About this cottage rental

Touchstone's Cottage lies on a 1-acre tropical and expansive property adjacent to the world-famous Pink Sand Beach. TS's Cottage is east of Romora Bay Marina, tucked in just behind the dune and about 100 steps from the beach. You can hear the ocean from the front patio. Incredible upgrades were recently completed at TS's Cottage, such as expanding and resurfacing the front patio with coral stone tiles, creating designated golf cart parking and a landing, an outdoor shower, and a hand-made native Bahamian stone outdoor grilling area, plus more. As for the interiors, the kitchen has been renovated with a large hardwood island with an under-mount basin sink, creating adequate space perfect for family and friend gatherings and meals, a new fridge and a new electric range have also been installed. The living room has new furniture and furnishings, and both bedrooms and bathrooms have been renovated from top to bottom with fresh paint and furnishings. TS's Cottage shares the lush and vast property with the much-admired Touchstone's House (VRBO listing 948739) - the homes are far enough away for total privacy to rent separately yet close enough together to rent as a duo, perfect for large families or groups of friends. Children and baby supplies can be rented through the housekeeper, please inquire. Daily housekeeping is included. We recommend purchasing travel insurance. Please reach out for any questions you might have. It would be our pleasure to help you plan an unforgettable trip to this amazing island.

We had an amazing week on Harbor Island staying at Touchstone's Cottage. The cottage was so charming and the grounds were beautiful. Karina and David are two of the nicest people and are wonderful hosts. They have really thought of everything to make their guests feel right at home. We're already looking forward to next year!

Touchstone Cottage is the loveliest little piece of paradise on Harbor Island. Sitting on a large property, and very private, with beautiful lawn and landscaping, plenty of shady trees, and a hammock that got a lot of time from my crew in afternoons. You can hear the ocean from porch and smell the sea air, and walk to the pink sands beach in a couple minutes! Perfectly located with a very special "old island" vibe with wonderful historic books lining the shelves and fun an creative art. This was our 3rd stay in the cottage and it''s been beautifully re-decorated, maintaining the charm with sweet little vintage pieces here and there. I just absolutely ADORE this cottage, I'm hesitant to say too much bc I want it all to myself! Comfortable for family of 4, or a little romantic hide-a-away for 2. Close to everything.. marinas, town, restaurants and shopping, but I feel such sense of calm each time I return and drive down the the little dirt path back to the cottage. It is quiet and clean and just oh so special! Could not give a higher recommendation. I'll be back very very soon!

We enjoyed our stay in Touchstone's Cottage. The property owner and the staff on site were kind and helpful. The initial materials we were sent with info on Harbour Island dining, shopping, excursions, etc... was comprehensive and invaluable. Then when we arrived, everything was exactly as we expected. We were able to message with the property staff during out stay when we needed something. The best part of the property though, is its proximity to the beach. The walk is VERY short, which is perfect with young kids. I highly recommend Touchstone's Cottage and hope we will come back ourselves.

We absolutely loved our time at Touchstone — incredible property. Karina was an amazing host!! Mix in stone crabs, fresh coconut, pristine pink sand beach within steps, outdoor shower, sweet neighbors, a goat farm across the street, chickens, sea turtles, golf carts, boat tour, and everything perfectly explained in advance, and you have the perfect family vacation. We highly recommend to anyone looking for an unmatched time at Harbour Island. You can tell how much time has gone into making everything easy. So grateful that we picked Touchstone!!

This property is perfect for a family with two small children! A one minute walk to the beach can’t be beat. The house was clean and fully stocked like listed. Would stay here again in the future! Only downside - no washer and dryer. It was difficult to get beach towels to dry for the next adventure especially during rainy season.

My husband and I stayed at Touchstone’s Cottage for our 2nd annual trip to Harbour Island. David and Karina are absolutely lovely and made us feel right at home. If you are looking for a stay that feels authentic to Harbour Island, you can’t beat their cottage and I’m sure the house on the property is equally as lovely. They truly thought of everything and the decor is perfection.

We had an amazing stay at the Touchstone Cottage, and everything was perfect - the home is unique, thoughtfully stocked and in an unbeatable location on the island. Karina and David were welcoming and lovely, and it would take more than a few beers to hear their full life stories. They were very responsive, both before our trip when we had some VRBO booking issues as well as throughout our stay, providing us realtime info on the best local places to visit and eat. The property was perfect for our family; we were easily able to rent a crib from Neka for our infant and it was there upon our arrival. In addition to the well appointed house, the yard is an amazing asset. After a day on the beach, we found hanging out on the porch, hammock or on a blanket in the backyard to be very way to wind down. We will definitely return. Touchstone Cottage is a true gem!

I have stayed at Touchstone’s Cottage with my family for spring break in the past but decided this year to getaway with fellow friends to take some time for myself and refill my emotional bucket! And needless to say - this was the perfect trip! The cottage is well appointed and decorated to ensure a relaxing peaceful retreat. Karina is a fantastic host and the cottage is well stocked with anything you may need to ensure the best stay. All you need is a bathing suit and a good book! I highly recommend Touchstone for a family getaway with the littles / teenagers or couples too. But this time around for me the solo respite to promote a little self-care hit the spot! Nobody does it better than Touchstone! And you can’t miss out on the pink sand, warm sunshine and clear blue ocean! All sent me back feeling refreshed and rejuvenated! Thank you Karina! 🔆🐚🌸🌴⛱
