Fodor's Expert Review The Cove Eleuthera

Queen's Hwy., Bahamas Fodor's Choice

Forty secluded acres studded with scenic beach cottages set the tone for this relaxing island escape; a rocky promontory separates two coves, each with a sandy beach and calm water, perfect for snorkeling. The poolside patio is a good place for breakfast or cocktails, but sitting at the Point Bar (or the "Sunset Bar"), built into the rock between the coves, will become one of your favorite activities. Newly renovated clustered cottages have ocean or garden views, high-slanted ceilings, flat-screen TVs, and rustic furnishings. Take in the sunset from any of the three restaurants on the property, work up a sweat at the new fitness center, or relax in your private cottage and order room service.

PROS

  • decadent holistic body and beauty treatments at the resort's spa
  • top-rated amenities
  • one of the most luxurious places to stay on the island

CONS

  • need a car if you want to do anything outside the property
  • limited dining options
  • some lower-budget rooms lack the privacy of the bungalows and villas
