Sable Rose is a Bahamas vacation rental property, located in the Palmetto Point area of the Golden Isle of Eleuthera. It is on the Atlantic side, and located ON the beach; the sand is right in front of the wall of sliding glass doors, facing the ocean.
The nearest house is about a mile away, and the house is the only one on the half-moon, pink sand, deserted beach. The house is designed as a beach getaway for couples, just the right size, but with the conveniences of civilization.
Two of the finest restaurants on the Island, Mate and Jenny's, and Unique Village are just a few miles away.

Great private beach

You won't find a more secluded private beach in all of Eleuthera! If you are looking for a beautiful pink sand beach, coconut palms and privacy you can't go wrong, if you want luxury, with television, Internet, close to shopping and restaurants, this is not your kind of place. The house it's self is VERY ACCOMMODATING and comfortable. I just spent a week here in June and fell in love with it and can't wait to go back. The beach is spectacular, the snorkeling is fantastic, walking on miles of beautiful beach all to your selves is unparalleled! The property has changed some what sine these pictures were taken , google le sable rose and educate yourself to help set your expectations. But is your looking for a mildly adventurous, romantic, secluded tropical BEACH vacation you won't be disappointed!

My husband and I just got back from a relaxing weeks stay at Sable Rose. We really enjoyed the privacy of the beach. We only saw a handful of people walking on the beach the entire week. The water is a bit rough if the wind is blowing, but during calm weather and low tide we found the water manageable and the snorkeling amazing. The reef is literally right in front of the house and is host to lots of beautiful marine life. You can also walk in either direction on the beach for miles. The house was nice. It was not as fancy looking as some of the other homes in Palmetto Point, but it was definitely the most private and was very comfortable. The view in every direction is fantastic. The deck is huge and has plenty of shade throughout the day. It has also has a great view of the "pond" behind the house. There did seem to be an ant issue inside of the house, but they did not bother us. Watch out for the biting insects at dusk. The location of the house was great. It allowed us to explore the south part of the island on one day and the north on another. The island has so many gorgeous beaches. We loved Ten Bay and Club Med, both of which are a quick drive from the house. Kemps Creek was great for snorkeling, if you can find it! The directions to all of these beaches are not very good. Most of the landmarks to look out for are gone and every road looks like a 4 wheel drive road into the unknown, including the one to Sable Rose! The key is to be adventurous and you will find some amazing spots. Dining on the island was expensive and at times not very good. We liked Tippy's, Our Beach House, and Cocodimamas. We had a bad dinner at Unique Village and would not suggest it. The best meal we had was from Stephen the corner BBQ man in Savannah Sound. Look for his tent on the side of the road. You can save a lot of money cooking at home, but we enjoyed getting out at night and seeing what the island had to offer. There were a few things that were not perfect, which is why I did not give the house a perfect score. First, the grill did not exist. We searched everywhere for it and only found an old rusted out one that was definitely not usable. Second, we were told there was a kayak for our use. That also was never found. We thought of calling the caretaker to ask about these but the cellphone that was supposed to be there was also missing. In the end none of this mattered. We had a fabulous time and recommend this house to anyone.

Unbelievable spot

This place was amazing. Totally peaceful, private and clean. We just got back from there, and Le Sable Rose is a place we plan to return to asap. The isolated location of the cottage, right on the beach with a fabulous deck, has a wonderful view as well. The palm trees lining the beach are as scenic as the beautiful water itself. Three sides of the cottage are glass which is great to wake up to in the morning. The sea is everywhere. We snorkeled out front quiet a bit and didn't feel like we needed to travel farther to see some fine stuff. We also ditched the rental car after only 2 days, as the cottage offered us everything we could have wanted in a restful, therapeutic vacation. No need to search the island for a nicer beach than the one right out front. You can't go wrong here if you want to relax and enjoy the total peace of the ocean.

Le Sable Rose - Eleuthera

We chose this property because it was right on the beach and has amazing views. They had everything that we needed and it was clean and comfortable. The deck is huge and they did have lounge chairs for sunning on the deck or right on the beach. We enjoyed having our meals outside on the picnic table, having bon fires at night, walking along the pituresque beaches, snorkeling and visiting places around the island. We only saw about 4 people walking by during the day so it is like having your very own private beach! Romantic and relaxing.... I would recommend this place to anyone and we hope to return next year!

Hi! Le Sable Rose has been the only place we have returned to 5 times in our many travels over 35+ years of marriage! It is a magical place! After leaving the airport we stock up on groceries and liquor in Governor's Harbour. We like the Texaco station grocery store and Burrows. As we are driving down the sandy road to Le Sable Rose we are always very excited and emotional because of the many happy memories we have had there. It is where we come to relax and rejuvenate in complete privacy. The house is perfect for the two of us! It is spotless when we walk in because Natasha the Housekeeper and her family are AMAZING! They are like family to us now. She has made us some wonderful meals like Lobster Salad and Grouper. The deck has a picnic table that we love to eat out on to catch the gorgeous sunsets. We were happy to see two new lawn chairs last year to sun bathe on the deck and back patio. Three steps off the deck you step immediately into the white sandy beach. Twenty yards out is the clear blue Atlantic ocean that we can not wait to jump into as soon as we arrive. Right in back of the house is great snorkeling. We have seen many colorful fish, a 4ft. Tarpon, Rays, and two Lobsters in the lagoon area. The house is very secluded and has glass sliding doors all around it for amazing views! We hardly ever see anyone walking the beach the entire time! Make sure you take a flashlight and walk the beach at night. You will never see stars like this! Some restaurants we love to eat at are Dolce Vita, Cigatoo in Governor's Harbour (try the Bahamian fish stew for breakfast, yes for BREAKFAST) We love their fried Grouper there too and they have the BEST Key Lime Pie you'll ever have. Other great restaurants are: Sunset, Mate and Jenny's, Buckaneer, Tippy's (get a reservation here), and of course Captain Jack's for a great outdoor bar and wonderful food. It has a band playing some nights. Natasha may be there too! We use to get in the rental car and take off for the day, but now we like to stay right at Le Sable Rose! If you want to get away some suggestions are: so many beautiful beaches (pick up a copy of Elusive Beaches of Eleuthera at any gift shop), Harbour Island is very busy with tourists but worth a drive/ferry once, Bannerman Town Lighthouse (a bit of a drive south), Ocean Hole, Muriel's right in North Palmetto Point has yummy breads, pies, and tarts. The people of Eleuthera are so friendly. We LOVE our Le Sable Rose!

This property doesn't look much like these photos at all. To start off, the owner never contacted the housekeeper to notify her that we were arriving. We waited for more than 3 hours for the wonderful woman to clean the property while we were eaten alive by sand flies on the beach in front of the house. My husband had over 300 bites on 1 foot alone. The beach photo has been photshoped to have all the seaweed and rocks removed. The front view showing all sand has entirely overgrown with vegitation. The jacuuzzi consists of a regular bath tub with water jets in a bathroom where the ceiling paint is all coming down and the caulking is hugely cracked. The house was supposed to have a grill as well as snorkel gear....neither are there. Even the nice beach chairs in the photos are not there. There are 2 very beat up old chairs and a warped, unusable picnic table on a deck that is coming apart. I was told after contacting the owner upon our return, that we were given a discount anyway and that's all there was. We were given no discount. The owner never even apologized. He then changed the rate on the website to show the new rate allowing for "discount" All that....the people and island of Eleuthera are absolutely wonderful. We'll be back, just not here.
