Holiday houses in James Cistern Beach

This charming cottage in Rainbow Bay, Eleuthera, is the perfect island retreat! Nestled in a peaceful setting with breathtaking ocean views, it offers a cozy and well-appointed space for relaxation. The location is very nice, just minutes from beautiful Rainbow Bay Beach and local dining spots. Toni and Alex were quick to reply to any of our messages leading up to the stay and their property manager was very kind when we messaged her during our stay as well.

I had such a lovely stay—exactly what I needed for a relaxing and simple solo trip. The space was clean, peaceful, and felt like a little home away from home. Everything was just as described, and I really appreciated the thoughtful touches. Thank you for creating such a welcoming and restful environment.

Perfect Stay in a gorgeous well-appointed home. Stunning views, Bright open space with everything we needed for our stay. Comfy beds and couch, lots of outdoor space for relaxing or dining. Communication was great and I've already booked my trip back!

We had a wonderful time during our stay here. They were very responsive when we had questions about the area. We employed Denny to take us on a tour in his boat and it was awesome. He has lived here all his life and is very knowledgeable about the area and especially what the sound and ocean has to offer. We did a 4 hour excursion and did some fishing, explored a plane wreckage, gathered some conchs, swam with turtles and enjoyed some conch ceviche on the boat. The location is great as it puts you centrally in the island for trips north or south. We would come back here if we visit in the future.

Sadly we left Thea's place in Harbour Island/Dunmore Town today, and we can't wait til the next trip back. The unit felt like home the second we entered it -- we loved the location (no bad location on HI but this was perfectly situated near both the bay and beach), the cleanliness, the comfort of the bedrooms, and the correspondence with Thea who was incredibly thoughtful and responsive the entire way from booking to check-out. She was an amazing host in every way. Thank you for an amazing stay...

The pictures and description are perfect, it's exactly as wonderful as it looks. Thanks to Mary Morgan and Todd for doing such a wonderful job maintaining their property and sharing it with us. A few notes for prospective guests--there are plenty of spices and pots/pans for cooking, towels for exploring and linens for sleeping/relaxing. You're as comfortable here as you are at home, except you're in Eleuthera so it's probably much better. Power was reliable and the wifi was flawless (if that's important to you). The path down to the beach is magical. We had a week of onshore wind and next to no surf, but there's plenty to do otherwise. You can get by here without a high clearance vehicle if you drive carefully, the roads to the house are in pretty good shape, though for many of the places we visited that's not the case. I can't recommend MM and Todd's place any more highly.

My husband and I stayed at the Bird Cage for a quick wedding anniversary trip, and it was a wonderful experience. The Bird Cage was immaculate, with a modern and tastefully decorated interior. Although we spent most of our time indoors, the location was convenient, being just a short drive from Governor's Harbour, ATMs, shops, and more. Check-in was very smooth, and Solivia graciously allowed us to arrive early. She personalized our stay with a beautiful welcome message, wine, candles, and drinks in the fridge. The kitchen was well-equipped, making it easy for us to prepare meals at home. We felt so comfortable and relaxed that we didn’t want to leave. We would definitely recommend this place to couples looking for a relaxing and private getaway. You won't regret it! Thank you, Solivia; we will be back for sure!

Great family vacation spot. We had a wonderful week. Sea turtles and rays greet you right off the beach as you paddle by. Perfect, simple Bahama get away.

This home was beautiful, serene, and perfect for our family! It’s always a treat to stay in someone’s home who has thought of everything… down to chargers, outlets and lights exactly where you want them. The kitchen and bathrooms were well-apportioned and the cooking tools and utensils made the home easy to navigate and enjoy. Wallace and Kathy were both responsive, helpful and offered really helpful suggestions. We loved it and would definitely suggest to everyone!
