Sea Shanty - Ocean view, Private pool, Walk to Beach, Prime Central Location.

Characterful 2 bedroom beach cottage, a 5 minutes walk down a pathway to the beach, with its own small swimming pool.

Sea Shanty is located on exclusive Bank's road. The pink sand beach is a 5 minute walk away, and Tippy's restaurant is a 2 minute drive or 15 walk down the beach.

Sea Shanty, which sits in 1/4 acre of private grounds, has a roof top deck, overlooking the trees, with a view to the ocean beyond. There is a new 15 foot, private swimming pool for your use. The cozy master bedroom, which has King size bed, is directly off the deck on the second floor of the house. Downstairs is open plan, with the a small, but fully functioning kitchen, a dining area suitable for 4, and a lounge which has a TV and a couch. Off the living room, there is a small 2nd bedroom with a queen bed, and a single loft bed above. This second bedroom would suit children, but also works for a couple. The property is quiet and peaceful, with only few high end houses in the neighborhood.

There is high speed wireless internet throughout the property.

The property is centrally located, being 10 minutes from Governors Harbour on the beautiful Bank's road, the most sought after area in Eleuthera. There are mile and miles of reef protected beaches, both north and south, in front of the house for you to explore. There is great snorkeling and spear fishing off the beach directly in front.

There are grocery stores 10 minutes away and 3-4 of the best restaurants on the island are within a 10 minute drive.

The property would suit anyone looking for a quiet and peaceful location, in the heart of the island.

The property was nice, quiet and peaceful. I truly enjoy the tranquility of the property. My only concern is the area gets dark if you’re alone but the island I extremely safe. I would book again with a few friends.

Sea Shanty is a gem!
Jerome’s place is a gem! This was our second stay here, and we were so happy to be back. The location is great. Sea Shanty is close to amenities yet has a very private feel. The beach access is less than a 5 minute walk down a palm tree lined path that is just across the street. Tippy’s is a short (10-15min) walk down the beach. This year we made a visit to the Leon Levy Preserve – which is a short drive from the house, and well worth a stop. The house itself is very comfortable and tidy. While we rarely felt the need for the a/c, it was nice to have on the few occasions when we wanted to take the humidity out. The upper deck is a great spot for coffee/tea in the morning. The backyard is like a mini sanctuary. The plunge pool was amazing. Just perfect for a quick dip after a day out exploring the island. Jerome was available for questions, but never intrusive. He is also terrific at making suggestions for restaurants, as well as beaches/activities to do. We had another fantastic stay and hope to be back next year!

Super stay at Sea Shanty
We loved our time at Sea Shanty! Our 11 year old had fun in the pool and zip line, and we felt like we had the gorgeous beach out front to ourselves. Would love to return!

Perfect for adventure!
I searched for months for the perfect rental on this island. I landed on sea shanty because of its proximity to the beach, and central location on the island. Perfect location to explore each end of the island with ease. The sea shanty is not insulated, but has plenty of AC split units/wall units to keep it cool. We cooked the majority of our stay and had everything we needed provided! Beach chairs, cooler bags, umbrella, and snorkel gear was also at the house. A few games were provided as well. The owner was amazing. Above and beyond! Would definitely stay here again, or use his larger property that’s right beside this one if we brought more family along! You can’t go wrong with this listing!

We had a wonderful stay at Sea Shanty. The location was perfect, the house was charming, and we really enjoyed the privacy. The pool area was very private and quiet and the deck area around the pool was great for hanging out. Upstairs off the master bedroom was a wonderful large deck with an ocean view, which we did quite a bit of hanging out up there, too. Jethro was a wonderful host, met all our needs, and very responsive. I highly recommend staying at Sea shanty, I know we will be back for a repeat. J and D
