish Wells? The open floor plan, large covered deck, and the boardwalk to our beach side deck. The large rooms and open floor plan are unique for the island. Most of the beach fronts are older homes with tiny rooms. And very few of the newer homes have an open living room / dining room / kitchen area that opens up to a large, shaded beach deck. And the house is the only rental home that we know of on Spanish Wells that has a boardwalk that extends down to a beach side deck.

The house is located on 11th St right on the beach on the north side of the island. Note that there is a cemetery on Main Street from 10th to 11th. The cemetery is behind the house opposite the beach. It's a very pretty, very old little cemetary. It's quiet and provides extra privacy for the house. The landscaping behind our house hides it completely from view.

To get to Spanish Wells from the US, you want to fly to the North Eleuthera airport (ELH). There are direct flights from Atlanta, Miami, Fort Lauderdale, and Nassau. The house is about 30 minutes from the airport via taxi and water taxi.

To arrange the taxi and water taxi, give Pinder Taxi a call at 242-359-7135 or google 'Pinder Taxi Spanish Wells' to get their contact info. They usually charge $15 per person one way.

They will drop you off right by the golf cart rental company. A four person golf cart usually costs around $250 per week. Google 'Harbourside Rentals Spanish Wells' for their website and to reserve a golf cart.

We have had a lot of people ask about refunds with regards to the Covid-19 pandemic. Now that things are pretty much back to normal, we will not be providing Covid related refunds.

We spend about six weeks per year at Amberjack House. Since we spend so much time there, we've tried to make it as nice and comfortable as possible so that we can really enjoy ourselves while on vacation. Hopefully you will find our beach house as fun and relaxing as we do!

Everything was PERFECT! The tide stayed pretty low, so were able to sit in the water & soak up the sun... One sweet lady that lived on the island set up her floating "lily pad" for us once the tide came in. Renting a golf cart is the way to go... Most of the people that live on the island were nice. Lastly, we got to meet Budda and take a picture with him!

If you are wondering if this is the house you should rent for your Spanish Wells vacation…. STOP wondering! This was our third trip to Spanish Wells and our first time renting the Amberjack House. Hands down the best decision we have ever made. Gorgeous house and spectacular location on the beach made this vacation the best one yet. From the covered palapa to sit under when you need a break from the sun to the huge sandbar literally feet away from the shore at low tide, I’m pretty sure my vocabulary was reduced to “OMG, look at that water”. I know I had to have said it at least 100 times.. a day. Rented a golf cart from Harbor Side rentals and arranged transportation with Pinder’s. The owners were fantastic to work with. Already planning our next visit!

Best beach ever
We had a great stay. We enjoyed the well appointed home. Nice size master and bath. 2 other rooms slept 3 each. Nice deck and BBQ. Best part of the home is the easy access to North Beach. The elevated wood deck path leads you straight to a beautiful gazebo. There are deck chairs to lounge on and have coffee on the mornings while you stare at the amazing beach. We rolled the BBQ out there and grilled right on the sand. Amazing stay! Will return again

Comfortable beachfront on our favorite island
Amberjack house is in a wonderful location. The sea wall and sheltered deck area and ample sea-side covered porch provide perfect spots to enjoy the beautiful views and breezes. There is beach below the wall except at the high tide and huge shallow area for playing or relaxing in the water. Beds are comfy and there is plenty of space.

Fabulous family getaway
We had 3 generations staying in the house and had such a great vacation. Everyone from the grandparents to the grandchildren absolutely loved it. The kids snorkeled for hours on end. Great house and having the dock which led to the gazebo was a bonus. There was always shaded seating throughout the day. Loved it.

We love the Amberjack house! This was our third time at the house, and it was just as wonderful as the first time. The size, location, and amenities are perfect for our family of 7. There is something for everyone whether swimming, kayaking, or simply watching the water. We love the kitchen. It is great for cooking big meals. We’ve already booked for next year! Thanks for a great time!!

Amberjack is better than advertised! The lagoon and sandbar at northside beach was spectacular. We enjoyed alot of what spanish wells has to offer including a boat charter (reef fishing, feeding stingrays, visiting pig island), eating/drinking at several restaurants, and just relaxing at the house and beach. The people on spanish wells are so welcoming. We will be back. Thanks Ryan for sharing your home.

Best spot on the island
My family and I stayed this past week and it was nothing short of perfect. Flying in and using Pinder taxi and renting a golf cart was all set up by Harborside Rentals. Just let them know your arrival flight via email and they set everything up. We also rented snorkel gear for the week and got our monies worth all over the island. The property is the most perfect picturesque spot. So much so that you often see people walk by to take pictures. Anything that was not perfect was taken care of by Andre or someone at harborside straight away. We also rented a charter to snorkel and fish using Underwood Charter. We had captain Theron and he was fantastic. The day we went it was very windy and not ideal for these activities though he knows the islands very well and got us to some great spots. We saw lots of fish and then went out to the swings. We tried to fish and ended up catching our lunch for the next day. Theron cleaned the fish for us and all we had to do is cook and enjoy! They are cash ONLY so be aware of that (many places are cash only on the Island) The house is wonderful and we had a great time unwinding and getting some relaxation. We plan on coming back if fortunate enough to be able to. I cannot recommend this property and the owners any more favorably. Thank you!
