A guest from Bonners Ferry, Idaho United States recommends this vacation rental.

Our home was awesome. It was clean, had everything we needed and was a home you could relax in and truly enjoy. The Beach, just a hop skip and a jump away was one of the most perfect beaches I have ever seen. In two weeks we saw a total of 6 other people on it. The owner, Shawna, couldn’t have made our trip any more pleasant and Eleuthera rentals takes the worry out of renting, Pam is. awesome. If you like quiet and peace this is the place for you. The locals are so friendly and helpful you can’t help but feel at home. Food is a sticker shock, so if you can, bring some along with you.

Manager Responded on 6/5/2022

Annette K. from St Albert, AB Canada recommends this vacation rental.

Our family has stayed at several homes in different parts of Eleuthera (and the Cove and Sky
Beach) over the years and Shangri-La was hands down our favorite. It is located conveniently close to the Governor's Harbour Airport and Governor's Harbour. We have found that this is central on the island and allows us to explore both north and south. Although it is not located directly on the beach, it was so close it might have well as been. This is nice for those beach days when you want to make a three minute walk back to the house for forgotten sunscreen, a hat or maybe just another cold Kalik. The property was perfect for 5 adults...there was enough space that we were not stepping on each other and we spent many hours on the lovely, spacious deck. The home was well equipped with everything we needed. I would recommend it to anyone in a heartbeat.

Manager Responded on 1/5/2022

Wow, thank you for this amazing review! We are so happy that Shangri-La has become your favourite location on Eleuthera. The short ten-minute drive from the GHB airport is convenient and the central location makes exploring Eleuthera much easier. I'm so happy that you and your family enjoyed the beach and the path from the house. The spaciousness of Shangri-La makes it the perfect place to spread out or enjoy each other's company in the open-concept living area. I hope that many memories were made on the wrap around deck, while enjoying meals and drinks with your family. It was a pleasure corresponding with you prior to your trip and helping to coordinate your vacation. I would love to have you and your family back for another stay. Please reach out when you would like to return, so that we can make your next stay even more memorable.

Vicky M. from Kent, Ohio United States recommends this vacation rental.

Another incredible week at Shangri La. This was my second time renting this house. And my 6th visit to Eleuthera. It was better then perfect. It didn't think it could get better then the first visit but somehow the owner and house manager figured that out. I was again impressed on how they do it. The house is located on the best part of the island, mid point so exploring is easy. It takes 90 minutes to get to Lighthouse and about the same to reach Ben Bay. The house comes with everything you need to explore with ease. A large cooler for your longer days out or a mini cooler for beach days in front of the house. House came fully equipped with beach chairs, umbrella, snorkel gear, rafts, beach bags and even freezer packs for cooler! Forget your water shoes or hat at home? Well there are plenty of extras at the house along with extra sunscreen and bugspray.
The porch as always was the gathering spot from early morning coffees to evening drinks. Plenty of sitting room inside as well, with weather being perfect we never actually sat inside. We ate most meals in because it was easier for us being vegan. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking.
I cannot explain how incredible this house is. I will be back again and again. Many thanks to the whole team that made my week the best. Much respect.

Manager Responded on 6/5/2021

We are so happy that you enjoyed another stay at Shangri-La. It's wonderful that you love Eleuthera as much as we do. Our staff puts a great deal of effort into preparing Shangri-La and making sure that our guests are comfortable. Thank you for appreciating their hard work. We look forward to welcoming you back next year and the year after that.

A guest from Nassau, New Providence Bahamas recommends this vacation rental.

The house was in a perfect position just behind Banana beach. A minutes walk.. No roads to cross.. We could not have asked for a better house and location. A lovely coastal path along old Banks road also and a short walk to Pascal's Retaurant. The house had a beautiful island feel. Simple yet homely and great for kids. Communication before and during our stay was fantastic.

Manager Responded on 3/2/2021

It was a pleasure having you stay as our guests at Shangri-La. It's so nice to welcome visitors who have a close connection to Eleuthera and want to return for a vacation. The proximity of Shangri-La to the beach and local restaurant with resort amenities allows our guests the best of both worlds. I enjoyed communicating with you, during your preparations and while you were on Eleuthera. I truly hope that you will return to Shangri-La very soon.

A guest from Greenwich, CT US recommends this vacation rental.

We loved our stay at Shangri-La. close proximity to beach meant everyone could move at their own pace. Back to house for dinner in well appointed kitchen. Plenty of room for party of six. Nice use of pool at Pasquals.

Manager Responded on 6/19/2021

We're so pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Shangri-La. Thank you for giving us such a wonderful review and five star feedback. The proximity to our amazing beach does allow everyone to visit the beach whenever they want. Going back and forth throughout the day makes life at Shangri-La so enjoyable. We're glad that you were comfortable with your larger group and that you made use of the pool at Pascal's. We hope to welcome you back again very soon.

Julie S. from Bedford, MA United States recommends this vacation rental.

Shangri-La is the perfect place to spend a vacation on the island. The property is just steps away to an incredible beach that we felt like we had all to ourselves for miles. The house has tons of space and with two teenagers they could spread out if they wanted. The kitchen is well appointed which was great for in-home meals and cooking. We loved the furnishings and décor and all the special touches. Shawna was an excellent host -- she was attentive and responsive to our needs and questions and appreciated all the information, recommendations and tips she provided before our arrival and during our stay. The caretake, Lachadra, was so helpful as well. The location was ideal; only a short drive from the GHB airport, a short drive into town, and great starting point to explore the island. We can't wait to return!

