High Seas is a spacious, hilltop 2 king size bedroom, 2 bathroom cottage with wonderful views over the blue Atlantic waters. Whether sitting on the deck or inside the house you have a view of the water. Make a coffee and watch the sunrise from the deck or lounging on the sofas inside the great room.

The large, open-plan living area is airy and cool thanks to its high ceilings and many windows. There is AC in the living area and both bedrooms as well as ceiling fans. Solar power with battery back up so no problems with any power outages. Enjoy your meals on the 400 square foot wrap-around deck with two sets of French doors opening onto the deck. With the cool sea breezes, you can watch the waves breaking at James Point, fishing boats from Harbour Island, or a cruise ship sailing past.

The kitchen has luxury appliances, and a central island/breakfast bar for you to prepare your meals and socialize. The master bedroom has a king size bed and stunning sea views. It leads into a large spa-like ensuite bathroom with a spacious walk-in shower. The guest bedroom also has a king size bed. The caribbean-style guest bathroom, accessible from the great room, has a bathtub with a stand up shower.

Wireless high speed internet (Starlink) has been installed, and is available for your use. There is a 32 Smart TV as well as Apple TV and a DVD player.

There are two single person kayaks located at Rainbow Bay Beach for easy access, four beach chairs, snorkeling gear, inflatables, noodles, boogie boards, beach towels and a large cooler (ice packs in the freezer) available for your use.

My fantastic housekeeper lives in Rainbow Bay and is available for any questions that arise during your stay. She also has a vehicle rental business and you definitely need a vehicle to explore Eleuthera and to get down some of the beach roads. I will happily arrange vehicle rental for you with pick up from any airport you arrive into.

'High Seas' is located on a very quiet road, with unobstructed views across native vegetation to the sea. At night, the only sound you will hear is the breaking of the waves on the shore, approximately 400 yards away. Look up and see the stars!

The cottage comes with bedding, towels, beach towels and a washing machine. You can dry clothes outside on the washing line. Dries super fast with great weather.

The property is situated in beautiful Rainbow Bay which is a perfect mid way point on the island so you can head North or South and easily explore. Rainbow Bay is a quiet beach community with a particularly lovely beach on the Caribbean side with palapas and kayaks as well as a very popular restaurant, The Rainbow Inn; it takes 4 minutes to walk to the inn restaurant from High Seas.

I have a copy of The Beach Book at the house. This will help you discover all the beaches although it will take a few vacations to see all of them!

    We loved this place! It was in a great location to explore the area and the entire island. We loved that it felt open and spacious with large rooms and ten-foot ceilings. The A/C cooled down the rooms very quickly when we returned at the end of the day. Jackie has thought of everything and there wasn’t anything we needed that we didn’t have. We loved that she had beach chairs and umbrella, cooler, and a tub of water equipment that made spending each day at the beach easy and comfortable. This home is decorated beautifully with a sophisticated beach vibe. Communication about this property and our stay was immediate. Laura who cares for the property was just lovely … and resourceful. We got stuck in the sand at The Cliffs and she saved the day, sending a someone quickly to pull us out. There was nothing we didn’t love about our experience at High Seas. We highly recommend it to everyone. We hope to be back again. We are already missing Eleuthera!

    We loved staying here. Jackie was so helpful and communicative, and got us hooked up with car (necessary on Eleuthra). We loved Rainbow Beach, which is a quick drive from the house, as well as eating at Delish (our favorite restaraunt). AC in the bedrooms works great -- and the view at night from the back deck was transcendent -- so many stars! Yes, Eleuthra is a bit rustic as an experience, but the property is lovely and the calm is addictive. Will definitely be trying to return.

    This was my lifelong dream vacation spot. Jackie has a beautiful home in a great location overlooking the Atlantic Ocean side of the island. Her home is everything as described online. The bed was so comfortable. Very well kept and clean. Nice large kitchen with updated appliances. Jackie responded quickly for any questions.This offers the comforts of home and privacy. Sunrises and sunsets are the best from the balcony and dining room table. Enjoy yourself future guests. If I could give 20 stars I would.

    My wife and I loved our stay at High Seas. The property is exactly as described, but I want to emphasize how peaceful it is—perfectly safe and serene, with only the sound of waves (and frogs!) in the background. Even during the strong winds from Hurricane Erin passing not too far from the Bahamas, the house remained completely quiet with all windows closed. Communication with Jackie was smooth and effortless; he accommodated all our requests and provided plenty of helpful tips for exploring Eleuthera. Starlink worked perfectly, too. We definitely recommend this property.

