Absolute paradise
We spent 7 days at the Kiki house and absolutely loved our stay! The home was perfect for me and my husband and our two teenage daughters. Plenty of space, and I really appreciated having a washer/dryer, so that we didn’t have to pack as much clothing. We spent time on back deck/patio every day… gorgeous view of the water! The location was fantastic. We love to snorkel and the fact that we had a pristine beach with incredible reefs only steps from our back door was amazing!! Things we saw in the water off our beach: nurse sharks, spotted eagle rays, a sea turtle, and hundreds upon hundreds of different types of fish. It was an incredible experience. ❤️

Remote Paradise
Cat Island and the Kiki House were exactly as we had imagined - remote, peaceful and simply beautiful. The house itself was well appointed with all of the amenities we needed, particularly WiFi as work and emails never take holidays! The beds were very comfortable and the porch was perfect for morning yoga, afternoon emails with a view and evening relaxation. We recommend renting a car but also recommend negotiating the rates in advance. There is a bank on the island should you need extra cash, several grocery stores and a few charming bakeries and eateries. Da Pink Chicken is a waterfront eatery within a short walk of the house and serves home-cooked meals on the weekends. The wind prohibited us from snorkeling or kayaking as much as we had hoped, but we did visit some calmer beaches on the island. Our only complaint is that we didn't stay a few days longer! We flew Western Air with a connection in Nassau - our Western Air return flight to Nassau was delayed and we were concerned about missing our connection, but the pilot radioed our connection who informed the ticketing agent. They waited for us and let us make our connection comfortably - yet another example of the wonderful Bahamian hospitality at work! Overall, if you're looking for a break from the hectic pace of life and to experience some remote island living, Cat Island is the place and the beautiful Kiki House gives the perfect amount of comfort to enjoy it.

Everything about the trip was perfect. Had everything we needed in the house. Very isolated beach, very private. Nikki was excellent in helping get around and give suggestions on the stay. Cat Island is truly a special place, and the Kiki House was an excellent home base for experiencing the island.

The ideal location with a spectacular home on a private beach. Kiki house is maintained to a standard that is rare for any island home. The owner is a pleasure to deal with and adds a personal touch - we felt like family. Cat Island is a throwback to an earlier time - truly the best of all worlds.

The house was just as described/shown. Beautiful, clean and well stocked. Nancy and Nikki were both great, very helpful and accommodating. Beach was peaceful and snorkeling was amazing! We cooked most nights and watched the amazing star show above the waves. Wondered over to the Pink Chicken a couple of times and delicious cracked conch, cold beers and fun conversation with Dean. Our trip was wonderful and we can't wait to go back!

Great house. Great location. Fully equipped plus the owner and caretaker arranged that fresh fruit, vegetables, and fish were delivered to the house. We didn’t want for anything. The house is located on a very nice, private beach great snorkeling and fishing. We highly recommend this property and hope to return ourselves.

So Peaceful and Beautiful
The property was exactly as advertised. Located on a secluded beach with soft sand that never gets hot, beautiful water with every shade of blue, easy swimming and snorkeling just out front of the house, no neighbors, it was so quiet and the views are amazing. The layout of the house was perfect with three bedrooms and two baths. There were four in our party, so plenty of room. The porch is great, shade all day and amazing views, and did I mention how quiet it is!! Nancy was great to communicate with prior to the trip and answered all of our questions. Nikki met us at the airport, took us to get the rental cars, groceries and water, and then led us to the home and explained things well. We didn't need her the rest of the week, but she did check in multiple times via WhatsApp to make sure we were OK. Now, some realities of Cat Island. It is secluded, no big stores, no shopping for anything outside of the necessities for the week. Restaurants, or eating places sometimes have food, and sometimes they don't. Lunch pricing was most reasonable, so we ate out at lunch and fixed dinner at the house. Like it says, best to call ahead to see if they are open and serving food. Prices are high for any island in the Bahamas, just plan on it. There's only one main road that's paved, many others are dirt with large potholes. No issues getting around, but best to rent a CRV or something similar. All of those things were great for us, that's exactly what we wanted and none were a surprise. The only real downside of the week for us were the no-see-ums. If you haven't had experience with them, they are not pleasant. Bug spray did not work for us, and the bites did itch. We tried the suggestion from the Cat Island locals and used Baby Oil - it helped, but we mostly stayed in the house when it got calm around sunset and played games, puzzles, or watched a movie on Netflix. The power did go out twice, and cell service/wifi once during the week. Again, just a reality of the Bahamas. So, amazing experienced - thanks Bob and Nancy for sharing your home with us.

