About this property

Brand New! Private Beachfront Cottage on World-Famous French Leave Beach

Just completed in 2023, Bica Bungalow is a stunning private cottage directly on world-famous French Leave Beach, the most sought-after location on Eleuthera.

Inside, Bica has a master suite furnished with a king bed that faces the sea through a large picture window and a pair of sliding glass doors.
The spacious great room also has ocean views throughout. The kitchen, finished in quartz and stainless steel, is fully equipped with a gas range and oven, refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, and all necessary cookware, dishes, and flatware.

The great room opens onto a large oceanfront porch furnished for lounging and dining. Walk across the yard and down a short path and you are on French Leave Beach, a mile-long crescent of pink sand with famously protected water.

Amenities include filtered water system, air conditioning, WIFI, washer & dryer, paddle boards, beach chairs and beach umbrella, and a whole-house back-up generator.

Bica Bungalow is just one mile from Governors Harbour, the main town on the island. Governors Harbour has grocery stores, restaurants, liquor stores, two banks with ATMs, a bakery, gift shops, a dive shop, and a medical clinic. It has a nice little collection of 19th century homes and churches overlooking a picturesque harbor. You can buy fresh fish and lobster every afternoon from fisherman at the town dock. Friday night Fish Fry in Governors Harbour is a street/beach party that brings together all the tourists and locals with food, drink, and dancing in the street. You won't want to miss it.

Nearby restaurant include Bacchus Fine Foods (gourmet restaurant and food store, which is walking distance), The Buccaneer (Bahamian cuisine with Caribbean-Chinese fusion), Tippy's (international and fusion), La Bougainvillea (international cuisine), 1648 Restaurant (Bahamian cuisine inspired by European influences), and Pascal's at Sky Beach Club (International cuisine with Bahamian influences), Da Perk (coffee shop and sandwiches),. There is live entertainment somewhere nearby almost every night.
