Delightful Seaside Getaway Beliggende i afsondret omgivelser

Et afsondret badehus, adskilt, på den nordvestlige kyst af The Current (en stille bosætning på ca. 100 personer) på North Eleuthera, Bahamas. Strømmen i umiddelbar nærhed af verdenskendte Harbour Island.

Hovedhuset er velholdt, åben, og er af en rent moderne arkitektonisk design med en behagelig atmosfære. På den ene side bredden af ​​franske døre åbne for lange, screenet, dækket verandaer mod havet, og på indgangen side til en lukket have.

'Getaway' komfortabelt huser 4 personer med en åben stue, spisestue og køkken område, et soveværelse og et åbent hems. Fås til ugentlige leje starter ved $ 1410 for en uge eller 210 dollars om dagen for to personer.

Interiør

Huset indeholder banker i turkis malet franske døre, der åbner mod store fuld længde verandaer mod havet på den ene side og, de indvendige haver og indgangen road, på den modsatte side. Naturlig mexicanske shellstone fliser, der strækker sig fra de indvendige stueetagen overflader til verandaer på begge sider af huset, udvisker linjen mellem det indre og det ydre. Farven på den mexicanske shellstone, ligner i nuance til vinkende strand og hav grønne nuancer af malet træ trim og døre, er simpel afspejling af den større omgivende skønhed.

En ekspansiv "A" frame tag strækker den fulde længde af huset og giver en åben rummelig føler til stue og køkken. I denne levende område, der omfatter halvdelen af ​​grundplan af huset, er den fulde størrelse af rummelighed mærkes. Det er her, at det indre af huset når op det højeste punkt, i spidsen af ​​de bjælker, nogle 20 fod fra gulvet.

En moderne badeværelse adskiller stue / køkken område fra soveværelse og hovedsagelig opdeler grundplan og højden af ​​huset i to. Over soveværelse, en hems, med hvide vaskede fyr gulve, giver støtte til et andet stort luftigt soveværelse, der jævnaldrende ned over den levende område.

Indvendige lofter er færdig med udsatte fer og not tag beklædning. Også udsat er 3 "x 10" strukturelle spær i huset, hvilket giver det indtryk, når man er luxuriating på den komfortable stue hvilestole, at skroget på en robust, sødygtig båd er blevet omhyggeligt drejet rundt og placeres overhead.
Exterior

Det kuperede terræn forsigtigt skråninger fra indgangen vejen ned mod havet. Bygget på en stenet grund med stor vask huller og en grotte Getaway var fint placeret til minimalt indvirkning dette smukke sted.

Pathways, med bløde græs leddene, fører fra indgangen drev til indgangen verandaer af hovedhuset. Lige til venstre for broerne som du nærmer dig huset er en lav indfødt stenmur omslutter en frodig plantning af palmer og skjule åbning til en hule. Hulens indgang falder til omkring 8 'under jordniveau afslører en lang lukket hulrum strække den fulde længde af huset. Hulrummet er omkring halvt så lang som den er bred.

Tilbage på jorden (over hulen) en gangbro fører til en frodig tropisk Breezeway, der åbner ud mod søsiden af ​​huset. I modsætning til den mere velplejede farvede tropiske landskab på indgangen side af huset, fejrer havet landskab skønheden i indfødte busk skov vegetation, der omfatter salt og vind tolerante træer og buske, der er fælles for dette område. Det meste af vegetationen på denne side af huset blev uforstyrret under opførelsen; med fundament plantning bestående af indfødte salt tolerant seagrape hække. Ældre Gumelemi træer indrammer udsigten fra verandaen til havet.

En meandrerende, stejl gangbro fører ned til havet, hvor rock outcrops og den smukke lommestrand er forsigtigt kærtegnede ved havet. Disse samme klippefremspring sikre, at strækning af stranden støder op til huset holdes skjult og privat. Ud over stranden havet strækker sig til horisonten; udsigten herfra uafbrudt og grænseløs.

Our host was very responsive as well as his two property managers. We loved the seclusion and short walk to our own beach. The water was calm and crystal clear, west facing for beautiful evening sunsets. The house had everything we needed. We pedaled bikes down to a local variety store for food, it was well stocked and very clean. Thank you!

