Latest reviews on Eleuthera island's beaches

Windermere Island beach
10 Riley Brook

Our experience at Ocean Daze was absolutely incredible. The house that Miranda and her husband constructed is truly stunning. We adore the seclusion of the island, the pristine blue waters, and the picturesque pink sand beach. Miranda went above and beyond in assisting us with dinner suggestions and ensuring that we had all the necessities. We have already made reservations for next year!

Princess Cays beach
10 Melinda Rivers

This beach is absolutely stunning! The water is incredibly clear and the sand is so soft. It's also a great spot for snorkeling. I highly recommend taking a cruise with Carnival to experience it. I would rate it a perfect 10/10.

Cotton Bay beach
10 Quill Ross

I've been to many breathtaking places around the world, from Bangkok to Brazil, Monaco to Machu Picchu, but nothing can compare to the beauty of Jack's Bay. It truly is a paradise on earth. I'm excited to witness the growth of this hidden gem.

Gaulding Cay beach
10 Palshri Medic

This tranquil and serene beach offers a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Its pristine beauty is a sight to behold, and the peaceful atmosphere is perfect for those seeking a moment of respite. The stillness of the surroundings is truly captivating, and the overall ambiance is one of complete tranquility. This is a must-visit destination for anyone looking to unwind and reconnect with nature.

Lighthouse beach
5 Diana Stavena

We were quite disappointed during our second visit to the island when we decided to explore Lighthouse Beach, only to find out that the road had been rerouted and the actual point was 2 miles away, as indicated by the sign. It's a shame we missed out on the beach. On a positive note, we hope that the new development by Disney will bring some economic benefits to the area.
