Private with a beautiful view

This was our second visit to Daniel's Sea Cliff Cottage, and it was just as magical as our first. We explored many parts of Eleuthera, but made a point to be at the cottage in the mornings and evenings whenever possible-the view is breathtaking; we even experienced a very strong storm, but felt very safe watching the ocean from our high perch. We didn't get a chance to explore the reefs below the house up close, but we saw many rays and tortoises from the deck, and spotted (and heard) quite a few interesting birds in the brush around the house. Daniel's recommendations of places to visit and providers to work with (we love Gladys!) are spot on. If you are coming to Eleuthera, this is the real experience!

This was our second time to Eleuthera and have stayed at this location both times. We loved the location. The view off the cliff is amazing. We could spend the entire day there and be happy watching the turtles and occasional dolphins.This was a relatively last minute trip. When I reached out to Daniel to inquire about availability he responded promptly and informed me the dates were available so we went and had a great Christmas. I later learned that Daniel himself was going to be at his property at that time but changed his plans to accommodate us. So, thank you for that!! Can't wait to return!!

Secluded Gem!

Sea Cliff Cottage was a fabulous place to stay for some peace and quiet and it had an incredible view! It was the prefect spot to come back to after exploring the island. There are so many breathtakingly beautiful beaches to see! Dan was an excellent host and Philip, the caretaker was so kind and very helpful. If you are looking for adventure and a break from the crowds, this is your place!

Privacy with Great Views!

This small cottage was perfect for the two of us. My husband and I enjoyed waking up to the crashing waves on the bluff below, having our morning coffee on the deck as we watched for sea turtles, and exploring the many pink sand beaches in the area. This is a true gem!

Amazing!

I had an absolutely amazing time here! We stayed for our honeymoon and couldn't have been any happier. The view is gorgeous! We would recommend to anyone who wants to get away from your daily life to come here. The place is pretty secluded which is exactly what we wanted. We enjoyed jumping of the cliff and snorkeling around that area. Everyone was extremely kind and helpful.

Wonderful

We stayed at Sea Cliff Cottage for our first trip to Eleuthera Island. Daniel's cottage is wonderful. The view is incredible! The cottage is perfect, everything is provided for a comfortable stay. It was such fun being able to access the water right there off the cliff at the cottage!

A Liitle Slice of Heaven

Met my every expectation and then some. I love the simplicity and the natural beauty of this island, and the Sea Cliff Cottage was an amazing home base. The cottage is well appointed and the views are truly awesome. The island people are incredibly friendly. There are many interesting day trips, breathtaking beaches, and wonderful restaurants. If you are looking for glitz and glamour, look elsewhere, but if you are a naturalist at heart, you will not be disappointed!

Spectacular retreat!!

I stayed for 4 nights with my 2 kids and it was absolutely fantastic!! The house is small but works great for a couple or in our case dad and 2 kids. The deck overlooking the cliff and ocean below is magical. At all times of day we could spot sea turtles below and the kids absolutely loved jumping off the platform into the sea 20’ below :). The owner is great and very communicative… oh and is a great artist too!

Great for two

The wife and I spent 4 nights in early May. The location was great with easy access to services and all on North Eleuthera’s beaches and attractions. The cottage is great, perfect for two. We really liked the deck and outside shower. It’s really private and view is amazing complete with regular sea turtle sightings. Access to the water is not for everyone but that’s ok. Overall it was a great experience and we would stay again.

A Gem

This property is absolutely stunning and picturesque. It was clean and homey, with a comfortable bed (albeit a bit low to the ground). The Wi-Fi worked very well, as did all the appliances. Communication with the property owner Daniel was excellent. The caretaker Philip was exceptionally kind as well, going out of his way to help us out.

Magical

This was my 2nd time to stay at this property. I love how private it is…yet Gregory Town is a 5 minute drive away. I love the outdoor shower and the doors that open up onto the deck that provide the most amazing view you can imagine. Not only is the ocean view spectacular but the spectrum of colors reflecting off of the water and the cliffs as the day passes and the jaw dropping sunsets are not to be missed. And then, the starlit sky…indescribable. The house itself is very cozy and decorated with the owner’s amazing artwork…very much an amped up beach cottage vibe. I love this place. I will return. I can’t imagine staying anywhere else. It’s magical…truly.

