Overview & Photos
Set on cliff top land, Neptune Cove's waterfront estate is like nothing you have seen before. With 400ft of private Caribbean frontage, the property is 40 feet above the crystal waters, providing breathtaking sea views and facing west for the majestic sunsets, enjoyed from every part of the property. Sunrises over the sea are also visible during the winter months!
Neptune Cove is less than a 10 minute walk (or 1 minute drive) from beautiful and pristine Rainbow Bay Beach. Famous for its calm, turquoise waters, Rainbow Beach also has good snorkeling.
Neptune Cove's covered wrap-around veranda offers shaded outdoor living, including a picturesque gazebo, a perfect setting for relaxing with a good book or to gather for sunset cocktails. This area is furnished with sofas, chairs, and tables so you can enjoy the sweeping Caribbean views and gentle sea breezes however you choose to relax.
Steps away from the main and guest houses is our oceanview infinity pool. Relax on lounge chairs on the pool deck or on the bar stools in the pool.
For those who choose to swim in the calm Caribbean waters at the base of the cliff, walk down a short fountain path to a natural alcove in the island’s limestone geological formation. It is here that you will find access into the clear waters of the Caribbean, both in and out of the sea via a short ladder. You will be truly amazed at the variety of fish you will see just snorkeling around the coral which is plentiful and healthy in this part of the Caribbean. In 20 minutes in the water recently, I saw queen angel fish, four-eyed butterfly fish, blue tangs, yellow tangs, spade fish, parrot fish, porkfish, various species of grouper and snapper, and many more.
After the sun sets, gather around the fire pit, furnished with Adirondack chairs, and just cherish the view and topography of the land and sea as the unique natural wonders they are. On a clear night, this is also an excellent spot for watching the firmament and falling stars!
Neptune Cove is located in the community known as Rainbow Bay. Our guests are permitted to use the convenient waterfront tennis court just a few minutes walk away.
The excellent food and drink and nightlife of the Sunset Cove (formerly known as the Rainbow Inn) is also just a 5 minute walk away. Grocery stores and liquor stores are a short drive.
Amenities include high-speed internet with WIFI, AC throughout, private pool, gas grill, and a back-up generator.

Incredible family vacation spot

Patrick Gibson recommends this vacation rental.
We had an amazing time at Neptune Cove. My wife and I and our three adult children had plenty of room and everything we needed. Swimming in the sea was a highlight, and most days we did not leave the house. Two lunch spot restaurants and a grocery/liquor store in James Cistern made cooking and eating convenient. Pool was a little chilly, but felt great in the afternoon.

We were a group of nine people between 18 and 86 years old. The property is perfectly laid out to give everyone space, but also allow everyone to come together for meals, time in the pool, watching sea turtles swim in the ocean from the gazebo. Special shout-out to Captain Jay who was a great help and great entertainment. A note that Brenda is no longer available to cook meals for guests even though the rental materials say she does. We contacted her and she said, "I don't do that anymore. I keep telling th

This home was well appointed and just a short drive to the most gorgeous beaches around in rainbow bay. The kids had a blast jumping off the cliff in the back. WiFi strong in the main house, and we had everything we could ask for. Everyone we met was super friendly and willing to help at a moments notice- we are so thankful for the hospitality!

Our Empty Nesters group of eight had a wonderful stay at Neptune Cove! The location was perfect for venturing to a number of beautiful beaches and sites to the North (Gaulding Cay / Queens Bath - 20 minutes and Sapphire Blue Hole / Preachers Cave Beach - 40 minutes) and to the South (Twin Cove / French Leave Beach / Governors Harbour - 30 minutes and Ten Bay - 40 minutes) with Rainbow Beach and Hidden Beach just a couple minutes away. The layout of the villa is perfect for a large group and the views are am

This rental is amazing in every way. We got married on a nearby beach and had 11 people at the home. It was very comfortable for a large group with many outdoor areas for congregating or privacy. The Caribbean access here is so fun. The property was well appointed with all we needed. The nearby beaches and points of interest are easily accessible by short car trips. The small nearby store is well stocked for light needs. The larger stores about an hour away are needed for a good stock of foods upon initial

Neptune Cove is a special property on a beautiful setting. To find a house on an out island that is this well appointed and cared for is hard. If you have stayed on many islands you know what I mean. The grounds and pool were kept manicured while we were there. The inside of the house was clean, quiet and comfortable. Well stocked. You can hang here, go 3 mins to the beach, 10 minutes to a beach bar, or 40 mins to Harbor Island or Spanish Wells. The grotto was awesome and good snorkeling right there --we

Probably the most amazing property we’ve ever stayed at. So many thoughts put into the layout of the space available. The home was well equipped and very clean. The beds were so comfortable and so much space for large families. The caretakers made sure we knew how to work everything and that we could call for any issues. The DIRECTV went out and the were on it immediately and got it fixed asap. We couldn’t have been more pleased with our stay. Fantastic experience!

Neptunes Cove was perfect for our large family. The location is wonderful being so close to Rainbow Beach, JC andEast and Final. The house was extremely homely and had absolutely everything we needed. The owner and caretakers were quick to respond and didn’t mind answering all our questions. With it being up on a cliff above the ocean there was a nice breeze that helped keep the no seeums away. Highly recommend Neptune’s Cove. Each morning and afternoon 2 sea turtles would visit and we

Brad Seitter recommends this vacation rental.
This home is what you would draw up when thinking of the perfect Caribbean home. The views are amazing. Swim and snorkel with the sea turtles right off the back of the house. Every morning began with coffee in the open gazebo overlooking the ocean and ended with the adult beverage of our choice in the same spot. The best beach on the island is Rainbow Beach and its only a mile or so down the road. House was super clean and the owners and caretakers are great hosts. If you want your dream Caribbean vacation, start with this home. You wont regret it!

RODNEY YOHE recommends this vacation rental.
If you are looking for a property that checks all the boxes, then look no further. The property was clean, well stocked, maintained, and the owner and care takers were fantastic. We were looking for a quiet, private, spacious, property where 3 to 4 couples could stretch out and take in all that Eleuthera has to offer. A couple property must were, a pool, access to water, A/C, generator, en suite bathrooms, centrally located, and a view. This property had all of the above and then some. The view is one of the best on the island. The snorkeling out back is world class. The grotto/fire pit with wood provided was just a bonus. We have visited Eleuthera several times and this was the most comfortable property we have stayed in. The pictures do not do this property justice. We struggled to leave the property every day and could not wait to return for a sunset every evening. We can not wait to return to Neptunes Cove. Thank you for sharing this amazing property!

Great house, the outdoor space was wonderful. There were 10 adults on our trip, and if we wanted space or privacy it was easy to find at this house. Kitchen was well stocked with what we needed to cook, etc.
Beautiful views from the porch, covered gazebo & pool area.
Unfortunately, the ladder into the water was missing a “cap” and we could not put it all the way in the “down” position. So, getting into & out of the water was tricky (we brought our own paddle boards)

We stayed at Neptune's Cove in February 2022. We loved it. The rental had so much space and the layout worked well for us. It was clean and had everything we needed for our stay (plenty of towels, kitchen was very well stocked, etc.). The location of the house was not too far from town and the views were amazing. We would stay here again!

The location of this property is stunning, and the "on-line" photos make it look really impressive.... However, the property is showing age, and we had some issues with water pressure in some of the showers, lights that didn’t work, a screen door that was not able to be used due to poor maintenance, small things, etc. etc. The day we arrived the pool was dirty-not nearly as pristine as in the photos. On the second day the pool guy came and cleaned the pool. While the kitchen had a good supply of
