Overview & Photos

See Sea House, completed in December, 2018, sits on the grounds of the beachfront boutique resort La Bougainvillea. It comes with full access to the resort’s amenities including an excellent restaurant and bar and a world-class pink-sand beach. Guests at See Sea enjoy the privacy of a private home but with resort amenities including access to room service, housekeeping, in-suite massage, concierge service, and more, all available for an extra charge.

The first floor of See Sea consists of a great room looking out on a private patio and a private pool. The luxurious fully equipped kitchen features stainless steel appliances and quartz counter tops. The large living and dining areas flow out to a private wrap around patio with both shaded and open areas and a stunning in-ground pool.

Upstairs, See Sea has two king bedroom suites, each with an enormous private deck and a luxuriously appointed full bath. One suite has an ocean view and the other a garden view.

La Bougainvillea is situated on Poponi Beach, a mile-long stretch of pink sand and turquoise water protected by a barrier reef. This beach is ideal for swimming, snorkeling, and long walks.

Amenities include air conditioning throughout, WIFI, charcoal grill, backup generator and cable TV. Amenities available but not included are room service, housekeeping, and in-room massage.

The town of Governors Harbour, the main town on the island, is less than 10 minutes by car from the property. Governors Harbour has grocery stores, restaurants, liquor stores, two banks with ATMs, a bakery, gift shops, a dive shop, and a medical clinic. It has a nice little collection of 19th century homes and churches overlooking a picturesque harbor. You can buy fresh fish and lobster every afternoon from fisherman at the town dock. Friday night Fish Fry in Governors Harbour is a street/beach party that brings together all the tourists and locals with food, drink, and dancing in the street. You won’t want to miss it. The international airport is 15 minutes away.

Upscale restaurants in the area include La Bougainvillea (international cuisine), which is on the property, Tippy’s (international and fusion), The Buccaneer (Bahamian cuisine with Caribbean-Chinese fusion), 1648 Restaurant (Bahamian cuisine inspired by European influences), Bacchus Fine Foods (gourmet restaurant and food store), and Pascal’s at Sky Beach Club (International cuisine with Bahamian influences). The above all have live music one or more nights a week, so there is live entertainment somewhere nearby almost every night. The Governors Harbour area also has numerous little takeouts and restaurants offering local cuisine, including Da Perk (coffee shop and sandwiches), Mate and Jenny’s (pizza and Bahamian), the Sunset Inn (local cuisine), and LeoRose Sunset Beach Bar and Grill (local cuisine, drinks, live music).
