Sands of Time is ready for You
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (5)
"The house was clean, nicely decorated and well situated for visiting in Eluthera since it is located approximately mid island. It was well equipped, especially the kitchen. It was just my sister and our husbands visiting for the first time so we spent a lot of time exploring Eluthera, Spanish Wells, and Harbor Island. I did report a leak under the master bedroom window after a driving rain and again after a very rainy day. I felt it very important to report this since I own a second home,too,...

Oceanfront Glass House on Private Deserted Pink Sand Beach
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (75)
"My family of 4 stayed for 6 nights in late March. The house was clean and well equipped with comfortable beds. There are many chairs, coolers, towels, snorkeling gear, and even some floaties available for use. The view is amazing, I could never tire of the view. The beach is a short walk down a couple flights of wooden stairs. The sand is fine, soft, white with pink mixed in. You can walk for miles and miles in either direction. We will be back!"

Bamboo House: Charming Private Tropical Oasis in the Heart of the Village.
10.0 out of 10, Exceptional, (46)
"My family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Bamboo House. The host (Pascale) was great to work with and provided excellent recommendations for us to help us plan our stay and was quick to reply to any questions throughout. The housekeeper (Olga) was invaluable in allowing us to disconnect as she came daily to refresh the house and even lended a hand with our laundry. Thanks to the onsite generator, even with a spotty island power grid the AC stayed cold, the showers hot, and the TV on to...

"Well located on the center of the island, 8 min walk to a quiet beach. Super clean apartment, friendly owner. We appreciated the beach chairs we could take along with us. The only disappointment is that we thought from the listing the large balcony facing the ocean would be private and adjacent to our unit, but it is the owner's balcony which we could access. No direct ocean view from our apartment."

Romantic getaway on the beach
9.8 out of 10, Exceptional, (8)
"This cabin was accurately described in the listing - it had all the basic necessities. The bed was comfortable and the living space was open with lots of windows. And of course, the beach with a lovely swimming area and no one else around was wonderful. Loved the hammock! We knew about the cold shower and were fine with that. The only downside was the resident dog (not Rain). He's young, friendly and playful. Also ill-mannered, mouthy, jumps up, nips at toes and legs and barks like a maniac...
