    The Great Escape is a fabulous three bedroom beach house, in a private setting in the heart of Hope Town. Minutes from the ferry dock and public dock where boats can be moored (Lower Dock). Steps from the glorious Atlantic Beach which runs all along the back of Hope Town and up to the North End. Moments from all grocery stores, restaurants, art galleries and shops in Hope Town. Buy your fresh bread at Vernon's, your take-away lobster dinner from Munchies and get your coffee from the Coffee House - all on the same block as the Great Escape.

    Open and light inside, with sea breezes and the sounds of ocean waves flowing through the house. A/C and ceiling fans for the warm summers. Large outdoor decking for daytime relaxing on outside sofas, chairs and hammocks. Upper decking with unrivalled views to the candy stripped light-house, perfe...     Read more

    “Perfect Location Beautiful House ”
    Reviewed 11 October 2016 for a stay in June 2016

    The great escape is a beautiful home. We visited with my two children and mother. The home has stairs to enter and a flight of stairs to reach the top two bedrooms, including the master. We were allowed to chose the two rooms we wanted to rent and the third was locked. There are no ramps, so if you are...

The house is perfectly located in Hope Town, only a few minutes walk from a wonderful coffee shop, grocery stores, water front restaurants, bars, and the beaches. We hired bikes for the duration of our visit, and it was a...

The owner pointed us to lovely spots around the island for dining, cocktails, coffee and enjoying the...
