ABOUT THE ANCHORAGE.....
The Anchorage vacation rental sits among cool palms and green shrubs steps away from the stunning Rainbow Bay Beach along Wandering Shore Drive, a great central location and just a 15 minute drive from Governor's Harbour International Airport. Equipped with everything you might need to make your holiday as adventurous or as relaxing as you want, it's the perfect base for exploring the island, and a great spot for doing nothing at all.
You're guaranteed a warm welcome by Your Hosts, Nicky and Stan. We can organise a meal, arrange pre-arrival groceries, arrange a day out or a nice relaxing massage in the comfort of the cottage, or we'll simply leave you to enjoy the peace and quiet - whichever you prefer.
If you've had enough peace and quiet, why not make your way up to the The Sunsert Cove & Rainbow Room (The Rainbow Inn) which is a few minutes drive away to enjoy a cocktail or two or have a meal (note as of December 2024 - sadly the restaurant is closed until further notice).
If you want to venture a little further into James Cistern a 5-10 minute drive away, you will find Delish Lifestyle Beach Sports Bar and Restaurant, LeoRose Sunset Beach Bar & Grill, Mel's Snack Shack, D'Jay's Cafe, Da Conch Hut, Juice City and the infamous and oh so delicious Stubbs BBQ (Under the Tamarind Tree Grill). Delish Lifestyle and LeoRose both have live music on certain days. Heading North into the settlement of Hatchet Bay a 5-10 minute drive away, you will find The Front Porch, Twin Brothers, Rednip Sports Lounge & Grill, Boaters Haven Bar, Grill & Convenience Store.

There is plenty to do around Rainbow Bay!
If you enjoy walking or running, then you will find you can do this all around Rainbow from the Bight Side over to the Atlantic side.
Aside from Rainbow Bay Beach directly on your doorstep which is perfect for swimming, snorkeling, kayaking and paddle boarding, why not check out Hidden Beach, Smuggler's Beach Twin Beach and Driftwood Beach over on the Atlantic side.
Are you keen tennis or pickleball players? Then head on over to the community tennis court (available to guests of The Anchorage only), located along Lazy Shore Road (guests to bring own equipment).
MEET YOUR HOSTS.....
Myself and my husband Stan are your Hosts, since our retirement, we spend most of our time here on the beautiful island of Eleuthera with our potcake Copper and our two cats. We have had a connection with this island for over 20 years. Our background is in construction, our passions are sailing and traveling with a little bit of creativity thrown into the mix!
During your stay we, your Hosts, live nearby and are available if you need us otherwise we respect your privacy and leave you in peace to enjoy your vacation. You can contact us on the number provided on the Welcome Note in the cottage. As we are nearby we do tend to share nature's bounty such as our papayas or coconuts if available or if we are baking, be it bread of some sort or a cake, then we may just leave a little something for you to enjoy!

Please enjoy your stay with us!