    A conveniently located beautiful house over looking the Atlantic. Pictures are accurate as far as all the amenities and set up of the house. Given the central location, it was easy to go either North or South. Super quiet and private location with the hushed sounds of the Atlantic waves arriving on the shore in the background, along with birds chirping and little lizards communicating with one another. At night, look up and all you see is stars...spectacular. Everything worked in the house perfectly. I don't know if the power ever went off as the solar back up system was in place. The rope swings on the porch were great to sit in and contemplate life while reading a book and having a coffee. We used the kayaks which was great as well. Kitchen is outfitted with everything you need and more. The floor plan maximizes the light and the views in the Great Room and the bedrooms were generously sized (especially the Master and the huge master ensuite). We'll be staying here again for sure. Laura and Jackie were very responsive to our inquiries and were always very helpful with tips and suggestions. Thank you for making our 2025 Bahamas trip the best ever!

    Staying at the High Seas was the cherry on top of a beautiful vacation at Eleuthera! Before I even booked our stay, Jackie was SUPER helpful answering all the questions I had... rental cars, weather, airports, etc. Booking a vacation out of the country can be stressful, and Jackie made the process super easy! We also booked our rental car through Laura's housekeeper, which was convenient. The house was spacious, clean, cozy, and most importantly, a 2-minute drive from Rainbow Beach (this was our favorite beach!). The house even has a deck, which was great for eating meals outside and watching the sunset. If you are thinking about booking the High Seas... do it! Thank you Jackie for a relaxed and much needed vacation!

    Our stay at High Seas was nothing short of spectacular! The house itself had everything we needed and was in a beautiful and secluded area but super close to Rainbow Bay. The house was just as pictured…open and so bright and the view of the ocean was beautiful! Just as important was the communication we had with Jackie. She was responsive and so nice and provided us with great information about the house, the area and the island. 10/10..highly highly recommend !!!

    We enjoyed our time at High Seas. The house is just as described and the help assistance from Jackie and her local contact Laura made our time there as easy as possible. Rainbow Bay beach is minutes away with an amazing beach and in our experience one of the best beaches on the island. Don’t miss dinner at the “Front Porch” the food and hospitality are excellent.

    This was our second trip to Eleuthera and it’s the kind of place that has you looking at real estate and thinking “can I just move here?”We booked this property before we left on our last trip because we wanted to stop by and see the outdoor area and the road to get there. Some places on Eleuthera are difficult to get to and I was wary about that for our next trip. Super easy to get to and the house had everything we needed. We cook most nights and all kitchen utensils and appliances were exactly what we needed. The hammocks on the deck were one of my favorite things. We had a couple days of crazy rain and wind, and the house had games which was really nice. Jackie also checked on us during the crazy weather, which speaks a lot about her as a host. She always answered questions quickly and had a lot of helpful information. The place we stayed previously advertised beach chairs and beach gear that ended up being in unusable condition, so we were thrilled that High Seas had beach chairs in great condition with an umbrella and coolers. The kayaks were also awesome! We would definitely stay here again. The beds were comfortable and the location was great. Thanks Jackie!

    We had an amazing stay at High Seas ! Right from the get go the communication with Jackie was comforting genuine. The location high over the Atlantic gave you great views of passing Cruise Ships with the sounds of crashing waves that added to your morning coffee on the deck. The constant breeze kept the noseeums away at night allowing you to enjoy the outdoor space after sunset. Beds were both kings and comfortable and bedrooms were very large. The kitchen had everything you needed with an added bonus of an electric grill for BBQing outside. High Seas came with two kayaks which were located right at Rainbow Bay Beach making it easy to use. The beach chairs were in perfect condition which was important for great beach time. One of the issues with Eleuthera is the constant power outages and internet disruptions. Highs Seas has solar power and Starlink which offered uninterrupted comfort which is so important for a great vacation. If you are active and enjoy long walks on quiet roads then High Seas in Rainbow Bay is ideal. Looking forward to our next stay !

    We had a super time, despite the weather being a little chilly. House was comfortable with nice deck and great view and very quiet. Were games, chairs and snorkeling gear. Not much of a yard for kids to run around if you have them, though we did not see many yards available. Beaches we saw were stunning. Definitely need a car with 4 wheel drive and with decent clearance. Some of beaches are hard to get to. Recommend you stock up on groceries near airport in North before heading south. Do not recommend driving at night, very hard to see, no lines on roads, gps a must.

    Our stay here was great. The host gives you so much inside information about the island, the beaches, local restaurants and businesses, etc. It felt like having a personal guide to Eleuthera. The home is comfortable and has lots of amenities like beach chairs, snorkels and masks, and an umbrella you can use which makes the beach experiences even better.

    Spacious and well decorated! with all the basic necessities & more (the beach chairs and cooler came in real handy).The guide with its instructions and so much information on the island as well as the guest book helped us in making choices of what to do and see during our stay. We also appreciated the comfortable king bed and the huge balcony with ocean view! All at a very reasonable price which helps as the island is expensive!
