Beachfront Cottage with Spectacular Ocean Views TOP RATED

Nestled amongst the greenery above the turquoise waters of the Caribbean sits the beautiful cottage aptly named Beside The Pointe. The quietness is deafening, the ocean view in front of you is pure ecstasy, and the sunset embraces you as it disappears into the water.

Between Palmetto Point and Savannah Sound, a mile off the main highway thru a greenery-lined track road sits your tranquil paradise, a perfect hideaway for honeymooners.

A private beach and the Caribbean sea are right below you down a flight of steps.

The owners live next door if you need them, but you won't see them if you don't want to.

Food stores and restaurants are a few miles away, close, yet far enough away from your quietness. There is excellent new oceanfront restaurant in Savannah Sound, about eight minutes away by car, called Fishbone Beach Bar and Grill, which is open year-round.

Ten Bay Beach, a beautiful mile-long pristine beach, is just a mile away.

Governors Harbour, the main town on the island, is just 15 minutes by car from the property. Governors Harbour has grocery stores, restaurants, liquor stores, two banks with ATMs, a bakery, gift shops, a dive shop, and a medical clinic. It has a nice little collection of 19th century homes and churches overlooking a picturesque harbor. You can buy fresh fish and lobster every afternoon from fisherman at the town dock. Friday night Fish Fry in Governors Harbour is a street/beach party that brings together all the tourists and locals with food, drink, and dancing in the street. You won’t want to miss it.

Relax in central air comfort with DirectTV and WIFI. Enjoy the quietness and spectacular views.

We have 4 sets of snorkel gear in a variety of sizes, an assortment of hand fishing lines with gear, 2 single kayaks, beach chairs, beach umbrella, a cooler, outdoor shower and a gas grill. There's also a stackable washer and dryer. We just installed a brand new generator to keep the house running and our guests comfortable during power outages. There is a back-up water supply as well.

For stays longer than 10 nights you get 1 free weekly cleaning.

Paradise- Everything We Hoped For
There's nothing but wonderful things to say! The hosts were extremely kind and helpful. The place was clean and had everything we needed. The view is amazing, the sunning pad was sublime, and the private beach was simply perfection. Loved everything about this place and our stay here.

It is clear that the owners take pride in this property. The house and gardens were gorgeous, and you have the whole bay to yourself to kayak, snorkel, swim and explore. We also loved the proximity to Ten Bay. We highly recommend taking a trip here.

What a stunning location.
Sharon and Keith have provided an excellent retreat in the most beautiful location. Sit over looking the bay for breakfast or an evening drink. Steps lead down to the small private beach with loungers and kayaks. The wonderful and interesting gardens are a treat to wander through. Thanks Sharon and Keith for a great holiday, we would both love to return!

Even Better than expected!
Having seen the images and read the reviews we knew we were going somewhere nice but none of that does this place justice. It is super clean inside the cottage with everything we needed for our almost 2 weeks stay and we had the whole beach/bay to ourselves! The view is truly amazing and the water is shallow very far out so it was great for walking in and swimming (with water shoes for the rocky shore). Screened in porch is great! The owners of the property that live right next door are so friendly and kind. They have put much work into the upkeep of their place and gardens to make this feel like home away from home for the guests. They were very helpful and informative whenever we had questions or wanted their recommendations of what was close by. I loved the lush bath towels and great set of pots and pans for preparing our own meals. Those were some things that were above and beyond what was expected at a vacation rental cottage. :) Thanks again for a great vacation!

A little piece of paradise
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Absolute perfection!! My husband and I could not have been more happy and relaxed as we were at Keith and Sharon's Beside the Pointe cottage. We were blessed with exquisite views and snorkeling on our private beach. This cottage has more than we could've asked for. All of our questions were answered quickly and the property owners went way out of their way to ensure our comfort, offer suggestions, provide us with daily goodies and became special friends. We cannot wait to return to our piece of paradise. We truly cannot say enough wonderful things. We did almost all of our cooking in, utilized laundry machines, and was so very comfortable

