We had a fantastic secluded stay . The property is beautiful, clean, and looked just like the photos. There was no sand on the beach during our stay, but there was plenty of space on the rocks to enjoy the sun and beautiful sunsets. Tim arranged for our rental car, making our arrival and departure a breeze. This house delivered everything that we hoped that it would and highly recommend it to anyone looking to getaway.
Wendy R. January 18, 2019: Best place to stay in whole Eleuthera. Tim was such a good host, everything was clean, fresh and more beautiful than in the pictures. Will definately recommend Tim 🙂 5 stars from Denmark!
Johanne L.December 25th, 2018: People who love there privacy will love it. Mostly the sea is very calm and a walk on the side is so nice...and so much to see.. little fish and shells. One day we saw dolphins passing by. One thing we didn't like were the sandfleas...so watching the beautiful sunset you need the right clothes. The bicycles that you can make use of are perfect we have had a fun time using them. House is nice and clean. Washing machine available. Tim and Karen thanks for staying and taking care and helping us having a very nice holiday.
Kennis H.January 9th, 2019: This is a wonderfully situated and tastefully designed beach house. The location is extremely private and beautiful. Timothy and his team do a seem-less job and the whole experience is unforgettable. Highly recommend
Camomile H.December 15th, 2018: Wow, what a stay. Beautiful water, beautiful home, beautiful surroundings. Can't say enough good things about the Eleuthera Getaway. We were looking for somewhere to go "off the grid" for a week after a stressful work year, and could not have found a better place. We only saw one person near the property in 9 days! You can truly get the Castaway feeling.
We landed at North Eleuthera Airport, picked up our rental Jeep Wrangler, and drove over to the home. Road is pretty bumpy so you probably will want a vehicle that can handle it. Check in was seamless, and both caregivers were open and helpful. Grocery store and liquor stores are about a 30 minute drive. We brought frozen meat from the US.
As far as the home goes, Wifi worked great, we were able to stream Netflix/Hulu with zero problems. Kitchen is stocked with basically everything you need. Power went out a few times but you don't even notice. Generator automatically kicks in.
The ocean side of the home is a bit rocky, but we knew that going in. When we stayed, the beach was gone for the most part, but during low tide we had a nice little "pocket beach" down the stairs. We spent most of our time down in the pocket beach. When the weather is calm, the water is crystal clear. Even in November the water was warm!
5 Stars.

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

“Beautiful home in a beautiful location! Steps away from your own private swim in the turquoise ocean, and sunsets were gorgeous from the porch or from the lounge chairs with a sunset view next to the ocean! The home has some great features like screened - in porches and outdoor shower, as well as plenty of space, beautifully decorated. Remote location is accessible by car, but we recommend a four-wheel drive or jeep. Not able to walk to town readily, nor is there anything to walk to (stores, restaurants). Grocery stores nearby are stocked with mostly canned foods and are more like what those coming from the USA would think of as a very small convenience store, not a big grocery store. Also, keep in mind when visiting this island, that emergency medical help is not readily available, so that may be a consideration. Otherwise, Current Settlement is definitely private and not a crowded or touristy location at all. The house itself is lovely! ”
Rick B.As translated through "Google Translate" service:
A dream home, spacious, with attention to detail, overlooking the sea. To know that it is a bit far from everything, and that the services offered by the neighboring villages (lunch / dinner, shopping) are a bit modest: for the food, you need to have a certain spirit of adaptation. "Living" here was really nice for us.
Una casa da sogno, ampia, con cura dei dettagli, affacciata sul mare. Da sapere che è un po' lontano da tutto, e che i servizi offerti dai villaggi vicini (pranzo/cena, spesa) sono un po' modesti: per il vitto, occorre avere un certo spirito di adattamento. "Vivere" qui è stato per noi davvero bello
Andrea F.13June18: ...everything was great. Wonderful house that provided all amenities needed. Plenty of towels which was great. Only thing lacking is a dryer. Washed once and it was hard to get things to dry. Personally I would clean back a bit of the ocean foliage for a bit more view, but not too much as the privacy is great. Thanks again.
Kent H.20Jun18: This place was amazing! It has total privacy and allowed us to step back and reconnect with each other. The ocean looks like a swimming pool. Bring your snorkel set and enjoy! Pack bug spray with DEET. The non-DEET sprays didn't work for us. Note: You must be willing to cook some meals on this trip. Restaurants are few and far between. Grocery selection is limited and costly... Pack light on clothes. Nothing is dressy. Just wear a pair of flip flops, pack a couple swim suits and that's that
