About this property

Two Dunes - Secluded Beach At Your Door

Relax to the sound of the surf at your doorstep in this private, open concept couples retreat.

Two Dunes is luxuriously secluded, situated as the only house on a mile of powder-soft pink sand beach. With floor to ceiling windows filling the walls and multiple walk-outs, you are immersed in a stunning ocean view from both inside and out. A huge deck surrounds the house, equipped with sun beds, picnic table and loungers front and back for true outdoor living. Step off the deck, onto the sand and right into the clear turquoise water. No need to pack a beach bag! The covered terrace provides shade and lovely views from its position elevated above the beach. The private outdoor shower provides a refreshing cleanse while gazing at the surf.

The second house is private space and is never occupied when Two Dunes is rented.

Explore the reefs just offshore in the clear-bottomed kayak and bring your snorkels. The swimming is excellent with a nice sandy bottom just beside the house as well as a sandy bottomed 'reef pool' at low tide.

The house has a comfortable king bed with luxury linens, HDTV DVD and Media Library with 700 movies and 100 TV shows, iPod docking station, full bath, kitchen equipped with high-powered blender for cocktails, Internet access, A/C and ceiling fans. Huge windows on three walls provide tons of light and spectacular ocean views. Three large doors walk out onto the terrace and deck.

Just a few minutes away is the town of Palmetto Point, which provides restaurants and stores. Also close by are many other beaches, the town of Governor's Harbour, Sky Beach Club, the airport (only 17 miles away), Island Farm and other attractions.

Directly behind the house is a picturesque inland lake with a variety of fish, plentiful bird watching opportunities and spectacular sunsets.

Perfect Getaway!

Upon your arrival at Two Dunes you will be transported to your own private paradise! The unassuming but impeccably kept cottage sits directly on a quiet beach with spectacular views. Communication with the owner and concierge was excellent and prepared us for our "Perfect Getaway". Our only regret was not having Natasha cook us a meal, but next time we will!

Two dunes

The house is right on a beautiful beach. It was not difficult to find. It is secluded so bring everything you need for the first day or two. There are grocery stores not too far but once you get there you won’t want to leave. Natasha brought us in dinner the first night and it was delicious.

Amazing retreat for two!!

This place is truly amazing! The house was perfect for the two of us on our 25th anniversary trip. The views are simply magical! There are so many fish to see while snorkeling 20 feet off this beach in front of the house. There were also two huge lobsters that we saw right in front of the house. And to say you are secluded is an understatement. The island of Eleuthera was so beautiful that pictures or words don’t do it justice. We visited 10 beaches in our week stay and they were all unique and amazing. The driving on the left side of the road was quite the experience too lol. We cant wait to return for another adventure at Two Dunes!

Beautiful home on secluded beach

The home was extremely comfortable living on the beachfront for the week. I think the beach was perhaps the best on the island. Gorgeous sunsets from the back deck with a bottle of wine and sunrises on the front with a cup of coffee. The beach is extremely private and secluded as we saw maybe a half dozen people all week. The place comes with two ocean kayaks which were fun to use in exploring the local reefs. Also an outdoor BBQ for grilling that freshly caught fish. Kitchen is well equipped should you choose to stay in and cook your own meals. Definitely will come back again.

Our Third Time

This place is magical, and just keeps getting better. Updates to the interior and appliances were pleasant. Make use of Island Farms nearby - you'll want to stay here as much as possible and enjoy the privacy of your own coral pool.

There’s no way to describe the beauty and seclusion Two Dunes offers. It’s truly a private paradise. Once you arrive there’s no reason to go anywhere else. Natasha the house manager is the best. We plan to return as often as we can!

Two dunes stay

No jetted tub as advertised, curtains very dirty, one long power outage and two short ones (which means no water usage and had to use a bucket of water from the ocean to flush toilet). Generator never started the entire stay even though a repairman came out to fill an empty propane tank. Reported to Natasha several times and responses were slow or not at all. Enjoyed the seclusion and views and Rachel was pleasant to deal with. Felt like the property was overpriced.

