About

Kelly's House & Home is Nassau's most prominent hardware, home goods, and general merchandise retailer — a local institution that has served Bahamian families and businesses for generations. While it isn't a traditional family activity destination, traveling families often find practical reasons to visit: picking up beach gear, art supplies, craft materials, basic household necessities for a rental villa, or outdoor equipment for activities during their Nassau stay. The store's enormous inventory means it functions as something of a general merchandise hub for Nassau residents, covering everything from paint and plumbing supplies to outdoor furniture, kitchen goods, sporting equipment, and garden materials.

For families staying in self-catering accommodation, Kelly's can supply everything from additional towels and kitchen tools to games and outdoor toys that make a rental property feel more comfortable. Kids who enjoy hardware stores — a surprisingly common childhood enthusiasm — will find the scale of Kelly's genuinely impressive. The wide aisles accommodate strollers and make navigating with young children manageable.

Kelly's also stocks practical beach and outdoor gear that may be more economically priced than equivalent items in resort gift shops or tourist-facing stores. If you've forgotten something essential for your Nassau trip or need to stock a rental villa, Kelly's is the right first stop.

Why Kids Love It

Kids love the sheer scale and variety of a large hardware and home store — it's endlessly interesting even if you're not buying anything. Older kids who are into building, crafts, or DIY projects will find the hardware and tools section fascinating. There's something for curious minds who like to understand how things work.
