Oceanfront Glass House on Private Deserted Pink Sand Beach

Bonefish Barbis Beach Bungalow Beachhouse is an oceanfront vacation rental located in Eleuthera, Bahamas (Fodor's Travel Guide said that Eleuthera is one of the most beautiful Bahamian islands).

This modern two bedroom/two bath house sits atop a bluff directly on the ocean with a panoramic view of a horizon full of whitecaps generated by nearby offshore reefs. Many of these reefs are within swimming distance in shallow waters. The house is surrounded by flowers, especially an assortment of different colors of bourganvillas. The beach in front of the house is virtually deserted and you can walk for miles either way on beautiful white/pink powder soft sand-- you probably wont see another person.

WE NOW HAVE WI-FI !

Everything was perfect
This was a central location for us to explore both north and south of the island. The house is perfect with the bedrooms on separate ends of the house and a beautiful view.

Comfortable House with Spectacular Views
The house is very comfortable, was very clean, and the kitchen is well-stocked with pots/pans, dishes and utensils. The view is what you want when you stay at a house overlooking the Atlantic Ocean! If privacy, quiet, easy beach access and a chance to sit outside and check out the night sky is what you’re looking for, this is the place. Owner is easy to communicate with.

Peaceful & Great Beach
I have been going to Eleuthera for over 20 years. Every home is different and being on a remote island has its challenges for property owners. This home sits on a great beach with plenty of privacy. It was very clean and the check in process was super easy. Some items are worn, but everything works. The bed in the blue bedroom sways and is super soft (the only negative). Awesome view and nice location.

What a Wonderful Hidden Gem
This was the perfect honeymoon location for my husband and I. The house had everything we could ever need, and with steps going right down to the deserted beach it was an absolute paradise. Highly recommend!

Great choice for a memorable vacation
My family of 4 stayed for 6 nights in late March. The house was clean and well equipped with comfortable beds. There are many chairs, coolers, towels, snorkeling gear, and even some floaties available for use. The view is amazing, I could never tire of the view. The beach is a short walk down a couple flights of wooden stairs. The sand is fine, soft, white with pink mixed in. You can walk for miles and miles in either direction. We will be back!

Great place on the water. But 62 steps from top to bottom. Great snorkeling right off the house. Had the beach to ourselves except for the last 2 days. Ready for next year!

Amazing views and well laid out house for families
Bonefish Barbi's has an amazing view of the Atlantic Ocean and some of best snorkeling on the entire island right outside its doors. The layout of the house is perfect for families and the amenities in the house provide you with everything you would need. Barbi is prompt and thorough with her responses - I felt very comfortable in all my interactions with her. She was happy to provide recommendations and provided clear directions about the property.

Heaven on earth!
Husband and I celebrated our 25th anniversary by renting this amazing house. The view was beyond extraordinary- just breathtaking. We explored the deserted beaches on the island all week. Snorkeled every day at different beaches. Fell in love with the house and the island. We will definitely be back. Didn’t see another person on the beach outside of the house all week. We had an amazing time!

Truely Amazing!
If you are thinking about staying here, do it without any hesitation! The house, the location, the people, everything is absolutely beautiful about this place. I really can't say enough amazing things about my stay, and the owner, Barbi, is an absolute delight. If you stay here, I promise, you will not be disappointed! The house is located right on the beach, and the view from the house is breathtaking. You can be as active or as relaxed as your heart desires, and Barbi has everything you need. If you stay here, you will want to come back again and again. I love, love, love this place and Barbi, best vacation ever!!!!!

Most Amazing Family Vacation of My Life
My husband and two children (4 & 5 years old) stayed for a week after christmas. It was magical. The home is perfectly laid out for a family. The view and beach access (practically a private beach!) were amazing for all of us. Sandcastles and lazy coffee mornings everyday. The location is very near so many lovely short day trips for kids (cocodimama beach is ideal for 4 & 5 year olds and only a few minutes away). We stayed home way more than we planned because Barbi's is so well appointed. Eleuthera has absolutely charmed us! We hope to be back soon!