Loved the location!
Wow! We so enjoyed this trip. It's the kind of trip we have been looking for, for years, very private, never saw anyone on the beach. We didn't rent a car, but biked into Aj's convenience store, and da pink chicken, plus Nikki is amazing, and took us on a tour of the island. Loved the relaxed trip so much. Would love to come back and bring our family. Thanks again for sharing!!

Anniversary Trip
We have rented many houses over the years and we can honestly say this was the best experience we have had. Nancy is the best host, Nikki is very responsive whenever needed and the house....let's just say the pictures don't do the house justice. The master bedroom has the best view in the house, looking right at the ocean from the bed! We never seen another person on the beach so we definitely felt like we had our own private beach during our stay. Come to think of it, out of all the beaches we ventured to throughout the island, we never ran into anyone else on the same beach! This is our favorite part of Cat Island! We were hoping to catch a lobster or two but did not have any luck. We pulled 4 large conch from the ocean right in front of the house. While the ocean wasn't the calmest during our week long stay, we were able to snorkel multiple times and see an array of sea life right out the back door on the coral reefs. We ventured through the mangroves close to the house and ran into an amazing amount of bonefish! Too bad this was our first trip to the islands where we left the fly rod at home :( Da Pink Chicken is open and within walking distance of the house. Patty makes the best fresh cracked conch around. The house is also equipped with anything you will need to cook your own meals as well. I can honestly say, we never needed anything we couldn't find at the house. We would definitely rent from Nancy again in the future and we would feel confident about recommending to others to do the same. Thank you again for sharing your little piece of paradise with us and making this wedding anniversary one that will be hard to top!

Perfect Vacation Spot!
Kiki House is an amazing vacation spot. The views are incredible! We loved having our own private beach and our own private reef to snorkel on! If you want a non-touristy beach vacation - this is your place. The house is extremely clean, comfortable, and has everything you need. Nikki (the house manager) was wonderful and helped us with whatever we needed. I definitely recommend hiring her to cook a traditional meal for you while you are there. Cat Island is amazing also! You can do as much or as little as you would like. There is lots to see and do, or you can just relax on the beach. The locals are friendly and helpful- and interacting with them was one of the highlights of our trip! We had a great snorkeling trip through Greenwood Resort (Antoine and Pauline are great), visited the Hermitage (beautiful views), frequented da Pink Chicken ( a definite must) where Patty taught us to clean a conch and then made the most delicious salad out of it. The owners of the house were also great- though I haven't met them in person -communication before, during, and after was easy and fast! We definitely hope to visit again!

Perfect and relaxing
The whole reason I picked this location is so that my husband could unwind and get away from all the stress he is under. It was the absolute best place I could have picked for him to do just that. This home far exceeded what I had hoped for. Beautiful view, private, and all the amenities you could ask for. We spent all of our time on the beach and not another soul in sight the entire week. Nikki, who takes care of the home, picked us up from the airport, took us on an island tour, cooked us a delicious Bahaman meal, and delivered us back to the airport, was the best! If you are looking for R&R with a spectacular view, this is your place!

Tranquility peaceful and super great snorkeling !!
March 5 - 13, 2019 ... Had a super great experience at Bob and Nancy's beach place on Cat Island, the "Kiki House" ..The views are spectacular..the home is great .. and we loved the snorkeling directly in front of the home. If you like snorkeling then this is the place for you.. First day..."Nikki" was waiting for us at the home to show us around .. That's what I call a responsible owner who cares about their home and the renters experience. The owners were in the US but their crew of service people on the 1600 person island was outstanding .. All parts of the home were outstanding including the kitchen , Tv's with Netflix and Amazon Prime, Believe me, I went to one VRBO in Exuma that was the complete opposite of this..and of course at that time I brought 2 other couples..it was an owner who did not have a clue of hospitality. I have been snorkeling since I was 6 years old .. We have gone to Bonaire, Cayman Brac, Exuma, Hawaii, Long Island Bahamas, Abaco, St Johns, Tortola etc....for the convenience alone, Kiki House surpasses them all.. imagine, cleaning the glass of your mask with baby shampoo inside and out --the best antifog ( I love giving tips) and walking 30 seconds and hitting the water ...then swim out 50 yards and start looking for coral reefs. Spotted Eagle Rays, Turtles, Barracuda, Lobster are all part of the experience. In fact it was my first time I got a 6 pound lobster in the Carribean..Sooooo delicious ... The next to last day of our visit I could easily have got 2 more lobsters--let some other people enjoy. Our last night of the trip, we did a night snorkel...Go out at dusk and bring some underwater lights ...what an adventure..we woke up a sea turtle and swam with a spotted eagle ray..and the beauty is you pop up your head and can see Kiki house with the lights on ..
