About this property

Cozy stone studio cottage on private pink sand beach

Double Bay is centrally located on Eleuthera, about 4 miles south of Palmetto Point on the Atlantic Ocean. The beach is a two mile stretch of pink sand with coral reefs dotted along the beach. It's a very private area with mostly large estate homes. We have 6 acres of land on the beach which we have left undisturbed except a clearing around the house and a path cut through to the beach.

This newly renovated stone cottage was the first structure on Double Bay. Repotly built as a fisherman's cottage, we unearthed the cottage from the bush, gave it a major overhaul, and ended up with a lovely, modern studio cottage with everything you need and more! The cottage is located toward the south end of Double Bay and may be rented alone or in tandem with Palms cottage. The cottage is surrounded by palmetto palms, with a winding path several hundred feet to beautiful Double Bay. The stone exterior is surrounded by wide covered porches with plenty of space for relaxing, dining, or a secluded outdoor shower. The exterior porches are a new addition to the original stone structure.

The interior is entirely new, from ceiling to floor. Tall wooden tray ceilings enhance the open floor plan. The open floor plan includes a full kitchen, bedroom and sitting area with a separate bathroom. A washer/dryer, air conditioning and ceiling fans are included. Our local craftsman built the kitchen cabinets and most all of the bedroom furniture. Local talent is further evident in the art and furnishings around the cottage. A fully equipped kitchen, all towels, linens and even beach chairs are included with your rental.

We have owned Palms cottage on the same stretch for 20+ years,. The homes are completely separate from each other and totally private. We have put the same care into the construction and will maintain the new stone cottage as we have Palms all these years. We are looking forward to welcoming new guests to share in the beauty of Double Bay

Paradise
This was our second stay and the property is perfect for a couple. We experienced one day of rain and the covered wrap around porch accommodated an afternoon of reading just perfectly. House is well appointed with dishware and cooking utensils. There were beach towels and some chairs to take to the beach. The beach you will almost always have all to yourself. Only negative was no wineglasses 😊

Perfect quiet getaway
The Stone Cottage was a perfect quiet getaway for my husband and I. The beach at the house was absolutely beautiful, the water was refreshing and we saw very few people. It’s super close to the Island Farm where we bought most of our groceries to cook. Kitchen was well stocked for cooking. Had a few Wi-Fi issues that Anne, the property manager, helped us with and was very approachable and gracious. If we ever return to Eleuthera this is where we will stay!!!! Thank you for a real good time!!!

Romantic getaway
This private property was the perfect solution to our vacation. As we traveled down the road to the property the sun was setting. I feared that we wouldn't be able to explore the outside. As luck would have it, we pulled in the driveway to catch the sun setting on the beautiful landscaped yard. The house was a little slice of heaven that we were looking for. It was clean and welcoming. The privacy of the location was at the tip of the spear for our relaxation. As we explored the beautifully manicured yard, we found an inviting trail. As we continued further, the crashing of the ocean basically called out to us. The trails end opened up to an outstanding sight. It was our own private beach, with pink sand and a small Island just off to our left. My breath was taken away by sight of it. The seclusion was just what we needed to connect to each other without distractions. The host was exceptionally nice and concerning that our stay was at its best. She was very helpfuland was only a txt and phone call away when we had questions. I would definitely book another stay, thank you so much for having us. A. Stewart

Why they chose this property

We bought our first property, Palms at Double Bay in 1995. We added the property to the north some 12 years later and discovered a small stone cottage buried in the bush, reportedly the first structure built on Double Bay. We didn't have the heart to tear it down so we contracted with a local builder and completely renovated the cottage, adding porches to the footprint. We are excited to offer this special cottage to guests as we have Palms for the past 20 years.

What makes this property unique

Palms cottage has always been a place of privacy and peace. When renovating the stone house we took great care in retaining its island flavor and the privacy of both homes. We cut a separate path to the beach and have begun a few plantings around the house. The south end of Double Bay is especially private because there are few homes there. The beach in front of the property is all sand and extends into the water on either side. And then there is Double Bay, a beautiful two mile stretch of pink sand.
