Private Beachfront Getaway – Pure Relaxation
We really enjoyed our stay at this property. The property is exactly as the pictures depict, beautiful! We had the beach completely to ourselves. The property manager Fred stays next door and was very responsive and helpful. The rental was clean and had everything we needed. We felt safe as this is located on the non touristy side of the island. My only recommendation is that they get an umbrella for shade when relaxing on the beach. We would definitely stay here again!

Cannon Fire, Current Cut, Romantic Getaway
11 / 10 host. Very friendly and responsive. Very lowkey location that felt private. Great views from the deck. The beach gear and kitchen was very nice to have as well.

Azure Vista Villa - Sea view 7-min walk to beach
Let me start by saying Anton's place is amazing. We traveled with a group of 8 and it was more than enough room. My favorite part was sitting on the deck in the evenings, listening to music and watching the sunset over the ocean. The pool was amazing and the grounds were immaculate. The house had all the amenities we needed including beach chairs and canoes. Look no further, this is definitely the spot for rest and relaxation. We will definitely visit again.

Beachside Escape~Ocean Front~Steps To The Beach
Jaqueline and Brian are the BEST HOSTS EVER! We loved our stay. Jaqueline and Brian have thought of every single detail! I love the little bowls for your jewelry on the bedside tables!!! The towels and bathrobes are luxurious, the pillows are perfect for us! The beach towels are so pretty and every single detail was so appreciated. We love Martha too! We needed more propane as we cooked outside for I think 4 evenings...sure enough Martha with the help of hubby had the propane tank installed the next day!!!! Thank you for everything! We would love to come back next year!!!! Hilary and Mark

Sapphire Beach Cottage - A Romantic Getaway
We were looking for a quiet, private escape for a long weekend and this place is a slice of paradise. We swam and snorkeled right off the beach and were able to see all kinds of sea life! When we weren’t in the water we were relaxing in the sun and shade. The house was sparkling clean, and very comfortable. James was helpful and attentive, checking in often and making sure we had everything we needed. He even hooked us up with getting some fish from local fishermen our first night! This was our fourth time to this part of Eleuthera, and we will definitely be back to stay here.

French 75 Cottage (Pool and Beach)
This place was AMAZING! The location is absolutely perfect! There are tons of great restaurant spots within walking distance! The Social House was our favorite. Cable beach (which you can pretty much throw a rock and hit) was stunning. Some of the clearest blue waters I’ve ever seen. The room itself was really nice and secluded for privacy. We enjoyed the pool out back as well and always felt safe! Hosts were extremely responsive and helpful with questions and everything they recommended was 5 stars incredible! One of the best trips I’ve ever been on!

Ocean Front Home, Banks Road, Governor’s Harbour
This was a last minute Anniversary trip. The cottage, as I like to describe it was amazing. From the stunning sunrises as you are waking to the sounds of the waves in the evenings. Noreen has thought of everything. The amenities are boundless. Anything you need is right there from glass and dinnerware, to snorkel gear, beach chairs, towels, etc. The location is remote, but you are just down the road from French Leave Beach, one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. The bedding was by far the most comforatable we have experienced. This is the most romantic spot!!

Breathtaking seaside vista, secluded escape
We stayed at Janet's place for a week. She was responsive and her place was quiet and remote. The weather was not the greatest when we were there and so the water was a little rough some days. Not Janets fault. When the weather was good, the water was calm, blue and inviting. Janet's house is well stocked and has almost everything you can think of in terms of beach gear and other things that don't typically come with an air bnb. The beach in front of the house had a little bit or trash and seaweed. We also did not see a whole lot of sea life in the water other than a few small fish, a few starfish and two conch. Overall, for the price, location, host communication and beach front property you can't beat Janet's place. The area was off the beaten path but we all felt safe. It was about 15 drive to restaurants and grocery stores. The standout feature was the front covered patio. Small issues with getting the front door locked and the Wifi, but nothing major. Great AC in all rooms.
Apartments in The Bahamas

Contemporary Upstairs 2BR 2BA Bayfront Apartment
This is a great place in Governor's harbor to explore the island. The apartment is clean and even had the generator running when power to the entire central island went out!

