Roomer

The Cove Eleuthera

Gregory Town, Bahamas
$900-1800+/ noche

Reserva esto si You want a secluded, celebrity-style hideaway where the ocean is your front yard and you don't mind paying a premium for silence.

Por qué a la gente le encanta

  • Two private, white-sand coves that feel completely yours
  • The infinity pool that blends seamlessly into the turquoise horizon
  • Villas with floor-to-ceiling glass that makes you feel like you're sleeping on the beach

Resumen rápido: A stunningly beautiful, remote escape that charges five-star prices for service that operates on a very relaxed 'island time' schedule.

Reseñado por @destinationsbyj: I stayed in the Beachfront King and the proximity to the water is unreal. Stepping off my private deck right onto the sand was the highlight of the trip. It’s the perfect spot if you want total peace and quiet.

Lo que dijeron los huéspedes que se hospedaron aquí

The hype

Guests are obsessed with the physical beauty and tranquility but divided on whether the service justifies the $1,000+ nightly tag.

Reality check

The 'resort fee' covers gear you might expect to be free at this price point, and food/drink prices are eye-wateringly high ($20+ cocktails).

  • You are comfortable driving on the left to explore local spots
  • You prefer the sound of waves over a DJ set
  • You are okay with 'island pace' service (slow but friendly)

Limpieza y Mantenimiento

8.5
  • Housekeeping: Generally excellent daily service, though some guests report missed details like restocking coffee.
  • Bathroom hygiene: Mostly sparkling, but isolated reports of mold in shower grout in older units.
  • Maintenance: Grounds are manicured to perfection; room interiors sometimes show wear (scuffed paint, loud AC).
  • Linens & towels: High-quality, plush, and replaced generously.
  • Odors & scents: Fresh sea air dominates; no masking fragrances used.

Genio de Habitaciones

Mejores opciones

  • Standalone cottages to avoid the 'thin wall' duplex issue

Habitaciones a evitar

  • Duplex suites if you are a light sleeper (shared walls are thin)
  • Garden view rooms if you came for the ocean (the upgrade is worth it)

Genio de Solicitud de Habitación – copiar y pegar

“I am a light sleeper and would prefer a standalone villa or a unit on the end of a block to minimize noise from neighbors. A top-floor unit is preferred if standalone is not available.”

Consejos de Insiders

    Buy alcohol at the duty-free shop at the airport before arriving to save significantly.
