A guest from Puyallup, WA United States recommends this vacation rental.

Well situated near Rainbow Bow Bay beach, one of the most beautiful and best swimming and snorkeling beaches on Eleuthera. Very clean and comfortable home. Well maintained with two bedrooms and two baths. Local management was very friendly and helpful. No problem with check in or check out. Home is in the nice neighborhood of Rainbow Bay and about five miles from the town of James Cistern which several small grocery stores.
Would stay at Key Lime Cottage again.

A guest from Punta Groda, FL United States recommends this vacation rental.

The Rainbow Bay beach is in a very protected cove. Its calm when other beaches are rough. Easy walk.

House was as represented, could use a bit of updating. Outside shower was great after coming back from swimming. The deck is very comfortable on hot afternoons when there is a breeze, you can hear the ocean, but only a sliver of water shows above the vegetation between house and beach.

Plenty of grocery stores, restaurants and beaches to explore north and south of this location. Prices were double what we were expecting for food, both in restaurants and grocery stores, the good news was there were no shortages.

A guest from Apex, NC United States recommends this vacation rental.

We have visited Eleuthera many times and always have a wonderful experience. The location of this house was great. The beds slept comfortable and the kitchen had everything you need. We could walk across the street to the beach and the kids could swim and snorkel and were always having fun!

A guest from Dillon, CO US recommends this vacation rental.

Take off your watch and turn off the phone..Time to experience island paradise at this location..Nice easy location and quick drive from airport. We were met my Brenda and Lisa, the caretakers, and they answered all our question..With off season and covid policy, there were not alot of places open..We ate several meals at Mels down the queens highway and of course you have to visit Brenda and Billys weekend BBQ meals...Some beach access is rough roads, but we went to blue hole in Rock Sound,Surfers beach,Cocodemama was right off the highway..Of course you have to visit Harbor island pink sand beaches.. We were the only ones on the beach, due to resorts being closed..Seemed like every afternoon we would end up at Rainbow Bay right across the street.. Nice clear water with swimming and snorkeling..Unit is nicely furnished and had plenty of water toys, coolers and other items you would was nice to have a house right across from the beach.. Most times we were the only ones at the beach and really nice sunsets... Looking forward to another visit to the friendly island of Eleuthera

Linda J. from United States recommends this vacation rental.

We just returned from a week's stay at the very comfortable Key Lime Cottage across the road from the Rainbow Bay Beach. It had all the comforts of home and was nicely decorated. The owner and caretakers were very responsive to any communication. The cottage is conveniently located 1 mile away from the Rainbow Inn Restaurant and close by to Big Rock General Store. We appreciated having a beach umbrella and chairs for spending our days at the beach. Thanks so much!

Jamey K. from Jesup, GA Unknown recommends this vacation rental.

Our stay at Key Lime was incredible to say the least. The location of the rental was placed perfectjust out of town that you felt you truly were secluded. The cottage was spacious and came with all the necessary amenities needed to make our home away from home a breeze.. Rainbow Bay being across the street was a slice of heaven. The snorkeling was amazing in the pristine terquiose water. We traveled the island from pointe to pointe, covering all 110 miles. The overall expense was a great fit for our budget and we will be returning.

Patricia T. from Lady Lake, FL United States recommends this vacation rental.

Perfectly located cottage! We loved having the beach right across the street! This island has so many gorgeous beaches and you have them all to yourselves. The cottage was perfect for our needs, and the caretakers friendly and helpful. They also have a great barbecue on Fridays and Saturdays! The restaurants we went to had great food but twice to triple the amount you’d pay in the States. Same for groceries. Be prepared for that. Otherwise would totally recommend staying at Key Lime Cottage!

Great home only steps from a great beach!!

clayton r. from Tulsa, OK United States recommends this vacation rental.

This house is very nice inside and out. The large porch gives a view of the Caribbean over the trees just across the street. The kitchen is well appointed with everything you need to cook your own meals. The grill made ribs and chicken an easy choice a couple nights. The washer/dryer got us home with clean laundry. We always shut the ac off when we left the house, but it would cool down in just a couple minutes when we got back.....if we even needed to turn it on. Many evenings our sunburn kept us cool enough. You are a very short walk down the road across the street to one of the nicest beaches we found on the island. The beach was never crowded and after a small rocky patch at the shoreline you can choose your depth to sit/stand in powder sand. There are several palapas to shade yourself. There are fish,fans,corals, etc around the rock outcropping on both sides of the crescent beach and out around the small island/peninsula, and it is shallow enough to walk all the way there. Should you want to brave the Atlantic side, which was quite rough during our stay, it is a short drive across the main road behind the house. You could even likely walk there in 10 minutes. Loved our stay and will definitely be back!

Beautiful peaceful and full of Love!

Steven S. from Poplar Grove, IL United States recommends this vacation rental.

This was my second time back to the island and what a beautiful area to stay on the island. Rainbow bay offered all the seclusion one would want and a great cay to snorkel with crystal clear water! The key lime cottage was perfect for the two of us, close to beach, close to restaurant as well as the Big rock grocery store. We were able to explore both the south and north sides of the island due to the location of the cottage. We will be back!

The location was perfect, right across the quiet street from Rainbow Beach. The house was great for 2 couples, a well stocked kitchen and nice front porch. The caretakers and owner were easy to contact.

My husband and I stayed at Key Lime Cottage for 21 days in April. The house was perfect for us! It is simple, well maintained, clean and right across the road from one of Eleuthera’s best beaches. The caretakers, Brenda and Billy Stubbs are so wonderful and helpful, the owner was also very nice. This was our 5th trip to Eleuthera and WE WILL BE BACK! We hope you get the chance to enjoy it too!

A guest from United States recommends this vacation rental.

Eleuthra is beautiful with many great beaches and good eateries.
Harbour Island and Spanish Wells made for a lovely excursion
You really need a car as getting around for us was difficult because we had no vehicle but relied on a friend to drive us.

Manager Responded on 2/19/2018

Here are the additional comments this guest asked me to post: Key Lime was a lovely very clean cottage close to the ocean just across the street. It was extremely quiet, and had many towels and other amenities like an iron beach chair which came in handy. Really nicely equipped!! Brenda Stubbs was very easy to reach when there were questions. I highly recommend this cottage.