Excellent stay

Our week at Sea Cliff was wonderful! The views are majestic, the cottage is beautifully decorated, and communication with Daniel was smooth. The location is great, right in Gregory Town not far from restaurants, access to Queens Highway to explore the island, north enough to go to both Spanish Wells, Harbour Island, Queen’s Bath, bridge, Surfers Beach, etc. Being north didn’t stop us from checking out all of the island, even the furthest south, Lighthouse Beach. Truly it was a spectacular week and this home was a big part of that! There is a descent size cooler there to use, gas stove, toaster oven etc. FYI no grill or oven. Sea turtles were out in the water daily, visible from right up on the deck. Snorkeled a bit one day when it was very calm, saw a lot of starfish, one sting ray, and a variety of fish. It is a gem! Thank you Daniel for an amazing stay!

Loved it!

We just departed from our week at the Sea Cliff cottage. If you like an amazing view in a very private setting, this place is for you. Photos look amazing but you really need to be there to appreciate the beauty of the entire setting. We had a nice breeze the entire time we were there. We would wake up early, turn the A/C off, open all the doors and windows. Even though it was in the upper 80’s we never needed to turn the A/C on during the day because how open the cottage is to the sea breeze. The caretaker, Phillip, is a super nice gentleman that we appreciated getting to know. He was available for anything we needed. We also loved the location of Gregorytown. It’s the perfect spot between Harbour Island and Spanish wells to the North and Governor’s Harbour to the south. Gregorytown was especially nice having two of the beaches we enjoyed the most right there, Lovers beach and Surfers beach. We were the only people on both beaches while we were there. If you’ve never visited any of the Bahamas out islands be sure to rent a car, preferably a 4x4. This allows you to get to some of the most remote beaches with no problem. Plus, you’ll be able to take in the overall beauty of the entire island. I highly encourage you to consider staying at the Sea Cliff cottage. We’re already looking at our calendar to see when we can go back.

The Amazing Sea Cliff Cottage

What an amazing house. Barely visible from the road you really get a sense that you are by yourself. Our breath was taken away by this charming house as soon as we set foot on the deck. The stunning views of the horizon, the blue water far below, and the wonderful charm of the cottage kept us saying "wow" for the first hour. Checking in with Mr. Thompson was quick and easy and after that we got straight to the business of relaxing at this wonderful place. We cooked very little but with as well stocked as the cottage was we could have easily whipped up anything in our meal repertoire. The air conditioner kept us plenty cool at night and the comfortable bed was a welcome change from the house we stayed at for the first week of our trip. Showering with the window open in the bathroom shower was almost as fun as showering in the outdoor shower... but not quite. ;-) Conveniently located close enough to Gregory Town to grab some necessities on a whim and run up to Champions (Hi Dee!) for a quick bite. An amazing place and a wonderful memory.

Mother - Daughter retreat week

I traveled to Dan's Sea Cliff Cottage with my 24 year old daughter; having never been to Eleuthera it was a leap of faith for two weary and frozen and Minnesotans. The house was perfect for us, elegant and casual with perfect appointments in kitchen and bedding.... views, views, views ... Can I say more? We decided not to rent a car, but rather walk to surfer's beach and to town for supplies. Everyone was so helpful, we made friends along the way -- people gave us rides, helped out, and yes we always carried cash and tip money for such favors. We did hire Shawn from the "7 eleven" for some tours and rides. The caretaker was helpful and checked in with us which was comforting. We went to " unplug" and we did! Do not expect to stay connected to wifi, you can find it in town. Be prepared to enjoy the fantastic magical realism that Gregory Town offers!