Homes location on the beach was exceptional. The road in is very rough but just go very slow with car and you will be fine. The home itself coild usea few updates but was just fine and the views more then make up for it. We explored, preachers cave, blue hole, glass window bridge and queens bath all within 25 min drive from the home. Sunsets are amazing but be carefully of no see ums at dusk on calm days.

Peaceful Getaway in Beautiful Eleuthera

This is a lovely, comfortable and extremely well-equipped home in a secluded piece of paradise. Whole days went by when we saw barely another soul either by the house or at the nearby beaches. It IS a hike from restaurants and stores, but once you’ve gathered provisions, it’s a terrific place for a quiet vacation in beautiful surroundings.

Wonderful

We had a fantastic stay at Gateway. The place is extraordinarily beautiful and wonderfully secluded. It was a perfect home base to explore the north side of the island, or spend the whole day relaxing, swimming, snorkeling, paddle boarding right out front - and then settle in for the postcard sunsets. We really loved Gateway and Eleuthera. I hope to be back!

Beautiful Views

We stayed 6 nights. The view from the back lanai was spectacular. The house is fully stocked with spices, cookware, towels and all you need. Be aware that the best restaurants are in Spanish Wells or Harbour Island, so cooking at home is a good option. There is pizza takeout in Lower Bogue on Thursday-Saturday at Tommy’s but check. The weekend barbeque around the corner from the bakery is very good. It is a great house to relax.

A perfect getaway

We had a fantastic secluded stay . The property is beautiful, clean, and looked just like the photos. There was no sand on the beach during our stay, but there was plenty of space on the rocks to enjoy the sun and beautiful sunsets. Tim arranged for our rental car, making our arrival and departure a breeze. This house delivered everything that we hoped that it would and highly recommend it to anyone looking to getaway.

Amazing private beach stay

Hands down the best beach house I’ve ever stayed in! This place is absolutely perfect for 2-4 people, from the well-equipped house to the adorable and convenient pocket beach. All towels and linens are provided in abundance. The kitchen has oils, vinegars, and spices to supplement whatever you bring home from the market. The air conditioning at night was perfect. The road is rough but we had an old jalopy mini van and it was fine as long as you go slow. We were lucky in that we didn’t need to contact the property managers at all but we met Pedro briefly one morning when he came to check the generator, he was very nice. I can’t say enough good things about this place, I hope we’ll be able to return soon!

If you want privacy this is the place awesome house views water and Pedro was there every time I called If you plan to stay I suggest you go to the bluff shopping center and get plenty of groceries for your stay eating out is not convenient on the island. The packet Tim will send you is very helpful it’s a little rough road for couple hundred yards to house just drive slow privacy and paradise is the two words that describe this awesome home.

Amazing House

Getaway house exceeded our expectations. The house is very well-built and maintained to a high standard. The location is perfectly away from everything and the “pocket beach” was a dream. While we were not there to watch TV, I will say it was very nice to have actual cable tv with all the networks as opposed to just smart TVs like most rentals do these days (the tv at getaway is also a smart TV with Netflix and a few other streaming apps). Tim is very easy to communicate with and his property manager and cleaning lady do a great job behind the scenes. We can’t wait to come back!

Amazing Getaway Location

I had an absolutely incredible time at this delightful seaside getaway! Tucked away in secluded surroundings, it truly felt like a private oasis. From the moment I arrived, I felt utterly relaxed and at ease. The location is unbeatable - steps from the beach, with stunning ocean views from every angle. The rental interior was just as impressive, with beautiful furnishings and decor that made it feel like a home away from home. Everything was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained. One of the things that really stood out to me about this property was how well-equipped it was. The kitchen had everything I needed to cook meals, and plenty of towels and linens were provided. I also appreciated the little touches, like board games and beach gear, that were available for my use. Overall, I can't recommend this rental enough. It's the perfect place to escape from the everyday life's hustle and bustle and unwind. I can't wait to come back and stay again soon!

Restful wonderful waterfront retreat.

If you like listening to waves, “Getaway” is perfect and its pocket beach is wonderful, and the sunset view is gorgeous. The kitchen is very well stocked with what’s necessary to cook meals, including condiments, spices, and herbs. Also there are movie DVDs, board games, and books. An SUV with a high ride height is recommended for navigating the dirt road. The settlement of Current is remote, which means this really is a peaceful “Getaway”. Driving a short distance farther along the main road takes you to that end of the island where there used to be activity. Park and take a pleasant isolated hike along the shore on a dirt-and-rock road around to the Cut and beyond the bend. It’s also a quick drive to the ferries to Spanish Wells or Harbour Island, which are pleasant day trips. Other than that, it’s a bit of a trek to Governor’s Harbour. We didn’t go farther south than that.