Manager Responded on 6/13/2021

Thank you for this wonderful five star review of Shangri-La. We are so pleased that you awarded us top scores for the service from our rental manager (Lachadra), cleanliness (Rosalie and John), and our central location. We agree that our beach is beautiful and extremely quiet. It's the perfect place to get away from it all. We look forward to your return and thank you very much for staying at Shangri-La.

Vicky M. from Kent, Ohio United States recommends this vacation rental.

This was my third trip to Eleuthera and this rental was my favorite. Not just in eleuthera, as i travel outside the US alot and always rent from Homeaway. This was the best property i have ever rented. First of all the location was perfect. Easy to explore the whole island. The house has everything you need and everything you didnt know you needed.beachchairs, umbrellas, floats, snorlkle gear, cooler etc. Also they have 5 gallon water jugs which are so convenient to refill at the local gas station. The house was large and had room for more then our party of 4. Could easily accommodate 8. The outside deck was large with a gas grill we used for all our dinners. The beach was the best part. So easy to get to. Just right down the path in front of the house. This review would not be complete without mentioning Chad. She was our caretaker while we were there. She can arrange anything you need. We had her stock our fridge with beer for us before we got there. Also rent a car from Chad and her husband Barry. All i can say is Wow! Bravo. Outstanding. This house is the best! You will see me again.

Eugene B. from United States recommends this vacation rental.

This home is simply terrific. Have stayed on this property for 5 years running. It is only about 100 yards to walk to the beach along a clear but lush pathway AND a short road or beach walk to PASCAL'S restaurant and Sammy's Bar. The property is maintained with excellence - clean, bright well appointed. Nice linens and bath items throughout. Some folding beach chairs welcome for visits to the incredible (and extremely uncrowded) beaches. The local management personnel are a breath of fresh air in that they are very friendly and accommodating - they truly want your stay to be a vacation and stress free. Cannot recommend this spot highly enough. We will return next year, and the next year, and......

Manager Responded on 1/27/2020

Thank you for the five star review of Shangri-La. It's obvious that you love the location, amenities, and beach as much as we do. Having access to the infinity pool, hot tub, and Pascal's Restaurant is a great feature of Shangri-La. Sammy's pina coladas and fun-loving personality, is always a highlight for many visitors. We enjoy decorating the home with a coastal flair and providing our guests with the best experience possible.The beach is so close and as you said, so quiet. It's a beautiful spot to walk for miles, search for beach finds, swim, boogie board, or just enjoy sitting on the beach chairs with a cooler bag. Our Bahamian management takes great pride in preparing the house, meeting you at the airport, and being of assistance if needed. Thank you for choosing Shangri-La year after year. We look forward to your return in 2021.

Catherine W. from Nassau, NP Bahamas recommends this vacation rental.

This was the perfect place to spend a week's vacation to relax and truly wind down. Travel options in 2020 had to be thought through carefully and we were glad to find Shangri-La. The property is in a private gated community. We were surprised at how short a walk it is to the beautiful beach from the property – the owners have thought of everything as beach chairs, shades, toys, floats were kept available to use for the perfect beach day.
The week we were there, there were a few days when it rained and overcast – however, we didn’t feel like we missed out on anything as Shangri-La has tons of space which allowed everyone to spread out in the wide open areas or spend time hanging out in one of the rooms or cozy loft area to enjoy a book.
The kitchen is well appointed with every appliance that we needed for the stay. Tons of linens and towels are available to really make you feel at home. The furnishings and décor were really well thought out and gave us that out-island, pure vacation getaway feel!
The property was very clean and the owners and caretakers vigilant about Covid protocols as sanitizer and wipes were available – we really felt comfortable and safe on arrival and throughout our stay.
Shawna was an excellent host as she provided tons of information about her favourite spots and places to visit. She was very attentive to our needs and responded quickly to any questions we had to make sure that everything was meeting our needs and expectations. Lachadra was amazing also – she made sure we had her number in case we needed to ask her about anything on-island and was so gracious in providing some welcome refreshments and homemade ice cream.
I would highly recommend this gem of a property to anyone visiting Eleuthera! The property is well located, only a short drive from the airport and a short drive into town. We would not hesitate to stay here again and hope to visit again very soon!

Thank you for staying at Shangri-La and taking the time to write such a glowing review of our vacation home. We can understand why you carefully contemplated your travel options considering how the world has changed. We are thankful that you felt comfortable and safe while staying with us. As you mentioned, our staff is following the Covid protocols and we have invested in supplies such as hand sanitizer and wipes, so that our guests are well equipped and protected. It's important to us to keep our guests and staff safe. We have also implemented a 24 hour wait period between departing guests and those arriving to Shangri-La. We hope this wait period eases travellers' worries. We are very happy to hear that you enjoyed the coastal décor and spaciousness of the house. We've decorated the house with local artwork, coastal furniture, and linens to reflect its location on a beautiful Bahamian out island. Lachadra truly enjoyed meeting you and your family and preparing the house for your arrival. Providing our guests with a warm welcome, Bahamian drinks, and treats is her specialty. It was a pleasure having you and your family as our guests. We look forward to welcoming you back to Shangri-La in the near future.