Perfect Island Getaway

My wife and I restarted our travels with this gem of a property and were simply left awestruck by the beauty and seclusion we found. It was perfect for the two of us. From opening the place up completely in the mornings to closing up and sleeping in the air-conditioned comfort there was not a moment that was not incredible. The house sits on a cliff and has a large deck over the water. We saw sea turtles every day during our stay. The view of the ocean during the day is mesmerizing and the stars at night are intensely bright as there is no light pollution. There is no television set which brings about an unexpected sense of relief and escape. The WiFi is fast and strong for the inevitable link to the world. Gregory Town is a welcoming community and Daniel has excellent suggestions in the PDF he provides. We like to drive around and explore Eleuthera but the villa gravity here is difficult to escape. The house is nicely and comfortably furnished and Daniel's artistic touch and talent are evident. Needless to say we were super-impressed with this rental and highly recommend it for couples who want to get way together.

Peaceful and Great View

My wife and I have stayed on Eleuthera two times prior to this visit in VRBO homes. We have had great VRBO experiences and love the island and people of Eleuthera. We often joke about not giving positive reviews about the island because one of the many things we love is that it is a bit off the grid and unknown to people. It is not for everyone, if you are looking to be pampered and have people serve you Eleuthera is not your type of place, but if you are looking to visit beautiful beaches where you will not see another person and met "real people and relax it might be a good fit. Over the years, we have debated on staying at Sea Cliff Cottage and have stayed in other parts of Eleuthera. We have loved our past visits, and Sea Cliff Cottage was as wonderful as any place we have stayed. It is what I would call a "well appointed rustic cottage". The open air and full view of the ocean from within the cottage when the periwinkle doors are open is breathtaking/relaxing. We sat for hours on couch looking at the ocean and relaxing on the deck reading books. Waking up in the morning with a cup of coffee or enjoying a cocktail in the evening, opening the doors and enjoying the ocean breeze and warm sun is an unbelievable way to start/finish your day. Dan the owner was great answering questions leading up to our visit, helping us with the car rental and also responding to questions during our visit. The picture of the house do not captivate the experience you will have.

Beautiful cottage with stunning views

My wife and I stayed near Gregory Town on Surfer's Beach last January and very much wanted to return to the area. We were looking to rent a small, secluded house on either the Atlantic or Caribbean side. Fortunately, we found this house. It is a beautiful new cottage built on a cliff overlooking the Caribbean roughly two miles south of Gregory Town. Unlike many houses on the island, it has six floor-to-ceiling doors, which allows for a great "indoor/outdoor" living experience. Better still is the deck, which the photos on this site do not do justice. The deck - also unlike many other houses - is enormous and the view spectacular (particularly the sunsets). Still better is the privacy. The cottage is secluded with no immediate neighbors and the days and nights are very quiet (and, unless there's a full moon, very dark, so we recommend bringing a flashlight or headlamp for walking from the cottage to the road). We also appreciated the relatively large kitchen space, as we prepare nearly all of our meals at home. The cottage is furnished very comfortably. Though we had already visited Eleuthera, the owner provided lots of useful information about local sites, restaurants, cafes, groceries, etc. The owner also provided a good contact for a car rental (it's not too difficult to hitchhike around the island but we recommend renting a car). The caretaker is a very friendly guy who lives a few minutes away in Gregory Town, though we never had any reason to contact him. A great experience!

A lovely bungalow

This was our 4th trip to Eleuthera but first time on the Caribbean side. Sea Cliff is an adorable house exactly as depicted. It is very private and secluded and located close to great restaurants, groceries, beaches and all that you need. Our concern that was indeed confirmed was that at this house, you can only access the water by a very long ladder. Be careful as it is quite a drop and when you come up you must be able to completely pull yourself out of the water to get to the first step and take a slippery climb up. We did it no problem but it was not terribly relaxing and think caution should be given before jumping in. That said, we did enjoy seeing a few turtles and barracuda right in front of us. We ended up however deciding that we prefer the Atlantic side better. We like to walk on the beach from our house and hear the waves morning noon and night. Glad we tried this side and house but we won't be back for those reasons (not to do with the house). The house, while immaculate and beautiful could use just a few amenities to make it really comfortable. The deck is large and lounge chairs wonderful, but there is no escape from the sun and not even a small table to put a drink on. An umbrella and a table to eat at on the deck would have been great. That's an easy fix. We would also have appreciated a grill. Otherwise we had all we needed. Unfortunately,. we found the breeze really doesn't get inside the house - likely not enough cross ventilation though from all appearances you would think it would. When it is sun down and the no-see-ums and mosquitos come out at night, we did not want to be shut in with the a.c. on so we used mosquito coils and baby oil. It worked pretty well and we did sleep with all the doors and windows open every night. Eleuthera is quite safe and that is one of the great things about being there. Dan, we appreciate the use of your home very much and think you've done a lovely job. Thanks very much for making it available for others to enjoy!

