Wind was strong (20-30 mph) out of the east most of our trip and being on the western side protected us from some of the wind. House was great and generator was needed as power went off numerous times. Little extras provided like beach chairs, snorkeling equipment, and beach cooler were greatly appreciated. ##### Teresa P.

Reviewer Comments: Love the house, it had everything we needed. Very clean and comfy. Snorkeling was fantastic. Ten Bay beach is very close by and a very nice beach. It is secluded so you cannot walk to any restaurants or shops, but its perfect if you want to relax and sit on the screened in porch and listen to the water. You feel like you have the whole cove to yourself. I would love to go back again one day! ##### Patty T.

Clear communications prior to arrival and very easy check in process. The house was spotless on our arrival. Beautiful view of the Caribbean. Kitchen items were very well stocked.. We didn’t need it, but the owners thoughtfully provided much in the way of snorkeling/ water equipment. Just a great stay all around. And a huge thank you to Kristen and Tennille for working with us on a bit of an early check-in - very much appreciated. ##### Russell H. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cindy L. 10 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Great VRBO Great VRBO. House was clean, kitchen had everything we needed. A few issues popped up during our stay but Tennielle and Kristin promptly took care of them. The screened in porch was damaged but was told new screens were on order, understand it takes awhile to get parts. The trampoline wasn't in water think the cover must have been damaged and on order. Snorkeling in front of house is great, Ralvin Buggies tours was a lot of fun. The best grocery store is The Market in Rock Sound. But for fresh veggies and bread Island Farms! We already miss Eleuthera! ##### Cindy L. Stayed 15 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Meghan D. 26 Feb 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location #### Great house, well stocked kitchen, and nice views of bay We really enjoyed our stay at Bella Mer. It was very clean and the kitchen has everything we needed since we like to cook a lot. We chose this house for the location, as well as the generator due to frequent power outages and the outdoor grill. Needless to say we were very disappointed when we arrived to see there was not an outdoor grill. Also, we had 4 power outages over 3 days forcing us to cook by the light we brought from home because the generator wasn’t working. Power outages happen but not having the generator as promised was beyond disappointing since it was one of the reasons we chose Bella Mer. The snorkeling was excellent in the creek and from the dock. Even saw a sea turtle! ##### Meghan D.

There are some life jackets , snorkel gear and a paddle board for use while there. Also plenty of beach towels. Beautiful and private. Enjoyed snorkeling directly off the properties ladder in the cove just south. Light house beach was our favorite spot we visited on the island , worth the 2 mile walk on the beach. Such a beautiful quiet island. The host was Very nice and responded quickly. ##### Michelle P.

The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Bella Mer was the home we chose after being unable to rent our previous longstanding preferred home. I’m so glad we did! Bella Mer was the absolute perfect spot for us. Our priorities are solitude and snorkeling. Bella Mer is perfect on that front. The home was immaculate and well appointed. Not too big and not too small. Just right. The snorkeling on site is fantastic with Kemp’s Creek being easily accessible. Nightly sunsets were magical. Tennille the property manager was delightful and responsive, though we were able to find everything we needed. It was nice to know she was a quick WhatsApp message away. We love central Eleuthera for its ready accessibility to the rest of the island and Bella Mer is a perfect launching point for island adventures. We fully intend to return. We truly could not have been happier with Bella Mer, in fact just a few days into our stay we agreed that this was our new home away from home. ##### John W.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved Bella Mer! It was private and quaint — had almost everything we could have needed. Loved the back yard/ocean access. We enjoyed snorkeling around the point to the left and down toward Kemp’s Creek — we saw Teddy the turtle and stingrays, many fish, starfish, etc. It was fairly close to Governor’s Harbor (20 min) & maybe 30 min from the airport. We explored far north and far south, and this location made that convenient! The bed was SO COMFY too — one of the better ones we have ever slept on in a VRBO/Airbnb. If I were to give any tips at all, I would say that it would be handy to have scissors in the kitchen and bars of soap available for showering and also some drinking water, since the tap water is not recommended to drink. Finding the bottle and where to get water was a bit confusing but we figured it out with Tennielle’s help ($5.50 for a 5 gallon refill at a local store). Nice to be able to text her with questions! Handy! Thanks so much for a wonderful stay — we loved it!!! ##### Gwen H.

