Paradise :)
This was our first trip to the beautiful island of Eleuthera and Eleuthera vacation rentals and our onsite contact Misty were so helpful with planning from beginning to end! They made our trip stress free and we felt well taken care of! From helping me find the perfect flight and finding a boat excursion they were extremely helpful. The Simple Life was perfect for my husband and myself! Just steps from a beautiful beach! Stocked with everything you need and the beach chairs, umbrella and cooler were icing on the cake! In walking distance to La Bougainvillea (you can make reservations on-line) where we had dinner twice and a quick drive to Tippy's where we also ate twice. Close to grocery and farmer's market. We beach hopped everyday, but for us the beach at The Simple Life was the best! Also visited The Ocean Hole, Lighthouse Beach, Queen's Bath and took a boat to the sand bars and Cape Eleuthera for a great lunch. If you stay at The Simple Life, you will probably be checked on by the neighborhood potcake. She came by every morning and evening to check on us, but never overstayed her welcome! :) Whether you are relaxing at The Simple Life, or exploring the beautiful island, Eleuthera for us was a slice of paradise and we can't wait to return!

Tranquil Anniversary Escape
We last visited Eleuthera 40 years ago for our honeymoon. Yes, there have been some changes, however it remains a destination for unspoiled beaches. The Simple Life Cottage was the perfect place to experience this. Watching the sunrise in the morning and seeing a million stars at night. Magical watching fireflies in the nature landscape. Also enjoyed the surprising visits from a friendly Potcake. White like a ghost, as quick as she appeared she would disappear. Explored the history and culture of the neighboring town, be sure and visit Governor’s Harbour for the Friday night fish fry. Thank you for sharing your little slice of Heaven on Earth.

Palmetto Point Ideal Location
We had a wonderful week at Simple Life which is in an ideal location in Central Eleuthera. The cottage has everything you need for a comfortable stay. I loved seeing the sun rise from the kitchen window and set from the back porch. Easy access to a beautiful, unspoiled beach was a huge plus. We appreciated the beach chairs, towels, and umbrella that Simple Life provides. We cooked many meals at home using the outside grill and kitchen appliances. La Bougainvillea is a short walk down the beach where we enjoyed dinner and drinks. We are huge fans of Island Farms which is a 5 minute drive away. Love the access to fresh produce, fruit, prepared foods, wine and homemade bread. One of our favorite beaches, Ten Bay, is 20 minutes away. Heading into Governor's Harbour is easy as well. Overall, we highly recommend Simple Life and its beautiful location in Palmetto Point.
