About this property
Cozy stone studio cottage on private pink sand beach
Double Bay is centrally located on Eleuthera, about 4 miles south of Palmetto Point on the Atlantic Ocean. The beach is a two mile stretch of pink sand with coral reefs dotted along the beach. It's a very private area with mostly large estate homes. We have 6 acres of land on the beach which we have left undisturbed except a clearing around the house and a path cut through to the beach.
This newly renovated stone cottage was the first structure on Double Bay. Repotly built as a fisherman's cottage, we unearthed the cottage from the bush, gave it a major overhaul, and ended up with a lovely, modern studio cottage with everything you need and more! The cottage is located toward the south end of Double Bay and may be rented alone or in tandem with Palms cottage. The cottage is surrounded by palmetto palms, with a winding path several hundred feet to beautiful Double Bay. The stone exterior is surrounded by wide covered porches with plenty of space for relaxing, dining, or a secluded outdoor shower. The exterior porches are a new addition to the original stone structure.
The interior is entirely new, from ceiling to floor. Tall wooden tray ceilings enhance the open floor plan. The open floor plan includes a full kitchen, bedroom and sitting area with a separate bathroom. A washer/dryer, air conditioning and ceiling fans are included. Our local craftsman built the kitchen cabinets and most all of the bedroom furniture. Local talent is further evident in the art and furnishings around the cottage. A fully equipped kitchen, all towels, linens and even beach chairs are included with your rental.
We have owned Palms cottage on the same stretch for 20+ years,. The homes are completely separate from each other and totally private. We have put the same care into the construction and will maintain the new stone cottage as we have Palms all these years. We are looking forward to welcoming new guests to share in the beauty of Double Bay

This was our second stay at The Stone House. It is a simple one room cottage with a comfortable bed and a spectacular porch on three sides of the house to enjoy morning coffee, bird watching, reading, and simply taking in the beauty and peace all around. The kitchen is equipped for simple meal preparation. The additional outdoor shower is wonderful.We love staying here because of the location, at the quiet end of Double Bay, which is absolutely magical for walking, swimming, reading, knitting and snoozing. Leigh Ann is a fabulous host!

I hope we have the opportunity to host you again. You are most welcome anytime!
We absolutely loved everything about this stay! The grounds are so pretty and lush. The wraparound porch truly makes this the perfect house. The private path to the beach is beautiful. The beach is gorgeous and secluded. The house is well-appointed and clean! All of the rave reviews are accurate!We've stayed in a handful of homes in the Bahamas and this was, hands down, our favorite. We hated to leave ...
We had such a great stay, the Stone Cottage is cozy and adorable! We used the kitchen quite a bit and found that there was everything we needed to cook a variety of meals. The porch is beautiful! Internet signal is strong and reliable. While there isn’t a TV, an iPad or laptop would provide some evening entertainment or maybe even a mini projector on one of the porch walls. Staying on Double Bay was dreamy, it’s so nice being able to just walk down the path and you’re staring at crystal clear water! You’re close to restaurants, great beaches if you want to venture away from Double Bay, and the care taker was excellent. I would definitely come back!
Secluded area. Private Beech. All week long... only saw one other couple along the entire beech line! Met that couple and socialized with them as 'our neighbors'.
Wonderful first trip to Eleuthera. Cottage was perfect and well appointed. Wonderful wrap around porch and lovely grounds. The beach was beautiful and very private with awesome snorkeling opportunities. Anne was very accommodating and responsive. We would highly recommend the cottage and can’t wait to return next year!
My wife and I had a wonderful week at the Stone Cottage. The beach was beautiful and private, we barely saw anyone. We enjoyed relaxing on the porch in the mornings with coffee and in the evening after a day on the beach. The hosts were very helpful and responsive. The house was perfect for what we needed and we will definitely be planning another trip back!
Beautiful compact little cottage that had everything we needed. The kitchen included trash bags, a variety of spices(we added some as well) oil/spray, water dispenser, dish detergent, laundry detergent, bug spray, sunscreen as well as plenty of cooking and eating utensils. The bathroom was spacious and clean with extra towels and beach towels for use. The bed was super comfy and the sitting area was nice as well. The wide porch with chairs, table and a hammock was lovely and included a line for hanging wet suits. The outdoor shower was nice and there was an emergency generator which came on a few times. The private beach was beautiful and huge the path there was clean and wide and easy walking. WiFi worked well, no TV but that was okay with us.
The Stone Cottage was exactly as described. Ann was helpful and responsive when we had delay in our plans. Enjoyed the walk to the beach each morning for sunrise. It was great to have beach chairs and umbrella available. Most of the time we had the beach to ourselves. The porch was also great for relaxing and you could still hear the ocean. Perfect for just relaxing and going off the grid which is exactly what we wanted to do. Thanks for a fabulous memory.
We had great time at the cottage. This was our first trip to Bahamas. Everything was as described. Anne, the property manager was always available and very helpful with any questions. Thanks a lot Anne.
We enjoyed our stay because we wanted to explore the South end of the island. The studio was a good fit. We loved the large porch and hammock. The only problem was construction noise from down the road & workers coming into the yard doe water quite frequently.
Stone cottage was perfect for my wife and I during our stay. We loved the private beach and the central location on the island. Would 100% recommend to others.
Wonderful place to rent, well-stocked home and appreciated the beach supplies very much! Our beach was always private, we loved the wraparound porch and outdoor shower. A perfect vacation!

About the host
Hosted by Leigh Ann
Why they chose this property
We bought our first property, Palms at Double Bay in 1995. We added the property to the north some 12 years later and discovered a small stone cottage buried in the bush, reportedly the first structure built on Double Bay. We didn't have the heart to tear it down so we contracted with a local builder and completely renovated the cottage, adding porches to the footprint. We are excited to offer this special cottage to guests as we have Palms for the past 20 years.
What makes this property unique
Palms cottage has always been a place of privacy and peace. When renovating the stone house we took great care in retaining its island flavor and the privacy of both homes. We cut a separate path to the beach and have begun a few plantings around the house. The south end of Double Bay is especially private because there are few homes there. The beach in front of the property is all sand and extends into the water on either side. And then there is Double Bay, a beautiful two mile stretch of pink sand.
