Oceanfront Glass House on Private Deserted Pink Sand Beach

Bonefish Barbis Beach Bungalow Beachhouse is an oceanfront vacation rental located in Eleuthera, Bahamas (Fodor's Travel Guide said that Eleuthera is one of the most beautiful Bahamian islands).

This modern two bedroom/two bath house sits atop a bluff directly on the ocean with a panoramic view of a horizon full of whitecaps generated by nearby offshore reefs. Many of these reefs are within swimming distance in shallow waters. The house is surrounded by flowers, especially an assortment of different colors of bourganvillas. The beach in front of the house is virtually deserted and you can walk for miles either way on beautiful white/pink powder soft sand-- you probably wont see another person.

WE NOW HAVE WI-FI !

Words can’t describe how amazing the beach and the views are at this property. It was truly a unique and unforgettable getaway! The home was well equipped for us to cook meals and we had plenty of towels, etc… I highly recommend Bonefish Barbi’s!

What a Wonderful Hidden Gem

This was the perfect honeymoon location for my husband and I. The house had everything we could ever need, and with steps going right down to the deserted beach it was an absolute paradise. Highly recommend!

Best Beach (period)

You couldn’t ask for a better beach. Very private. Saw 5 others one day, every other day 2 or none. Brand new grocery store opened in GH (finally). Head and shoulders above anything else on the island. The only slight disappointment was new house built right next door. It was never a problem, just different than our previous stays there. Still - a 10 out of 10

Comfortable House with Spectacular Views

The house is very comfortable, was very clean, and the kitchen is well-stocked with pots/pans, dishes and utensils. The view is what you want when you stay at a house overlooking the Atlantic Ocean! If privacy, quiet, easy beach access and a chance to sit outside and check out the night sky is what you’re looking for, this is the place. Owner is easy to communicate with.

Amazing views and well laid out house for families

Bonefish Barbi's has an amazing view of the Atlantic Ocean and some of best snorkeling on the entire island right outside its doors. The layout of the house is perfect for families and the amenities in the house provide you with everything you would need. Barbi is prompt and thorough with her responses - I felt very comfortable in all my interactions with her. She was happy to provide recommendations and provided clear directions about the property.

Peaceful & Great Beach

I have been going to Eleuthera for over 20 years. Every home is different and being on a remote island has its challenges for property owners. This home sits on a great beach with plenty of privacy. It was very clean and the check in process was super easy. Some items are worn, but everything works. The bed in the blue bedroom sways and is super soft (the only negative). Awesome view and nice location.

Great choice for a memorable vacation

My family of 4 stayed for 6 nights in late March. The house was clean and well equipped with comfortable beds. There are many chairs, coolers, towels, snorkeling gear, and even some floaties available for use. The view is amazing, I could never tire of the view. The beach is a short walk down a couple flights of wooden stairs. The sand is fine, soft, white with pink mixed in. You can walk for miles and miles in either direction. We will be back!

Nicer than expected

Great floor plan - everything was functional although we didn't use the TV - internet worked fine when the power was on - lost power several times during the week, but that's expected. Saw a yellow-crowned night heron in the yard several days in a row - he may live there. Surprisingly private even though there is another house close by. The hedge and separate stairway to the beach make it seem quite isolated. Enjoyed walking Airport beach without driving.

Most Amazing Family Vacation of My Life

My husband and two children (4 & 5 years old) stayed for a week after christmas. It was magical. The home is perfectly laid out for a family. The view and beach access (practically a private beach!) were amazing for all of us. Sandcastles and lazy coffee mornings everyday. The location is very near so many lovely short day trips for kids (cocodimama beach is ideal for 4 & 5 year olds and only a few minutes away). We stayed home way more than we planned because Barbi's is so well appointed. Eleuthera has absolutely charmed us! We hope to be back soon!

Perfect place

Everything was perfect. All the utensils and cookware you could ask for to cook great meals. 5 minute drive to the town of governors harbour where you can buy groceries, liquor, and go to great restaurants. Truly a peaceful place with great views. House had beach chairs there and we enjoyed sitting on the beach and not seeing anyone for days. Snorkeling and spearing was awesome. I would bring your own fins as she had very small fins there and the current in the Atlantic is strong. The outside of the house looks like it’s weathered quite a few storms but it is a quaint and beautiful place that I can’t wait to go back to

Okay

The host is excellent and the property is in a good location with a great view, the a/c works well and there is good snorkeling right out front. It’s a dated property that needs some work outside, nails are sticking up on the deck you have to be careful of and some of the steps going down to the beach need to be replaced. There is a lot of litter that washes up on the beach and the residents do their best to keep the area picked up but if you walk the long stretch of deserted beach to the south it is covered in plastic litter above the tide. You can hardly step without landing on a piece of plastic. It was heartbreaking to see.

Spectacular View

We loved our stay at the Beachfront Glass House. This rental is certainly all about the view! The Glass House sits up on a bluff with a magnificent view of the Atlantic.( For those with mobility issues there are quite a few steps down to the beach.) Also, there are some uneven, raised areas on the deck that you need to mindful of. The beach itself is beautiful, but because of uneven rocks near the shore it’s challenging to wade in. (If you go north or south on the beach there are some unobstructed areas where you can wade in.)The layout of the house couldn’t be better. It features a large common area with kitchen, and living room. In this common area there is a dining table adjacent to the kitchen. (We would have loved a table and umbrella on the deck!) We also think the grill might be better if placed on the front deck next to the kitchen. There is a nice separation between the two bedrooms that are located on either side of the house.The owner, Barbi, is a great communicator and gets back to quickly with any questions you might have. For future renters we’d recommend getting a shopping service to have the house stocked with what you’d like to have when you arrive. We did, and what a difference it made!At this rental the pluses outweigh the minuses. We would definitely stay here again!

Great Location / Comfortable Stay

Bonefish Barbi’s was a very comfortable stay for us on our third trip to Eleuthera. You can’t beat the location with the beach right outside your door and centrally located to Governer’s Harbor making groceries, gas, and restaurants an easy trip.The beds were comfortable, there were plenty of supplies to enjoy the decks and beach, and the wall of windows provided a panorama view of the ocean.The landscaping provided for a private stay and the outdoor shower was a lot of fun!Check in was easy, orientation with recommendations were very helpful, and the host was very easy to communicate with.

Great location and gorgeous beach

While our stay started out with bad weather, we made the best of things putting together some awesome puzzles she had. When the power went out at night for a bit, we enjoyed the glow in the dark counter tops!! lol. The location of this home is fantastic! We were able to explore points both north and south of the house. We walked the beach below as far as we could and back. Great long walk. Saw many ships out at sea I the shipping lanes right from the comfort of the kitchen table. She had plenty of pans and utencils for cooking and the house is well stocked with beach chairs, coolers, and some snorkel gear. The house was clean and there were plenty of towels for showering which is great for a little longer stay. The a/c units worked great even though we didn't need them often at all. The Island Farm isn't far and we were able to find just about everything we needed there. Fresh bread and sweet rolls on Tuesdays and Fridays had us going back for more! Gas and groceries, fresh fish, and great gift shop Norma's in Governor's Harbour....not to mention a super fun Friday night Fish Fry.
