If rising early to bird watch or see the glorious sun while enjoying a freshly brewed cup of coffee, is not your idea of a holiday, then maybe private Little Deadman's Cay, is not for you.
On the other hand, if you enjoy the quietness, the pristine beauty of an unspoiled beach, dazzling blue skies with calm waters, then maybe you should consider this unusual 9 1/2 acre island.
Little Deadman's Cay is a private 9 1/2 acre island with just one beachfront
home. It is a private cay without resident staff since they all live on the
main island (Long Island) within 2 miles away. We thus have complete privacy/seclusion.
Little Deadman's Cay is a historical site. The first settler was a sailor who
shipwrecked and made his way to the cay and built a home there, having married
an Indian woman from the main island. The home is built on the site of the original
dwelling. The island has a main beach and two small beach coves. In addition,
it is within walking distance of an undeveloped peninsula 12 mi long with a
continuous beach. There are three main swimming areas on the private island:
beach side, snorkeling side, and on the western end with two olympic-sized swimming
pools made by natural channels. This is a great fishing area. Flyfishing is
also very popular in this area as one can wade the flats easily. A designated
taxi driver will pick up at airport and return you to airport, also a designated
boatman will ferry guests to the Cay and then back at the end
of their stay.shopping at general store, etc. Telephone numbers of various fisherman
in the area will be provided.
The house has a great room, 2 bedrooms with double beds and one bedroom with
twin/king beds. Indoor complete bathroom with tub, shower, etc and outdoor shower
and additional "john". Kitchen is complete with refrigerator/freezer, stove/oven,
and completely equipped with dishes, pots and pans, and even cloth napkins!
Amenities include fireplace, ceiling and portable fans, two patios with sea
view from either side. Cell phone, VCR, art and craft supplies for guests' use.
Electric pump. Tape/CD deck. Gazebo on beach with lounges. More information,
