Excellent stay!!
House was wonderful. Property manager was fantastic! It includes a wooden swing with probably the most beautiful view of the ocean we saw! Property had everything we needed and more. We even met the owner of the property who was so nice and hospitable!

Wonderful island ! Amazing people
We enjoyed our stay at Duck Out :) The house had everything we needed. The caretaker was fabulous!! Joanne met us at the dock and took us to the home. She explained everything well and was extremely helpful !! We felt the beach access could have been explained a bit better, there is a beach but only when the tide went out, other than that a lovely home. The owner lives onsite, we met her once and she was a nice lady to chat with.

Perfect getaway
Staying at the Duck Out property on Russell Island in Spanish Wells was exactly what we wanted. Quiet, secluded, beautiful, peaceful time for the two of us. We mostly read, sunbathed, and had nice dinners. The house was clean and welcoming. We loved the front & rear decks upstairs. Only one minor inconvenience with the showers, but we kind of expected that being on a remote island. The hot water and water pressure weren’t exactly up to our preferred standards, but it wasn’t a big deal for us. During the week, we found a nice section of beach to use on the other island. The shoreline by the Duck Out house only has a beach during lower tides. However the water by Duck Out is beautiful. I had a stingray swim by me which was cool! My wife found a huge conch shell. Also, we were plenty satisfied with the restaurant choices. I think the Shipyard had the highest quality food, followed closely by Wreckers. Budda’s was a fun place with decent bar food, and the Sandbar was nice for drinks & snacks. We went to each of those places twice I think. Prices are a little high, but what can you do about that? Being on a remote island, I expected prices to be a little high. Groceries were expensive too. We bought breakfast foods, lunch meat and chips so we only had to eat out for dinners. Anyway, had a great stay and we will return to Spanish Wells for sure.

fantasic waterfront paradis
we so enjoyed our stay at duck-out! the house was spacious, comfortable and had everything necessary to cook a meal and to relax after swimming. the back patio has a dining table which is a lovely place to relax. We went to Spanish Wells to enjoy the beautiful island and were more than happy with our stay. They had snorkeling gear and beach towels at the ready and there are many uncrowded beaches to find and enjoy. the duck-out's owner, mrs. d, is lovely and welcoming. she offered the use of the swing that looks out over the water and the use of the backyard. the manager, Joanne, readily answered all our questions and made us feel right at home from the start. Joanne was available for questions about where to go and what to see. highly recommend the Duck Inn and we can't wait to go back.

Wonderful Stay
We truly enjoyed our stay at Duck out. As Nassau locals, we needed somewhere to stay while visiting with family on Russell Island. The house had everything we needed and was on a quiet road. We enjoyed going down to the little beach at low tide in the mornings in our pj's. Mrs. Duckworth was very kind and we realized that she knew our Dad way back in the day!

Would definitely stay here again!

Duck Out is a gem
Duck Out is clean, well equipped and comfortable! The cottage is surrounded by beautiful landscaping, fruit trees and of course - the turquoise waters of the Caribbean. We sat and watched the sea creatures swim by and took several dips there too. It’s nicely situated near Spanish Wells, but tucked away on the more quiet Russell Island. The cottage owner and property manager are lovely people. Great place!

Relaxing and wonderful
Duck Out is even nicer than it looks in the photographs! Being able to walk just a few moments to swim at the private beach or look out from the sturdy swing made the location perfect, and being at the end of the street ensured quiet. Joanne, the property manager, couldn’t have been more helpful, and Kay, the owner of the property who lives next door, was welcoming as well. We loved our stay!

Beautiful and comfortable spot
This is a lovely property in a nice quiet spot on Russell Island. No need to worry that it is a drive to Spanish Wells - it is a quick golf cart drive! Having three comfortably sized bedrooms and gorgeous views from both balconies and front door, we enjoyed every moment. The beds are very comfortable and we all slept well. The time we didn't spend in the water was spent sitting on the bench swing or comfy chairs spotting fish, starfish, turtles and conchs in the indescribably blue water.

Lovely and quiet getaway!
This is a wonderful property just steps from an incredibly beautiful shoreline. We saw turtles and many starfish! The house was perfect for our needs - and very cute! The backyard is full of wonderful plants and papaya trees - you feel like you have transported to the jungle! It’s very quiet and peaceful. The owner and property manager were incredibly welcoming! It was a great stay!

This was the absolute best stay! Duck Out was very relaxing and a comfortable home in every way. Our neighbors make you feel like family and are very helpful with assisting in island navigation.

Duck Out
A great location with a great host. We spent 7 days at the house and have been discussing a return trip. Despite the COVID rules Everything was made easy by just following the instructions the property manager provided. At the airport we met the recommended taxi service who contacted the property manager to notify our arrival timing at the dock. Joanne the PM met us at the dock and gave a great tour of the island while heading to check in. The unit is just as described and the pictures are accurate. We enjoyed the white sand at low tide on the private beach. The hostess “Kay” was incredibly friendly and helpful with suggestions and recommendations. Harbor side rentals was great and accommodating to schedule changes. We even had fresh Avocados from a tree on the property. Highly recommended!
