Cat Nap provided us with an ideal location to enjoy Rainbow Bay and Central Eleuthera. Briana excelled in getting back to us and resolving any issues we had quickly and efficiently during our 75 day stay. We thank you & look for to possible future stays.Cheers!
We had a wonderful weeks stay at Cat Nap. The cottage is neat and clean. It has everything you need. The AC works great and the kitchen is fully stocked with anything you need for cooking. We enjoyed our time in the cottage and itâs the perfect location to enjoy both ends and the middle of Eleuthera!
Cat Nap was just wonderful. Comfortable, clean and well equipped. The hosts were very communicative and helpful. A little gem in the paradise that is Eleuthera.
We had a lovely stay here. The place was easy to find with the instructions provided and the communication was good. Check-in was easy. This was a standalone house and felt private. I liked that they had a cooler and camping chairs that you could take to the beach. Having the AC on for our check-in was a very nice and thoughtful touch. Clean up rules were minimal though you should take the trash to the location they mention if you stay more than a couple days. I understand that they are about to make some updates to this property so this is based on the original set up/layout in September 2023. On my wish list for the update would be a larger TV and a larger couches for more people to sit comfortably, but this is just a wish list, it didn't affect our nice stay here. Bring cooking oil and pepper if you plan to cook.
Casa indipendente molto carina e ristrutturata con cura. Ottima posizione per visitare l'isola e vicinissima ad una spiaggia meravigliosa come rainbow bay. Solo due aspetti da migliorare, uno la fornitura di pentole e utensili cucina vecchi e limitati, difficile cucinare per una famiglia di quattro persone, secondo finestra centrale del salotto rotta quindi un peccato non poter approfittare a pieno dell'accesso al terrazzo e della brezza marina che potrebbe arrivare.
The cottage was clean and cute with a great price for my quick business trip.I am glad that I did not listen to one negative review with so many other excellent reviews for this cottage . I will definitely stay here in the future as business requires.
The property is as appears in the VRBO listing but, as a previous reviewer mentioned, shows a lot of wear. There is no potable water and after check in, was warned it could get me sick. A previous guest had shoved plastic bags in loose window frames, Iâm guessing to keep water out. Many windows werenât working and the glass door to the deck was inoperable. Sugar ants, common in the tropics, made cooking challenging and I recommend storing ALL FOOD AND ANYTHING WITH FRAGRANCE in the refrigerator. While the house is well furnished, some things, like the couch, are near the end of their lifespans. Clean, functional, but sagging and uncomfortable. A/C units, TV, and wifi worked well. Experienced two daytime power outages in one 5 day periodâ-not the fault of the owner but would make any remote workerâs day challenging.
The view and neighborhood were nice. Thereâs a cute beach within a 20 minute walk (most beach is private in this area). If youâre coming to get away from it all and are cool with a part house rental/part camping bargain, this is a great place. If you need to remote work or need safe, reliable drinking water, no.
When things didnât work, like windows, the manager was helpful and sent maintenance staff. However, is was disconcerting that anytime I brought up a challenge (like arriving to find many windows open and unsure how to close and lock them) I was asked, âWell, what did you do???â With so many repairs that needed a little TLC, I decided it was better to not raise the with the owner/manager.
I was frustrating to arrive at night and not have a bottle of water to drinkâand learn from a note on the wall the tap water wasnât safe to drink. The water cooler had been left unplugged and the remaining water in the base smelled unsafe to drink, with a bug floating in it. I spent a fair amount of money buying water every dayâan expense that the listing didnât make clear and the host didnât point out when I said this was my first visit to the island.
Instead, I left five days into a monthlong stay. Unable to find another place on the island within budget, I left the island. I didnât feel like, based on prior engagements with the host, like it would be a kind conversation talking about the challenges with the house.
To be fair, I donât think they typically house remote workers. If youâre just going to the beach every day, eating out at a lot, and budget for water, this place could be a good fit.
The price canât be beat. Excellent location, pretty exterior and interior. Open living area. Ample towels. Good breezy porch. Lots of cooking equipment. However, the mattresses are not sturdy â you can feel the springs and if there are two of you, you will roll into each other all night long. Every slight move jiggles the bed. Sofas are caving in as well. All from good use I imagine. Overall a good deal but more run-down than we expected. Ant infestation on counter. The Atlantic and Caribbean are both within a few minutesâ walk. Immediate responses from owner.
Enjoyed tlhe balcony view and breeze that kept the house pleasantly cool and open without having to rely on AC. Nice area to walk and close to several beaches and nice views of the entire rainbow area.
We loved Cat Nap! The house was much bigger than we expected and very comfortable. Itâs centrally located between Rainbow Bay and Governors Harbour and we truly enjoyed our three nights in this home
We LOVED Cat Nap and would definitely come back to this house again. Very clean!!
Cat Nap is a wonderful house to stay at! Beach chairs, cooler, towels, fully equipped kitchen, tv, WiFi...we had everything we needed! The only thing we didnât have is more time to soak up the sun and wiggle our toes in the sand!
My daughter and I loved our stay at Cat Nap! Easy access to cottage and centrally located to many great beaches, restaurants, and grocery stores. Eleuthera is an amazing and safe place to explore and the locals are so friendly and helpful!