The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very unhappy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family and I were disappointed in Bella Mer. We had read the positive reviews and decided to book on that and the view. We had reached out a week prior to our arrival to make sure they had a grill & propane, but the afternoon we arrived we purchased chicken & steak and were not able to use the grill because the igniter was broken. The WiFi was not working either. We did reach out to the property manager & she had the WiFi rebooted. The rental advertises paddle boards but they both have holes and one was unusable. The other we had to pump it up regularly. The beach chairs were broken. The pots & pans were very old and there was only one oven save dish. They didn’t leave any bottled water to start our week or dish detergent, hand soap, only two trash bags, no foil, only 1 paper towel roll. We had to purchase a lot of basic necessaries for bathroom & kitchen.The grill should be replaced. There was a slippery film on the tile so when entering the house we slipped walking around. They did come back and mopped the floor. They didn’t have any matches or lighter to light the candles on the porch to rid of the moquitos. We had to request more bath towels. Its not luxury but what made us book this house was the back yard view and access to the Caribbean. We will stay at a different property next time. We never felt comfortable and we shouldn’t have had to request what is advertised for what we were paying for. This is not an inexpensive house but the price should be lower for what is offered. We also had to kill a roach in one of the bedrooms the first day. This made us very uncomfortable thinking they made be more throughout the house. ##### William V.

The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed at Bella Mer November 25 - December 4\. The location was accurate and is perfect for a relaxing getaway. Although we did read about how bad the roads were there, it was a little unexpected as to just how much. Tennielle was very helpful and told us about a different/better road to use. After a couple of days we were used to the conditions of all the roads anyway. The layout and amenities were perfect! The house was spotless and we absolutely loved the screened in patio!! We were provided with suggestions for activities and restaurants and found plenty of sunshine and beaches to enjoy. My only recommendation would be to call a restaurant (if there is a number) before traveling to it. We found many had totally different hours and days that they were open. Definitely having food at home for a back up is a bonus. We really enjoyed swimming at the house in our own private area too! The water was perfect!! Tennielle answered any and all questions promptly and was VERY helpful. We would definitely recommend this property to everyone. ##### Mike A.

Screen in the back porch needs fixing, bath towels need to be replaced, no toiletries just one roll of toilet paper and hand soap, no tv, internet is weak. And the the latter part of the road to get to the house is horrific. Nonetheless, we had an amazing time able to relax and enjoy the beach. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d2504761-4885-4340-bd5b-b341216491a1-1751197906243.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3974c9be-478a-45a2-89c7-39d7dc2284a7-1751197906116.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Cristina L.

The house was clean and well appointed, with many amenities. There were some things lacking they were just small issues (no sponge or washcloth for dishes, not enough laundry soap, no cooking oil). We enjoyed lounging in the gorgeous water right outside of the back door, and the sunsets were amazing! Tenielle was extremely responsive to messages with any issues or questions that came up. The property is secluded, so be prepared to drive if you need anything, but the Midway Cost-Cutter and Eleuthera Island Farms are not too far away; the farm is fantastic, go on Tuesday morning for fresh cinnamon rolls! We will definitely stay at Bella Mer when we return to Eleuthera, you should stay here, you won't regret it! ##### Ashley K. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joanne H. 30 May 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Amazing Third time staying here so we must love it. Its just the perfect little house for us. Modern and clean - and we love the location. Eleuthera is getting quite popular but still so many private beaches - get out and explore! ##### Joanne H.

Home has everything you need for a good time. Nosiums were our only problem in late afternoon. Manager very responsive and extremely helpful with anything one needs. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tammy B. 16 May 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful, Quiet and Comfy! Bella Mer is such a pretty house with most any amenity you would need (even a wine chiller!). Very pretty interior with an amazing view! The beds were super comfortable and the a/c cooled the rooms quite quickly every evening. Lots of beach gear (although some better beach chairs would be our only request as that is a tough thing to bring but there were lots of floats to hang in the water). Tennielle was very attentive and quick to answer any questions we had. A great stay and we look forward to visiting again! ##### Tammy B.

Reviewer Comments: We really enjoyed our 6 nights at Bella Mer. The house has a very nice layout and we couldn't get enough of the water and view. We are a family of 4 (teenage kids) and the house was a perfect size for us. Definitely recommend that you rent a car that is higher off the ground and has 4 wheel drive so that you're able to navigate the 1 mile road to the house. ##### Lynn A. ---
