After much comparison and deliberation of properties, having never been to Eleuthera before, we settled on Touch of Heaven. We made the best choice! The property is exactly as described. It is spotless on the inside and what beautiful views from the deck. The house is equipped with everything you need, nice beach chairs, a cooler, floats, snorkel equipment, etc., not to mention the well-equipped kitchen. We ate out some, but also grilled burgers at the house. We ate at the Beach House for our anniversary (very good food and atmosphere - pricey, but all food on the island is), The Deck for burgers one night (can't beat the view of the Atlantic here and the food was awesome, although the owner was drunk, which we now know can be a regular occurrence so be prepared if you go there), and also tried Da Perk (had an eggplant meatball sandwich that was awesome, owners very kind, and very clean, nice little cafe to eat in with reasonable pricing). The location of the house is pretty central on the island, so we traveled from one end to the other exploring Harbor Island, as well as Lighthouse Beach. Lighthouse Beach was a last minute decision on our last day staying here and it was the most beautiful place on earth we had ever seen. The drive is do-able in an SUV-type vehicle or Jeep, although we did encounter a young couple there who had their small car stuck in the sand and some locals came to get them out, which took hours, so be careful where you park! We left early, took our time, and stayed the day with plenty of food and water in our cooler. Definitely see Lighthouse Beach if you're able. You won't regret it. We also walked the beach close to the house, but we spent most of our days at Ten Bay Beach. On our anniversary, we were literally the only people on that beach. It was so beautiful, clear, calm water, just like swimming in a saltwater pool at home, but with amazing tropical scenery and views! It was our favorite beach that was close to us. We also kayaked there and snorkeled a bit. Every night, we came back to Touch of Heaven, sat out on the deck (which was amazing because we never got bitten by bugs there and it really extended our days to be able to sit out at night), and we would just look at the stars in amazement at how many there were and how bright they were. The entire vacation was so special and a dream come true for us. Every day and night, we were in awe of the beauty of what God has created and blessed us with, much of which we never see.