Dinon's Eden:Cozy, quaint 1 bed studio,Cable Beach
Had a great stay 👍🏾

As seen on HGTV's Bahamas Life! Perfect escape!
This experience was much better than we have had staying in Air BnB properties. Kyrene literally thought of everything we could need and had it available for us. The condo was clean, private, and well organized. The area was quiet and the pool outside was clean and so nice! We had a power outage the last night we were there, and Kyrene kept us updated on the situation. We loved staying here and if u could give it 6 stars, I would!

Ocean views and pool in paradise!
Sandra and Philip were very friendly and their home was perfect for our family of 5. The pool was clean and was the perfect place to relax after a long day in the sun. Their pup was an added bonus! Would whole heartedly recommend anyone with a family to stay.

Quiet Beach Retreat. Nestled in tropical garden.
Absolutely wonderful stay at Lucia’s place. Great communication and listing just as described. Lucia is an incredibly personable host and her property has the perfect local vibe for a stay in beautiful Spanish Wells. We really enjoyed her resident sweet dogs and cats as well! The porch is a wonderful place to sip morning coffee while enjoying a garden view. The tropical landscape of her property is glorious. We loved finding hermit crabs and watching the hummingbirds. The beach is a short 3 minute walk away. Cannot say enough about our fabulous stay.

Boho-Baha 2Br Retreat w/ Pool Near Airport
I am in Nassau every few months visiting my husband and we always book with Marquin and Naija. This location is definitely worth every penny and more. Very peaceful and private. 10 out of 10 recomend!😊

Bimini Nest Cozy Studio, Steps from the Beach
We had an amazing stay at this Airbnb in Bimini! The host was incredibly responsive and helpful — always available and attentive to anything we needed. The apartment was well-equipped, comfortable, and perfectly located. One of the highlights was the private beach just a 2-minute walk away, where we were able to snorkel and see beautiful fish. We truly enjoyed our time here and would absolutely recommend it to anyone visiting Bimini!

Beautiful 3BR. Steps from beach, dining & Baha Mar
Lovely home, near Cable Beach and restaurants and grocery store. Hosts were amazing and friendly. Highly recommend.

Tim is great and accommodating. He is a very good host! The property is great. The beach is beautiful!

*New* Oceanfront, Romantic, Water Access, Private
We had a wonderful stay at their place! Very nice, clean and comfortable, with a great view. The kitchen had everything we needed and the large side by side refrigerator was an added bonus for us. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom was very nice with great water pressure in the shower. The beach chairs were like brand new and comfy. They were so helpful and thorough and responded promptly to my many questions or concerns. I appreciated their recommendations about everything island. We really enjoyed watching two younger turtles that hung out front during our stay. We would definitely stay there again. Kim & Mark

Gated Apt|5 Mins Walk to Beach|BahaMar|Cable Beach
This AirBnB is extremely good value for money -- it's beautifully maintained, full of every imaginable amenity, and located a few minute's walk from a wonderful beach. But the thing that really makes it the best ever is Cleopatra, who I think might be a literal angel. I had a problem with my travel documents so was delayed, and she met my husband and toddler, made sure they were sorted out with diapers and other things they needed, and took care of us all for the remainder of the trip, going absolutely above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed to make it a perfect vacation. I've had some wonderful hosts via this app but she's really extraordinary. If you want to avoid the resort experience and actually feel like you're in the Bahamas, her place is perfect. The kitchen worked well for light cooking, there were toys and games for the kid as well as a fantastic crib and high chair, and the bed was incredibly comfortable and luxurious. There are easy buses to get downtown.

Island Charm (lower unit) w/ pool & treehouse
Our stay at Island Charm was truly wonderful. It was our first time visiting the Bahamas, and our only regret is that we didn’t stay longer than a week. The location was incredibly convenient—just a short distance from the airport. The room was spotless and well-stocked with all the essentials, including towels, toiletries, and more. Outside, a spacious pool surrounded by lush tropical trees added to the serene and relaxing atmosphere. The hosts were exceptional—checking in daily to see if we needed anything and offering fantastic recommendations for sightseeing and local experiences.

