Overview & Photos

Gallery

A stay in Sand Dollar at Ten Bay Beach is a true gift of the Caribbean.  From the moment one walks through the stained glass front door, one is immersed in a panoramic view of stunning Ten Bay Beach.  Outdoor features include our vast teak deck which overlooks the turquoise Caribbean Sea. There is a customized barbecue, many lounge chairs, a dining table and a bar around the palm tree which is perfect for sipping tropical drinks. There is also a running bar along the whole deck facing the water which is perfect for sliding a chair under and slowly drinking a morning coffee while watching schools of fish below.  Below the deck there are two double kayaks for exploring Ten Bay.

The living room during the day is bathed by sunlight streaming in from several sliding doors offering amazing views.  Stretch out on the comfy sofas and enjoy watching TV or quiet time reading a book.  There is an additional lounge room with a large table for games and couch for relaxation.  Yoga mats are available for use indoor or on the deck.  

Prepare delicious meals in the bright and sunny kitchen with an incredible array of appliances such as a highly sophisticated coffee machine and panini, bread, rice and waffle makers.  Enjoy sitting in the quiet nook for two by the window or at the dining table that can easily seat 6-8 people.  

Each of the four bedrooms is unique, comfy and with native Bahamian art pieces.  The master bedroom with a king size bed is sequestered in the back of the house with an incredible view of the beach and an en-suite bathroom.  Relax on the gorgeous sofa as an option.  The second bedroom has a queen size bed with a wall of windows to enjoy the view of the beach with en-suite bathroom.  A chic smaller bedroom with a full size bed has a beautiful en-suite bathroom with a walk in shower.  The fourth bedroom is spacious with an amazing view of the beach.  Guests may choose either a king size bed or two twin beds.  Directly across the hall is a bathroom with walk in shower.  

Enjoy the luxury of the large capacity washer and dryer with an area to hang and fold laundry.  

Amenities include back-up generator, AC throughout, super-fast Starlink WIFI, TV with Apple TV box, games, Yoga mats, Ballet Barre, washer/dryer, charcoal grill, and two double sea kayaks!

The town of Savannah Sound, 5 minutes from the property, has a good grocery store, Midway Cost Cutters, and an excellent oceanfront restaurant, Fishbone Grill.  The town of Palmetto Point, less than 10 minutes from the house, has several smaller stores and a good restaurant.   The town of Governors Harbour, the main town on the island, just 15 minutes by car from the property, 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.  

Sand Dollar is a beautiful haven that is sure to delight.

Lovely vacation

Megan Adcock recommends this vacation rental.

Sand dollar was a spacious home on the sand and rocks on Ten Bay beach. The house was well suited for our family and grandparents…plenty of room to spread out. And almost every room had a gorgeous view. Excellent laundry facilities and kitchen stocked with all necessary cookware. The home is comfortable. The views, beach, and water are spectacular. Kristen and Vanessa were very helpful. They answered all of our questions and gave me tips that put me at ease when planning excursions.


Well-appointed house, perfect location

Sand Dollar is perfectly located on Ten Bay: you can walk out directly onto the beach and you have a view of the entire area. The bedrooms and bathrooms are large, clean, and have everything you need. The seating areas inside and outside are large enough for big groups to be comfortable. The kitchen has everything you need to cook in and the dishwasher is a great perk, as are the washer/dryer. It's an easy 10 mins to the Midway Cost Cutter, or ~15 mins to Gov Harbour. Vanessa the caretaker was fantastic!

We stayed at Sandollar over Christmas and it was spectacular. Vanessa the house manager was an unbelievable resource and helped with everything from transportation to finding a clinic when my son got sick.

Rob Drynan recommends this vacation rental.

The house hangs over the beach. Its incredible. The bay is amazing. The house itself is big and spacious., but tired. We had two families of 4 staying there. The whole house could use a refresh. It feels like the home hasn’t been updated in about 20 years. I had also hoped that there would be a bit more in the way of supplies like toilet paper, soap, shampoo, water, beach chairs, etc. They supply the bare minimum. Having said that, the place is spacious and the location is incredible.
Owner Response:
Please understand the home is constantly being repaired and updated with Bahamian workmanship and style. The saltwater from the proximity of the ocean and the intense sunlight create a continuous need for updating and remodeling.
Thank you for notifying our house manager about the mattress firmness.  Firmness of the mattress is an individual’s preference and we have not had this complaint previously. Within a few hours of voicing your concern, our manager came to the home and ameliorated this issue.  We will now have additional layers of softness for the bed available for our future guests if desired.

The house is full of windows providing views of the Caribbean allowing lots of sunshine to brighten each room.  Each room has been updated over the years focusing on the views and having a spark of Bahamian charm. Some of the most recent additions include:
A new refrigerator, high end gas stove, one and half oven, new washer and dryer, a whole house 40KW generator, WiFi 6 Deco system, Starlink with TV and movie channels, karaoke machine, yoga mats, beach balls, gaming monitor and numerous workstations for those who work remotely.

While we understand there were some supplies you would have liked to have on your arrival, we list in our welcome letter what is provided in the home.  There is a grocery store within a couple of miles from the home opened 7 days a week where guests can purchase the specific soaps and detergents they prefer.

Ten Bay was a great home base for exploring Eleuthera. Lovely sunsets. Kayaking and snorkeling were highlights! Property was well maintained and clean- kitchen was well appointed with appliances, cookware, and dishes for our gathering. Generator was a plus! Would definitely recommend!

Ashley Huls recommends this vacation rental.

The Sand Dollar had everything we needed for our stay. Kristin and Vanessa were wonderful to work with! The views were amazing and being able to just walk right down to the beach was so convenient.
Our only recommendation would be to consider a generator. We had several power outages throughout our stay and it would’ve been nice to have.
Otherwise we really enjoyed our time there and look forward to coming back!


Awesome House!

Michael Clausen recommends this vacation rental.

The sand dollar is a large house situated on one of the best beaches of the Caribbean side of the island. It’s the only house with walk out beach access to 10 bay beach. We loved everything about the house except.... The water situation. The houses water source is its own cistern. We were constantly worried about running out of water and needing to have more trucked in. The property manager facilitated everything but it was still a concern. She was very responsive.

Sand Dollar and the Eleuthera Rentals group were both amazing! The pictures dont do the house justice. Its beautiful, has amazing beach front access, and plenty of room for everyone.

Christopher Heyer recommends this vacation rental.

Loved this rental. The house is enormous. We were a family of 6 and everyone had plenty of room to spread out and also to come together for meals, deck fun and games. The snorkeling out around the rocky cliffs is really amazing and team with life (including turtles and rays). Vanessa was so helpful as a caretaker and ensured we had everything we needed. Will be going again!


Great Family Rental

Eric Abrams recommends this vacation rental.

This is our second time renting this house. The house was a great fit for us, with plenty of seating on the deck, plenty of beds and baths. Low tide is amazing for toddlers:) Having the kayaks, water gear, and direct beach access was a big bonus. Thanks for a great family getaway.


Spectacular view

Anne Gokey recommends this vacation rental.

This house is absolutely perfect! We stayed in July 2023 and had a wonderful stay. Our group ranged from age 11-73, everyone loved the house and Ten Bay. Vanessa was a huge help to us while we were there, and worked overtime to fix any issues we had! We would stay here again as you can’t compare the location, beach and water. The house is very large, comfortable beds and the beach is pristine. You can snorkel to the left of the property and take the kayaks out on the water. Would love to see screens
