Photos and Description of the Rainbow Bay vacation house rental 3 Bedrooms, 3 Bathrooms, Sleeps 6

You are ON THE WATER. Walk out your front door and down the private walkway into the Caribbean. Swim and snorkel over coral reefs that are home to over 10 species of colorful tropical fish. A short way out is a broad sandbar 3 to 5 feet deep that is excellent for swimming. Sip morning coffee on our dock as you watch the fish and see the sunrise paint morning clouds pink, purple, and gold. Enjoy breakfast at the gazebo dining table. Relax in the hammock in the heat of the day. Grill your evening meal on our shaded veranda while you catch the cooling breezes and watch the sunset. Paddle our 2 kayaks on Rainbow Cove. Ride our 4 bikes on miles of back roads along the scenic Caribbean and Atlantic coasts. Shallow and calm Rainbow Beach with tiki huts and picnic tables is a minute stroll away. It has great snorkeling along the jetty. We provide beach chairs, floats, and beach towels. Dolphin House offers inside and outside privacy and comfortable living.

Private and Secluded

GladWeWent Kingwood, Texas, USA
Review Submitted: August 15, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
Dolphin House is a great family house! Comfortable sleeping for 6; HUGE porch for watching the water and skies. Kitchen had lots of supplies and room to move around. Owners allow use of floats, snorkel gear, bikes and kayaks -- kids always had things to do. Rental cars are very expensive on the island, but consider it a necessity. Rainbow Bay beach is one of the smaller beaches on the island and you will want to explore the other beaches. Hidden Beach, on the Atlantic side, is a short walk/bike ride away. Others are quite far. Maps/directions/street signs on the island are non-existent, so print satellite photos to help you get there. We missed out on some of the island's features because we couldn't find them or didn't get an early enough start. Some beaches take hours to get to and some beach roads were impassable without a Jeep or other off-road vehicle. Off the main highway, most roads are not paved. Restaurants are expensive and did not have food on certain days (ran out). Plan on $$$ for groceries if you have teenagers. If you are looking for secluded quiet, this is the house for you. If you want people watching or services such as a bank (everything is cash only), groceries or local culture you will have to head south to Governor's Harbor (1/2 hour drive) or even more south than that. All in all, the water and the scenery of Eleuthera can't be beat and Dolphin House was a wonderful way to get away.

Everything and More Than I Expected

Chris-n-IL Carterville, IL
Review Submitted: May 20, 2008 Date of Stay: May 2008
The home was absoulutely wonderful, very clean, and preprared when we arrived. The caretaker, Brenda, does a great job and is very friendly. The pictures of the rental don't really do it justice. The view off the back veranda is absolutely amazing. They have everything you could need at the house, snorkeling gear, bicycles, coolers, everything to make your stay very enjoyable. The snorkeling from the provided path into the water was perfect. I would say that there are 40-60 fish right at waters edge. The house is definitely big enough for the six people that would stay there. Having the 3 bathrooms was a big plus. Overall, when I return to Eleuthera, I will definitely choose the Dolphin House.