The Little Yellow House on the Cliff

Before I begin I would like to say that Daniel was great. Emails were answered promptly and he had a lot of helpful info. This place...where do I start? No television, no computer, no WiFi, my phone didn't even get service...instead of maintaining a solid grip on our ties to the modern world, you know what we got? An ocean view that that was only interrupted by the curve of the Earth. Sunsets that looked like they were crafted by Bob Ross himself (including one that featured a double rainbow...Bob didn't even venture to paint stuff like that). Front row seats to lightning storms whose only drawbacks were that it momentarily interrupted our view of the Milky Way. Quiet nights filled only with the sound of waves gently lapping against the rocky cliffs below. A central location that granted great access to everything on the island. A surprisingly comfy bed. Let me ask you something? Have you ever had your morning coffee while watching sea turtles swim through crystal clear waters? I have and it's awesome. Sea Cliff Cottage is a clean, charming and beautiful home but it wouldn't be worth a review if it wasn't for the exquisite surroundings and wonderful people that truly make this island special. Wallace met my wife and I at the airport and had my rental car ready to go. Phillip welcomed us to Gregory Town, waited patiently while we got groceries and showed us around. Andrew hung out and watched the sunset with us after he dropped off lobster tails the size of my forearm. Franco and Colette at the Sunset Lounge gave us advice on the island, provided cold beers, delicious meals, and even better conversation. Fabian let us borrow a map. This is the thing that I haven't read in reviews and it might be the best thing about this area...the people. The people of Gregory Town are some of the warmest, most sincere people I've ever met. By the second day I was picking up hitchhikers. This isn't a 5 star resort, no one is going to hand you a fancy drink with an umbrella in it and ask if you need turn down service but I can guarantee that after one night on the deck you'll realize that you don't need any of those things because this cottage provides intangibles that you'll never find in a place like that. I could drone on and on about the great things that we saw and felt on this trip but I wouldn't be able to do Eleuthera justice. This is a place that must be experienced. We can't wait to come back to the little yellow house on the cliff... -N&M

A Little Slice of Heaven

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Sea Cliff Cottage. We booked for the views/patio and that amazing little spot to jump off the side of the cliff into the Caribbean Sea and it did not disappoint. Every day started with a cup of tea and sea turtle spotting and every afternoon ended with jumps off the cliff to swim, an outdoor shower, happy hour on the patio trying to spot dolphins passing in the water and stargazing into the most amazing sky I may have ever witnessed. We visited different beaches daily (Surfer's Beach is close by, Gaulding Cay Beach was a short drive and had a fun little spot to snorkel, Current Beach was our favorite spot to wade out onto the sandbars and watch for rays) & Queen's Bath is cool. We took the ferry over to Harbour Island and enjoyed Governer's Harbour, but we mostly just loved up our little cottage. We had brought a Neso tent for shade on the beaches and tied it up to the deck for some shade as there isn't much mid-day and spent a many an afternoon just hanging out at the cottage enjoying the breezes. Because the cottage opens wide to that gorgeous view, you will get some bugs; pesky fruit flies that love the kitchen drains and a few flies and mosquitos. The only thing we should have brought (and left as a parting gift) is one of those electronic tennis-racket bug-zapper things. The mattress could use a foam topper, but we were so tired at night we slept for 9hrs straight and woke up with the sunrise anyway! We will be back!
