About this house rental

Casuarina Bay is an exceptionally beautiful, secluded hideaway on the island of Eleuthera, in the Bahamas. Just two lovely properties share this very private protected bay on the Atlantic, skirted by miles of pink sand beaches.

The house has spectacular views of the Atlantic Ocean, amidst a picturesque grove of coconut palms, colorful hibiscus, fragrant frangipani flowers, sea grape, passion fruit, papaya and Casuarina trees.

This beachfront vacation cottage is built of cedar in an open hexagonal design, with a high ceiling and a sleeping loft, ideal for children. Eight arching windows provide magnificent views, and open onto a wrap-around 360 degree deck with outdoor shower. There's a split level A/C unit. On the beach we have a thatched cabana with comfortable lounge chairs.

Perfect for a honeymooning couple or a small family, this rustic Round House is charmingly and comfortably furnished, and has been described as 'the hidden treasure of Eleuthera'.

This is the perfect place for the adventurous traveler and for those who enjoy taking in the exquisite beauty of this magical island.

Snorkel for hours right in front of the house on the pristine coral reefs. Catch your own lobster and feast on them while watching the full moon rise out of the ocean. Awake to the gentle sound of the breeze rustling through the coconut trees.

Ocean-lovers will find some of the best snorkeling, scuba diving, and swimming in the world. Underwater visibility is up to 100 feet, with water temperatures ranging between 70 and 80 degrees Fahrenheit.

Easily accessible, Casuarina Bay is just one hour by air from Fort Lauderdale, and only seven miles from Governors Harbour airport. It is located 1.5 miles northeast of the quaint village of Governors Harbour, one of the oldest settlements in the Bahamas.

Eleuthera beaches are some of the most beautiful ones we've ever been on. And this house is within walking distance of some awesome ones including the pink sands of the French Leave beach. The house itself was pleasant to stay in with some big fans that kept the air moving. The house is definitely an open-air concept. Even the bathroom doesn't have a door on it. The property does need some maintenance and cleaning. We could not get the oven part of the stove to work, the books (especially the ones upstairs) are filthy and moldy, the one cabana chair is missing a leg, the "sorta private fence" of the outdoor shower is falling down, etc. etc Also, this place is not nearly private as we were expecting. I should have paid more attention to some of the other reviews that mentioned this. There is another house only steps from this one that is also rented out. So just keep in mind that other folks will be there and talking, etc. just outside your front door. The laundry room is in the other house and shared with other guests. The cabana is also mentioned as private, but that only means it's yours to use, but there is another one right next to it, something that of course is not mentioned or shown in the pictures. All in all, if you have the right expectations coming into this place, you'll enjoy staying here. Eleuthra is a beautiful island and we really enjoyed our time here.

Unique property with a great backstory. Hostess was pleasant and not intrusive. The beach was steps away, with little to no foot traffic. The ocean and the snorkeling were a bit surreal... like living in a postcard. We spent most of our time in the cabana or in the water, enjoying Kalik and local fare . Doon and her family are activists working in the best interest of the island by educating the youth and speaking out against real estate development that will destroy the reef. That has nothing to do with this review, but it is commendable work and deserves to be noted

Thank you Doon and Taja for an amazing and relaxing week in Eleuthera! We truly enjoyed our vacation. The property was beautiful and secluded. The beach is one of the best we have visited. It was fun to explore the reef. Every day was an adventure. It was so nice to unwind after this past year and a half. You both were so welcoming and thoughtful. We will definitely be back! The island of Eleuthera is truly a beautiful place and so welcoming to visitors. Hope to see you soon!

If you are looking to stay at a new home that's like staying at a resort, this isn't the place for you. If you are ok with charm, solitude, uneven floors, driftwood for door handles, the occasional time when nature finds it's way indoors (some bugs and maybe a frog or two), this is your place. We had a great stay and will be back for sure. It was the escape from normal life we were looking for. The host was very attentive. We had a few issues that needed to be worked out and they were quickly taken care of which isn't always easy on a remote island. Thanks for a great stay.

The location of the Round House was superb! Steps away from the islands finest beaches. Very convenient to Governor's Harbor and a great location for exploring the entire island. This unique house has a wonderful story but you must visit to hear first hand. We especially enjoyed the architecture of the house and the outdoor shower.

My friend and I enjoyed 5 beautiful days at The Round House this July, and we could not have asked for a better trip! This was my 3rd visit to Eleuthera in the last 6 months and the Round House is positioned perfectly along a stretch of isolated pink sand and clear water, only a couple of minutes drive into town and all of our favorite places. From booking to check in and check out, Taja was so helpful and informative. We arrived without any issue to the stunning island charm of the Round House. The feeling you get when you step inside transports you out of everyday life and you instantly feel a sense of peace and island hospitality! It was clean, light and bright with personal family and Bahamian touches throughout. So incredible that this house was built by the owners, they did such an amazing job. We took advantage of the well-equipped kitchen, cooking meals at home, as well as the outdoor shower looking out at the palms and greenery. The beach was private and amazing as usual. We sipped cocktails from the deck, kayaked to French Leave Beach and had wonderful sleep every night that had us up with the sunrise every day. This was hands down my favorite place that I've stayed on the island and I will for sure be back!

Loved the location down the sand (not dirt!) path and the private beach. The home is great and you can hear the ocean waves from the bed at night. Only issue we had was that the bathroom shower is a bit old and needs to be carefully adjusted. The couches were quite old and not great but certainly usable - especially since it's on a small island I'm sure there are not a ton of ways to get new furniture there. Would definitely return. The homeowners were very responsive and helpful!

We were looking to enjoy a nice relaxing vacation and that is exactly what we got. The island of Eleuthera is a hidden gem. The beaches (which you almost always have to yourself) are absolutely beautiful, the locals are very friendly and the island is safe and so much fun to explore! We really enjoyed getting to know Doon during our stay and the kids loved playing with Bimini (her dog) every day! I highly recommend a vacation to Eleuthera! We can’t wait to go back!

We really love the rustic charm of the Round House, a hexagonal hand-hewn cottage with a warm ambience you don't find in a typical rental. We had the gorgeous, long beaches almost to ourselves, and when it was windy on this side, we just drive a short distance to a calmer beach on the East side. The owner, Doon, is an absolutely lovely person, who has lived there for many years, and is active in preserving the natural wonders of the sea and land of Eleuthera. This place is a unique treasure!

This is our third year at the Round House and we can't let go.....it is the BEST place to stay in Eleuthera! My fiancé has gone on a kayak (fishing), in front of the home, and has caught blue runners, yellow jacks and yellow tails!!!! How cool is that? Not only that, there is the best snorkeling also in front of the home...less than 10 feet from shore! Don't this twice...this is the place to stay!