*CAR INCLUDED*Ocean View Condo with Pool
Extremely recommended! really responsive and kind hosts. very Cosy place and provides everything above and beyond. Would highly recommend including the car as it would be difficult to travel around the island otherwise. Love beach is great and nearby.

Luxury Ocean Front with POOL *Rainbow Charm*
Our family of 4 had an amazing stay at Rainbow Charm. Our 2 teenagers loved the pool, jumping off the rocks, the hammocks. We have been to Eleuthera 5 times and this is our fav rental when bringing the kids ! The location is great for both north and south beaches/restaurants. We felt safe ( as usual in Eleuthera ) and Chris really knows what guests want at a vacation rental. We didn’t need to reach out to David the caretaker but we did meet him at Mel’s Snack Shack and he’s lovely! We are rebooking the home for our fall trip!

*CAR INCLUDED*Stylish Oceanfront Suite with Pool
I had a wonderful stay here. The place was quiet, peaceful, and had beautiful views—exactly what I needed to relax and recharge. Everything was as described, and the overall atmosphere made it easy to unwind. I would definitely stay here again.

Paradise at Sunset, Current, Eleuthera
Just got back from our second stay at this amazing property. We loved it so much last year we couldn’t help but come again! The photos are great but don’t do it justice. Seeing it in person I was blown away. The amenities and the view make this place super special. We love to explore the surrounding areas during the day and relax at “home” in the late afternoon and evenings. Great place for a morning coffee and even better place for a sunset meal. If you are fortunate enough and have the opportunity to stay at this property… DO NOT HESITATE!! For reference, it was myself, my husband and three teenagers for the week. We all loved it just the same!
Your guide to The Bahamas
All About The Bahamas
Situated about 50 miles off the coast of Florida in the Caribbean Sea, the islands of the Bahamas stretch for hundreds of miles across 700 islands and 2,000 cays. The largest island, New Providence, is home to the country’s capital of Nassau. Along with white-sand beaches that meet turquoise waters, Nassau also has historic buildings, such as a cathedral that was built in 1841. Additionally, you can discover artwork at the National Gallery of The Bahamas, or visit Arawak Cay to try local delicacies like fried fish or a Goombay Smash cocktail. Paradise Island is linked to New Providence by two bridges, and regularly draws travelers to its oceanfront golf course.
For those who enjoy a quieter island, Eleuthera is popular for its New England-style clapboard houses, clear-water beaches, and extensive cave and cavern system. It’s 110 miles long and only a mile wide, and easy to access by plane or boat. Nearby Harbour Island is home to a sprawling pink-sand beach, whose rose-colored hue is thanks to the red shells of microscopic sea creatures.
The best time to stay in a vacation rental in The Bahamas
While the weather in the Bahamas is perfect year round, it does tend to rain in late summer and fall, which aligns with hurricane season from June through October. Summers are warm and humid but offer great conditions for enjoying the beach and water-based activities. The months of December through April are the most popular time to book houses for rent in the Bahamas, as there is generally little rain, and the weather is warm. The most popular event of the year is Junkanoo, which takes place every Boxing Day (December 26) and New Year’s Day. This spectacular event features a colorful parade that includes people in elaborate costumes dancing to the music of drums and horns.
Top things to do in The Bahamas
The Exumas
Beach lovers looking for white sand, calm currents, and crystal-clear water should visit the Exumas. This chain of 365 islands is divided into Great Exuma, Little Exuma, and the Exuma Cays. The pristine beaches here aren’t the only thing that draws travelers to the shores: the area is home to a group of friendly native pigs that you may spot swimming on an uninhabited cay dubbed Pig Beach.
Inagua National Park
This nearly 200,000-acre park on Great Inagua is known as a birder’s paradise and has been designated a wetland of international importance. It is home to the world’s largest breeding colony of West Indian flamingos. There are many other animals to witness, including the native Bahama parrot, tricolored herons, egrets, and burrowing owls. Wild donkeys also live in the mangroves.
Lucayan National Park
Rent a kayak and explore the 40-acre Lucayan National Park on Grand Bahama. This park is known for its caves, which are part of one of the world’s longest underwater limestone cave systems. The park is also home to mangrove, pine, and palm trees. You can visit Gold Rock Beach here, which was used as a setting in a popular series of pirate movies.
