5 minutes from Harbour Island!

The Palm Tree Cottage is the perfect place for relaxation! We are tucked away in the secluded Whale Point neighbourhood in North Eleuthera which is just a few yards north of the world-famous Glass Window Bridge . By boat we are also 5 minutes south of the prestigious Harbour Island. The cottage is the ultimate getaway for couples, families, or travelers just looking to unwind and enjoy nature. The property is situated on a cove which serves as a nursery for marine life and is teeming with wildlife. From the dock you can observe the many sea turtles, fish, sting rays, and maybe even one of the juvenile sharks! You won’t fully enjoy the surrounding location until you’ve explored the cove via kayak and experience the the wild life swimming beneath you.
The cove is always quiet, calm, and shallow - a stark difference from the Atlantic Ocean, just a few yards across the street. Imagine being able to wake up and have a cup of coffee overlooking the serene shallow waters of the cove, going for a swim, and then walking right across the street and deep sea fishing off the rocks. There is a beach within short walking distance of our private dock or you can make the quick commute to Harbour Island and experience the world-famous Pink Sand Beach.
Harbour Island also has a wide variety of things to do. If you are looking for fine dining, nightlife, or a spa day, Harbour Island has something to offer. Harbour Island also offers SCUBA trips, excursions, and deep sea fishing trips. The ease of accessibility to Harbour Island is definitely an advantage of staying with us. We have so much to offer and look forward to hosting you!
Car rental is mandatory as there is no public transportation or Uber on the island. If interested in boat rental, I can assist in setting that up for guests.
