Having rented properties on both Harbour Island and the main island of Eleuthera, we found Bay Cottage to be a perfect home right on the 'bay'! Super comfortable with all amenities! While we were only a party of 4 (2 couples), this house can easily accommodate a party of 8 with a lot of room. The upstairs is its own unit with 2 bedrooms (twin beds) both with en suite bath, kitchenette, living area and large front and back porches. (I would not recommend young children staying upstairs by themselves since there is only an exterior entrance/exit to this unit.)
The location right on the water is equipped with dock and large back patio. You can snorkel/swim and boat right from the dock! Easy 5 min walk to the beach or quick jet with a golf cart. The house is nestled in a residential community at the south end of the island, but still easily accessible to Dunmore Town for dining/shopping.
We were pleasantly surprised to find the house comes with a caretaker, Jennifer, who comes daily to clean, do laundry, etc. She is a lovely person, with a warm personality and helpful with any recommendations, etc. Thank you Jennifer!!!!
Take advantage of a boat tour or snorkeling adventure from Juan, whose boats are available on property if desired. He's a great guy!
Overall an excellent week's vacation. We will definitely return to Bay Cottage and bring some friends to enjoy the magic. PS - they've painted the house since the photos were taken. It's now blue and not pink. We were a little confused when taking the boat taxi to the house. BUT everyone knows the house and it's great since the water taxi will bring you directly to the house vs. going the to Government Dock. Don't hesitate to book this property. It's a lot of bang for the $ on Harbour Island!
