Il y a Internet haute vitesse privé dans toute la maison.

Notez s'il vous plaît:

- La maison est fournie avec quelques masques / tubas, mais si vous êtes sérieux en matière de plongée en apnée / en apnée, cela vaut la peine d'apporter votre propre équipement qui correspond parfaitement.

- Eleuthera est la vraie affaire! Si vous recherchez une expérience bahamienne désinfectée de type Atlantis, ce n'est pas l'île pour vous. Même la petite île pittoresque de Harbour sera très fréquentée / bruyante par rapport à Eleuthera. Si vous aimez la nature et la faune, les eaux claires, les plages sans empreintes, un peu de musique live, les habitants sincères et sympathiques ... vous trouverez ici un coin de paradis!

- Un certain nombre d’épiceries acceptent désormais les cartes de crédit et disposent de tout ce dont vous aurez besoin - à moins que vous n’ayez des exigences alimentaires particulières. Les prix sont plus élevés qu'aux États-Unis. S'il vous plaît demander ce qui vaut la peine d'apporter avec vous et ce qui ne l'est pas.

La salle de bain principale est partagée entre les deux chambres à coucher, une salle de bains privative pour les deux et chaque porte peut être verrouillée.

C'est une île tropicale avec des insectes tropicaux, dépendant de la saison et des précipitations. Pensez à utiliser un insectifuge pour votre confort. Toutes les fenêtres et les portes (barre deux) sont grillagées.

Vous pourrez faire de la plongée avec tuba, du kayak et pêcher des os - la plage de sable se trouve à 40 pas de la maison. Une promenade en bateau de 5 minutes vous amènera à la romantique île de Harbour, où vous pourrez dîner entre amis et célébrités, et constitue également un excellent point de départ pour vos excursions de plongée sous-marine et de pêche en haute mer. De nombreuses plages désertes et des attractions locales célèbres telles que le Saphir Blue Hole, les Queens Baths, la Preacher's Cave, la Surfer's Beach, les Grottes de Hatchet Bay et le Glass Window Bridge sont tous situés à moins de 20 minutes de route de Whale Point, tout comme Gregory Town festival annuel de l'ananas de renommée mondiale. À proximité, vous trouverez également d'excellents bars et restaurants tels que Ocean Tally, Daddy Joes, The Cove Resort, The Surf Shack et bien d'autres. Si vous ne pouvez pas vivre sans votre sport, demandez à Tiffany de trouver votre équipe préférée à la télévision au bar Daddy Joes.

La location comprend 2 kayaks gonflables et 2 jeux de tuba. Des planches à pagaie sont disponibles à la location. Le propriétaire se fera un plaisir de vous aider à organiser des excursions telles que des croisières à la journée, nager avec des cochons, des leçons de surf, des visites écologiques, ainsi que toutes sortes de connaissances locales.

Amazing place to stay!

We spent a week at the Lazy Turtle in the end of March and it was a fantastic experience. The house was clean, well maintained and in a lovely location, with a beautiful private beach just across the driveway and a lovely lagoon and canal in the back. We saw turtles, starfish and rays every day and loved the rooftop deck for relaxing and enjoying the sunsets and stars. Susan was amazing, making sure we were comfortable and making recommendations in the area. We could not have asked for a more relaxing vacation, and hope to return some day!

Making memories at Lazy turtle

The house is spacious with modern amenities, perfect for some relaxing days exploring Eleuthera, Dunmore Town or Spanish Wells. We spent our days along the water either snorkeling in the bay or beach combing on the pink sand beaches. Swimming with the fish and turtles were definitely a highlight ( steps from the access to the bay). Stargazing on the rooftop deck was the perfect way to end the day.

Beautiful home and location

House in wonderful location for quiet get-away. Small private beach, kayak, and snorkel near front door. Home very comfortable with lots of thoughtful touches. Wrap around decks on each floor of home w comfortable seating and beautiful views of ocean. If there are supplies etc. you can't do without, bring it - very limited options on island. Great local seafood and people!