Perfect place
Everything was perfect. All the utensils and cookware you could ask for to cook great meals. 5 minute drive to the town of governors harbour where you can buy groceries, liquor, and go to great restaurants. Truly a peaceful place with great views. House had beach chairs there and we enjoyed sitting on the beach and not seeing anyone for days. Snorkeling and spearing was awesome. I would bring your own fins as she had very small fins there and the current in the Atlantic is strong. The outside of the house looks like it’s weathered quite a few storms but it is a quaint and beautiful place that I can’t wait to go back to

Exactly as advertised!
Absolutely gorgeous views! Practically private beach. The little cabana was the bomb. House accomplished all of our goals. A bedroom view was insane. It was pretty windy most of the time we were there so I did not get to snorkel out front. (tried once and got a little beat up.) Hoping on our next trip to get some calmer seas. We were there the week before Thanksgiving. Not everything was open yet but we did just fine. Did not realize that you drive opposite here. Adapted quickly. There are some major potholes so stay awake! Also if your looking for a glamorous island resort feel, not so much. If you want to slow down and chill...Eleuthera is the place.

Bonefish Barbis Tropical Retreat
This is our 5th visit to beautiful Eleuthera. We left Maine in a snow storm and arrived at Bonefish Barbis in tropical paradise. As we drove up the driveway surrounded by palm trees and vibrant bougainvillea we immediately felt at home. As we entered the house we were drawn to the amazing panoramic ocean views, beach and reefs. We were excited to get out in the water and snorkel the reefs... some of the best snorkeling and beautiful fish during our vacation. The pink sand beach is lovely and you can walk for miles without seeing another soul. The house is comfortable and it was great to have 2 private bedrooms at different wings of the house with their own on-suite bathrooms. The outside decks and the views are amazing!! Barbi answered our questions promptly and was great to work with. We love Eleuthera and plan to stay at Barbis again in the future.

Fantasy Island
Complete privacy as the house is the very last one on the road. It is one of 5 or 6 homes and we only saw 4 people on the beach the 10 days we were there. The house was comfortable, clean and had everything you need. You have the choice of a firm mattress or a soft mattress. We chose the soft mattress and it was very comfortable with beatiful views of the palm tree and the ocean. Beatiful views of the ocean from every room in the house. Once to go down the 56 steps to the the beach, walk to the right and go around the point for miles of unspoiled beach with nobody around and no houses, AMAZING!!! Thank you Barbie for amazing experience and memories that will last forever! I highly recomment renting BoneFish Barbies for the Dream Private Secluded Vacation! :)

True paradise
My husband and boys ages 7 & 9 had the best time on our trip to Eleuthera. Barbi was super responsive with any questions and suggestions leading up to and during our trip. I was BLOWN AWAY at the amazing reef located right there in front of the house. We saw all kinds of beautiful fish. The house was very comfortable and quickly felt like home. The neighborhood cat was so friendly and made herself at home too! haha. The sunrise was amazing to watch every morning while sipping my coffee. There were a few days when it was a little rough at our beach and we went across to Cocodimama, just a short ride away and it was super calm and amazing. Everyone we met on the island was very friendly. Our only regret is not getting to stay longer and getting shorted a day by American Airlines. We will definitely be back though!

Fantastic private location with beautiful views
The home is very private with stunning views. AC, TV, WIFI, frig, hot water worked great and kitchen was well equipped. The beds were comfortable and you could hear the Atlantic Ocean at night. The outside of the home needs some repair. Wood deck with shower and chaise lounges overlook a beautiful soft sandy beach. Lots of wooden steps down to the beach. Beach was empty most days but a few homes are located on the north side of the home. No homes to the south. Good visibility in water but few fish. Sandy deserted private beach about one mile in length to the south after you cross a rocky area by an abandoned beach house. Not many shells found. Restaurants, grocery, bakery and gas station in Governor's Harbor 5 miles south of home. Home is in a great location for exploring Eleuthera or for just staying home for the day ready and enjoying the deck and beach. Try to rent a 4 wheel drive if you like to explore. Lots of pot holes and rough roads. We would stay there again.
