“Week in paradise” First time to the island and the vacation was great especially with the accommodations at the Pink Sand Cottage. Perfect for the two of us and loved the views from inside and outside the house of nothing but beach and water. I'm not sure how it is other times of the year but almost every day we were the only ones on the beach. Maybe just timing but it felt as though we were the only ones on the island at times and having the peace and quiet was much needed. Thanks to Ken and adele for a great week and hope to be back soon!

“Eleuthera Excellence” We were looking for an exceptional rental home on the water in the Caribbean, and we found it. Everything about Conch'd Out was delightful - the location, the space, the unique entertainment module (we all loved this, but especially the kids), the privacy, and the sports. Kayaks were provided, we snorkeled everyday, and we probably saw no more than a total of a dozen people over a ten day period on perhaps the most beautiful beach on Eleuthera. If you want the convenience of waking in the morning and walking out the door for a morning swim before breakfast - this is it. If you want some very nice open-air restaurants within a few minutes drive - this is it. If you want to be located in a community with a fantastic community event, the Friday Fish Fry - this is it. I own a condo in Bethany Beach, DE, and the value here in Eleuthera surpasses it. Of course, I can't hop in my car and drive here, but the easy and reasonably priced flight from Philly will make it easy for me and my family to return - which we will.

“Lovely vacation home!” My husband and I just had the most romantic, secluded, perfectly relaxing vacation while renting the Palmetto Sunrise Villa in Eleuthera this May 2013. The location was great for visiting Governor's Harbor, and a short 10-15 minute drive to several great places to eat (we ate out often at Tippy's and The Beachhouse). The homeowners have been friendly and helpful in every way possible to assist with our planning of activities, from flights into the island to exploring the beaches. We were most impressed with the large notebook made for guests and used the information in it every day. The book has detailed directions for finding one's way to the special beaches of Eleuthera (photos of landmarks along the way included), and up-to-date notes on who to talk to for scheduling tours, and recent details on local restaurants. The Palmetto Sunrise Villa is luxuriously furnished, completely well-equipped and decorated in a lovely manner with many tropical paintings and sea-motif arrangements of shells and sea fan. Everything was top notch and meticulously maintained. It is readily evident that the homeowners care deeply about keeping their villa in top condition and it is heartwarming that they are so open to sharing this beautiful island and its many special attractions with guests who are fortunate enough to choose to rent the Palmetto Sunrise for a vacation. One of our favorite activities was viewing the incredibly starry night skies. We also enjoyed daily walks both on the roads and along the beaches in both directions from the house. The breeze off the atlantic was always cool and refreshing. We walked to the nearest restaurant, at the Unique Resort and enjoyed having drinks there. They have a beautiful beach and great views from the restaurant. The best thing about our stay in Eleuthera was the harmony with nature, warm climate, friendly people, clear water and escape from crowded civilization to a much more leisurely pace.

“Pleasantly surprised” I didn't expect this house or the bay to be as nice given the price. We liked the view and amenities. The downstairs shower with one way glass looking out on to the bay was lovely. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. I would say that this house is ideal for a max of 6 adults.

“A special piece of Heaven on Earth!” This was our second year staying at the spectacular Heron Hill! My husband and I spent our honeymoon last year at Heron Hill and we returned this year. The house is very spacious with every amenity that you can possibly need. You have the best of both worlds with the Ocean only steps away as well as a beautiful pool! The grounds of the house are filled with beautiful flowers and palm trees. The home owners, the Murrays, are a pleasure to work with. The caretakers of the house are always available if anything is needed, but also respect your privacy. You are truly made to feel that you are home in your special corner of paradise.

“Highly recommended” The apartment was really nice - better than the photos suggest. We were very very close to the beautiful beach, which we had pretty much to ourselves every day. The apartment was also really clean, very comfortable and very quiet. Joan, Hilton and Elsie were also incredibly hospitable - they even baked us a loaf of bread - and gave us great recommendations of where to eat and what to do. We traveled around Eleuthera quite a bit, but Rainbow Bay was still our favorite. Would absolutely stay there again.
