The Cove Eleuthera

$$-$$$, Eleuthera Island


Fodor's Review:

Reopened with an updated look in 2005, 30 secluded acres set the tone for this relaxing seaside inn (formerly known as Pineapple Cove). A rocky promontory separates two coves: one has a small sandy beach with palapas, lounge chairs, and kayaks, the other is rocky and ideal for snorkeling. The poolside patio is a good place for breakfast or relaxing cocktails. Clustered rooms have ocean views, tile floors, high slanted ceilings, 600-thread-count sheets, and white rattan furnishings. MP3 players are available on request. Take in both the sunrise and the sunset from one of two suites in the Point House; it's built on the promontory with a 180-degree view of the coves and the sea. The spacious, window-lined dining room ($$) serves three meals a day, blending classic Continental with Bahamian to produce delights such as lobster tail with lime and thyme beurre blanc, and potato-crusted sea bass. A prix-fixe menu is available.
