Privacy and stunning views for ultimate relaxation - truly paradise!

I just returned from a 4-night stay at Sayle Point House with two of my best friends. We wanted privacy and complete relaxation to soak up the sun and oceanfront views, while celebrating our 40th birthdays and over 20 years of friendship. We got EVERYTHING we wanted and more! I cannot count the number of times we exclaimed how surreal it was to be surrounded by such beauty. The house was lovely, clean and fully-equipped. The property was well-maintained and it’s obvious there was a lot of thought put into creating comfortable spaces to lounge in the sun and to take in the ocean views. The pool was an added bonus we enjoyed very much. We had an impromptu dance party on the deck which you can do when you have that much privacy and great outside speakers! We are thankful for Elvis and his patience and assistance with our questions and needs. We would highly recommend renting a car, we rented from Elliott at Big E’s. If you’re not used to driving on the left side, Eleuthera is a great place to try it as there is one main highway and no major intersections. We found delicious produce at Hearty Mow Farmland U-pick Farmstand, groceries at Triple TLC, and local Bahamian beer, Kalik Radler Mango and Sands Pink Radler, from a local liquor store in Hatchett Bay, a short drive from Rainbow Bay. We purchased high-quality liquor duty-free in the airport on our way - highly recommend! We ate out twice, once for dinner at Rainbow Inn on pizza night (pricey!) and once for breakfast at Cravings Bake Shop (Very reasonably priced). Both were very good! Plan to bring some Skin-so-Soft, or whatever you use for “no-see-ums”, which were our only complaint, if you can even call it a complaint. Pack some water shoes so you can walk out into the crystal clear water to see stingrays, crabs, sand dollars, and other sea creatures up close. I honestly could keep writing about our experience, but suffice it to say, I wholeheartedly recommend this property, and am already planning my next trip.

Thank you Christy, what a wonderful review. We are so thankful for guests like you who appreciate nature and everything it has to offer. I love that you noticed all the beautiful outside areas my husband has taken great pride and endless hours creating. I enjoy creating the house and making it super comfortable for our guests. Elvis our housewatcher and Gina the housecleaner all add to making Sayle Point House a true Home Away from home! We look forward to your return :)

Location location location

Perfect central Island location. Gorgeous home with acres of property. Private and peaceful. Loved listening to the waves outside our bed room sliding doors while falling asleep. We loved swimming, snorkeling, kayaking right outside our door. Great deck for sunbathing or reading. Small plunge pool perfect for an afternoon dip. Inside amenities and spacious rooms had everything we needed. Can't say enough great things about this home. Elvis the local contact was there for us if we had questions or needs. Central Island location was perfect for getting to places for dining and to explore what the island has to offer. The private beach out front and grounds with caribbean sea views from every room made this the ideal location and home for us as we came to Eleuthera for privacy, quiet, relaxation and warm weather after escaping the polar vortex and stress of work back home.

One of the best vacations we have ever had. We will return for sure if this treasure is available. My fear is that it will become so popular that we will not be able to rent it for a future trip to this island.

Laurie is an excellent host. We felt her attention to detail the minute we walked in the house.

Wish we were still there!

FABULOUS!

The house and the location can't be beat! We enjoyed every minute of our stay. When we rent a house again on Eleuthera, this will always be our choice!

Idyllic setting. A piece of paradise....

Had an amazing holiday in this delightful holiday home. Elvis was great and on hand. Beach and plunge pool were perfect. House had all mod cons and beds were comfortable. Beautiful island to explore and stunning beaches. Hope to revisit at some point.

The property is beautiful and comfortable. An amazing setting.

It was great to be able to have the sailboat so close. Minor things...we wished there had been a hairdryer. We were unable to find a “church key” in the kitchen. There were not back-ups for paper supplies (toilet paper). It was very hard to get things in and out of the dryer. Needed a small child! We found Elvis very helpful. My daughter and her family stayed an extra day - and we’re expected to vacate much earlier than they thought. The pool was a wonderful bonus! None of these minor things kept it from being a very positive experience. Thank you!

Thank you for a wonderful review! Our views are second to none to enjoy with a sunrise at your front door and a sunset at the back.

Our caretaker is to go over the house and supplies with the guest, if there is something he missed to say please feel free to ask. There is a hairdryer in the bathroom linen closet. I always let the guests know pre arrival about rental cars, cell phone service and paper supplies. Everything is imported here. We supply the guests with 2 new rolls in each bathroom and always encourage them to bring some with them. There is a grocery store 8 minutes away that also carries paper supplies.

When I was told about wanting the extra day on the original day of check out I agreed and informed you that I would accommodate you but there was a check in the next day and we needed time to clean the house properly for our next guests. We both agreed. Check out is 12, I believe you left at 11. Sorry for your inconvenience. You had a large group and we needed extra cleaning to be done.

Im so happy that you and your family got to enjoy the cove in front of the house and moor your boat there, what a treat! We loved having you as guests and will always strive to make our guests experiences as best as we can. Thank you for your helpful points.