Paradise

I highly recommend Getaway for anyone looking for a secluded, private Getaway in paradise. The property is exactly as Tim describes in the listing. It was incredibly clean and well kept. We were looking for a peaceful spot on the water to celebrate our 25th anniversary and that's exactly what we got! The pocket beach was perfect when the ride was low and the snorkeling was incredible when the tide was high. We saw stingrays, sea urchins and many tropical fish. We rented a car and we're able to drive to see many attractions and adventure on the island and coming home to Getaway's perfect sunset was the perfect way to end each day. We took a charter boat trip and the kitchen was well stocked for cooking our catch. The electricity on the island was out for a while, but we weren't affected at all. Pedro was great and kept the generator running without a hitch. I can't wait to come back!

Gorgeous Getaway

Our stay at Getaway was fantastic. The photos don't do this beautiful property justice. A classic modern kitchen, open living area, and bedrooms all lead out onto expansive verandas surrounded by beautifully maintained grounds. We were fortunate that we got see blooming orchids, natural landscapes, and local wildlife. The home was fantastically clean and organized. Its come-and-go beach is private and offers sunset views, snorkeling, swimming, and sun bathing. The fully stocked kitchen has everything you needed to cook at home. Soft, comfy towels and sheets are provided. Current is a quiet and peaceful setting. During our stay some of the screens were out for replacement, which made being on the front porch a bit more challenging when there was no breeze and the bugs were out. The downstairs bed is soft, but the upstairs was firm and more to our liking. The road in to the property is a typical road in Eleuthera. Plan for rough surfaces, and going slow at tricky spots. We loved our time at Getaway and thank our host for the use of his beautiful, meticulously constructed home and the local caretakers for their time and care.

So well equipped

This place is such a joy and very peaceful and quiet. As a bonus there is a herd of goats that cruise around the place occasionally. I have so many good things to say about this place, the kitchen is perfectly set up with all that you look for being right where you expect it to be, ditto the bedrooms and the the towels are great. The only thing I have to complain about and it's a real buzz kill was the pillows and cushions in all the chairs and the sofa. They are all packed out and offer little padding or comfort. There is so much seating at this place; rockers, swinging benches, papasan chairs and more but all of them are flat and limp. And while the upstairs mattress was marginally better the master was dreadful unless you like a really soft mattress that you sink into. But this house is so fabulous otherwise you forget about it until you want to sleep or sit and read. Also, and I know it's always changing but the lead photo shows a lovely beach that is not there right now but what was there was paddleboard and kayak with paddles, lawn chairs and a pretty beach a short drive away that was shady right up to the water. Great place and would recommend it to friends :)

Thank you for choosing and staying at Getaway and for your positive feedback and great comments. Sorry for some of the things that led to your complaints. Feedback on these are: Mattresses: The mattress firmness/softness are somewhat personal; the king mattress has a mattress topper added to it. This was added after a previous guest found the mattress to be too firm. Cushions: The foam on the loveseat was recently replaced when the loveseat and couch were reupholstered. The replacement foam for the loveseat was supposed to be for the couch but these got mixed up during the reupholstering exercise. The intent is to also replace the foam for the couch. The other cushions (chairs, papasan, swings, throw cushions) will be assessed, noting that this is the first time we've had any comments about them. Lead photo and other photos: These have been updated to reflect the current beach situation. I was hoping that the beach would accrete to its previous volumes, thus my hesitancy to change the photo, but perhaps this is wishful thinking on my part. Again thanks for the positive feedback. We look forward to your return!

Nice Place

We had a blast! This property is perfect for family fun and had everything we needed. The beach was perfect for relaxing and lots of ocean life to see while snorkeling. My son chased lizards around and enjoyed playing with the hermit crabs. We even caught and cooked up a very tasteful crab from the beach. When we arrived we were surprised to see the very tiny airport. Our cell phones did not work there and no one had any island maps. Be prepared to spend some money on groceries as they are VERY expensive and not much selection. Most of the places to eat out at all had the same food items and most do not have any atmosphere much less a place to sit down and eat. The only place we found that was decent was out by the glass window. Be prepared to drop $150 per meal for a family of 4 if you plan on eating out and expect chicken and hamburgers. We were a little disappointed that there wasn’t better island lake restaurants. El Karaka Bar & Grill was fabulous and the view of the glass window and ocean is breathtaking. if you’re looking for more of a tourist area you will need to travel to Spanish Wells or Harbor Island. we also thought the island was pretty rundown and not very clean. Such beautiful beaches and things to see, but when you see trash all over the place you wonder why these people don’t clean up to draw people back.