Awesome stay!

K and I spent a week at Lazy Turtle in August. It was fantastic in every way!! Our questions were answered promptly before we arrived and we were checked on during our stay to ensure everything was good. The home was beautiful in a secluded area just steps away from the water. There was nothing we needed that the home did not have. We enjoyed the porches and rooftop deck and enjoyed taking the kayaks in the canal and around the bay. The bay is home to many turtles. Also saw sting ray and starfish. No need for an excursion to see them. Would we stay at Lazy Turtle again: absolutely!!

Paradise Found

This property and the owners of it are nothing but perfect. The pictures in the listing, as beautiful as they are, don't do this place justice. We spent ten days of peaceful bliss at this beautiful house and could not have wanted anything more perfect. There is no one for over a quarter mile in any direction except for turtles, fish and stingrays. The hosts were extremely helpful anytime my wife or I had any questions or needed any suggestions. We look forward to visiting again soon!

Amazing property!

My wife and I started here for the first leg of our honeymoon. It was exactly what we were hoping for! Secluded feel, amazing views, and super comfortable! Mark and his wife were extremely helpful in getting us set up properly, they even reserved our rental car on the island (which is necessary to explore everything). The house was also well stocked with pots, pans, spices which made cooking in this serene setting that much more enjoyable! Their recommendations and travel guide that gives all the local tips for restaurants, shopping, and water activities was spot on too! We can’t wait to go back!

Perfection

Lazy Turtle made our stay is Eleuthera amazing. The attention to detail in the house is astounding. A breathtaking view every morning and evening from the master bedroom was definitely a highlight. The kayaks were so much fun to use in the bay. Mark and Susan are very friendly and helpful. It was fun to talk to them and get their perspective and insight about the island. If ever given the chance to stay here, do it - you won’t be disappointed!

A dream

We were on the island for a wedding and a much needed break and were lucky enough to find the Lazy Turtle. Hidden away on the edge of the water line its an idyllic place to escape the world. The building is beautiful and modern with everything you could need and the most incredible views. The stunning little beach line is 100ft through the trees and is a dream. Quiet, full of sea life (especially the turtles) and hosts the most stunning views, especially at sunset. If you want to escape the world, be alone with your thoughts and the turtles, this place is perfect.

Incredible Water

The house has spectacular views!! We especially enjoyed the kayaks that come with house, as the beach & bay are a few steps away! We kayaked most days when it wasn’t too windy. We saw starfish, rays, and had the best sunset views in the bay from the kayaks, or the rooftop deck. The house is lovely and well stocked. Mark & Susan are both very responsive, and they have lots of recommendations for places to go, places to eat. You must have a car, because this house is a bit remote, but there are lots of people around, and a really delicious, fun Bahamian restaurant about 10 minutes away. You’ll also want a car to explore the island! The Bahamian people are so friendly and gracious.

The Perfect Island Experience

Out of all the rental properties myself and my wife have visited, the Turtle House is at the top of our list. From the moment we booked, our host/hosts were immediately helpful, responsive, and considerate of our needs and questions. I never factored in the importance of a truly gracious host, but boy did this property change my thinking. Mark, the primary host listed for this property, was traveling during our stay, and we had the delight of being greeted by his partner/wife Susan. She was by far the most accommodating and personable person that we have ever met in regards to out of country traveling accommodations. Both Susan, and Mark, went out of their way to ensure we had the knowledge, confidence, and insight, to explore Eleuthera as if it was our own familiar stomping grounds. Coming to the Bahamas, or any country outside your own can be an intimidating experience at first. Let me just say, any and all queries or concerns were IMMEDIATELY resolved. The home was so clean, you could eat dinner off of the floor. The property so perfectly nestled amongst the palms and greenery, that you feel as though you are lost in the jungle (in only the best of ways). Their private beach, and rooftop deck offer the best view of the sunset that you could imagine, with gin clear waters just beyond your doorstep. Don’t bother booking a turtle excursion, as less than 500ft down the beach is a literal sea turtle sanctuary, where dozens of turtles call their happy home. The perfect stay.

