BLUE BAHIA VILLA

Our recent visit to Eleuthera in July/August was elevated by our good fortune to rent the Blue Bahia Villa on Ten Bay Beach. The property was fantastic in every respect from its setting right on the water to the array of amenities. The home was complete with everything you need. Several beautiful outdoor seating areas afforded spectacular views of 10 Bay Beach including a great screened in porch. Inside, all rooms were air conditioned with comfortable bedding and plenty of towels and attention to details.

The kitchen had everything we needed and the showers were upgraded with great pressure. An outdoor shower adjacent to the front deck made it super convenient and allowed all the sand to stay outside. The owners, Barbara and Luciano could not have been more accommodating and generous with their time and resources. And the Property Manager, Winnie and her husband James made themselves available every time we had a question. Winnie even picked up some fresh lobsters and delivered them right to our doorstep.

Ten Bay Beach is a top destination for both its beauty and privacy and staying at Blue Bahia Villa was the perfect place to enjoy our time in paradise. Five Stars all the way.

We have stayed for the past 3 years at Blue Bahia during March. You could not ask for nicer hosts, Barbara and Luciano. Their communication is incredible!! The house is gorgeous, clean, well stocked and they also have a generator that kicked on the moment power went out. Ten Bay is so relaxing. See you next year!!

My sister and I had a wonderful stay at Blue Bahia. The property is in an absolutely breathtaking location right on the brilliant blue waters of Ten Bay beach. You can literally walk out the back door and are in the water in 30 seconds. The kitchen was very well stocked with everything we needed to cook (and we cooked a lot while we were there). The house is very spacious with comfortable couches and beds and two large bathrooms. Everything was clean and tidy when we arrived. The house is also very well situated for exploring and shopping – countless beaches are just a 15-30 min drive away and Governor’s Harbour is just up the road. The property manager, I’m sure, would have been quickly available for any questions we had but nothing came up during our entire trip. Definitely hope to come back one day soon!

The house is so large we ended up using only the second floor. Decorated eclectically, we were constantly coming across little interesting pieces and flourishes. I won’t spoil it for you. One of our favorite spots was a private dining deck open to the bay. We ate most meals there. The private beach access made entering the bay effortless and if you take a short walk along the beach before sunset you can lay on the beach and watch it sink into the Caribbean. If you’re a sunrise person the Atlantic beaches are a short distance away. Also our gratitude to Mr and Mrs Williams the caretakers who greeted us on arrival answered our many questions and helped with any issues. They were efficient, friendly and genuinely great people. We had a great time and felt very comfortable. Highly recommend and are planning to return. Another plus is that the house has a generator as do their other properties, so power outages won’t infringe on your good time. I could go on, but as others have said it’s a very special place. Lastly we would like to thank our hosts Barbara and Luciano for being so caring and helpful. We should have stayed longer. Date of arrival – January 16, 2023

My wife and I had an amazing two week stay at Ten Bay Beach. The kitchen was well stocked and provided everything needed for preparing meals for our stay. We cooked quite a bit and were pleased to have a nice kitchen. The water at Ten Bay Beach is spectacular, as other reviewers have stated. We did have a tropical storm go by to the north of us the first week, but Barbara and Winnie both checked in on us to make sure we were OK. Just a little wind and rain. Unlike many houses on the island, Blue Bahia has new Lennox AC mini-splits that worked perfectly. We slept well at night in a nice cool bedroom. The screened porch and deck made great spots for morning coffee and afternoon cocktails. Best of all, you walk out of the house and right into the amazing water of Ten Bay Beach. We’ve stayed in other houses on the island, but we’ll back back to this one. Thanks, Barbara!

We had a fantastic couple of weeks at Bahia Blue. The house is excellently equipped, comfortable, and in a great location, right on the beach and a short distance off the main road that runs the length of Eleuthera. Highly recommended for anyone looking for somewhere to stay on Eleuthera.

My family of four (kids ages 8 and 12) stayed for 3 nights (it was supposed to be 5…long story). We had more than enough room for us, and could have easily found plenty of space for at least two more (the 7th and 8th beds are in an open area, which is fine for kids). Barbara’s house is beautiful, clean, and we had everything we needed. The beds were very comfortable (medium support) with soft sheets and covers. The master bedroom upstairs is like a dream – I was happy just laying on the bed and looking at the view of the blue water and peaceful, usually empty beach.

The Caribbean side is great for kids, as the water is shallow (like ankle-knee deep) for a long ways out and there are plenty of sea creatures to discover. You can snorkel right out back. I could go on and on…my only regret is that we were not able to stay longer. Book a full week as Eleuthera is hard to get to (unless you are in Florida or Atlanta). Also be prepared to fill out lots of online forms for the health visa as long as it is required for Covid. Try to get your antigen test the day before you leave in case flights change, etc.

My husband and I just had an amazing stay at Blue Bahia. There is no way to describe this slice of heaven accurately. Barbara’s home was warm, clean, well kept, comfortable, well appointed, and the perfect place to relax and unwind. Barbara herself was attentive and responsive from beginning to end, and her caretaker, Daniel, was a warm and welcoming friend to start and end the visit with.

We had our own private paradise for the week. The bay water was an incredible turquoise, crystal clear, calm and inviting. You can wade right in, kayak, snorkel, walk down the secluded sandy beach, or lay in the warm sand with hardly any other people. You feel safe and welcomed by everyone you meet along the way. Sunrise coffee and sunset beverages on the upper deck….like I said, Heaven.

We highly recommend not just this PERFECT location, but this specific property. It has everything you would want, in a location you’ll never forget. Thank you Barbara for an AWESOME BAHAMIAN EXPERIENCE!!! Happy New Year!!

This whole experience with renting this home was amazing. The property well, the pictures do not do the views justice. Its a great area with everything near by. The owners and the property managers are beyond helpful and easy to work with and accommodate everything you need ( within their abilities) remember not everything is easily available on the island.

With the COVID-19 outbreak and all the stress of our flights being canceled and given different flights that affected our days of travel they were so helpful and understanding. The travel visas were a process but, very easy to do to accommodate requirements for covid-19. We so enjoyed our stay and will absolutely be staying again!!!! It was just my husband and I for the stay but would be great for a family!! Was a geat birthday vacation home!
