Love At First Sight Hotel

Andros Barrier Reef

My son and I spent three nights here for fishing, exploring and relaxing. It was not fancy, but it was comfortable and perfectly suited our needs. Sheila was a perfect host and a fantastic cook. She made us feel at home. I have attached a picture of a delicious meal she made for us with a fish my son caught.

Beautiful and comfortable 

Sheila presides over a well appointed and excellently maintained establishment that reflects her generous nature. The rooms are clean and have terrific sunrise views over scenic Stafford Creek. Her cooking is soulful Bahamian and can even accommodate challenges like needing pescatarian and gluten-free. A deck overlooking the creek was our favorite place to eat when the weather was perfect. The pool was sparkling and beckoning but we preferred to swim in nearby Blanket Sound, a five minute walk away.
Can't imagine a more charming, peaceful retreat in the natural wonder of Andros !

Hotel with Heart

This was a charming find! Very relaxing. Sheila, the proprietor, is a gem. I hope to come back soon!

Wonderful trip , highly recomended place would stay here again next year.

Crabfest stay

The team spent 2 nights. The rooms were clean and the beds were comfortable.The creek behind the room was a scenic view that actually served as therapy for me.However, the drapes,pool and yard needs cleaning. It is average. I guess it served the purpose of the trip.

Nice view, many mosquitoes

Andros, what a beautiful place. It's a trip in space and in time. If you are going to visit Andros, you should know that the place is very undeveloped, tiny airport, pothole ridden roads, very hard to find convenience stores, a few pharmacies on the island, and very few people. The official population is 7800 Androsians occupying an area of aroud 2300 square miles, and tons of beach. A trip to Andros is more akin of a camping trip. Go prepared, do not assume buying things there, make sure you have all your medications and bug spray. On the bright side, we had a blast! The people of Andros are phenomenal! The most friendly i have met around the world. You feel so safe and embraced by the locals, that after a few days you feel like you have lived there your whole life. We loved our host at the hotel (love at first sight),Sheila. She was a joy, very welcoming and nice, and a wonderful cook to boot. We just ate what she made and we were delighted at every meal.The island is mostly catering to divers, snorkelers, and fishermen. If you are going for these activities, it is the most wonderful island of the Bahamas. But at night time, you should go back to sheila's have a dinner and relax and get ready for the next day. The hotel is located in a creek, where you can look down from the deck and see a myriad sea life, from barbs, to jacks, to trumpet fish, barracudas, nurse sharks, eagle rays and many others. You can fish off of her deck, just bring your own fishing rod.

Awesome people

We stayed here one night as part of a Bahamas National Trust expedition to Andros. The hotel is basic, but clean and safe - we never bothered to lock our doors. Only 4 rooms have views of Stafford Creek, but they all open up to the pool. We enjoyed a few meals here and the food was always delicious! The shaded porch swings with a nice breeze were a heavenly way to relax.

Basic, but well located

Andros is a rural tropical island which offers an authentic Bahamian vacation.  Love at First Sight is a "gem" on the island. A perfect place to have an "off-the-grid" vacation. Sheila's gracious hospitality is top notch!  She is a fabulous chef and tailors her meals for her guests. From fresh fish, to chicken, pork, a variety of rice delicacies, native vegetables and seasonal fruits, she offers fresh and healthy meals. She maintains her property with great attention to detail and offers spectacular views.  Centrally located on the island, Sheila can connect you to any activity you want.

Authentic Bahamian Vacation

If you are looking for a clean and safe vacation in an authentic Bahamian setting, look no further.  With a setting at the bridge over Stafford Creek the views couldn't be better, looking out to the ocean.  The beach is about a five minute walk away and is totally secluded - saw two boats in two days of swimming and snorkeling.  Be sure to try snorkeling in the creek during high tide or as the tide is going out - parrot fish, sergeant major, gar, barracuda, jack, flounder, bone fish, and many more.

Sheila, the owner is a fantastic cook.

Also of note - one of the guys here caught 16 bone fish today.
