You enter Salty Dolphin into the spacious, kitchen/living/dining/bar area, as well as a full bathroom with a spacious walk-in shower.  The 11’ quartz island, with built in oven and range with overhead ventilation, seats six comfortably.  The large dining area accommodates at least eight and also hosts a built in wet bar. This family room has a couch, love seat and chair, in addition to a large custom built-in cabinet, which hosts a 55” flat screen television.  The brand new, full sized, front load washer & dryer are located in a small laundry room to the right of the entrance.  The sliders to the rear deck, and the first outdoor dining area are located straight ahead.  To your right is the computer room (with wifi and VOIP phone) and access to the two first-floor bedrooms.  Both of these bedrooms have king size beds and full bathrooms.

The views from the deck are truly spectacular.  The ocean is 50 yards away and you can see the pure beauty of Eleuthera.
 
Just walk across the street and down our private path, and you’re on the beautiful pink sand of French Leave Beach (also known as Club Med Beach, for the Club Med that was located there many years ago).  There is excellent snorkeling off the southern end of this beach, a minute or two walk from the private path.
