First Timers and Already Missing It.....
First off, we read the reviews about Aaron, and they are all true. He was very helpful. when we first arrived, we were a little intimidated, as it was our very first trip to the Bahamas, and everything always had its way of working out. The house was just as we had envisioned, and contains just about any amenity necessary for your stay. Cooking utensils, towels, washer/dryer, and even spices for meal prep. The water side of the house is like a dream. Aaron is your knowledge station for any question you may have. We tried to not bother him too much, as we know he has a life down there, and we loved running into him in town. But he was always looking to help, and super nice guy. Communication is the only real issue we ran into because the service is hit or miss, and messages would get around in a delayed manner, but we always seemed to work out our situations. A golf cart is a must, as the house is a little far from town to walk, so MAKE SURE that it is communicated that you get yours though the rental company. You can't just click and get a cart. They will email you a quote, and (for us) there may be some back and forth before the cart is official... This is where the communication problem came in for us. All in all, our stay was amazing, and we already miss it so much!!!

AMAZING property!!
This property is amazing!! We booked one week (husband, two boys, 5 and 2, and myself) because of the beautiful beach area included.. and enjoyed it so much that we ended up extending our stay another week! The bay area is beautiful and perfect for exploring on kayaks which are provided. Our small boys had a blast swimming and exploring the sand bar at low tide, searching for seashells and hermit crabs, and building sandcastles on our own private beach! I really just can’t say enough about the outside area. It is a dream vacation property! The house is very comfortable and clean as well. The beds are cozy, the living area was perfect for our small family, and the kitchen had everything we needed. On top of all this, communication was excellent! The couple of things we did need, were delivered to us quickly. Aaron, the property manager, was such a help! He is very kind and informative. He helped us find a golf cart when we thought we wouldn’t because of our late booking, and showed us around the island while we waited for them to get it ready. At one point, we let the cart die by the yacht club.. We called Aaron, who was pulling in jet skis at the time, and he was there in 5 minutes to give us a ride home. The next morning, he had taken it upon himself to tow the cart back to the house to charge. He went above and beyond! Our stay at Driftwood was nothing short of perfect. We will absolutely be booking this property for future visits to our new favorite spot, Staniel Cay!
