Advisor - Bahamas: A Luxe Guide to Eleuthera
Curator’s statement

Eleuthera holds a special place for me as our family home has been located here for over 10 years. It has always been the place we come together as a family to celebrate. The island has a special quality to it that you can’t quite describe—magic, remote, and heartbreaking-ly beautiful. It is the perfect place for so many different types of vacations—family, romantic, honeymoons, solo travel.

Where to stay

Unlock perks by contacting Maggie Russell to book your trip.

Day 1: Bahamian arrival

Land at North Eleuthera Airport. Check in at The Other Side Hotel. Have lunch on site, with all produce being grown right there on the property’s farm.

After lunch, take a quick nap at the dreamlike pool. It is located directly on the beach. For dinner, have the property ferry you in their own private boat to dine at their nearby property—The Ocean View on Harbor Island.

Day 2: Pink sand & spa

Wake up in your private luxury beachside tent and wander down to breakfast by the ocean. After enjoying the private beach and pool, get a hotel transfer to take you back to Harbor Island, where you can rent a golf cart to go and explore.

Have lunch and massages at the beautiful Dunmore Hotel, and then take a relaxing walk on pink sand beaches before returning back to The Other Side for a farm-fresh dinner.

Day 3: Potlatch Club

Check in at the Potlatch Club. After enjoying breakfast, check out and make your way down Eleuthera Island to the stunning newly renovated Potlatch Club Hotel. Here you’ll check in, enjoy lunch, and explore the property. For dinner, head to the Locals Only Tippy’s. Drink a Kalik while watching the famous Bahamas sunset.

Need to know

Bahamas is split into 'family and non-family’ Islands. Eleuthera is considered a family island, and that’s what makes it so enjoyable to visit. You always feel welcome among locals. There are many hotels on Eleuthera, but not all are what they seem. That is why it’s so important to work with an advisor who is super familiar with the area!
