Availability DetailsProperty Description
Med Point is the best 1 bedroom beach house on the best beach in the best township in Eleuthera. It is a ROMANTIC, SECLUDED AND STYLISH ONE-BEDROOM OCEANFRONT BEACHHOUSE, located on Casuarina Beach and just 100' from French Leave Beach (formerly also known as Club Med Beach for the Club Med resort that was located there in the 90s). It is on the point between the 2 beaches. No other properties are between it and world-famous French Leave Beach. It is a short stroll to Twin Coves Beach and its superb snorkeling reef. Med Point Beach House is like a lighthouse guarding the north end of French Leave Beach, which is the loveliest and safest beach in Eleuthera. In addition, we are only a 1 mile stroll to the center of town.
Med Point cottage has just one neighbor, a house across the road from it. Med Point's large oceanfront deck and oceanfront area are completely private, shielded from view by the cottage itself. The beaches on either side of Med Point are usually deserted.
The house was NEWLY RENOVATED in 2018 by a Governors Harbour's premier designer, with wood floors, Brazilian cherry doors, large Pottery Barn sofas, and new white tiled bathroom. Comforts include 400 thread-count sheets and Thomas by Rosenthal china, and minimalist decor. Step outside the glass doors, and you will see ocean spreading away as far as you can see.
Med Point beach house has a huge 1100 square foot teak wrap-around deck facing the beach and ocean, and all modern conveniences, with a full kitchen, great room, wifi and large sliding glass doors on two sides facing the ocean to maximize your view. It has a KING BED master suite. The dining area faces the ocean.The kitchen is well supplied with cookware.
Amenities include WIFI, ceiling fans, A/C, a TV with Roku (but no cable), a gas grill, and a washing machine. There is a picnic table on the deck, and sun loungers.
Med Point is also close to Tear Coat Cay, a small island offshore, where you can snorkel; also close to lots of reefs for other snorkeling. The water is gin clear, 100 feet of visibility, and we have seen parrot fish, groupers, rays and other exotic fish. The water is 75 to 88 degrees Fahrenheit.
The drive to Med Point, takes you for about half a mile, on a sandy lane through French Leave Beach, looking out to sea and giant cacti and palms. You will enjoy this splendid view of nature every day, as you go into town.
The famous bar/restaurant Tippy's is close, and there are upscale restaurants such as Sky Beach Club and 1648 Bar and Grill, Bachus Fine Foods within five minutes.
French Leave (Club Med) Beach stretches south for 1 mile: we are at the northern edge where it is quiet, with fewer tourists. Casuarina Beach, stretches north of us for another mile, and then Twin Cove beach stretches north for another mile or so. All of this can be walked along wide sandy pink beaches with excellent shelling. Or you can jog along the sandy path that is Old Banks Road and have wide vistas of white surf.
Most people who walk by Med Point, express regret that they are staying elsewhere! They tell us that they would like to spend their next holiday with us! Come and make your "couples vacation" a glorious dream.

Robert H. from NEW YORK, NY US recommends this vacation rental.
As others have previously stated, Med Point Cottage is an amazing location. It is thirty feet away from the surf with five floor-to-ceiling sliding doors providing a panoramic view. And yet, there is complete privacy. (There were no bed bugs.)
To the right is the well-known French Leave pink sand beach. It’s a mile long and we never saw more than six people on it the whole eight days we were there. To the left is Casuarina beach. It’s about a half mile long and we were the only people on the beach the whole time except for a couple of people on walks.
There is a large five-bedroom house behind the cottage (same owner) but you have almost no sense that it, or its occupants, are there.
We were met by Christine Rolle, the resident manager for both houses. She was delightful. She advised that the washing machine was being replaced, but then she immediately offered to do our laundry for us
The cottage interior has been thoughtfully decorated. Very simple. Very white. Interesting prints on the walls. The recessed halogen lighting creates a dramatic presentation of the space at night. There are three very silent ceiling fans and one very quiet air conditioner that do a fine job of keeping the house cool. Mentions were made about the firmness of the king-sized bed. We can confirm that is it very firm. We were fine with it. Others may not be.
The house is about a one-hour drive from the North Eleuthera airport and is ten minutes from Governor’s Harbor. Others have mentioned the rough road that must be navigated to get to the house. It is, most definitely, rough. A car can make it if you’re gentle, but having an SUV is a much better idea.
A few comments about shopping. There are two small grocery stores in Governor’s Harbor: Eleuthera Supply and Burrows. The selection at both is similar, but Burrows accepts credit cards whereas Eleuthera is all-cash. The availability of fresh vegetables and fruit is very limited. Very
Beautiful getaway

Emily H. from New Richmond, WI United States recommends this vacation rental.
We had a wonderful time at Med Point. It was the perfect getaway we needed. The big house next to the cottage was empty so it was very private. The Med Point cottage was very clean and spacious. It had everything we needed. We loved being right on the water and being able to walk the beautiful beaches everyday. Snorkeling right from the house was amazing! We will definitely be coming back!
Tips: If you fly in on a Sunday grocery stores close by 3pm so bring what you need for the first day. Bug spray is a most and needs to be applied early and often! Good water shoes will come in handy as the rocks by the water are sharp. We loved walking into town and stopping at the bakery, coffee shop, liquor/grocery store and dining at Buccaneers. The road to the house is rough so like others have said a SUV is nice but we could only get a minivan and it was doable. Remember you’re on island time so RELAX and don’t stress the little things. Enjoy!

