Accommodations & Amenities at Pleasant Bay

Pleasant Bay is comprised of four buildings: the main lodge, two guest villas, and an office. The main lodge contains the kitchen, dining room, living room with satellite TV, and the bar. The larger guest villa has 2 double occupancy rooms and 2 single occupancy rooms with 2 full bathrooms. The smaller guest villa has 1 bedroom (two beds) with a private bath. Each of the bedrooms and the main lodge are air-conditioned. The rooms are clean and comfortable; the lodge as a whole is modern and has daily maid service.

Pleasant Bay Bonefish Lodge is owned and operated by Bahamian Timothy Smith, his wife Orlean, daughters Charlene and Coral, and his brother Lonix. This family is steeped in the tradition of bonefishing and hospitality. Timothy’s father Felix guided over 30 years on the island, passing down his knowledge to his sons. The rest of the family has worked extensively in the hospitality business for years: Orlean was formally a cook at Bair’s Lodge, Charlene has a long list of management credentials at prestigious resorts in Nassau and the US, and Coral has also worked in the hotel business. The Bahamian family-style hospitality is warm, welcoming, and contagious. That coupled with the location and the quality bonefishing guides, makes Pleasant Bay Bonefish Lodge a true gem.

Please note that Pleasant Bay Village is not a tourism destination and there is no shopping or sightseeing unless you are looking for bonefish, barracuda, jacks and snapper! There aren’t a lot of people, and there’s no nightlife, but the views overlooking the water can be breathtaking.