Absolute perfection

My husband and I booked a last minute getaway to Eleuthera. We knew next to nothing about the location before coming, but we absolutely lucked out with this property and the amazing hosts. It is hard to even know where to start to describe how wonderful, peaceful, and beautiful this home is. The location is perfection - it is secluded without being too far from restaurants, activities, etc. The views are exquisite both on the ocean side and the lagoon side. The home itself is immaculate. You can tell everything was thoughtfully constructed and designed. What made this even more impressive was that our wonderful hosts built the home themselves. The custom rooftop patio, the spiral staircase, the artwork - all thoughtfully picked and it showed. The pictures in their listing do not do it justice which I feel is a rare find. Our hosts - what wonderful humans. We interacted primarily with Susan during our stay and she made us feel incredibly welcome, just like we were old friends. They have such a love for their home and nature. Susan was so accommodating and helpful during our stay and it was truly a pleasure to get to know her. She and Mark pre-made a list of local attractions (both on the north end of the island and the south end), restaurants (both on Eleuthera and Harbour Island), contact information for car rentals, contact info for water taxi services and the ferry. The list goes on and on, but everything was meticulously done to a tee. I wish I could give 100 stars for this VRBO!

Turtles - just swimming by

We stayed in the Lazy Turtle with our two daughters, 14 and 16, and we loved it! It's quite exciting to drive the access road for the first time - it's rough and you wonder where it will lead you. In fact - into paradise. The house is surrounded by verdant plants and the palm trees rustle in the wind. The Lazy Turtle itself is awesome: The porches are visually beautiful and at the same time very comfortable for sitting there in the shadow and getting a little wind around your nose. The roof-deck is just amazing - especially when laying in the hammock or looking directly to the turquoise ocean. Inside you see so many examples for perfect joinery and other handicraft: It makes the house unique, beautiful and very comfortable. It ist also a great joy to cook in the kitchen. The beds are comfy and waking up and looking right to the ocean is without words. Although we normally don't like AC very much because of its energy consumption and noise we were grateful to have it since it was really hot and humid. As we had a precise control of the AC it was neither too cold nor too noisy, just pleasant. The bay and its clear and very warm water ist literally only a few steps away and is brilliant for swimming, snorkeling or kayaking. Before we came here I couldn't believe that we will actually see turtles in the water, just swimming by. But it's true. You can enjoy and observe the turtles with a calm conscience because you don't need to book any questionable tour or feed them.

Superb Hosts - Above and Beyond

I would like to thank Mark and Susan for providing not only us but everyone who has shared the experience at such a special place to stay while visiting Eleuthera. More importantly I would like to thank Susan for the assistance and over the top care, insight and knowledge she was able to provide us as we arrived as fairly severe weather was hitting the island. She's truly a remarkable and genuinely great person. So again, thank you so very much Susan! The home as well as the entire property are truly a gem. Comfortable, clean, relaxing, tasteful, and meticulously cared for in every manner. The use of space, decor, the outdoor living areas, and every last inch of the home were well thought out and well executed. To truly experience the property, you'll want to spend time there as the wildlife, harbor and tidal shifts provided constant trips of curiosity to the waterfront which is only a few steps from the front porch. You'll likely see turtles, and possibly a Ray or two as well. For first timers considering a trip to the island, there is a saying you should likely consider. 'Eleuthera, it's not for everyone!' It seriously may not be for you as well. Do your research and perform your due diligence about the island. If Eleuthera is for you and your family I couldn't suggest a better place, with better hosts to stay with than Mark and Susan from the Lazy Turtle. As for our family... Eleuthera is for us, as is the Lazy Turtle. I miss it already.

