Greencastle House | Oceanfront Perfection - Daily Housekeeping/Private Cook included!

5 Bedroom House in Greencastle, Rock Sound

Visitors to this beautiful oceanfront home wholeheartedly agree — THIS is what a vacation retreat should be! Secluded, peaceful and tranquil, and surrounded by water on three sides, this beach home is a welcome escape from your everyday routine.
The ocean beach is only a few steps away from the patio on the front of the house, and the patio on the back of the house faces the lagoon with its white sandy flats. No matter where you look, Eleuthera’s gorgeous landscape of soft blues and pink-white sand highlight the unbelievably crystal-clear water.
This beach home setting is an ideal destination for families, but also for groups of adults looking for a bit of paradise. Spacious and comfortable living spaces are provided indoors and out, with quiet areas for reading and napping.
Several patios offer chaise lounges, umbrellas, tables and chairs to help you unwind in the continuous gentle ocean breezes with a book, a gourmet meal, or a glass of wine. The outdoor hot/cold shower is a welcome convenience after a visit to the beach. Luxurious green palms, vines, and other beautiful foliage add to the charm of the lovely tropical surroundings.
And as if all of this isn’t enough, the rate includes a daily housekeeper and on-site chef known for delicious al fresco dishes and desserts, along with her delightful personality. You pay for the food (or catch the fish yourself!), and each day one mouthwatering, healthy meals will be prepared for you using local fruits, seafood, and vegetables.
The lagoon in the back of the house with its knee-to-waist high water is perfect for those with young children, and the lagoon as well as the ocean is also where many guests enjoy the relaxation of kayaking. For the adventuresome, you can arrange a scuba trip, snorkel in front of the house or at Millars Reef, head to Surfer’s Beach for big waves, or charter a deep-sea fishing boat like the “Ocean Fox” out of Davis Harbour or Cape Eleuthera. If you’re partial to tennis, a public tennis court is only about 2 miles away on the route to Wemyss Bight.
Comfortably sleeping 8 to 10, each of the 5 bedrooms provides a lovely water view and has its own private bath. A master king bedroom includes private patios on both the ocean and the lagoon side. Additional bedrooms include a king bed, a room with two twins which can be combined into a king, a queen, and a single. A sixth bedroom/sitting room with private bath has a sofabed that converts to a queen sleeper.
Guests consistently give this lovely home an “Exceptional” 5 out of 5 rating. Many of those are return visitors. Visitors describe their experience as “arrived exhausted, but heading home refreshed and revived.”
If you’re not already familiar with the island of Eleuthera in the central Bahamas, it’s considered a remote tropical paradise, and part of the Bahamas archipelago. It’s known for pink sand beaches and turquoise water, green sea turtles and coral reefs, friendly, warm, and hospitable locals, and a rich cultural heritage.
Loads of natural wonders are also yours to explore on the island. You won’t experience the crowds that are often found on some of the Bahamian Islands. Shell collecting and simply strolling on the broad beaches are delightful activities.
Plan a visit to one-of-a-kind Ocean Hole, an inland swimming hole on the edge of Rock Sound. It’s a “bottomless” natural limestone formation with brackish water that some even claim has healing powers. Tropical fish and turtles populate the Ocean Hole; you aren’t allowed to fish there, but you can feed the fish and swim with the turtles.
Lighthouse Beach is considered a breathtaking beach that offers swimming, small caves and snorkeling. Some say it’s the best beach on the island but you may want to get a local to take you there, as the roads can sometimes be a challenge. Cotton Bay is another option for a wonderful place to jog or walk on the road or the beach.
Beautiful water views on all sides, the soothing sound of ocean breezes and rhythmic waves, comfortable furnishings inside and outdoors, a housekeeper to keep things tidy, and fabulous meals made to order. What more could you ask for?

Summary: Our stay at Sanderling was wonderful!! The house itself is the perfect combination of that old Bahamas feel and modern comfort. When you enter the home, you can feel the love, warmth and incredible memories that have been made there. We didn’t want for anything during our stay. The amenities and location kept our family perfectly content for 8 nights. There is a market nearby that is very well stocked and the staff is super friendly. We did a fair amount of driving to get to all of the locations we wanted to see, but that was part of the adventure. You could certainly stay on property for multiple days and be absolutely content. The bay on one side of the house was perfect for just floating and relaxing or taking a leisurely morning paddle. We saw turtles, rays, and sharks every day. Out front the kids loved jumping in the waves and walking the beach. We paddled around the beached barge out front a couple of times, which was a good workout. There is a beautiful island breeze that constantly blows through keeping the house cool. No need for AC, but it is available in each room for comfort if needed. I especially loved showering in the outdoor shower each afternoon. To top it all off, Ms. Ruth took such good care of us. She is a lovely soul and we thoroughly enjoyed just chatting with her in the kitchen. She made us the most delicious meals. The kids loved helping her make coconut milk from fresh coconut found in the yard. Her fresh bread and conch fritters are second to none.
