May 11, 2025: Eleuthera Living!

Staying here made our mind up to come back. Awesome location and the folks of Current very nice. If staying here, I recommend going to north beach to see the Current Cut.

March 2nd, 2025: Hands down the best beach house I’ve ever stayed in! This place is absolutely perfect for 2-4 people, from the well-equipped house to the adorable and convenient pocket beach. All towels and linens are provided in abundance. The kitchen has oils, vinegars, and spices to supplement whatever you bring home from the market. The air conditioning at night was perfect. The road is rough but we had an old jalopy mini van and it was fine as long as you go slow. We were lucky in that we didn’t need to contact the property managers at all but we met Pedro briefly one morning when he came to check the generator, he was very nice. I can’t say enough good things about this place, I hope we’ll be able to return soon!

January 27th, 2025: And before I forget, your property - house, grounds, views, furnishings etc etc is just absolutely gorgeous. We are so very much enjoying ourselves. Your place is reminding my wife of Pebble Beach in Monterey.

November 23rd, 2024: We loved our stay at "The Getaway". It was very private and very clean. The house itself is remarkable. As many have said the pictures do not do it justice!! Other things worth mentioning are; the settlement of Current is extremely friendly welcoming; the property manager Karen and the facilities support Pedro were excellent and incredibly responsive; we hired a private boat, Captain James from Lower Boque, to take us sprear fishing and snorkeling, was awesome. So much more we could add. Definitely worth a repeat visit. Thanks for your place Tim!

November 14th, 2024:  We stayed 6 nights. The view from the back lanai was spectacular. The house is fully stocked with spices, cookware, towels and all you need. Be aware that the best restaurants are in Spanish Wells or Harbour Island, so cooking at home is a good option. There is pizza takeout in Lower Bogue on Thursday-Saturday at Tommy’s but check. The weekend barbeque around the corner from the bakery is very good. It is a great house to relax

May 23rd, 2024: Secluded Paradise If you want privacy this is the place awesome house views water and Pedro was there every time I called If you plan to stay I suggest you go to the bluff shopping center and get plenty of groceries for your stay eating out is not convenient on the island. The packet Tim will send you is very helpful it’s a little rough road for couple hundred yards to house just drive slow privacy and paradise is the two words that describe this awesome home.

May18th, 2024: Beautiful place. Was perfect for us and our one year old. We played at the private beach during low tide and was great for him to paddle. The property was private, fully stocked kitchen, had everything we needed! Just an FYI, there isn't much nearby. We cooked all our meals at the property. The closest restaurant was a 15/20 min drive and wasn't great. But the grocery store had everything we needed. The photos of this place don't do it justice. The house is wonderful and the beach/water is so beautiful. If you are looking for a private hideaway, off the beaten track, this is it. A car rental is a must. We explored the Sapphire Blue hole and Queens bath one day. Highly recommend this place.

December 20th, 2019: Wonderful, Beautiful, Peaceful Retreat away from the Usual!

Getaway is a unique chance to still experience the local hospitality, friendliness, and daily life of North Eleuthera. Along with an additional rent-able cottage, it offers an opportunity for larger groups to stay in this area. Tim, our Host, is a helpful, knowledgeable and great person to assist with planning your time on Eleuthera. He supplies a comprehensive packet of written information and willingly connected us to any other services we wanted. Getaway is well appointed for all basic things needed and on-site assistance from, Pedro or Karen is possible.  A car is necessary for the convenience of coming and going to grocery shop and visit the high points of the island. Daily walks along the beach or in the area or bicycle trips if preferred, visits to the local fishermen or the local (meaning the town of Current) store can get many of the daily supplies needed if you wish to minimize the use of a car. The beach in front of Getaway (only 50' away) has lost the large sand spread, but is wonderfully enjoyable with sand entrance to the water and rock ledge for beach chairs, campfires and gathering to watch the sunsets or just to 'hang-out' by the water. The beach area in front of Getaway offers easy, interesting snorkeling and an opportunity for an easy kayak trip in either direction from the property. On a windy day, it is an easy walk/bike ride to the opposite side of the island to have a more protected swim/walk or whatever - you can easily have the best choice each day you are there!! Sound like a wonderful place - it is!

We can tell it takes real care and a real concern for those who stay at Getaway. For which we applaud you, Tim. We've stayed at many houses in the Bahamas and in the Caribbean and we can say, without exaggeration, that this one was one of the best.

Everything one needs for a comfortable and tasteful stay, whether one week or many, is pleasurably provided. We loved the kayaks and were on them every morning on that great peaceful, immaculate sea. Thanks for all the entertainment facilities and the maps and island information. And let us just steer any future renters to a couple of real wonderful people who enhanced our stay beyond expectation. They are Phil Neily and Karen Knowles in Current. Phil has the boat and Karen does the care of the house. Both longtime citizens of the Settlement of Current, and both part of the reason for an enhanced stay at Getaway. Thank you Karen and Phil for your friendship and your talents.