A guest from Jacksonville Beach, Florida United States recommends this vacation rental.
Med Point was an absolute dream! Gorgeous views from every window, two of the prettiest and most private beaches on either side of you. You are also within walking distance to Twin Coves which is beautiful. The cottage was very coastal, bright and secluded! It had the necessities needed to make meals during our week stay. Sherri the caretaker went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable during our stay and answered any questions I had about the area. We really did not want to leave and hope to be back to Med Point on our next visit!

Gary G. from Hingham, MA United States recommends this vacation rental.
The Med Point Beach House is an amazing location straddling two beautiful beaches. It is perfect for those looking for a quiet escape. There is only one house close by and it was empty during our stay. We only encountered a few people during our daily walk of the beaches. The dirt road to the house is bumpy and best done with a 4-wheel drive vehicle. There is a large deck overlooking the beach, coral garden and a small island. The house is clean, well stylized with comfortable furniture, and fairly well equipped. It could benefit from better kitchen utensils. Albeit at little slow (as expected as there are no land lines), internet service was reliable.

Gary C. from Spring, TX United States recommends this vacation rental.
My wife and I had first visited French Leave Beach (Club Med) 35 years ago while staying at the Club Med. French Leave Beach is one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Club Med is no longer there but we were lucky to find Med Point Beach House. It's location is just steps away for French Leave Beach. The beach house was perfect for us. We like seclusion and we got it. We had a two mile stretch of beach to ourselves. We only saw one or two people a day walking the beach and no one else on the beach as far as you could see.
The house was great. Christine had it all ready. She brought us to the house and we were set for the week. We loved the house and the location. We have already booked a week next year.

Everything was fantastic. Nicely furnished, clean, right at the beach. Really enjoyable stay. The care taker Christine met us, we followed her to the grocery store and liquor store and she waited while we shopped. Followed her to the house and showed us everything. Would highly recommend!
Slice of beach heaven!

secily s. from austin, TX Unknown recommends this vacation rental.
The location of this rental is fabulous! I will suggest to rent a jeep to get to it. The proximity to two of the most beautiful beaches, French Leaves and Twin Cove, cannot be beat! It has most things for you. Depending on when you get there you might want to ask for coffee and filters. We got in later and didn't have it first thing next day. Make sure you bring good bug spray for the No See um'! This is just what you have to do in the Bahamas. It is close to all the restaurants and our favorite town Governor's Harbour. This is where you want to stay! The couches are comfortable and the place is the perfect size. The mattress is VERY firm. That is my only thing I wish they would get a better mattress bc it is like a board. Everything else is perfection! You must get a pie from Christine the property manager. They are DELICIOUS!
Manager Responded on 11/30/2021
We are so glad you enjoyed your stay at Med Point! I’m sorry to hear that the mattress was too firm for you. I’ve not had that complaint before. I will be sure to check it out when I’m down there next month.

Carey H. from SLC, UT US recommends this vacation rental.
This house is pure heaven! We travel all the time and use VRBO at least 4 times a year and this is our best vacation ever. We loved the home, it was clean and beautifully decorated and the location was on the nicest beach I've ever been to. We loved to snorkel, swim, sun and walk all day long and almost never saw another person. It felt like we were on a deserted island. The sunrises were spectacular and I found myself springing out of bed to go for a run so I could capture them on my phone. The jungle trails leading away from the house and running alongside the beach were awesome. We knew there were many other places to visit on the island of Eleuthera, but we were so happy here, that we never wanted to leave and venture out. We loved cooking freshly caught lobster tails, fish, and many other delicious meals in the home. We went to a few restaurants and they were lovely but we saw no other place on the island that we liked as much as our little spot.

A guest from Washington, DC United States recommends this vacation rental.
We stayed at MedPoint for 2.5 weeks in September 2021, which is low season. It is an extraordinary property, remote but 5 minutes to town, with 270 degree views of the beach panorama. It's hard to convey or photograph how beautiful it is. (We joked that the parking space, framed by palms, beach, mangroves, and bright blue water, might be the most beautiful parking space in the world). It's also right next to French Leave and Twin Coves beaches, in our experience the two most beautiful on the Island.
The house itself is cozy and functional. It's more spacious than I expected, with comfortable furniture and a well-stocked kitchen (though no dishwasher). In some ways you need to be prepared for "island living", much like everywhere on Eleuthera. There were regular Island-wide blackouts; the wifi was fast, but not reliable; and you'll be bitten up if you forget to apply bug spray. But of course that's also part of the charm!
As we stayed during low season, the other house on the property (Alfred House) was vacant. I would note that it's very close, and you would have limited privacy if it were occupied. But otherwise the location is incredibly private, with no neighbors for about half a mile and just a handful of cars driving by each day.

A guest from delmar, NY United States recommends this vacation rental.
Right on the beach after a short drive on a dirt road. Lovely little house that was just as pictured online. The sliding doors and screens were difficult to work and the outdoor shower was stuck and was unusable. Unfortunately the power went out for 40 hours and there were no candles in the house-only one working mini flashlight and a small lantern. The owner is aware of all this and is correcting them and putting in a generator. Amazing beaches.
