Disliked: Cleanliness
Good for a longer stay
The listing oversold this place a little, it was less luxurious than I was expecting. It was fine and the property manager Brett was great, I was just underwhelmed. First thing I noticed was it was not on the beach, it’s in a field. Which is my main complaint, I wanted to roll out of bed and drink coffee on the beach and have wine on the beach for sunset. Which brings me to the second point. Yes you can take a fairly long golf cart ride to the beach, but it’s not very well appointed. There were literally 25 wine glasses, but not a single plastic cup or cup with a lid to take the aforementioned beverages to the beach. Not any staples at all, the coffee maker didn’t work, there was no Kleenex, that kind of stuff. Then the golf cart broke, then we had a mouse and had to have traps all over the kitchen. That cost us two nights of sleep. First from hearing it eating our plantain chips then from hearing it scream caught in the sticky pad we had to figure out how to remove from the house at 2:00am. Finally the location on Eleuteria. I had never to been to this island before just Abaco and so was expecting remote, but not that I needed a car to leave the unit. I thought the beach was out the front door, but it’s actually out the front entrance of the property and across the street. The Atlantic beach is maybe a mile away, which is what the golf carts are for. You can’t take them anywhere else. My review says good for a longer stay because of this, if we had made the hour long drive to the good grocery store we would have had provisions and not needed to go out, but we didn’t want to spend a whole day doing that. the grocery stores it says are close are not grocery stores they are more mini marts and had no fruit or vegetables. Anyway since we didn’t really have anything but a can of Maxwell House from the mini mart, we had to get in the car for every meal and nothing really opens until noon that is close by. Most restaurants were about 20 minutes away. I’m making this seem like a super negative review, but the place is fine. Just trying to help people who’s first time to Eluthera, this might not be the place for you.
