Architect Max Strang Perfects Island Modernism, Bahamian Style
There's a reason the sounds, sensations and scenery of these islands brings you back to the essentials, and this villa for rent in the Bahamas reminds you that simple design plus serene location always wins. A private slice of paradise with the benefits of a resort, this is the hideaway that let's you drift into island mode with the laid-back Bahamian joie de vivre.
Completed in 2017, the home was designed by AIA-award-winning Miami based architect Max Strang, well known for his environmental modernist designs and tropical landscapes.
Composed of simple clean lines in a breezy white and grey palette with glass and steel accents, the home's "island modern" aesthetic still remains sympathetic and harmonious to the local style and to nature.
Long Island is world-famous for its miles of white sandy beaches and coves, and this relaxed island getaway is a great jumping off point to swim in sea caves and rock pools, or explore shipwrecks and architectural ruins, and join in the fun at the local rum parties and fish fries on the beach.
Perched just above the shore, this villa for rent in the Bahamas was designed by Miami-based architect Max Strang as a relaxed island getaway that allows for complete privacy with all of the trappings of the nearby resort.
The villa's clean, minimalist design reflects a mastery of the island's modern aesthetic with simple airy rooms that open out to nature and the spectacular ocean views.
The main, open-plan living space includes a lounge, dining area, and a fully equipped kitchen and breakfast bar overlooking panoramic views of the Atlantic side of the island.
Simple clapboard interiors are whitewashed in breezy island style with a vintage modern aesthetic that keeps things chill.
Featuring a total of four bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, the two master suites are on the top floor, with an additional master suite and a bunk room designed to be shared (four beds total) on the bottom floor.
This private retreat is the ideal base to get a taste for everything the island has to offer.
THE BAHAMIAN ARCHIPELAGO
With more than seven hundred islands within the extensive archipelago, the string of stunning Bahamian islands off of Florida's east coast next to the North Atlantic lie in the subtropical range that includes thousands of uninhabited cays and turquoise waters ringed with spectacular coral reefs.
Long Island escapes the tourist hustle of Nassau and is considered one of the most unspoiled and scenic in the chain.
You can opt for the indulgence of the nearby Stella Maris resort or explore the many natural wonders, including pink and white sand beaches ringed by dramatic cliffs and caves, as well as a rainbow of marine life including Dean’s Blue Hole, the second deepest blue hole in the world.
The islands are also a fascinating trip through Spanish colonial history, with colorful remnants throughout the chain, all within an hour's flight of one another.
