About this house rental

The original Elephant Beach House stood from 1969 to 2019 when Hurricane Dorian destroyed our wonderful little beach house, along with most of Great Guana Cay.

We are proud to introduce Elephant Beach House 2.0. The new place has 3 bedrooms & 3 bathrooms in 2,100 square feet. It rests upon stout 12 foot pilings, which has served to make the views even more spectacular than before. The house is mostly windows & has multiple, strategically placed doors that you can open to allow the beach breeze to blow through. The huge decks double the living space and contain 2 thatched tiki bars (one on each side of the house). There is a 16' x 8' swim/spa that overlooks the island and the Sea of Abaco. A unique teak swing is a perfect spot to take in the wonderful sunsets. There is a 12' x 12' deck down on the ground level that overlooks the beach and ocean and then continue on to the spacious stairs with comfortable landings provide additional living space to enjoy the spectacular views. Our beach is composed of some of the softest beach sand you will find anywhere in the world and is secluded (you may observe 10 people walk down the beach all day)! The house has central air and ceiling fans in generous vaulted ceilings. Every room contains huge picture windows with priceless views. The great room has a large flat screen TV with a semi-circular couch. The dining table is made of teak by artisans from Indonesia and seats 6. The spacious kitchen has a large island with 6 stylish bar stools. There is also a way-cool teak high top breakfast bar with 4 teak stools that overlooks the pool and island/Sea of Abaco view. The refrigerator & oven are a colorful retro-blue. The house is decorated throughout with beautiful tropical/island art. If you are like us, you will never want to leave. The house sits on a large lot that is 173 feet on the ocean and 750 deep with a tropical jungle surrounding the property. There is a backup diesel generator in case of power outages.

This home was gorgeous with amazing views. Pool is really nice. Close to the ferry and grocery but secluded enough for the feeling of a private retreat. Walking distance to Nippers from the beach. The caretaker, Darwin was extremely accessible and responsive. Now for the problems. The lack of adequate furnishings. Our group of 6 could not sit in living room as a group with the couch that seated 3. The couch was low end outdoor furniture and did not seem to fit the overall furnishings of the home. Beds are low to the ground and could be difficult to get out of. Simple kitchen utensils like tongs and a pizza cutter would be nice to have.

Words or pictures can not describe how amazing this house, the beach and the property are. The small town is full of friendly people. The beach is like none I have ever seen and the house is comfortable and perfect for the setting. Also the manager Darvin goes above and beyond to make sure you have everything you want.

The place was spotless, the views truly breathtaking, and sitting on the hammock drinking a cold beer listening to the waves was everything I had hoped it would be. Will definitely come back again

The house was great, property was amazing.....such character and charm. It had everything we needed. Location is perfect. Secluded without immediate neighbors but a short walk to someplace to eat and drink. The island's grocery store is also very close to the house which was nice. Highly recommend this place and definitely will be back someday!

The property itself was exactly what we'd hoped, and more. From inside there are incredible ocean views from every window & set of double doors. Then each of the decks leading to the sand offered additional beauty and views - each a bit of a different perspective. Even while enjoying the outdoor shower, you have an amazing view of the bay and lush green canopy. Everything about the home, inside & out, is updated & well kept - appliances, furniture, bedding, hammock, decks, beach chairs, deck chairs... I can not say enough wonderful things about Darvin the property manager, as well as many others. Our flight was delayed and caused us to miss the last ferry of the day from Marsh Harbour. Albury's Ferry service was still able to send someone to get us over to Guana Cay that evening, making us so happy to not miss our first night at Elephant Beach House. This caused us to miss our pre-arranged meet time with Darvin. He still came back out to the dock that evening, already had our golf cart there waiting for us, and then took us to the house and showed us everything about the property...plus a mini tour of where Grabber's & Nipper's both were. We had a fabulous boat day (piggies, sharks, rays, turtles), thanks to Guana Dive - the owner Tony, and our awesome captain Suuvi (sp?) made our trip happen even though the only day we had left to make it happen was actually a holiday. Guana Dive also helped us not miss our flight home.. we missed our ferry that morning, so I went to talk to them again... Maria (Tony's wife) was so kind and helpful and is the reason we made it back to Marsh Harbour in time for our flight home. Guana Grocery had everything we needed for our 5 day stay too. The nicest young man always took our bags to the cart before you could even try and pick them up yourself. Basically, every single person we encountered, including Suzanne (pretty sure that was her name) at Nipper's, was as kind and helpful as you could imagine. To watch the sun rise to your right, and set to your left, all from your private decks was amazing! 99% of the time, your own footprints were the only ones you'd find on the beach. All in all, the energy, peacefulness, beauty and happiness of this island and everyone that calls it home is truly incredible. Absolutely can't wait to go back! Thank you to everyone that made it so special and inviting.

We stayed at this beautiful property from late June into July, 2019. The owner, Brian was always very pleasant and responded quickly to each correspondence. The property manager Darvin Curry was awesome. Very friendly and attentive with everything during our stay and always responded very quickly. He made us feel like home. When we arrived the house was extremely clean thanks to Calica's attention to detail. Calica is in charge of housekeeping and cleaned once during our stay as well. This beautiful island style home has great views of the beach and a gorgeous outdoor area to relax. It is comfortably furnished inside with it's beachy decor. Very good for two or four people. We will be back. Thank you for everything. J & T from Miami