Ein traumhafter Ort, ein luxuriöses Haus, sehr lieber Vermieter

Dieses Haus ist ein wahrer Traum. Die Lage ist abgeschieden und in der Natur nur 50m vom Beach entfernt. Das Haus ist sehr sauber und sehr komfortabel eingerichtet. Es fehlt an nichts. Sogar Saucen, Tee, Wasser, Duschgel, Hygieneartikel und vieles mehr sind vorhanden. Handtücher und Badetücher sind auch ausreichend da oder können bei den super netten Vermietern nachbestellt werden. Es gibt diverse Terrassen um draußen zu sitzen (vor Mosquitos schützen), die schönste davon Istaufkommen dem Dach mit einem tollen Blick. Die Vermieter haben uns sehr liebevoll empfangen und haben uns jederzeit mit Rat und Tat zur Seite gestanden. Dieses Haus ist sehr zu empfehlen! Vielen lieben Dank an Susan und Mark.

Great house in terrific location

The Lazy Turtle is perfection. The house feels remote but is ideally located to explore everything Eleuthera has to offer. We could have spent the entire week snorkeling off their beach had we wanted to. We saw sea turtles, rays and even a bay shark just steps from the porch of the Lazy Turtle (there is a secluded outdoor shower to rinse off as well). The house features three beautifully decorated floors, one full, extra-large bathroom and a small powder room off the first-floor living room. The kitchen, dining area, and living room are open-plan. The two bedrooms on the second floor share the primary bathroom. The primary bedroom looks out onto the bay and has access to a large porch (there is another door off the hallway) that includes two chairs as well as a booth-style table for eating. Off the hallway is a spiral staircase that leads up to a small reading/napping nook and the rooftop patio. The sunrises and sunsets from the patio are stunning. There are binoculars for watching the boats on the bay, and we also brought a small portable telescope for star gazing. The rooftop patio has two seating areas and both have wonderful views. In addition to the house itself, the owners provide little conveniences you might not realize you need like beach coolers, two beach chairs and even an umbrella. There are inflatable kayaks and basic snorkel equipment if you need it. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook including some basic staples and plenty of drinking water (we brought reusable water bottles and filled them every day). There is no tv, but we found that to be an added bonus. The owners live nearby and were happy to answer questions. Even before we traveled they'd emailed with information on restaurants and grocery stores and even made rental car recommendations. This was a nice change from our previous experience with an owner who lived off the island. You can't go wrong with the house or the location of the Lazy Turtle.

Painstakingly perfect in every minute detail!

I found the property absolutely perfect. It is the most comfortable, luxurious house I could ever imagine. And yet it is extremely functional. Care has been taken in every single detail. It was designed, built and decorated by magicians and artists. I cannot say enough good things about it!

Weeklong stay at Lazy Turtle

If you are looking for seclusion, peace and quiet, endless stars and lots of sea turtles this place is for you. This was our first trip to the Bahamas. From the moment I first contacted Mark inquiring about the property until the day we checked out his communication was quick and helpful. Every single place we went or ate was based on his and his wife's recommendations. We've never had more attentive or helpful hosts. The house was probably the cleanest we've ever stayed in and this is a big deal to me. We had everything we needed and more in the kitchen and all the appliances worked perfectly. There is a regular cooler and a soft sided cooler you can take with you to the beach or on day excursions. We ate outside every morning looking at the view and listening to the frogs and birds. The master bedroom and bath were super spacious with plenty of room for our luggage, etc. The view from the bedroom will leave you speechless. The lighting in the house is amazing. Being a new house they thought out the lighting very well and I was impressed with that. We went to the rooftop every night and always saw shooting stars. You can see so far and with no light pollution you might see shooting stars on one side, but a storm moving across the other side with a good lightning show. The beach is small, but is soooo peaceful and there was room to get some sun. There are also inflatable floats and noodles, along with the kayaks and snorkel gear provided. The best part of all was all the sea turtles that are literally right off the beach. We did kayak around to the mangrove side and saw endless amounts of sea turtles and crabs. We were lucky enough to see a ray right near the beach one day and also while snorkeling a ways down the beach. We went to Eleuthera during off season so everywhere we went we basically had the place to ourselves. Mark did not steer us wrong on restaurants or gift shops. The location of the house made it doable to get to the ferry, Gregory Town, Governor's Harbour, etc. We drove as far as Governor's Harbor for dinner one night and it wasn't too bad of a drive, but you just have to be careful and go slow as many people walk in the road. We rented an SUV as was recommended by Mark since the road to the house is rough and after a rain there are good sized puddles. We loved our stay and highly recommend it. Susan and Mark made it easy for us and gave us great tips.

