April 7th, 2024: We had a blast. Great place you have there. A bit of a shame that the new neighbors are so close. We only saw them one day.

March 21st, 2024: 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.

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!

January 30th, 2024: 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.

Thank you so much for the stay at Getaway. Your home is beautiful and it shows how much care was put into its construction and its continued upkeep. It certainly sold us on how lovely Current is as a place to be when coming to Eleuthera. As an admirer of gardening and landscape, you've done a fantastic job with maintaining the native species of the site and incorporating others that highlight the geography of the landscape. (the caves are fascinating!) It was wonderful exploring what was around the house. Thank you -

January 21st, 2024: 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.

Fabulous well-equipped home - everything is there! Bike rides into Current and Current Cut in the mornings then swimming and sunning in the afternoons. Etched rock steps leading into the sea. Fishing boats and sailboats mooring off shore. We enjoyed both the open and screened porches. 10 stars!!!!

January 7th, 2024: We had an incredible stay at this beautiful villa on the sea! The kitchen was fully equipped with all the utensils and spices we needed. The veranda offered stunning sea views, and the owners even provided a helpful local guide. Being able to use their kayak and bikes was a fantastic bonus. The location was very private, and we would absolutely love to come back. Our favourite place so far in the Bahamas!

Hi Tim, Thank you so much for letting us stay at your beautiful place! The pictures on Airbnb don't accurately portray the charm of your villa. It was a delightful surprise to discover that the place was much more beautiful than expected.

May 1st, 2023: This was our 2nd time staying at Getaway and it was exactly how we remembered it! It’s the last house on the street and very private (although a house is being built next door now). You definitely need to rent a car! It has everything you could possibly need. We used the paddle board, kayak and we rode bikes around town almost every day. We were able to get a couple coconuts out of the yard and use for smoothies. The beach is nonexistent when the tide is in , but we didn’t mind since that’s the best time to snorkel the area. We also had a couple snakes stay around the path to the water, so just watch your step. They won’t bother you if you don’t bother them. Timothy is a great host and we would definitely rent with him again!

Review 1: What an amazing trip. We don’t want to go home!! Karen and Pedro are amazing and your home is amazing! Thank you for everything! We will be back next year! Definitely the best stay in the 15 years we’ve been coming here! Thank you all!!

Review 2: We loved our stay so much and the house is beautiful! The pictures definitely do not even show how amazing it is! The two massive screened in porches were a wonderful place to sit back and relax. Great snorkeling right next to the house and we saw lots of rays and all kinds of fish. Karen and Pedro were also amazing and we plan to return next year! Thanks to Tim for sharing his beautiful home! We loved every second of our secluded vacation

February 5th, 2020: 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!
