About this house rental

Med Point is the best 1 bedroom beach house on the best beach in the best township in Eleuthera. It is a ROMANTIC, SECLUDED AND STYLISH ONE-BEDROOM OCEANFRONT BEACHHOUSE, located on Casuarina Beach and just 100' from French Leave Beach (formerly also known as Club Med Beach for the Club Med resort that was located there in the 90s). It is on the point between the 2 beaches. No other properties are between it and world-famous French Leave Beach. It is a short stroll to Twin Coves Beach and its superb snorkeling reef. Med Point Beach House is like a lighthouse guarding the north end of French Leave Beach, which is the loveliest and safest beach in Eleuthera. In addition, we are only a 1 mile stroll to the center of town.

Med Point cottage has just one neighbor, a house across the road from it. Med Point's large oceanfront deck and oceanfront area are completely private, shielded from view by the cottage itself. The beaches on either side of Med Point are usually deserted.

The house was NEWLY RENOVATED in 2018 by a Governors Harbour's premier designer, with wood floors, Brazilian cherry doors, large Pottery Barn sofas, and new white tiled bathroom. Comforts include 400 thread-count sheets and Thomas by Rosenthal china, and minimalist decor. Step outside the glass doors, and you will see ocean spreading away as far as you can see.

Med Point is a large 1000 square foot one-bedroom house with a huge 1100 square foot teak wrap-around deck facing the beach and ocean. It has all modern conveniences, with a full kitchen, great room, wifi and large sliding glass doors on two sides facing the ocean to maximize your view. It has a KING BED master suite. The dining area faces the ocean.The kitchen is well supplied with cookware.

Amenities include NEW SUPER-FAST STARLINK INTERNET, satellite TV w/100 channels including HBO, CNN, FOX, and BBC, ceiling fans, A/C, a gas grill, and a washing machine. There is a picnic table on the deck, and sun loungers.

Med Point is also close to Tear Coat Cay, a small island offshore, where you can snorkel; also close to lots of reefs for other snorkeling. The water is gin clear, 100 feet of visibility, and we have seen parrot fish, groupers, rays and other exotic fish. The water is 75 to 88 degrees Fahrenheit.

The drive to Med Point, takes you for about half a mile, on a sandy lane through French Leave Beach, looking out to sea and giant cacti and palms. An SUV is recommended for this road as it has rough patches. You will enjoy this splendid view of nature every day, as you go into town.

The famous bar/restaurant Tippy's is close, and there are upscale restaurants such as Sky Beach Club and 1648 Bar and Grill, Bachus Fine Foods within five minutes.

French Leave (Club Med) Beach stretches south for 1 mile: we are at the northern edge where it is quiet, with fewer tourists. Casuarina Beach, stretches north of us for another mile, and then Twin Cove beach stretches north for another mile or so. All of this can be walked along wide sandy pink beaches with excellent shelling. Or you can jog along the sandy path that is Old Banks Road and have wide vistas of white surf.

Most people who walk by Med Point, express regret that they are staying elsewhere! They tell us that they would like to spend their next holiday with us! Come and make your "couples vacation" a glorious dream.

We had the best time at Med Point, very relaxing and much needed after the stress of a wedding! The house and beaches were absolutely beautiful. Sonia was easily accessible if needed. There was an issue with the key prior to our arrival, so we had the leave the house unlocked at all times when we were away which made us a bit neevous, but is was all fine. A few things I would suggest- having some sort of welcome book or guide available- for example we didn’t know where to take the trash out too. And there’s was only one beach chair. At least one more chair, and the house definitely needs a beach umbrella for guest use. Also perhaps a small cooler to bring cold drinks to the water and lastly an outdoor shower head to rinse off after the ocean. Other than that, this place is amazing. Very remote, and I would say a 4x4 car is required- the road in and out is prettt hairy in a couple of places!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very Spacious 1 bedroom house with King Bed, rest on the water’s edge just off of French Leave Beach (One of the top ranked beaches of Eleuthera). The private deck makes for an incredible morning to walk out and enjoy the view with a cup of coffee or secluded sun bathing during the day. We loved it! The property is very secluded and a little challenging to get to, but that is what helps give this place its privacy. It’s less than a 5 min drive or 30 min walk to Gov. Harbor, local coffee shops, and restaurants. They did have a place to rinse your feet off outside, my only recommendation would be for owner to add an outside shower. Otherwise it was truly perfect.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Midpoint is totally awesome. A secluded little villa with Total privacy as it is very much off the beaten path. The villa was very comfortable, updated, and the beach and views are spectacular. Having said that, please know that there are basically zero provisions in the house. Do not assume the very, very basics like salt, pepper, sugar, bug spray, soaps, shampoos, etc. The television only works with streaming. We were unable to get any regular television but the Internet was very reliable.. Bring your own music! . It was a little disappointing that it was so ill equipped being that far off the beaten path. Overall, midpoint is a great place and I would stay there again.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Had complete privacy from this romantic oceanfront stunning home, except a few walkers in front of home but they were always respectful. this homes is set between two amazing beaches Casuarina Beach and French Leave Beach with the incredible pink sand and crystal clear water. Twin coves beach was 5 min ride from house and quite stunning as well. Our drawback was as soon as sun was setting and we would be on deck watch turtles right in front of home we were bit up pretty bad. We purchased 4 mosquito candles and mosquito repellent coils used deep woods off / wipes / oils but nothing seemed to keep them at bay. An umbrella for back deck as well as for beach would be a wonderful addition as it is hard to find shade in the hot sun. The bed was a bit too firm for us, adding a soft thicker mattress topper would be ideal. We did lose electricity more frequently than in any other home we have rented on island but it never stayed off more than two hours. Caretaker was very responsive to any questions we had. We absolutely loved this home because of its location and privacy and will definitely rent again.

This home is perfectly located on the water and near two beaches as described. It's very private, and you couldn't ask for better views of the ocean. The kitchen is very well stocked with utensils, pots and pans, and the tools you need to prepare a meal. We found the home clean and generally well maintained. And the house is perfect for a couple. Our experience would have been better if we'd known before we booked that you cannot drink the tap water and need to rely on bottled water during your stay. The house would also benefit from a manual that explains how to use the television... it's not obvious which remote to use or which service to select. And we struggled to open many of the sliding glass doors... they could benefit from some repair or WD40. While the house manager/caretaker was lovely by email/whatsapp, we never met her. She said several times that she was coming by, but she never did. As a result, we lingered around the house awaiting her arrival and lost time to do other things and felt a bit overlooked, especially when we were hoping to resolve issues with the home. We did end up cutting our week on Eleuthera short by four days. While frustrations with power and internet outages at the house contributed to that decision, I would still say this house is a lovely place to retreat and spend time.

We had a fantastic time at Med Point Cottage! it was plenty large for two people and decorated so tastefully. We would not hesitate in the future to come back to this cottage. The views are spectacular!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Lovely place with beautiful views of the ocean. Off the beaten path which is part of what makes it special-you need an SUV to get to the cottage. We love to cook and brought spices and oil which was helpful. Great walking beaches and had a few days with low winds and did some snorkeling off the beach which was great.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This house could not be in a better location, you are right at the north end of French Leave Beach have incredible ocean views! The house is clean and comfortable with plenty of space for a couple. We had an excellent stay and found the property management company was very responsive to all questions and requests. We love to cook, and it would’ve been nice for the kitchen to have a bit more in the way of utensils and supplies and a dishwasher but we were certainly able to manage. We would definitely rent again!
