The Cove, Eleuthera

The Cove sits on the long, thin and beautiful island of Eleuthera, to the east of Nassau. With its pink-sand beaches, shallow waters and natural inland swimming spots, this pretty retreat is the ideal spot for soaking in the Caribbean surroundings.

The stylish and secluded rooms, suites and villas combine elegant furnishings with white linens, polished woods and panelled walls, and you can wake up to some of the most gorgeous views in the Bahamas.

The villas have sleek white, minimalist interiors and indoor and outdoor showers - pick one with a private pool and your very own butler for some Caribbean indulgence.

This tropical island is the menu inspiration for the restaurants at The Cove. Locally-sourced organic meat and fish, coupled with vegetables from the hotel's own gardens, brings the freshest ingredients to your table. The beachfront Freedom Restaurant & Sushi Bar offers understated elegance in a relaxed atmosphere - sample fresh sushi as you indulge your senses - and enjoy a gourmet fusion of local, American and Asian cuisine at the Gregory Town Grill.

Have a sunset handcrafted cocktail at the Point Bar, perched on the edge of the bluff between two beaches.

The beautifully peaceful pool looks out over the serene Caribbean waters, where you can take a morning dip or lie on a sunlounger. Maintain your workout regime at the fitness centre, or alternatively, completely pamper yourself in the spa.

There is a whole range of activities for you to choose from. Set out on one of the complimentary bicycles to explore, take to the air or the sea in a seaplane or boat, and go kayaking, paddle boarding and more - the options are endless.

The hotel is just moments away from the lively town of Gregory, so make the most of the gourmet restaurants and stylish shops, and immerse yourself in the local lifestyle.