Splendid Beachfront Cottage for Two!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My husband and I stayed 7 days at Beside the Pointe in late August 2024. We have made numerous trips to Eleuthera, and this was by far the best vacation yet. We were searching for a private getaway, and this house was perfect. I was concerned about the owners being right next door; however, Sharon and Keith were terrific hosts and made us feel completely at home. They were there to assist with questions and valuable tips; otherwise, we never saw them. Sharon's mangoes are delicious!The views of the Caribbean from the property are breathtaking, but the pictures on the website do not do it justice. The cottage is in perfect order and extremely clean, with everything you need for a comfortable stay. We especially enjoyed sitting outside on the screened porch and enjoying our meals without fighting the mosquitos!We spent most of our days there on the private beach. The path to the beach is easy to navigate, but water shoes are a must. There is plenty of sand and lovely shallow waters for swimming and floating. To the right, there is fantastic snorkeling along the coral. We saw an array of beautiful fish and a few curious sting rays. After playing in the water all day, we sat on the beach chairs and soaked up the stunning views of the Caribbean. Ten Bay Beach is one of our favorite beaches, only a mile from the property. Island Farms is also nearby. It is a must for fresh fruits, vegetables, homemade breads, and meat. We stocked up on our way in and prepared many tasty dishes. Buccaneer and La Bougainvillea are excellent dining options in the area. If you arrive at North Eleuthera Airport, stop at Delish Lifestyle in James Cistern. They have lovely food and drinks, and the owners are welcoming and unforgettable.Our stay this year was nothing short of perfect. We are grateful to Pam for always helping us plan an unforgettable vacation and to Sharon and Keith for being the perfect hosts. This home was exactly what we needed for a rejuvenating exp

A Dream Location
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Arriving in the pouring rain to a primitive airport was not a great beginning for our long anticipated vacation.When we arrived at our location of Beside the Pointe that all turned around. Rarely do we find a place that lives up to the promotional pictures but this exceeded them by quite a bit! We enjoyed this place so much that we spent most of our time here even though we traveled and saw various sights and beaches on the Island. Ten Bay beach was our second favorite spot, minutes away. Found a pair of Manatees ghosting along - which initially scared the **** out of me before I realized what they were!As far as restaurants go Buccaneer's was the one we tried and found pretty good. Try their Conch fritters, yum! Cost Cutters 5 minutes South was best for groceries.Keith and Sharon were terrific hosts. Helpful, gracious and super friendly with wonderful tips and extreme knowledge of the island and people. Their property is almost self sustaining as they have so much produce growing on their land.The beach is far more than shown in photos - there is no one in sight for all of Savannah Sound! Snorkeling is great and kayaks on site to use. Made for taking pics and even used a Drone for amazing footage.This was a wonderful vacation and we plan to return to this Cottage in the future!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This property is incredible. When we were researching a place to stay on Eleuthera, we came across Beside the Pointe. The good reviews and pictures sold us and we booked our stay. However, we were not prepared for the view as we drove our vehicle to top of the drive beside the cottage. It is INCREDIBLE! Pictures do not capture the beauty at Beside the Pointe. Keith & Sharon have done an incredible job with their property. Every day held a different sky, different waters & a different sunset. There is so much beauty to behold in their cove. We really enjoyed the kayaks and our favorite time of the day on the water was early morning. It was crystal clear and still. Felt as if we were paddling on glass. The location of the cottage was a perfect jumping off point to explore both ends of the island. It also had everything we needed to enjoy a 3 wk stay and was spotless when we arrived. Keith & Sharon were so kind and knowledgeable about the island and always willing to help with anything we might need. Top notch folks. I would stay here time & time again.

Post Covid Holiday!!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: It was a perfect cottage our only issue is that the listing didn’t really express that the owners are right next door. So not quite as private as we like. In saying that, they were a wonderful couple and certainly respected our privacy. We hope we have made friends for life with them. So the only reason we won’t rent again is our desire for seclusion and prefer beach on Atlantic coast.

Outstanding Honeymoon Vacation!
We couldn't have asked for a better location, experience, or hosts for our week long honeymoon. Our hosts, Keith and Sharon, were friendly, helpful, and added to a very pleasant experience. They even shared avocados from their garden! Eleuthera is just as remote as we thought it would be, but it was a lot of fun to explore and experience. Words of wisdom... International flights out of Miami close out THIRTY MINUTES prior to departure time. Our incoming flight from Dallas was a little late due to mechanical issues, but we got to the Eleuthera gate about 18 minutes prior to departure time and the flight had already been closed out. So, if you're flying into Eleuthera from Miami - make sure you get to the gate well enough in advance in order to not miss your flight. Be prepared for the "no see ums"... We thought, "Oh, no big deal" - DO NOT MAKE THIS MISTAKE! The no see ums will EAT YOU ALIVE! My wife was bitten quite a bit on her legs the first night at dinner and she still had marks and sores on her legs well after we were back in the states. My advice - BUG SPRAY, BUG SPRAY, BUG SPRAY!!! When you think you're covered, use a little bit more! But... other than those two lessons learned - this was an outstanding vacation. I've stayed in a number of VRBO rentals and NONE of them were as great as Beside the Pointe. Great communication stateside with the property managers prior to our departure and I can't say more about the positive experience with Keith and Sharon while staying at Beside the Pointe. We can't wait to go back!!!
