Stunningly Beautiful
My wife and our 2 teenage boys had an amazing stay on Staniel Cay at the Harbor Blue Cottage. The house was spacious, clean, and with brand new modern appliances and air conditioning. The view from the deck of small bay off Pirates Beach was stunningly beautiful. There's a small path down to the beach itself which is semi-private and delightful. Many of the previous guests in the sign in book had been there before, and we can see why. It will be hard to go anywhere else in the Carribean after this!

Amazing cottage & Lovely hosts!
This is an amazing cottage with unbelievable views and access (via private path) to a beautiful beach. The hosts are gracious, thoughtful, and accommodating. You couldn't ask for a better setting on Staniel Cay. You will need to rent a golf cart to enjoy this location and to get around--which was so much fun and a part of the charm of Staniel Cay! Our family greatly enjoyed our stay!

Sunsets, Beach, Privacy, Water-front Porch, and Ample Space
Very nice two bedroom, two bath, full kitchen home, with full wrap-around porch, the back side right on the waterfront, steps away from Pirate's Beach, usually with no one there but you and yours. Could not be more happy with the host, caretaker, property, appliances (even a washer/dryer), and support. Property owner can reserve a golf cart for your stay if you wish. Will certainly ask to stay there again.

Spectacular!
If I could give 10 stars I would. The house was clean, well equipped and has one of the best views on the island. We saw sharks and turtles swim right by the deck, found sand dollars in the bay and saw lots of fish while snorkling the rock banks. Sophia and Don were wonderful! They made sure we were all set up and taken care of, even messenging one evening to let us know of a communication outage on the island. We definitely recommend renting the golf cart with the house; it was also very well kept and the perfect island transportation. We will be back to Staniel Cay and Harbour Blue is the only place we want to stay!

Perfect location, perfect hosts!
Don and Sophia are amazing hosts! Sophia was quick to answer all my questions leading up to the trip and once arriving Don was at the airport to pick us up. We saw him throughout the week and always so friendly and informative! This house location is the BEST! We had our own beach (Pirates) right next door with snorkeling in front of the house. I have nothing but good things to say. We will definitely return.

Our stay couldn't have been better. Don was wonderful. Met us and helped us get our luggage to the house as well as coordinated getting us a golfcart for our stay. The beds are AMAZING and the house location can't be beat. It has direct access to the best beach and snorkel spot with tons of sand dollars and fun for the kiddos. They provided everything we needed and the washer and dryer was a wonderful perk coming off a week on the water. Highly recommend it! We will be back for sure!

A special Spot
All facets of our stay were stellar. Sohpia and Don were always available and helpful to answer questions and/or help while staying at Harbor Blue. The cottage is an oasis on the Cay. Spectacular views of both sky and waters. Make sure you spend time on the deck in the morning watching the life underwater right under your feet. Can't say enough good things about our experience.
