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.
