(April 23, 2019) Poponi Cottage is a private studio apartment 100 paces from a mile-long, deserted pink-sand beach. Surrounded by beautiful gardens, Poponi is located on the second floor with a garage beneath. Water views are available from the balcony. Poponi Cottage shares a 4 acre beachfront estate with Poponi House. The house and cottage have good privacy from each other. There is great snorkeling off our beach! Two beachfront restaurant/bars are walking distance down the beach: Unique Village, 10 minutes, and La Bougainvillea 15 minutes. Poponi's kitchen is fully equipped with a gas range, full size refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker, blender, and toaster. The sleeping area is a queen size bed and a full bath with walk-in shower. The comfortable living area has a TV, DVD, cable & WiFi. The double glass doors open to a balcony with chairs, grill and outdoor dining table. There is an outdoor shower downstairs. The cottage is fully air conditioned. Poponi Cottage is centrally located near the settlement of North Palmetto Point which has several grocery shops, pharmacy and restaurants. The historic town of Governor's Harbour, the main town on the island, is a ten minute drive from the property. Governors Harbour has grocery stores, banks with ATM's, gift shops, liquor stores, dive shop, bakery, and half a dozen excellent restaurants. One or another of the restaurants/bars will have live music almost every night of the week. You can also buy the fresh catch of the day to grill at home from the town dock. We love children but unfortunately this house is not suitable for kids, so we do require all guests to be age 18 or older. ## Property amenities ### Beach - On the beach ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Internet access ### Parking and transport - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Hob - Microwave - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shower - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Dock - Garden ### Comfort - Air conditioning ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Location highlights - Near the bay - Near the marina - Near the ocean - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Birdwatching nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Sailing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkelling nearby - Spelunking nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - Garden - Property does not allow children ## Similar properties ![On the beach, sun-loungers, beach towels](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/90000000/89440000/89431800/89431798/4beff70c.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Romantic Cottage directly on the Beach!

The pictures and info on VRBO are very accurate. The beach is incredible and rarely do you see anyone else. Amazing. This studio apt is ideal for a couple. The outdoor deck is wonderful; we had morning coffee there each day. The owners live next door. Don't worry, they do not interfere at all, but were there to help and provide suggestions for the island. Highly recommend this place!! ##### Jim M. Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Janis G. 25 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### We enjoyed our stay We enjoyed our stay at Poponi Cottage. It was a short, pretty walk to the beach, and we mostly had the beach to ourselves. It was nice to have morning coffee at the sitting area in front of the beach, and watch the surf. We appreciated the outdoor shower for rinsing after swimming. The hosts, Rick and Missy, were very nice. The linens were not allergy free, as they were cleaned with detergent and/or fabric softeners with fragrance and likely other ingredients that irritate sensitive individuals, and that gave us some issue. VRBO needs to have standardized laundry policies, similar to hotels, for the products they use. (We don’t have issues with hotel linens.) ##### Janis G.

Poponi Cottage is exactly as described in the posting! The accommodation is perfect for a couple. The gentle breeze in the evening means you don't need to use air conditioning. The beach is in front of the main house and a 2-minute stroll from the cottage through lush vegetation. The landscaping is well-manicured and invites leisurely evenings on the deck. The private beach is beautiful and sandy, perfect for swimming or lounging. We stayed for 10 days on this trip and hope to make it longer next year. Our host Rick was very responsive to the few requests we had because everything was set up to allow us to have a turnkey experience with just the right amount of privacy. ##### bruce h.

The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a truly amazing stay at Poponi Cottage. The beach was gorgeous, the swimming excellent, and the accommodation spotlessly clean and very comfortable, including a very functional kitchen, a bbq, and super comfortable bed. If you enjoy a hands off approach by the owners, this is a good place for you. Note, while the beach is very close, you can not see the beach from the property (although you can hear the water), and there is a bigger property right in front. That said, there is an awesome shady hammock right by the beach. The only things I would recommend are: replacing the cracked lounge chairs on the terrace, fixing the AC, and providing a cellphone (it seems easy to get a SIM card, but really nice if you don't have to worry about that). Fortunately it wasn't that hot, we managed to get in and out of the chairs without falling through them, and we didn't need to make any calls! We have no hesitation in recommending the property. ##### k g. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Robert B. 4 Feb 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy ##### Robert B.

Set back about 100m from superb beach. Further rental house in front. Very helpful and attentive hosts. The cottage consists of one room and bathroom above garage. Although very basic there is a thoughtful comprehensive inventory. Drying line outside but partly shaded and if humid drying beach towels etc. difficult. Would suggest change of these every 3 days or so. Overall we enjoyed our stay and good central base to explore the rest of the island. ##### James P.

Reviewer Comments: I'll start by saying, I would absolutely return to this location for vacation. It was exactly as described and from what I could tell one of the nicer locations to stay. The cottage was just enough for my fiance and I. It was so cozy and included all the amenities. The best part was the beachfront. The beach looks like the picture...perfect. We only saw a couple of people here and there on the beach making it feel like our own private beach. Missy was very kind and was available if needed. Two thumbs up!Tip: definitely rent an SUV, the secondary roads are more like trails. The island is very expensive so be prepared. Directions around the island are not great, especially the first couple of days. Lastly, the food truck next to Burrows store has amazing sandwiches and salads for decent prices. ##### Constance B.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Great studio apartment with all the amenities you need. Property is beautifully landscaped. Trees have grown so much that you can’t see the ocean from the apartment or patio :( but you can hear it! ##### Chelsea P. ### 6/10 Okay #### Christopher 8 Dec 2022 ##### Christopher ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kim S. 27 May 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Absolute Heaven My husband and I love Eleuthera and have been there many times over the past 11 years, usually with our daughters and their friends/partners, and have stayed in quite a few rental homes of varying sizes around the Governors Harbour area. This trip was an anniversary trip for just the two of us and Poponi Cottage was the perfect getaway! We felt instantly at home in this bright, cozy and very private bungalow surrounded by lush trees and flowering plants. The property is on the Atlantic Ocean side of the island and the cottage is about a 1 minute stroll to the gorgeous and mostly deserted beach. In fact, we only saw 2 other people on "our beach" one time the entire week of long walks, swimming and snorkeling. It was truly like a fantasy vacation on a private island...only better because a short drive away were all the restaurants and shops we've grown to love over the years of visiting central Eleuthera. Missy, the owner who happened to be on island, came by to say hi our first day and goodbye our last, but otherwise left us to ourselves...which was unfortunate because she's such a lovely ray of sunshine we'd have loved to spend more time with her. Hopefully that will happen next time as we 100% plan to rent Poponi Cottage again along with Poponi House when we return with the rest of our family in the fall! ##### Kim S.
