    Even though there were a few hicups, the stay was nice. Plenty of towels, snorkling gear, floats, I left some new ones in pkgs. Parking was not the best. I would stay there again or reccomend it to someone else.

    We spent a week here as a family with 2 kids and loved the cottage (and Eleuthera). Spaceous appartment, two bedrooms, two bathrooms, well equipped with all we could need, plus fins, deck chairs, hammock, and just steps away from beautiful Rainbow Beach, always good for a dip in the morning or evening. From here all of North and Central Eleuthera is easily reachable. One of the books at the cottage was very valuable: A catalogue of beaches on Eleuthera provided us with many ideas, and the feeling we would need to come back to see the other 120 beaches ;-)

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed at Key Lime for 6 weeks Jan/Feb. it was an amazing experience. We loved the location. We spent a ton of time on Rainbow beach which was just steps away. The cottage was extremely comfortable and came equipped with everything and more!! Sarah and Brenda were responsive and so easy to reach. The place was spotless. Rainbow bay in general is the perfect location to enjoy the neighbourhood and the island. You cannot go wrong with rental. Don’t hesitate to choose Key Lime cottage.

    Beautiful cottage, all the amenities you need, lots of useful beach items (towels, chairs, cooler bag), and 90 seconda away from one of the most beautiful beaches on the island.

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Myself & my young daughter came back to the island for our 3rd trip. The house is beautiful. It is directly across from the Rainbow Bay Beach. We had 1 day where the power was out for about 5 hours but there were plenty of candles & a flashlight. Bottled water was provided. The master bed is very hard, but I made it work. Plenty of linens & beach supplies.

    This was our second trip to stay at Key Lime cottage...Nice Central location and right across the street from the best beach on the island..This unit comes with everything you will need.. It has a front deck that has a partial cover and is great for hanging out..Very few neighbors at this location , so its pretty peaceful..Down the Queens highway is stores big rock and east/final for food items and places to eat.. We at at Mels and got some food on the weekend from Brendas/Billys BBQ..Make sure you stop by Glass bridge bar&grill for one of the best views and the best conch fritters I have ever had...You might even see a stingray cruising around the bay...Caretakers Brenda and her daughter Lisa, were always helpful in answering our questions and sharing knowledge about island stuff...Yes, gasoline was 6.24 a gallon and food is expensive, but eating out was pretty reasonable..We love this island for the quiet beauty there.. No fast food places, Starbucks or condos lining every beach..You might just be the only one on the beach.. We would stay here again on our next trip...

    It was a nice place. Across from the beach is convenient too. Just about everything you need for a comfortable visit. AC worked well. I would certainly recommend the place. I was ok with the bed but my said she was not comfortable in it at all. Only issues they need to address is they really need a set of new sharp knives and a sink stop that works. Also the TV was not working at all . We had to stream online on our devices the whole trip.
