Double Bay Vacation Rental house

My husband and I just returned from a week at Palms. It was just as pictured. The beach was beautiful and we only saw 8-10 people on it the entire week and those people were far off in the distance. If you are looking for solitude and you don't want to be where all the tourists are, this is the place. The locals were all very friendly and helpful. You can't drive far without seeing more beautiful beaches and gorgeous water. After just a day or two, we were already talking about returning. Loved it! Thanks for opening your home to the rest of us!

We have been coming to Eleuthera for a few years and have checked out most of the villas for rent from one end of the island to another. The Palms is a delightful place, spotlessly clean and very well appointed. For the price, there isn't a better equipped 1 brm villa on a better beach anywhere else in Eleuthera.

We spent 10 delightful days at the Palms and only wished we'd have stayed there the whole time during our month's stay on Eleuthera. It felt like home and Leigh Anne and family have thought of everything to make your stay there trouble free and truly memorable. There are dozens of books, DVD's, stereo system, a kitchen that would make any chef happy, comfortable furnishings and all the little things one might ever need from hair dyer to sun screen! There are plenty of big beach towels, special beach chairs, a cooler, portable umbrella, snorkels and fins. The BBQ was great too as we preferred to eat in many nights. Mixing Margaritas a snap with a great blender on hand. Life was Good.

The villa is very romantic and secluded and the beach, a walkers paradise. We seldom saw a soul around. Double Bay is a delightful central spot and while there are several villas in the area, the Palms has a huge property and we neither saw or heard any neighbours. It was heaven!

As for the negative comments from previous tennants, we stayed in the villa right after they did and we were flaberghasted . Eleuthera is a charming little island and as many say "Not for Every One -Thank Goodness we might add, that's what gives it it's charm. Anyone expecting to find everything the same as the USA might be disappointed. No MacDonalds, No big nightclubs, no fancy hotels, just friendly warm folk living there who are always polite and helpful. Just what we wanted a quiet romantic getaway where the biggest decision of the day was what beach to visit or where to fish. Even that wasn't difficult as the beach just yards from the door, was the best we found during our month on the island. There was no garbage - only the odd flotsom that washed ashore from a passing boat and sorry it's not a Club Med were the beach is raked by staff every day,

Anne & Clyde are delightful and extremely conscientious as property managers and take care of your every request.

No see ums are found throughout the islands- use bug spray and close up at night to avoid them. For fun rent a 4x4 but the villa road in was quite good by island standards.

We'll definately book the Palms again!

If I owned a property in paradise, this is what it would be. It is intimate and private and completely peaceful. The house is furnished with everything you need. Loved the wrap around porch and all of the sliding glass doors and shutters. The beach is natural and heart-breakingly beautiful. We spent hours at the beach reading under the shade of a palm tree, in the beach chairs that were thoughtfully provided. We could see every star in the sky and the Milky Way at night from our porch.
Clyde and Anne, the care-takers, were available if we needed them and the property was spotless. Thank you Leighann for making this house available for us.
