PLEASE NOTE: 7 NIGHT MINIMUM STAY. RATES ARE FOR TWO PEOPLE. EACH ADDITIONAL PERSON IS $20 PER NIGHT. OWNER APPROVAL REQUIRED PRIOR TO ADDING MORE GUESTS AFTER INITIAL BOOKING AGREEMENT.
The Hummingbird, on the Caribbean side, offers quiet and privacy on a long stretch of beach. Beyond the spacious seaside terrace is the clear, turquoise blue water of Balara Bay. The Hummingbird is ON THE BEACH. Take our private driveway from the Queen's Highway to a breathtaking setting. The home is surrounded with tropical grounds filled with bougainvillea, hibiscus, and numerous other flowers and plants. The HUMMINGBIRD's charm and character include a Savannah stone exterior, terraces, spacious private grounds, and a beach with a large Tiki Dome for seaside shade and comfort. Our beach is calm, shallow and safe for water play. Tropical foliage surrounds the home and property inviting peace.
All rooms have sea views. The spacious, private primary bedroom is situated in a small wing of its own. The bedroom has AC, ceiling fan, and ensuite bathroom. The guest bedroom has two twin beds and a king conversion kit. It also has AC, ceiling fan, and an ensuite bath with a large, walk-in shower. The front room features couch, loveseat, and chair. A sunroom with a wall of windows, adjoins the front room providing additional comfortable seating for quiet relaxation. The well-equipped kitchen includes a breakfast bar and table seating with 8 feet of window-views to the sea. Sliding glass doors, and cathedral ceilings give the home an open, tropical atmosphere. The interior is comfortable and inviting with rattan furniture and original works of local island artists. The house has WiFi, but no cable TV. Bring your own entertainment - internet connection is available for streaming (netflix, amazon prime, etc) check with your provider for international service specifics. Island utilities, including internet, have periodic disruptions.
Hummingbird's Balara Bay beachfront has a stretch of beach that borders the Caribbean Sea. You can walk all the way to the old docks at the far end of the bay. Kayaks and paddleboards are available for water play. Balara Bay offers our guests fishing as well as shelling for micro shells. Beach conditions are constantly changing – storms and tides leave varying levels of sand, coral rocks, seaweed and shells. WATER SHOES are recommended for water entry across coral rocks.
The Stone Beach Cottage is a 1250 square foot home; private, unpretentious, comfortable, and inviting on an extraordinary piece of Caribbean beachfront. Come visit!
Hummingbird's Floor Plan/Special Features: The primary bedroom wing is as close to the Caribbean as you can get! A pleasure to watch / listen to the varying moods, colors, sounds of the sea. The semi-private guest bedroom is across the house. This arrangement of rooms with the 'living area' in between, separates the two bedroom areas. In addition to the Caribbean sea breezes, the house has a wonderful air-flow pattern with its many windows and doors. Ceiling fans are throughout the home. The home and location offer a wide diversity of activities. For the sports enthusiast; swim, jog, fish, scuba, or snorkel. For the relaxer; sunbathe, yoga on the beach or locate a good book. Something for everyone.

Why they chose this property
Location. Location. Location. Balara Bay offers gently prevailing winds and crystal clear water. The beach is sheltered by Levy Island providing excellent swimming, kayaking, and paddle boarding. The home offers great proximity to Governor's Harbour, the island's largest settlement, with restaurants, music, entertainment, grocery stores, banks (with ATM), gift shops, and churches. A center island location provides convenient travel to North or South Eleuthera. This side if the island shelters the home from pounding seas and winds on Atlantic side.
What makes this property unique
Wonderful island location at a reasonable price.
