About this property

Our waterfront home has a magnificent view of the Caribbean Sea. Totally secluded, it's merely steps away from the crystal clear water. The elevated porch offers panoramic views of Balara Bay, Cupid's Cay, Levi Island, unbelievable sun rises, and spectacular sunset vistas.

Caribbean Blue has an open, airy feel to it and is tastefully decorated in a tropical theme equipped with all the amenities to ensure a comfortable stay. The house has two bedrooms: 2 masters with attached bathrooms. Enjoy paradise lounging beside the seaside, sipping a frozen concoction as the aquamarine water soothes your soul.

Easy access to the water is available from the property for fabulous snorkeling on Balara Bay. There is fishing right off the property for grouper and snapper. Levi Island is directly across from the house and is one of the island's bone fishing hot spots.

Governor's Harbour is a small, quiet town on the Family Island of Eleuthera, offering a collection of distinctive colonial homes, historic churches, and colorful Bahamian buildings.

You will find all the services you need in town: grocery stores, gift shops, post office, banks, gas station, dive shop, liquor stores, an internet cafe, and bakery. There are also several good local restaurants to chose from and a few local bars.

There are no casinos or flashy nightclubs on Eleuthera; the island has a sedate, relaxed atmosphere.

The island of Eleuthera is 110 miles long and is, on average, only two miles wide. The entire island is ringed by spectacular beaches, most of which are hidden and totally secluded.

There are many interesting settlements up and down the island. In addition, you will be able to enjoy fabulous fishing (deep sea and bone fishing), snorkeling and scuba diving, shelling, or you can just relax on the elevated porch.

Absolutely amazing!

Caribbean Blue is an awesome place to stay. The location is stunning and the house has everything that you could ever need during your stay. It's hard to tear yourselves away from the house as its so relaxing, but Eleuthera has some stunning beaches. Very romantic too.....My husband to be proposed to me here...I said yes of course!

Paradise

The check in and out process was extremely easy. The property is amazing. My husband and I have stayed several places in Eleuthera and Caribbean Blue is our favorite. The best snorkeling and fishing was right in front of the house. The caretakers and owners were great and answered all questions we had immediately. We definitely will stay there again.

Perfection!

Caribbean Blue We just returned from our 2 week stay at Caribbean Blue. This was our second time travelling to Eleuthera and we have definitely found our perfect oasis. This home is built with care and craftsmanship. Everything you could possibly need is there: kitchen supplies, comfortable beds, good air conditioning, water toys and the most lovely caretaker, Lachadra. Located on the Caribbean ( bank side), you can slip into the calm glassy multi-hued blue water within 1 minute of waking up. The sunsets are are astounding and you can watch them from the safety of a spacious screened porch. Enjoy snorkelling, bird watching, observing fish jumping and a very artful garden. It's so tranquil and restorative with the best vibes ( the family that built and owns this house has imbued it with love). We will never stay anywhere else on Eleuthera. This home is in a wonderful location ( just 5 miles from shopping) and yet is completely private. We are so thankful to the owners for sharing their piece of paradise with us. Treat this home like it was your own--it's very special. We can't wait to come back!

Perfect return visit

This was our second stay at Blue Caribbean and hopefully not our last. We love the location in central Eleuthera. The view never gets old. Snorkling the water right in front of the home is still like an aquarium. Amazing sea life. The home is clean and has everything needed for a comfortable stay. The hill down is still a bit to maneuver but worth the trip for sure ...just part of the adventure! Thank you for sharing your amazing home , again!

Pressure Drop

Great stay at Caribbean Blue! Loved the house! The screen porch was great allowing Bahamian breezes to flow through the house. The setting was extremely private, yet close to Governor's Harbour. Proximity to excellent beaches was also a plus. We really like the center island location. The house was amply stocked with supplies. The winds were from the southeast with the waves too strong for our comfort level to kayak to Levi Island and to snorkel at the shore rocks. So we just went to the Atlantic side and enjoyed some of the most phenomenal beaches (French Leave (Old Club Med) and Twin Coves. Next time, I will bring some fishing gear to try my hand at fishing. Numerous locals and people in the guest book indicated good fishing right from shore at the house. We also recommend a four wheel drive vehicle--we rented a Jeep Grand Cherokee. The driveway is steep. Four wheel drive is just recommended if you want to get to the beaches and explore all the island has to offer. The Owner's Manual was extremely helpful providing great information about the house and the island. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and came back to the states with a more relaxed frame of mind.
