High Seas As Seen on HGTV’s ‘Bahamas Life’ Ocean view, with Starlink internet

High Seas is a spacious, hilltop 2 king size bedroom, 2 bathroom cottage with wonderful views over the blue Atlantic waters. Whether sitting on the deck or inside the house you have a view of the water. Make a coffee and watch the sunrise from the deck or lounging on the sofas inside the great room.

The large, open-plan living area is airy and cool thanks to its high ceilings and many windows. There is AC in the living area and both bedrooms as well as ceiling fans. Enjoy your meals on the 400 square foot wrap-around deck with two sets of French doors opening onto the deck. With the cool sea breezes, you can watch the waves breaking at James Point, fishing boats from Harbour Island, or a cruise ship sailing past.

The kitchen has luxury appliances, and a central island/breakfast bar for you to prepare your meals and socialize. The master bedroom has a king size bed and stunning sea views. It leads into a large spa-like ensuite bathroom with a spacious walk-in shower. The guest bedroom also has a king size bed. The caribbean-style guest bathroom, accessible from the great room, has a bathtub with a stand up shower.

Wireless high speed internet (Starlink) has been installed, and is available for your use. There is a 32" Smart TV with a Netflix subscription available for your use as well as Apple TV and a DVD player.

There are two single person kayaks located at Rainbow Bay Beach for easy access, four beach chairs, snorkeling gear, inflatables, noodles, boogie boards, beach towels and a large cooler (ice packs in the freezer) available for your use.

My fantastic housekeeper lives in Rainbow Bay and is available for any questions that arise during your stay. She also has a vehicle rental business and you definitely need a vehicle to explore Eleuthera and to get down some of the beach roads. I will happily arrange vehicle rental for you with pick up from any airport you arrive into.

'High Seas' is located on a very quiet road, with unobstructed views across native vegetation to the sea. At night, the only sound you will hear is the breaking of the waves on the shore, approximately 400 yards away. Look up and see the stars!

The cottage comes with bedding, towels, beach towels and a washing machine. You can dry clothes outside on the washing line. Dries super fast with great weather.

The property is situated in beautiful Rainbow Bay which is a perfect mid way point on the island so you can head North or South and easily explore. Rainbow Bay is a quiet beach community with a particularly lovely beach on the Caribbean side with palapas and kayaks as well as a very popular restaurant, The Rainbow Inn; it takes 4 minutes to walk to the inn restaurant from High Seas.

I have a copy of The Beach Book at the house. This will help you discover all the beaches although it will take a few vacations to see all of them!

High Seas was everything and more!! Loved the mornings on the balcony watching the sunrise!!! At night listening to the ocean. Very peaceful place to stay, very clean and had everything we needed!! Rainbow Bay is the perfect place to stay on the island. Walked to Rainbow Inn for dinner, good food and friendly employees!! Rainbow beach is just the perfect little beach. So many beaches to explore, rough roads to get to them but if I can do it anyone can!!! Checking in, renting car from Laura and having her as our contact while on the island was amazing, everything went so smoothly - thank you so much Laura and Thank You soo much Jackie for sharing your precious house “High Seas”!!! I loved every moment of my vacation!!! I certainly hope to be back very soon!!!

We lived as volunteers in James Cistern several year's ago. We had not stayed in this part of Rainbow community before. Loved the deck and the swings .

Wonderful stay at High Seas!
High Seas was everything we hoped for and more! Everything was as described in the listing and we loved our stay, especially out on the deck, enjoying the varied vegetation, the birdsong and best of all, the view and sound of the ocean! Communication with the host and Laura the caretaker was excellent and responsive to all our needs. We will definitely be back!

Relaxing Eleuthera Retreat
We were so happy we chose High Seas for our vacation! The house was so spacious and bright. The beds were huge and comfy. There was air conditioning in both bedrooms and the main room, and when it wasn't too hot out the doors let in a wonderful breeze. The kitchen was well equipped for all our cooking (and cocktail making) needs. We enjoyed sipping coffee on the deck and watching the sun rise over the Atlantic every morning. The location is nice and secluded, but we were able to get to all the central Eleuthera amenities easily.

Cute House with a Nice View
House was the cutest beach cottage with an amazing view. Unfortunately, the weather was absolutely terrible which caused the power to go out for a few days and nights, as well as no running water. A generator would be nice as it sounds like the power goes out a lot, but Jackie was extremely accommodating throughout our whole stay! Also, Laura the housekeeper is a great person to have while staying there! Both Jackie and Laura made the experience well, even though the weather wasn’t ideal

Great location!
This house was in the perfect location for exploring both the north and south sides of the island. The road to it was clear and in good shape, which is not always the case. Everything was clean and comfy, and the house had everything we needed for a successful trip!

High Seas Adventure
The property’s cottage has an extraordinary view of the ocean as well as sunrise and sunset views! Loved to look up at the bright and beautiful stars each night. The air conditioning in all rooms was awesome. The cottage 2/2 was clean as a whistle. The power to cottage went out briefly twice but resolved quickly. Thank you Laura for your role in making our “Girls Trip” smooth and easy! Thank you Jackie for sharing your home with us❤️❗️
