July 19th, 2022: Beautiful secluded spot
House was perfect. We had everything we needed and more. The water there was beautiful...saw a lot of colorful fish along the rocks. The host was very accommodating and responsive. The house has room for families but is perfect for a honeymoon or a couple's getaway. Loved it!!

April 12th, 2022: Your kids will thank you for coming to the getaway… if they are anything like mine. We are an outdoor family, and have visited Eleuthera previously and will definitely return to this spot. We spent days snorkeling right at the house and saw a ray, hermit crabs, starfish and more. Also my kids caught lizards all day when we needed a break from the sun. It’s true that the bugs will get you, but maybe next time we will bring citronella candles and enjoy the screened in porches even more. We had plenty of space for our kids upstairs and us in the main bedroom, and cooked most of our meals at the house. The WiFi is great, which made test taking to get home easy. We played lots of checkers and enjoyed that the house had games and books. Timothy & the caretakers are wonderful at responding to any needs or issues. Thank you for allowing us to have such a memorable trip!

March 9th, 2022:  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 does a great job behind the scenes. We can’t wait to come back!

The property has everything one would want: Privacy, ocean access, a/c, a great library, and peace. We found the people of N Eleuthera to be incredibly kind and helpful. The owner’s list of contacts was reliable for local airline and car rental. It was our first visit to the Bahamas and plan to return soon.

January 3rd, 2022: Lovely Stay 

This house had so many amenities, privacy, and a great view/access to a little piece of the Caribbean beach. Highly recommend this stay.

November 15th, 2021:  Wow- the pictures don’t do this house justice. What an incredible slice of your own private paradise! We didn’t meet Tim in person but Karen showed us in, very quick responses and easy communication from both. Tim helped us to organize a car rental which I’d highly recommend for getting around the island and exploring. We were really grateful for the fully equipped kitchen as it’s a little drive to a restaurant. Loved the 2 person kayak Couldn’t recommend this place more highly, we’ll certainly be back for another trip soon!!

October 9th, 2021:  The Getaway is a fantastic place to stay. It is very remote and has a beautiful waterfront setting. It is the best Air BnB we have ever stayed at.

"Thanks for letting us stay at your beautiful place. It was fantastic. Karen and Pedro do a great job for you.”

July 23rd, 2021:  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 like 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.

July 10th, 2021:  What an adorable house! Everything was clean, well appointed and easy to access. We loved sitting in a sandy spot on the rocks to watch the sunsets! We've been to Eleuthera 16 times, with this trip being our third summer trip. The bugs were crazy most likely because of a lot of the undergrowth that was around the house. However, with a little bug spray and long sleeves, all was well. Thank you Tim, Pedro and Karen for a fabulous stay!

February 18th, 2019: My husband and I were looking for a quiet, private home with beach access. Getaway definitely delivered. There was a kayak, snorkeling equipment (we brought our own) beach umbrella, and bicycles for our use. Pedro, thank you for the use of your cooler. There was plenty of towels, sheets, etc. the place was so fantastic, we hated to leave, so we didn’t do as much touring as we had originally planned. We did make it to several local attractions and as far down as Sky Beach, which is a beautiful pink sand beach. Once we arrived at Getaway, we took stock of what was available at the house and then hit a grocery store and bought other staples. Be prepared to pay more for anything you buy, but you should expect that since everything is imported onto the island. We did buy produce from a couple of veggie and fruit vendors along the road. We had a lunch and dinner at Daddy Joes and dinner and take out from Seven Seas. We had a beach during low tides, but we didn’t mind as we spent our time either in the water or lounging on the beach chairs. We snorkeled right off this beach, not a huge amount of fish to see, but we did see trumpet fish, small reef fish and on our last day a manta Ray. Bugs. Didn’t see any bugs in or around the house, but the sand flies (no seemsums) are merciless. I must have hundreds of bites all over my body. Buy the strongest bug spray you can buy and use it all the time. I also suggest the largest tube of cortizone to help with the itching. I ultimately found a combination of cortisone and ice relieved some of the itching. The other caution is if you are traveling with kids, the beach area has a lot of jagged coral. This was not an issue for us. I do suggest beach shoes as it did make walking around Getaway and other spots we visited easier to explore. All in all a great week. As I mentioned earlier, we loved it so much, we didn’t tour the mid to south end of the island. Enjoy!

January 15th, 2020: Wow, what a great time we had. First let me thank thank Tim for being so kind as to work my ever changing date of arrival. The joy of flying Non-Rev. my wife and I escaped once again to this magical island without our children for some well deserved alone time. From North Eleuthera airport We took a cab and first stopped at the liquor store then headed to the grocery store for some basic essentials ($ 40 cab) We Then met Karen in Current for assistance to the house. She gave us the lay of the land and was a delight. If we ever had a question she was always reachable. The house had everything that we could need for our time in Eleuthera. We enjoyed the location for the first two days without leaving. We rode the bikes into current and grabbed some snacks and lobster from Karen’s small store. Played in the crystal clear water, explored the coast line with the kayak. Enjoyed peaceful sunsets with the occasional boat passing by. Never even saw a soul on the beach. If you are in need of some valuable time away from the crowds and overpriced drinks this is it. Eleuthera is a hidden gem and we always look forward to our visits. I would definitely come back Thanks for a fabulous time We already miss it
