Location: Ten Bay Beach, Eleuthera, Bahamas, Caribbean (Eight miles from Governors Harbour; 3 from Palmetto Point)

Accommodations:  Oceanfront Villa, 2 Bedrooms, 1 Bath (Sleeps 4)

BAHAMA VILLA is a very popular 2 bedroom private home overlooking the turquoise waters of the Caribbean and Ten Bay Beach. Honeymooners especially enjoy its wrap-around views, comfortable funishings, private setting, central air, and porch breezes. You can fish right off the porch or on the pier of your own private cove, then wade over to the mile-long semi-deserted white sandy beach, swim, dive, snorkel, or charter a boat. The key words at this getaway are "relax," "unwind," and "chill."

Come for a week. Enjoy spectacular Caribbean sunsets, wrap-around views, fantastic weather, and other unique island treasures. Later spend time reading or watching a movie selection from the large video library in air-conditioned comfort. You will want to return again and again. Guaranteed.

  Paul Kluijtmans ,
  • The moment we set foot on the deck of Bahama Villa we new that this vacation would be different from any other stay before. We have rented beach houses on the Gulf of Mexico, the North Sea, the Atlantic and the Mediterranean, but Bahama Villa is beating them all. Lay down in the hammock and allow the view to overtake you, you will wish that heaven will be like that. To your right is the well protected 900 yard Ten Bay beach, one of the best beaches of the Bahamas, even during high season peaceful and clean (only a few houses have access to this beach, during our stay we only once saw 15 persons on the beach). In front of you a picture perfect scenery of dark and light turquoise blue sea colors and topical fish swimming visible in the crystal clear water right under your large deck, and left of you: palm trees, coconuts, conch shell, coral rocks and a sun set on the sea horizon as in a dream. Great snorkeling starts right under the house as the overhanging rocks provide shelter for fish and growth of coral. (it felt like being in a Jacques Cousteau documentary). The house is very private and cozy with good beds,(first class bedding) a living room with a 270 degree view and is well taken care of. The interior has recently been upgraded . The house was very clean!!! The local house manager is very friendly and helpful. The view from the master bedroom with a full moon of the Caribbean Sea is to die for…. You will also find a good collection of books, DVD, detailed maps, and tips and hints on what to do on the island in the house. This villa is unique because it feels as if you are on a boat and the on beautiful the beach in few steps……it is big value for money!!!! We will recommend this house highly and we must return! Paul and Miriam from Crestet, France, staying in Bahama Villa in March 2009. Ps. Before we went we read the comments below and were afraid they were maybe a bit exaggerated, but we can promise you, they are not!

  • My name is Kathryn Bayless, and I and my husband recently stayed at your home in July of 2007. I just wanted to say what a wonderful time we had. Your home was just perfect for our anniversary get away. We saw more sea life from right off the front of the deck than we did the entire Bahamas trip this year and 2 years ago. I just wanted to say thank you so much for sharing your piece of heaven with us.

  • My husband and I recently returned from our honeymoon at Bahama Villa, where we had the most fantastic time! The house was wonderful (the bed in the master bedroom was heavenly comfortable) Ten Bay and Eleuthera are beautiful, and I would recommend Bahama Villa to anyone looking to escape to paradise for a little while -we will definitely be back as soon as possible! By the way, of all the snorkeling we did in Eleuthera, some of the best was right off the dock of the house - don't miss it! Don't hesitate to book a vacation at this house - we loved loved loved it! Thank you so much for letting us stay with you! Brad and Kerry Kocsis

  Keith and Bernice ,
  • I spent a lot of time searching the internet for the perfect beach vacation and narrowed my search down according to location and amenities and of course cost. Bahama Villa seemed to be the best and through a gigantic leap of faith we paid for a 9 day stay in Dec. and WOW Bahama Villa exceeded all our expectations. A Swiss family followed us in Bahama Villa who had a very similar web search experiece ...and the first words out of their mouth was "we really lucked out". I must admit that I never knew what a relaxing holiday could be like until this vacation. What ever you imagine this Bahama Villa holiday could be I can bet the reality of a vacation here will far exceed your expectations. See other comments above regarding no-see-ems and dining out to get the full picture. Keith and Bernice

  • My husband and I honeymooned at Bahama Villa in the middle of May 2005. It was the most beautiful place I have ever been! Could not have asked for a better honeymoon! It is like having your own private island paradise! The bugs weren't a problem due to the perfect breeze. Bahama Villa is incredible. We will definately be back, hopefully for the first year anniversary! Everyone there was soooo nice and helpful. I really felt like royalty for a week! It is so nice to get away from the crowds for a while! Loved it! Romantic sunset too!!! Thank you guys!

  • Wir verbrachten wunderbare Tage in der Bahama Villa an der Ten Bay. Die Ten Bay gehört zu den schönsten Stränden von Eleuthera und die Bahama Villa ist genau das richtige für erhohlsame Tage. Ebenso überwältigt waren wir von den zuvorkommenden, freundlichen Leuten auf Eleuthera. Gerne wieder ! :-)

  • Since our visit in June 2002, we've received many inquiries about the resort and our total experience there. Our reply is always the same...If you are looking for seclusion, yet something in a comfortable and secure and friendly environment, and one that has everything you need, this is the resort for you. Nothing too fancy, but all the comforts of home including a tastefully decorated and comfortable environment: comfy beds, nice kitchen and bath, dining and living area, great deck and great property! Just go! :)

  • this rental is even nicer than the pictures. the view is lovely. peaceful. like being on a boat..everywhere you look in the villa there is water view.the home is bright clean and very comfortable. the wrap around deck is super. the downside is the "no see-ums". also, for those who like "upscale"dining out the offerings are very limited nearby. don't go for "fine"dining. on the other hand, if you like FRESH fish..to buy or prepared at low key restaurants and don't like to dress for dinner or need fine wines served to you it won't be a problem. this island is for those who want lo key, peaceful vacation. be sure and explore the other beaches listed in the book "elusive beaches of eleuerthera" which is at bahama villa.
