February 15th, 2024: 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!

January 30th, 2024: Restful wonderful waterfront retreat
Carleton W.
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!

March 26th, 2023: Amazing Getaway Location
Helen B.
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!

February 25th, 2023: We felt like we hit the jackpot with this house in Current. FYI, we're a family of 4 (sons 14 & 17). We love nature and are good travelers in the USA but haven't traveled much outside the US. We cook our own meals because two have celiac. Shopped at local stores; avoid the beef. We like to explore and put 400 miles on our SUV rental in 8 days. (You don't want a sedan on Getaway's road!) Went as far south as Tarpum Bay and spent several days seeing the sites of North Eleuthera. Some days we gladly stayed "home". Getaway's own beach was our favorite swimming spot of all: Spent hours each day snorkeling the rocks to the right, and enjoying the water, paddleboard and kayak. Saw thousands of small fish, a juv sea turtle, two kinds of rays, and more. The shore is beautiful here, and the sunset view was a treat. And all ours! Glad to have wifi, generator, and laundry. Verizon was flaky. Cave was neat. New neighbors on the left, NOBODY on right. Loved it. Stay here!
