Paradise
Surrounded by turquoise blue waters you can only find in the Bahamas, Sayle Point House is truly a slice of paradise. The home is very private yet close to all amenities including Governors Harbour Airport, several restaurants, (Tippy’s, Rainbow Inn and Leo Rose were our favorites) grocery stores (Big Rock 5 mins away), an amazing bakery called Cravings and a ton natural attractions. (Queens Bath a must see)
The house is beautifully appointed with close attention made to detail. We wanted for nothing. Quality appliances and utensils made it easy and enjoyable to cook meals in.
Sayle Point House offers loads of activities to ensure fun is had by all. You have access to your own private beach complete with a tiki bar! Activities include a pool, volley ball net, corn hole, kayaks , books, games, fishing poles, snorkel gear and pool toys/floats. If relaxing and reading a book is your idea of a holiday, then swinging in the hammock as you listen to waves crashing against the coral walls is always an option.
All the rooms in the house are spacious, bright and breezy. You have panoramic views of the ocean from every window. There is a large comfy sofa and a big screen TV (Satalite/Internet has strong signal) in the living room attached to the kitchen. The linens are good quality, the beds cozy and there is A/C and ceiling fans in each room to keep you cool at night. Although the breeze from the ocean was lovely too.
Eleuthra is a gorgeous, largely unspoiled island that is easy to navigate as there is only one main road end to end. You will need to rent a car to travel around. You can catch a water taxi from Gun Point Marina, North Eleuthra (approx 40 mins from Sayle Point) to Harbour Island for the day, ($5 each way) From Harbour Island you can also catch a ferry to Spanish Wells.
This was truly a holiday to remember. Thank you to our gracious hosts for sharing their beautiful home. We will always remember our time in Eleuthra at Sayle Point House and hope to return one day soon!