Pros & Cons

We stayed at Two Dunes for a week and had a nice time. Like any place, there were pros and cons. Pros: Absolutely gorgeous view from the house! Literally two walls of windows, and it was so peaceful to sit and watch the water, birds, etc. The unit was perfectly sized and appointed for two people. We loved the central location on the island, which made it easy to explore north or south. And the position of the house with the ocean on one side and the lake on the other was great. I’m a bird watcher and the variety of birds on the lake was incredible!Cons: The mattress, while newer, is REALLY firm. A mattress pad would go a long way toward alleviating soreness. The water situation… We’ve visited other Bahamas out islands before and are familiar with use of cistern water, but I will admit that the coloration of this water was a little off putting (ever so slightly yellow/brown, like very weak tea). Other places we’ve stayed with cistern water, the cisterns are usually buried so the water isn’t exposed to light. Insects… There was an abundance of super teeny tiny bugs (looked like ants, but smaller) crawling around the kitchen sink and bathroom. I totally understand that this is the tropics, and these insects were so tiny, it would be virtually impossible to keep them out. But maybe spraying more regularly would help? They were present when we arrived, and we were meticulous with cleaning, food storage, kept food waste in freezer, etc. Just something to be aware of.

Better Each Time

We thought the property was perfect last year. Well, we were wrong. Spruced up deck with some new boards, and a fresh coat of paint all around. The back porch with covering is completely redone, looked like a lot of work...everything so well done, 2 thumbs way up. We are looking forward to next year. P.S.: Thank you Natasha for helping with the rental car, best one we've had so far.

Terrific vacation away with just my wife. Place was everything we expected and more. Certainly private and secluded. We might have seen 10 people in our six days. I definitely overpacked! I would recommend this to anyone looking to reconnect and just enjoy each other’s company.

This cozy little house was awesome! The view...you can't even put into words. AMAZING! We enjoyed nice long walks on the beach. Property was very secluded though we did see several people walking along the beach. I would highly recommend this property for a couple looking to reconnect and spend quality time together. Natasha was extremely helpful and responded quickly to all our inquiries. Rachel, thanks for sharing this lovely home with us!

Amazin

Property was as described. Gorgeous gorgeous views, beautiful soft pink sand, blue ocean waters, I loved falling asleep to sound of waves crashing on rocks. Convenient to grocery stores in Tarpum Bay and Governors Harbour as well as many beaches. Bed was fabulously comfortable, kitchen well supplied for cooking in. Only recommendation would be a few new knives or a knife sharpener. Natasha was a pleasure to work with and so helpful to us. No issues with our stay, would love to stay again in future if Rachel would have us.

Exquisite

We have been to Eleuthera a number of times. This was the best by far. The house was nice and clean. The beach in front of the house is one of the best on the island and it's private! The only people we saw were a couple of people around the bend to the right of the house (when facing the house), but they didn't hang out just waded out and then left. This happened several times. We think it's because the eleuthera beach book describes a unique tidal pool there which they were looking for. However it doesn't seem to exist anymore. We will definitely stay here again on our next trip!

Fantastic Location

My husband and I decided to spend our Christmas holiday on Eleuthera and Two Dunes was a fantastic location to just sit back and relax. Rachel was very responsive to all of my questions leading up to our stay. When we arrived, we found that the house had everything that we could need. We did experience one issue with the generator which was very quickly resolved by Natasha and we had no further issues after. The only reason I'm giving an overall 4 stars instead of 5, is that the bed is way past its lifespan and needs to be replaced. Unfortunately we woke up daily with back and neck pain and while the bed is not the highlight of the house, a good night's sleep is crucial for fully enjoying your stay. Bed aside, we loved the location and would happily stay again.

Beautiful house on the beach

This home and property are incredible for anyone that enjoys beaches and the ocean. I visited over a dozen beaches on Eleuthera and the “private beach” right in front of the house was easily the best. And if you like privacy, this is the place to stay. We barely saw a single person during our stay. Thhesunrises are incredible each morning while enjoying coffee on the porch or wine during the sunsets. The house comes with many beach amenities as well as two kayaks. I had an incredible experience kayaking in front of the house accompanied by a pod of dolphins and sea turtles. The house is very comfortable and the kitchen has all the amenities necessary should you decide to cook. A barbecue was also nice to cook the fresh fish we bought back from the local market. I would not hesitate to return again.

We fell in love with the 'family' islands in the Bahamas after a trip to Exuma. So much so we wanted to own a beach house on one of them. After sampling several islands we decided that Eleuthera was the best for us.
