Amazing stay - 3 couples
Just finished a great stay at Family Tides with my wife and 2 other couples. Hope Town is a beautiful Marina town and very comfortable place to spend the week. If you’re not comfortable driving your own boat, definitely get set up with a guide to take you out on the water a few of the days during your stay. That’s what makes The Abacos so remarkable. For those that are, Island Marine is the go to place to rent a nice center console boat to get you around. We rented their 23ft Albury and had more than enough room for all 6 of us. They are always so accommodating and very reasonably priced. As other reviews stated, it’s a golf cart community, so definitely rent one from one of the local shops in Hope Town. We were able to get a 6-person cart. Definitely hit up On Da Beach, Firefly for a sunset cocktail, and our best meal was lunch at The Abaco Inn. Now onto the house. The owner was super responsive and continually checked in with us throughout the stay. It is exactly how it is pictured and we loved being somewhat isolated on our own side of the Marina. Very clean and comfortable accommodations. We could have easily fit another couple in there with us as well. Also… if you strike out on hunting for lobster (like we did) ask someone local to give you Gypsy Seafoods number. Just a local guy with fresh catches for the day. We picked up lobster tails and grouper to cook at the house. Amazing stay!

Great Stay in Elbow Cay
The house was great for our group (4 couples) with a nice front porch and view of the harbor. Also, the house was very clean. The owner was extremely quick with answering any questions we had. I would note that the house is only accessible by boat which was not an issue as we also rented a boat. Also, there are shuttles that will pick you up for meals at the local restaurants.

Welcome 2024
Family Tides was a great place to stay for our 6 night 8 person vacation. The views of the Harbor and Lighthouse were unmatched. Truly enjoyed being on a peninsula. John, the host, provided excellent recommendations for food, restaurants, taxi services and “must do’s” during our stay. Would definitely stay at Family Tides again.

Great private house
This house was fabulous! The location is beautiful, right across from Hopetown Inn, with a view from the screened porch of the lighthouse and all of the moored sailboats. The dock is great, and has plenty of deep water for boat access. You must have your own boat to come and go from this property, which isn’t really a problem because most guests to the Abacos rent boats to travel around, but it’s important to note. It made our stay super fun and felt like we had our own secluded island. Our guests who arrived after the first day took the Albury ferry across, and the ferry dropped them off right at the family tides dock – it was perfect! The kitchen has a VHF radio in it, so one night we called on channel 16 across to the Hopetown Inn restaurant and asked for their water taxi to come across and pick us up to go there for dinner. They came right over and picked all eight of us up and we had a wonderful dinner, and then they brought us back to the dock. If you want to go into Hopetown to Captain Jack’s, or the shops and small grocery store, there is a public dock to park your boat and walk easily, or, of course, a dock right at Captain Jack’s. For any other logistics or questions, John, or Charlie, the caretaker, are quick to help. The four king size beds are extremely comfortable, and the four couples we had there each had plenty of room and their own bathroom. Thank you John for the wonderful stay!

Why they chose this property

This home was built not as a vacation home but as a home to be used by the family and so everything has been done in a high quality. As such, you will not feel that the home has been put together without thought and care...... it may be just a "rental" to some but to the family, it is a part of our hearts.

The view of the famous Hope Town lighthouse right out the front door is priceless and makes for a great morning coffee or evening cocktail view.

What makes this property unique

The only access to the house is by boat even though the land is all connected, there are no paths to walk to or drive to the main settlement.....this is actually one of the features that many of our guests love about this property because it really creates that "private island" feeling, and yet you are only a 2 minute boat ride away from the settlement where you can find restaurants and stores.
