About this property

Cute & Quaint Take Ya Time Cottage

Hosted on island by the owner and Airbnb Superhost, this 2 bedroom, 2 bathroom cottage offers 930 sq feet of cozy island space with a beautiful view of The Atlantic Ocean. With a covered porch to sit back and relax while you watch the million stars light up the sky. We offer assistance with booking rental cars if needed. Just a brisk 5 minute walk from the cottage is a private and secluded beach called Twin Beach where it sits in the cliff face on the Atlantic Side. But access is only safest at low tide on calm days.

A place to just settle back, unwind and relax in a comfortable and peaceful place for an affordable price. Located in a great place to feel fantastic Atlantic Ocean breezes, minimize the bug invasion and be central enough to go to any part of the island

Take Ya Time Cottage

Perfect size for 4 of us. We had everything we needed and was in a good location. It has a second living area attached to the cottage, so we tried not to disturb the occupants, and they were equally considerate.

TakeYaTime Cottage

We were in Eleuthera for a short visit and the cottage was in a great location for us. The host responded almost instantly to requests we had. Only note for future visitors is that customs were requiring the exact address and the host information, and we did not have all of it. Since we weren't connected to WiFi to pull it up customs were polite about it but were not thrilled that we didn't have all the information ready.

Relaxing vacation

The property and views were beautiful. We enjoyed our morning and evening walks. Enjoyed hearing the ocean as it broke on the cliffs. The house was very well equipped and comfortable. We are already planning our next trip! The hosts were also very helpful and had suggestions on what to do while there. Highly recommend!

Kiwanis Division Council meeting

Had a good stay but was without an iron for the two most important days of the meeting. I couldn’t wear the proper shirts. Also first Ty we had to take out our garbage. It was difficult finding our way in and out of Rainbow Bay and the roads was bad

Plenty of space, great location!

We stayed at Sandy Toes for three weeks and really liked the open layout for the kitchen and living room. Large bedrooms and bathrooms with plenty of closet space. We could hear the Atlantic roar at night from the porch or open window. The home is very comfortable and provided everything we needed. Rainbow Bay beach on the Caribbean side is a 5- minute drive away. The beach has about 6 talapas with picnic tables providing shade and a place to spread out and relax for the day. Beautiful sunsets from Rainbow Bay beach, and the water was warm and amazingly clear, great for families with small children since most days the sea was very calm. We truly enjoyed our stay at Sandy Toes and would highly recommend this property!

Our Eleuthrera Island Adventure and the Only Home to rent

Each year our family looks for an island adventure vacation to take that's not in an All Inclusive Hotel. Well we found the perfect place to stay at Take Ya Time Cottage. The owners picked us up at the airport, stopped at the grocery store on the way to the cottage. They have the jeep there to rent for the stay, bikes, kayaks and golf cart to take to the 4 local beaches. The washer and dryer were helpful so we didn't need to bring much clothes with us. The home had everything in it that we needed for our stay, clean and comfortable. Josette and Delano were there to help with the different beaches to go to, restaurants to try. We went to a new beach each day. Beaches to definitely hit are Rainbow, Lighthouse beach(2.5 hr drive to get too, but well worth it), Cocodemamia (great for small children), Twin Cove, swam with sea turtles in Whales Point..........but really all the beaches are beautiful with snorkeling. Go to the docks in James Cicstern ask for Tunn we bought fresh fish and lobster from him at 3pm and Governors Harbor at 4pm we got fresh grouper. At the end of our days at the beach we just grilled dinner and chilled at the beautiful home that Delano built. This could not have been a nicer family to rent a home from for our Island Adventure. It was everything we hoped it would be and can not wait to return again. It's an island to get away from it all, but still have internet if you need it.

Good start, unfortunate ending

I wish I could leave a 5 star review. TLDR: This is a lower level, someone lives upstairs with a barking dog, host was kind at first, then disrespectful. Details: At the time of my stay, The listing does not disclose this is a lower level. The tenant above, I'm sure is a lovely person, but around 7 to 8am they awoke me from regular footsteps, doors opening and closing, and their dog barking outside. I informed the host about this after the first morning and they were kind but also shocked to hear my feedback. On my final day, i sent a message listing about 5 things that i found could be improved for the next guest. Dead remote batteries, missing screen from window, etc, and reiterated my unhappiness about this not being disclosed it's a lower level. I wanted to sleep in and I was awoken each morning much earlier than I liked. Also it made me feel awkward about how much noise I was making. I informed them that I loved the previous stay at Pinneapple Blues, but this experience was a 3 star rating. The host commented saying I should have messaged them immediately for each thing. And they insinuated I must be lying about the upstairs and dog because no one ever said anything before. They threatened to never rent to me again if I leave a 3 star review. I meant no ill will or malice, I proceeded to send them videos I recorded to cover my own butt, and their response was "... Can't please everyone..." I hope my experience is an exception. I'm sad it turned out like this

Great Cottage With Problems

We stayed at this cottage for 29 nights in Jan-Feb. Due to an upcoming snow storm, we asked Josette if we could come a day early and she said that would be great since it was not rented for that night. I would like to thank Josette for helping us. However, there are problems with this cottage that need to be immediately addressed. We tried numerous time over the 29 nights to get these problems resolved, but they never were. Pros: 1. Great location. Centrally located so that you could go north or south on the island and explore. 2. Kitchen was well equipped with everything you need to prepare meals. 3. Beautiful view from the front porch. Cons: 1. If internet is important to you, you will definitely be disappointed. Josette said it was up and down. It was completely down for 14 of our 29 days and worked sporadicly the times it was up. 2. BBQ grill did not work. Knobs would not turn on gas and burned was almost rusted through. We tried to use it, but it would not work. 3. Ants were a constant problem. Josette provide us with ant traps that proved to be useless. If any food was left out for over 5 minutes, it would be covered with ants. This made it very hard to prepare food on the counter. 4. The main problem were the rats in the walls. They were in every room and gnawed, scratched and ran throughout the night. We tried sleeping in both bedrooms and could not get a good nights sleep in either. Spent most nights sleeping on sofa, as they weren't as bad in there. Josette, had her husband clean out from under the cottage and set traps. It did not improve the situation. If the rat problem is not addressed, they will soon be inside the cottage. 5. The only way we had to contact Josette was though email, that did not work even half the time. She has 2 large dogs that prevented you from knocking on her door. We enjoyed exploring Eleuthera, meeting the local people and snorkeling. However, we could not recommend staying here until the problems are resolved.

Best beach Vaca

Finding this home was relatively easy. The only complaint I have was ants. But I feel like that's to be expected with where the house is located. Just keep food up or in the fridge and you won't have a problem. The house is well maintained everything was super clean. Our little man was 13 months old and they gave us a pack n play to use they are super accommodating. Would recommend staying there to all my friends.
