Luxurious 2-BR Home Steps from Caribbean w/Pool, Sunset Views, Snorkeling!

Welcome to Miranda House, your tropical home rising above the Caribbean Sea, just steps away. This luxury two-bedroom, two-bath house with views of the ocean and sunset is surrounded by lush vegetation and countless options for lounging in the sun or shade, including a wrap-around veranda.

Miranda House has access to a stunning members-only pool on the Atlantic side of Wykee Estates (a quick drive across Queen’s Highway) and, then, just past the pool, access to one of Eleuthera’s famous pink-sand beaches.

Miranda House features a large living room with a 50” flat screen Smart TV and DirecTV, Sonos sound bar, and BluRay DVD player. A writing desk, a screened in reading porch, a large screened in dining room that seats 8 beneath cooling fans, and an indoor dining area with a table that seats six.

The fully stocked kitchen has an open plan and leads to a kitchen island perfect for cocktails.

The downstairs bedroom features a king-sized bed and a private bath with shower, with views of the lush tropical grounds.

Walk out onto your enormous wrap-around veranda with sun and shade and views of the surrounding gardens, a perfect spot to lounge with a book or relax with morning coffee or a cool drink.

Miranda House comes with its very own bar! Welcome to the El Bar, the only private bar on the island. Situated just behind the main house, air-conditioned, equipped with refrigerator, wet bar, electricity and its very own history, just bring your own bottles and mixologists and enjoy.

Great House
We just stayed at Miranda House. It was everything we could have asked for. The beach was amazing, and there were never more than 3 other people within 400 yards of us. The home is exactly as shown in the pictures, and the sunsets from the upstairs bedroom balcony were worth the price by themselves.

Perfect spot to spend a relaxed week in the bahamas
The listing was hard to find, but once we found it it was perfect. Beautiful views, beautiful home, fully stocked with necessities and the kitchen was great though it had no measuring cups and measuring spoons. The second night was rough. I gave the property 4 star on listing correctly because they have a generator and it’s listed that they have it but it doesn’t work, which they know, it was set to off and we had two big storms that rolled through. The house, especially the master gets very hot without AC so we slept in the lower room and our daughter slept on the couch. That would not have worked if there was two couples. We also cooked up all the refrigerated food we bought since the power did not come back on for almost 24 hours. After that we had intermittent power outages. Other than that, everything was awesome. Beds were comfortable. They provide an amazing amount of towels. They have a gas stove which helps when the power is out. Lots of places to sit outside and relax as well as inside. The pool is a blast. It’s across queens highway and about 1/2 mile walk but it’s nice. Beach was beautiful and we snorkeled right off the dock and saw a starfish and lots of tropical fish. Very fun! I highly recommend the house. They also gave us lots of great places to eat. I would recommend La Bouganvillea 100% at lunch. It’s beautiful there and the snorkeling is awesome there as well.

Perfect for two couples
Fits of all, Linda was AMAZING. She made our stay as flawless as she could have. Yeah, we lost power, and water, but Linda helped us immediately. Beautiful house all in all. There is a coffee maker if anyone else reads this the answer is yes!

Excellent home for 2 couples
We booked our trip to Eleuthera. I wanted to find a perfect home for us and another couple. Miranda house was absolutely amazing from the screened in porch, where we ate breakfast, to the other, screened in porch with couch, so that we could lay around and read and drink coffee to the two wonderful bedrooms worth king size beds and their own bathrooms the home was absolutely amazing. Beautifully decorated with everything you could need for your stay.

Memorable Vacation
Miranda House was awesome for our family. Loved the location for exploring the island, all the beaches and restaurants. Beach and pool access was great and very close. Boat ramp was a fun place to walk to during down time. House had a great sunset view from upstairs bedroom porch. Comfortable seating on the porches all around the house. Definitely need a rental car to explore the area, you'll want to see everything. The vegetation around the property gave privacy but it was also a very peaceful location. Wish we had beach chairs and umbrella but some of the beaches had shady areas to sit. Host provided an awesome list of places to visit and we hit them all... Such a fun family location spot!

First time in Eleuthera was great
House was as advertised and even a little larger than expected. I would do it again. Island was very safe and friendly.
