Vacation rentals with a kayak in North Eleuthera

The house is really perfect; Mark clearly pays attention to getting all the details right. Everything you need is there. Every balcony has lovely seating; all the beds have well designed bedside tables and lights; the kitchen is well stocked. And the private beach with sparkling blue water was a delight. Mark answered all my questions and offered suggestions on restaurants and snorkeling spots that made our vacation really come together.

We had an absolutely delightful time staying at Serendipity on Eleuthera! Eleuthera is insanely beautiful and the villa is just perfect. The view is even more spectacular than any photo could ever convey, and we really enjoyed being able to walk right out back to our very own private swimming area. Swimming right there at the villa may have been our very favorite aspect of the trip! The time and thoughtfulness that Jodi and her family must have spent, carving out that little nook to allow for amazing access to the Caribbean, is so impressive :) The villa itself was also outstanding. So squeaky clean and filled with absolutely everything you need to have a comfortable stay. Jodi also allows access to the garage as well, where there are inner tubes, snorkels, masks, water shoes, etc. to make your stay perfect. Re: location, the villa is a ~8 min walk to Rainbow Bay Beach, one of the best on the island, and is centrally located, making it an easy drive to so much more. We will be back!

We had a lovely stay at Sonshore Cottage! The house was clean, had a beautiful esthetic, extra beach towels were in the closet for our use, a soft cooler and plenty of ice packs were available for our beach outings, and more! Sarah was also a very responsive host providing us with a lot of local recommendations and help if we had any questions. We will definitely stay at Sonshore Cottage again when we return to Eleuthera!

Sara was a gracious host. Her house was exactly as she described. It had everything needed for a fun day at the beach- chairs, umbrella, floats and coolers. She accommodated the change in my travel schedule and also allowed an early check in. We had a fantastic 18 night stay. This property is highly recommended, and I anticipate a stay in 2026.

Beautiful home overlooking a stunning beach in the center of Eleuthera. The bathrooms and kitchen are modern and perfectly clean. This home spoiled us during our trip to Eleuthera and was so welcoming and comfortable that we didn’t want to leave. There is a huge center dining room table and each bedroom wing is private and comfortable with on-suite bathrooms complete with lovely walk-in showers. The walk down to the beach crosses the beautiful back yard and there is a deck and covered sitting area overlooking the wonderful sugar sand beach that stretches for miles. We can see why past visitors love this prime location. Close to town to visit for groceries, gas and the Friday fish fry. It truly has everything you need and more. The view from the back deck is breathtaking!

My family and I had a wonderful amazing stay at your home. Every day was a beautiful adventure, walking around the island and exploring the beaches and snorkeling. It was serene, rustic, and a breath of fresh air from our busy lives. Glad we brought food as the grocery stores were something to get used to, but it was an adventure, and everybody was so nice. We will for sure come back.

Perfect! Cobalt Cottage was everything and more! We loved every moment we spent inside the cottage. Our kids enjoyed catching hermit crabs and playing on the slide / swings! The screened in porch was the place to be, and was so peaceful. Adrian, the property manager, was so helpful and made sure we knew where to go and how to get there; he even help set up a boating experience, it was amazing. It was nice having him close by, always ready to help if needed! We felt safe the entire time, and everyone on the island were so nice. We used Chad and Hope’s guide a lot, it was so helpful and informative. Everything we did was based on this guide and it did not steer us wrong! We will definitely be back; our kids (4, 7, 10) were so sad to leave, so were we!

This is a rural island. Think castaway with WiFi/hot shower/kitchen amenities. No night life we could find but that’s ok. Just know you’re going for the solitude and ability to swim in a beautiful calm ocean and, one more thing: June’s house may look like a restaurant, but that’s their private home. She gives you access to all the toys underneath the home, though. I kayaked around the little island and that was fun.

really great. everyone is so friendly and helpful

Our family could not have had a better time. Jody’s place did not disappoint and exceeded expectations. Taking my family of 6 to Spanish Wells kids aged 14,13,9,4 (turned 5 on the trip) was quite the adventure with a long journey to arrive. Because of this I had no shortage of questions for Jody. His responses were perfect, thoughtful, made sense, and most of all extremely quick. The house is beautiful, about a 1 minute walk to a beach you feel like is all yours, or 30 seconds if your one of my kids. But the walk was pleasant, peaceful, and was beautifully decorated for Christmas! Lit up wonderfully at night as well. So happy we picked Spanish Wells and could not recommend Turtle Cottage or any of Jody’s cottages on this stretch of heaven. I honestly could go on and on, they were helpful and flexible with travel woes, gave advice that was on point and just good people. Go here and don’t miss opportunity to be here during Christmas.

Christy was amazingly responsive leading up to our trip helping us to find a lobster hunting charter which was fantastic and even booked our transportation to and from the airport which requires a boat taxi. She even met us at the dock, brought us to our golf cart, and even personally showed us to where our boat charter would pick us up and brought us to the house. The house was perfect for the 3 of us and we really enjoyed our quiet time in the morning on the porch and the day bed and chairs by the water on the property. The house is a 5-10 min golf cart ride to everything on the island. Lastly, when we did ask for anything, they were extremely responsive. I would definitely stay there again.

this location was great for us. we will return

The cottage was the perfect location. Loved view from the porch and crows nest. The toys were useful too...kayak, paddleboard and hammock. Outside grill and table were a great addition. Plenty of linens, pillows, blankets, seating and space for the three of us. We cooked alot, kitchen amenities somewhat scarce but doable. It is a shared outdoor space with your neighbors, but ours were wonderful. Harbourside was very helpful with water taxis, phone numbers and contacts for our adventures. We planned a day trip to Eleuthera with ease. We would absolutely choose to stay at sandcastle and sanddollar again.

Gail and Austin were both fantastic hosts. Very responsive and accommodating. The rental was next to their personal home on Russell island. Awesome private water access at the end of their road. Austin showed us around their garden and cut fresh fruit for us to try. The cottage is exactly as shown in the photos. Ac in every bedroom is nice. We really enjoyed our stay and hope to be back!

I’ve stayed here multiple times over the years, and with the recent renovations it’s even more beautiful than ever! Bonnie is super responsive, helpful, and kind. I highly recommend this rental, and will happily stay here again next time I’m in SW.

Absolutely loved our stay in this adorable cottage on this magical island. Already dreaming of returning!
