Coconut Point is a spectacular new (2007) Atlantic oceanfront home on the Bahamian out-island of Eleuthera. It is located in the center of the island on the pristine pink sand beaches of Double Bay. There are 3 bedrooms, 2 full bathrooms and an outdoor shower with hot and cold water, a screened-in ocean-view porch and great room with kitchen and dining area. The house is large enough to sleep up to 10 people comfortably.
Views, Views, Views
Sitting atop a 21-foot dune,the home was designed to maximize the incredible views of both the ocean and the palm forest surrounding it. The great room, kitchen, screened porch, all 3 bedrooms and master bath afford sweeping views of the azure waters of the Atlantic and the lush tropical palm forest.
Master Suite
The centerpiece of the home is the master suite with near panoramic views. Sleep peacefully each night with the windows open, listening to the hypnotic sounds of the waves breaking on the shore below. Wake-up each morning in the king-size bed and watch nature's spectacular morning show;the sun rising over the sparkling water and slowly illuminating the island.
No need to miss the views in the master bathroom either. The huge master shower with rain-shower head, also boasts a window facing the Atlantic.
The Beach
Coconut Point is located on Double Bay, a very private beach with pink, powdery sand. Guests can walk the virtually deserted beach for miles, wandering in search of shells, sea glass and ocean creatures. Dotted with luxury vacation homes, most hours of most days, the beach is quiet and peaceful with rarely a soul in sight. Eleuthera beaches are consistently rated among the top beaches in the world and Double Bay is one of the most beautiful in Eleuthera. Coastal Living , the New York Times and Forbes Magazine are just a few of the publications that have recently touted the virtues of Eleuthera's beaches.

Magnificent Vacation at Coconut Point

Coconut Point was a beautiful getaway from the bleak weather of home. From the long stretches of beach with glimmering pink sand and lapping waves to the friday night fish fries full of music and dancing that were right down the road, every aspect was throroughly enjoyable. The home itself made an instant impression as I walked through the front door. Looking over the threshold I was able to see through a wall of french doors that let in the entire oceanic horizon. Every detail was thought of and the house was decorated with a sharp eye.

We had a wonderful time at Coconut Point. The home is well cared for, beautifully appointed and very welcoming. Such a pleasure to enjoy quiet and peace , the beach is absolutely perfect, never saw a single person for 7 days, very private. The beds are comfortable, the home is clean and up to date, easy to entertain or just relax.

Beautiful and private. The house was exactly as described. The owners and caretaker were great to work with. Everything was clean and just as the photos showed. There is no reason as far as I am concerned to travel so far to all the different caribbean islands. Been there, done that. This is very close to Miami, easy to get to and absolutely beautiful. Private beach. I would highly recommend this property and would like to return.

Simply put - the property is as described. Renting was simple and the owners/caretaker were a pleasure to work with. Hopefully we will visit Coconut Point and Eleuthera again soon. We were on Eleuthera in mid-February 2010. It was a wonderful week, despite cool weather. The house was perfect, well maintained and private. The beach on Double Bay is one of our favorites, and the Caribbean side Ten Bays Beach is only 10 minutes away driving. The house is away from town (GH) but still close enough to everything that you don't feel like you are in a remote location. We have a 16 month old baby. The crib and high chair were greatly appreciated! We had no problems with the house or our visit. We will come again!

Simply put - the pictures and description are accurate. It is heaven on earth. We had no issues and had a wonderful week. The beach is one of the best on the island in our opinion and Ten Bay is 10 minutes away on the Caribbean side if the Atlantic is too rough. They had the baby crib (Graco Pack and Play) and a high chair. Makes travel easier! No internet (a plus) and decent cell phone service for us (T-mobile and ATT GSM). Kudos to John (the caretaker) and Karen (the owner). The renting process was easy and problem free. We will be back...

We absolutely loved Coconut Point, the island and the people. It was our first trip to Eleuthera and we can't wait to come back! Coconut Point is exactly as pictured and is very comfortable. The master bedroom is lovely! It's a great home located in Paradise!