Adam, Thanks for staying! We look forward to your return visit at which time you will see an improvement in the trash and run down-ness. Were you referring to Harbour Island or the whole of Eleuthera? With regards to the airport I look forward to a new airport for North Eleuthera in the near future. Government has been steadily rebuilding airports across the Bahamas but priorities have shifted with COVID. COVID has also resulted in closure of some businesses including restaurants but even outside of COVID restaurants in the area of Getaway are far and between. El Karaka Bar and Grill is definitely a saving grace for the northern end of the island and hopping over to Harbour Island and Spanish Wells certainly opens up the possibilities for greater dining and ambiance choices. I'm interested to know what crab you caught and ate?

Don't Doubt It, Just Getaway

Getaway is an incredible property through-and-through. My wife and I visited in early February, and Karen/Pedro/Tim could not have made our visit any more enjoyable or easier. We arrived to ELH, picked up our rental, stopped by Burchies (recommend picking up groceries, Getaway has a great kitchen and grill!), and then headed to Getaway. Karen met us in Current, showed us to the house, gave us a quick tour, and then we quickly settled in and flipped our switches to vacation mode. The property is incredible. You can take your time exploring the jungle, the caves, the beach, the tidepools, and the water. Tons of local flora, creatures, and everything that Eleuthera has to offer. As for the house itself, it is perfect! The massive front and back porches are a dream, and the open common area in the house is great. Tim has taken the time to label (in what had to have been a painstaking process) so, so much in the home. It is incredibly helpful! As for the location, it is easily one of the most secluded places that I have ever visited. With that being said, it is still no more than a 20-30 minute drive to many of the sights of Northern Eleuthera. In 4 full days, we were able to visit Spanish Wells, Ben Bay Beach, Gaulding Cay, Whale Point Beach, Twin Sisters Beach, the Glass Window Bridge, Sapphire Blue Hole, Tay Bay Beach, and the local beaches in Current. Like the title says, just Getaway!

Wonderful, Beautiful, Peaceful Retreat away from the Usual

Getaway is a unique chance to still experience the local hospitality, friendliness, and daily life of North Eleuthera. Along with an additional rent-able cottage, it offers an opportunity for larger groups to stay in this area. Tim, our Host, is a helpful, knowledgeable and great person to assist with planning your time on Eleuthera. He supplies a comprehensive packet of written information and willingly connected us to any other services we wanted. Getaway is well appointed for all basic things needed and on-site assistance from, Pedro or Kathy is possible. We ran into some hiccups with appliances - because maintaining them is very difficult in the constant salt air; but all works in due time. A car is necessary for the convenience of coming and going to grocery shop and visit the high points of the island. Daily walks along the beach or in the area or bicycle trips if preferred, visits to the local fishermen or the local (meaning the town of Current) store can get many of the daily supplies needed if you wish to minimize the use of a car. The beach in front of Getaway (only 50' away) has lost the large sand spread, but is wonderfully enjoyable with sand entrance to the water and rock ledge for beach chairs, campfires and gathering to watch the sunsets or just to 'hang-out' by the water. The beach area in front of Getaway offers easy, interesting snorkeling and an opportunity for an easy kayak trip in either direction from the property. On a windy day, it is an easy walk/bike ride to the opposite side of the island to have a more protected swim/walk or whatever - you can easily have the best choice each day you are there!! Sound like a wonderful place - it is!

Thanks for the positive review and feedback. Regarding the hiccups with appliances these were quickly remedied and were largely issues relative to the cottage not the main house. The cottage which we do not advertise for rent and only provide for special circumstances does not get the amount of use as the main house, resulting therefore in less day-to-day maintenance. I am also excited to say that the beach has returned significantly in the last few months and am hopeful that it will continue to do so. While we have been left with a pocket beach over the last few years as a result of natural shifts I am hopeful that the beach will continue to grow.
