2nd Honeymoon Stay

Desert Rose was terrific from start to finish. The cozy house sits atop a beautifully turquois piece of the Atlantic ocean. Perfect for what we wanted...to simply relax and be in the surroundings of a largely untrafficed island. Given the central location of the property on Eluthera we traveled the island from top to bottom and enjoyed all of our adventuring and dining. Dont hesitate to book this sweet spot for a romantic, private getaway! Wed love to return. Thank you!

Paradise

This is our first time renting a house right on the beach after visiting Eleuthera every year since 2013. Desert Rose was perfect. Even though we ate out every night, it has every imaginable item you need for cooking and grilling at home. The beach was perfect ~ so breathtaking. The photos don't do it justice. This is the first year we never ventured out to any of the other beaches for snorkeling. We used to go to Ten Bay or Gaulding Cay for a snorkel. Not this year. Even on the windy days, we stayed right on our beach and boogie boarded or body surfed like two kids, or simply just went for our walks up and down the beautiful stretch of beach. We hardly saw anyone else during our two-week stay. Barbara was great. She answered all my silly questions when I had asked about the reefs in front. I did muster up enough courage to snorkel them. Mrs. Williams was great as well. We didn't need to reach out to her after our initial meeting. I do suggest trying Unique Village for dinner. It's off the beaten path further south and you need GPS for directions, but the food that Chef Chris prepares is delicious. Buccaneer is also one of our favorites. Potlatch opened up while we were there but never got the chance to try it. I can't wait to come back next year!

Desert Rose Eleuthera

We had a lovely stay at this wonderful house right on the ocean. The view was stunning. The house had everything you could need and both the caretaker and owner were very responsive. It was really nice to have a generator because the power has gone out for periods both times we have visited the island. Eleuthera is one of our favorite Islands with amazingly beautiful beaches that are never crowded. The locals are so welcoming and kind. I highly recommend the a visit and the location of this beach front home is close to restaurants and shops. We had such a great experience that we already booked another trip to Eleuthera with this owner.

Property is amazing! If you’re seeking solitude you can find it here. We spent 7 days and didn’t see people on the beach at the house. There is literally endless empty beaches on this island. I would say that dining is pretty expensive and limited, as is grocery shopping. Other than that, it’s a dream.

If there was ever a place that you could absolutely relax among the most beautiful ocean and mostly deserted beach, this is the place. Every time you look out at the crystal clear green ocean, you want to take another picture. The location is in mid-island so close to numerous very good restaurants, I only wish some were closer to our home in Pa. Can't wait to get back

Best Island Ever!

The Island is wonderful, but the property is vey beautiful, private and pristine. There an issue with a bridge leading to the property upon our arrival. The community stepped up and gave us a place to hang out as well as taking many people across the water around the bridge. The property manager was so understanding and sweet even though we were almost four hours late! The ocean was turquoise and silky very swimable. Fantastic! All of it. Food is very expensive so if you're able to, pack some!!

Great property!

It was a wonderful location and the home itself was also nice, great deck! The beach was beautiful. I wasn’t aware that I needed to bring things like toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap, trash bags and things of that nature. However, I probably should have asked and all of those things are available in a short drive.

We were having a very bad experience with another rental site and had to find a new place fast. Barbara, Winnie, and James saved us with our last minute booking. The house and property is absolutely gorgeous. Not enough words or even pictures can describe this property. We end up getting married right on the beach at the property. The property is so secluded. I’ve seen only 3 different ppl during our 8 night stay. Thank you Barbara for your wonderful gift. Thank you James for being our witness in our wedding. Thank you Winnie for wisdom and guidance. We will definitely be back. You guys and the house had made/completed our trip. XOXO

Great Vacation Home

This is the perfect spot to experience Eleuthera. The home has everything you need. It seems like you have the whole Island to your self...virtually no one sharing the miles long beach. The kitchen is well equipped. The Island Farm is nearby to supply delicious produce for an island cooked meal. Plenty of good restaurants nearby for excellent local Bahamian fare. To get a true Carribbean experience spend a week or more at the Desert Rose and fall in love with Eleuthera. You will not want to leave, and will vow to return.

This is a slice of paradise… a gorgeous, clean, private pink sand beach surrounded by palm trees and (yes, surprisingly) pine trees. We spent as many minutes as possible at the tiki hut being lulled by the waves and mesmerized by the shades of turquoise. The house is well appointed, comfortable and has a monster AC in the bedroom. If we visit Eleuthera again we would look forward to returning to desert rose.

Location was first class- beautiful every hour of the day- signage was lacking but the octagonal roof showed clearly on GPS. Cannot overstate how vicious the sand flies are tho- OMG! Also was not prepared for the meal costs- groceries are hard to find and expensive- eating out is about double New York City pricing but was always well done- we enjoyed every meal, just spent twice what we had planned- our own ignorance.

A Slice of Paradise

The property is everything one would want in terms of cleanliness and tasteful decor. The owners and the manager of the residence were incredibly efficient and hospitable. The house itself is on an enchanting beach and has a location and view that allows for solitude, rejuvenation of one's spirit, and beauty. It is ideally located: far enough from touristy crowds and close enough for a night out or for gathering grocery and provisions. We definitely plan on returning many times to this 'slice of paradise' and have been raving about this gem of a holiday retreat to all our friends.

Fantastic private beach

We absolutely loved staying at the Desert Rose property. The spacing between properties means you will see few, if any, other people on the absolutely beautiful beach. The central Eleuthera location makes it easy to travel to either end of the island. And there are so many amenities- good internet connection and satellite tv, deck surrounding the house, private lower deck with lounge chairs overlooking the beach, and so much more. The pictures don’t really do the property justice, and we would absolutely stay there again.
