Overview & Photos
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.
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.

Kathy Fleming recommends this vacation rental.
We knew it would be a great vacation when we were immediately greeted with such beautiful tropical landscape as you begin your drive up to the property. The view from the cottage is amazing. We were extremely comfortable; the cottage was very clean and enough space for the 2 of us. We enjoyed our lunch every day on the screened in porch. There were 2 kayaks that are available for usage and we took advantage and used them everyday out in the calm peaceful cove. It was great to have the beach towels and beach

This place is simply wonderful, fantastic location, clean, in good condition and has everything you need and more from a holiday rental. Keith and Sharon (the owners) are lovely and very helpful. There are kayaks and snorkling gear provided and there is a private beach. The property is within 10 mins drive of shops and places to eat.
Why haven't you booked this already? It's perfect!

We had a lovely stay at Beside the Pointe! Keith and Sharron are wonderful hosts and have an extensive knowledge of the island. The cottage was in a great location for visiting different beaches every day and conveniently located near grocery stores and restaurants. The cottage was immaculate and very comfortable with everything you need. The screened-in porch overlooking their amazing view was a favorite spot for breakfast every morning followed by kayaking and snorkeling off their beach. We would definit

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!

From the day we booked, Pam at Eleuthera Vacation Rentals was so helpful and quick to respond to our questions and would send us extra documents that were informative.
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 gr

A great holiday in a stunning location overlooking the bay with steps leading down to a small private beach with loungers and kayaks.
The cottage has everything you need for two.
Sharon and Keith have planted a large wonderful garden on the property that is exciting and interesting to explore.
Thanks Sharon and Keith for sharing your wonderful home, we would love to return!

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

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

Jonathan Lashley recommends this vacation rental.
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.
Wow!

Laura Neri recommends this vacation rental.
It was a perfect cottage our only issue is that the listing did not 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.
