Vacation rentals with a fire pit in Eleuthera

Great location and amenities, had everything we needed, can't wait to visit again!

We really enjoyed our stay at Baha Mara. It was everything we had hoped for and more. The house itself is spacious and light-filled, well appointed and equipped, with lovely art and nice touches throughout. Comfortable beds and living room space, great kitchen for cooking, large porch for sitting out. We spent a lot of time relaxing on the day beds at water's edge, as well as exploring the tide line and in the water on the SUPs and with snorkels. This was our first visit to Eleuthera, and we found Baha Mara to be perfectly located to venture out to various villages, beaches, restaurants and grocery options not too far from the house. We discovered on our first day that the closest eastside beach, Islandia, is closed to the public pending a sale of the surrounding 466+ acres (!), so we explored a handful of the myriad sandy stretches up and down the coast. We only wished that we had more days to spend and that we had booked a day out on the boat with John/Big Mac Fishing. Next time!

From front-porch sitting and strolling around the village of Tarpum Bay for the 90-year-old grandparents to exploring and scuba diving for the parents and grandchildren, this place was perfect.The location, right on the shore but in a shaded place, was idyllic. You can swim right off the shore if you wear reef shoes to get over the coral. For the maintenance issues, Samuel Dorcent, the caretaker and go-to man, was very quick and responsive. On the morning our rental car would not start, he had his friend, the auto mechanic, there in ten minutes with a big battery charger to get us going. Samuel was also just an interesting person to get to know. He was always reachable on his cell phone. The only negative review we could find complained of bugs and the lack of air-conditioning. We found that the fans were more than adequate to keep us comfortable. Picardin and deet work fine against the bugs. This place is not the Disney Resort and that’s what we liked best. We’ll be back next year.

A HOME AWAY FROM HOME. The host Ms. Barbara is very helpful, communicative, and accommodating. The photos doesn’t give this cottage any justice! It’s super huge, clean, and well equipped with everything you may need during your stay. There is an amazing private beach steps away from the back porch. I would most definitely stay at this cottage if I was to visit southern Eleuthera again.

Very nice hosts. Always eager to please. If you need anything, just ask. Have them direct you to a nearby convenience store for anything you need, too. Beautiful island and surroundings.

Large one bedroom place, very clean and well equipped kitchen. We loved being right on the water for quick swims and just looking at the ocean. Huge bathroom with laundry and great water pressure (not fed from a cistern). 2 local restaurants and the best fresh foods market within a mile of the house. Has 2 trundle beds in the living room that would be great for kids. Also has lots of blow up beach toys and a cooler for taking food / beer to the beach. Deck has both sun and shade areas to sit in. We explored the whole island and found miles of empty beaches, we would definitely come back!

What a perfect place to reconnect with our family to celebrate a big birthday! We were all very comfortable physically and found the house and island to be spiritually healing. Dana & Denise were at their home next door and were very helpful and very lovely to meet and to share with. Horace was helpful and an excellent chef who made a most spectacular birthday dinner for us with locl lobster, rock crabs, grouper and conch!!! We spent time at the beach, at the tennis courts, diving from Harbour Island, & boating to see turtles, rays and pink beaches. A most blissful holiday in a beautiful location & home.

Amazing property with cool amenities. Very clean, cozy, and convenient. The host and property manager were great and really made the stay enjoyable! Highly recommended.
