Overview & Photos
A stay in Sand Dollar at Ten Bay Beach is a true gift of the Caribbean. From the moment one walks through the stained glass front door, one is immersed in a panoramic view of stunning Ten Bay Beach. Outdoor features include our vast teak deck which overlooks the turquoise Caribbean Sea. There is a customized barbecue, many lounge chairs, a dining table and a bar around the palm tree which is perfect for sipping tropical drinks. There is also a running bar along the whole deck facing the water which is perfect for sliding a chair under and slowly drinking a morning coffee while watching schools of fish below. Below the deck there are two double kayaks for exploring Ten Bay.
The living room during the day is bathed by sunlight streaming in from several sliding doors offering amazing views. Stretch out on the comfy sofas and enjoy watching TV or quiet time reading a book. There is an additional lounge room with a large table for games and couch for relaxation. Yoga mats are available for use indoor or on the deck.
Prepare delicious meals in the bright and sunny kitchen with an incredible array of appliances such as a highly sophisticated coffee machine and panini, bread, rice and waffle makers. Enjoy sitting in the quiet nook for two by the window or at the dining table that can easily seat 6-8 people.
Each of the four bedrooms is unique, comfy and with native Bahamian art pieces. The master bedroom with a king size bed is sequestered in the back of the house with an incredible view of the beach and an en-suite bathroom. Relax on the gorgeous sofa as an option. The second bedroom has a queen size bed with a wall of windows to enjoy the view of the beach with en-suite bathroom. A chic smaller bedroom with a full size bed has a beautiful en-suite bathroom with a walk in shower. The fourth bedroom is spacious with an amazing view of the beach. Guests may choose either a king size bed or two twin beds. Directly across the hall is a bathroom with walk in shower.
Enjoy the luxury of the large capacity washer and dryer with an area to hang and fold laundry.
Amenities include back-up generator, AC throughout, super-fast Starlink WIFI, TV with Apple TV box, games, Yoga mats, Ballet Barre, washer/dryer, charcoal grill, and two double sea kayaks!
The town of Savannah Sound, 5 minutes from the property, has a good grocery store, Midway Cost Cutters, and an excellent oceanfront restaurant, Fishbone Grill. The town of Palmetto Point, less than 10 minutes from the house, has several smaller stores and a good restaurant. The town of Governors Harbour, the main town on the island, just 15 minutes by car from the property, has grocery stores, restaurants, liquor stores, two banks with ATMs, a bakery, gift shops, a dive shop, and a medical clinic. It has a nice little collection of 19th century homes and churches overlooking a picturesque harbor. You can buy fresh fish and lobster every afternoon from fisherman at the town dock. Friday night Fish Fry in Governors Harbour is a street/beach party that brings together all the tourists and locals with food, drink, and dancing in the street. You won’t want to miss it.

Ashley H. from Saint Peters, Missouri United States recommends this vacation rental.
The Sand Dollar had everything we needed for our stay. Kristin and Vanessa were wonderful to work with! The views were amazing and being able to just walk right down to the beach was so convenient.
Our only recommendation would be to consider a generator. We had several power outages throughout our stay and it would’ve been nice to have.
Otherwise we really enjoyed our time there and look forward to coming back!

Michael C. from Poplar Bluff, MO US recommends this vacation rental.
The sand dollar is a large house situated on one of the best beaches of the Caribbean side of the island. It’s the only house with “walk out” beach access to 10 bay beach. We loved everything about the house except.... The water situation. The house’s water source is its own cistern. We were constantly worried about running out of water and needing to have more trucked in. The property manager facilitated everything but it was still a concern. She was very responsive to take care of our needs even bringing an emergency water delivery at 11pm! We love the house and island and would definitely book the house again!

We are so glad you enjoyed Sand Dollar house. We are very sorry about the water situation. This was only because a water pipe had broken. The water pipe has now been fixed.

Christopher H. from Dunkirk, MD United States recommends this vacation rental.
Loved this rental. The house is enormous. We were a family of 6 and everyone had plenty of room to spread out and also to come together for meals, deck fun and games. The snorkeling out around the rocky cliffs is really amazing and team with life (including turtles and rays). Vanessa was so helpful as a caretaker and ensured we had everything we needed. Will be going again!

This is our second time renting this house. The house was a great fit for us, with plenty of seating on the deck, plenty of beds and baths. Low tide is amazing for toddlers:) Having the kayaks, water gear, and direct beach access was a big bonus. Thanks for a great family getaway.

vanessa v. from Pipersville, PA US recommends this vacation rental.
Sand Dollar is perfectly located on Ten Bay: you can walk out directly onto the beach and you have a view of the entire area. The bedrooms and bathrooms are large, clean, and have everything you need. The seating areas inside and outside are large enough for big groups to be comfortable. The kitchen has everything you need to cook in and the dishwasher is a great perk, as are the washer/dryer. It's an easy 10 mins to the Midway Cost Cutter, or ~15 mins to Gov Harbour. Vanessa the caretaker was fantastic!

A guest from Landisville, pa United States recommends this vacation rental.
This house is absolutely perfect! We stayed in July 2023 and had a wonderful stay. Our group ranged from age 11-73, everyone loved the house and Ten Bay. Vanessa was a huge help to us while we were there, and worked overtime to fix any issues we had! We would stay here again as you can’t compare the location, beach and water. The house is very large, comfortable beds and the beach is pristine. You can snorkel to the left of the property and take the kayaks out on the water. Would love to see screens installed so that you could turn the air off and get a good breeze through the house. We already dream of coming back one day and spending the day in the water!