Simply magnificent

This was the quintessential relaxeling, unplugged stay. With nature as your neighbor, my wife and I had our own little private beach in a beautiful bay, we see turtles floating by to check is out was the only disturbance. A great neighborhood for a jog or just lounging on the upper deck watching the stars (lots of shooting stars during our stay), it had all we needed. The host go above and beyond to make sure we had all we needed with frequent contact to arrange a day on a boat or water taxi straight from the cabin to Harboour Island. Would love to come back. 5 stars

Heaven on Earth

Mark and Susan’s place is extremely clean and beautiful. They are two of the nicest people you will ever meet. They are very accommodating and quick to respond to questions. We spent 8 nights there and it wasn’t long enough. The view is gorgeous and the property feels very secluded but is still located close enough to restaurants and grocery stores. We would highly recommend staying here and we would love to stay again in the future!

Best VRBO Experience To Date

Stunning vacation house in an amazingly beautiful location. The house an immaculately kept, modern 3 story beach house, well-appointed with full modern amenities, with your very own private beach within 50 feet from the front door on one side and a saltwater lagoon on the other. It boasts hardwood floors throughout, with floor to ceiling windows in the living/dining room and master bedroom. With a wraparound lanai on the first floor and another half lanai on the second floor surrounding the master bedroom, with wooden benches and tables for outdoor dining. The third deck rooftop overlooks stunning views of both the crystal clear turquoise blue waters of the Caribbean and the salt water lagoon. The rooftop is well equipped for hosting, dining, dancing and enjoying drinks while watching the sun set. The house is ideal for a romantic getaway, and or family and friends get-together. Although the house has AC, it is not needed as the Seabreeze keeps the house cool day or night. On the ocean side and approximately 200 feet from your private beach there is a dock where you can catch a water taxi or take a fishing boat charter. Next to the dock, is the inlet to the lagoon that goes behind the house, which you can explore and fish with the kayaks provided by the host. Additionally, right at the inlet is a turtle sanctuary , where you can swim with sea turtles. The turtles will eat right out of your hand. The hosts were great and very helpful, providing local information (restaurants, sightseeing, shopping, car rental, fishing charters, etc.) and kept in touch throughout our stay to ensure all our needs were met without being intrusive. I have very discerning tastes and expect great service and demand nothing short of perfection. I don’t normally review unless the experience is completely lacking or it exceeds my expectations, this is the latter. I have visited over 300 cities in 76 countries around the world for business and pleasure and I can honestly say this was one of the best vacation experiences to date, truly a 5 star experience in every way. I usually don’t visit the same place twice, but was o impressed, I plan on coming back next year. I highly recommend this the Lazy Turtle. Mark & Susan, thank you so much for being such wonderful hosts and for an amazing experience.

Image de profil de l’hôte
My name is Mark, I'm a British die-hard Tottenham Hotspur (soccer) fan, and a big enthusiast of all things Eleuthera having had a home here for 16+ years. I'm always available by phone or email and am looking forward to going above and beyond to help you have the best possible vacation!

Pourquoi avoir choisi cet hébergement ?

This is a brand new property located in one of the most unspoilt and beautiful parts of Eleuthera and Bahamas. Off the beaten track, you will see very few people during your stay and have the beach to yourself, while the fine dining and nightlife of Harbour Island is only minutes away.

Quels sont les atouts de cet hébergement ?

The views of the turquoise bay are stunning from the house. Wake up to a wall of glass facing the water and sunbathe and relax on the large, shaded roof deck and other decks and balconies that add 2000sqft to the living areas.
