If you are looking to get away from the busy life, this is your perfect spot! We were looking forward to visiting Eleuthera and it's beautiful beaches, and to not feel like we were visiting a touristy resort. This cottage is the perfect size for a couple, and has just what you need to cook a nice meal, and, we were lucky enough to have not only coolers, but also ice packs, and beach chairs available during our stay for a beach picnic every day. The back deck overlooks crashing waves with the most perfect soundscape you can imagine. There is no shade on the deck, but there is a constant cool breeze. If that isn't enough, you can enjoy the deliciously cool AC in the cottage. There is a beautiful small beach a short (really short) walk away, and all of the beaches that we drove to were almost empty and absolutely beautiful. The property managers provided a fantastic planning guide with all of the inside scoop on the island, as well as contacts for rental cars, trip guides, equipment rental, restaurants and grocery shopping, and pretty much anything you need to know for your visit. The owners are steps away, and very helpful. Every local Bahamian that we met was incredibly friendly. Be prepared to slow down to "island time".. but this is exactly what we were looking for.
