About this property

Beachfront Getaway on Winding Bay - Pink Sand, Turquoise water

Just steps aways from one of top-rated beaches on Eleuthera, 'Thereabouts' on Winding Bay, is a lovely, family-friendly vacation rental waiting to welcome you home. With magnificent views in every room, the open, light-filled living area is decorated in an updated Bahamian style with loads of comfort. It features cathedral ceilings, and has sliding doors on either side to allow for cool island breezes. This is a beach house built for people who love the beach, with two large patios, outdoor showers, and plenty of privacy. Wake up to a gorgeous sunrise then spend the day snorkeling, kayaking with sea turtles, exploring the two+mile beach and surrounding Cays or just relaxing in a hammock in our beachside Chickee Hut. You'll be surprised how fast the time goes once you slow down. At night, discover the wonder of watching a panoramic night sky instead of TV. There are no screens (TV's) here ( but, yes, to wifi). What you will find are are plenty of games and puzzles and books. This is your chance to unplug and discover what relaxation really feels like.

Our Favorite Vacation
We came to Thereabouts 8 years ago with no kids and this place held a place in our memories that we weren’t sure it could live up to with kids. Somehow, it was more. This time we came with 8 and 10 boys and the chance to disconnect from the world and reconnect with eachother. I cannot explain in words what this place means to my husband and me and now to my 2 boys - they explored the waters with joy and confidence. We spent every night making dinner, playing board games and listening to music. No TV or electronics for a week and time to just relax and be present? Yes, this is the place.

Havre de paix
Nous avons récemment loué une jolie maison très fonctionnelle et confortable. Située dans un coin très tranquille, elle était parfaite pour nous. La plage dans la baie était très calme et peu profonde, ce qui était idéal pour les enfants. Nous avons passé un excellent séjour et espérons y retourner un jour peut-être. Nous recommandons cette location à tous ceux qui cherchent un endroit paisible pour se reposer en famille.

About the host

Hosted by Elaine Eaves McCormick

Host profile image
Hi, my name is Elaine Eaves McCormick. My parents built this house and our family has enjoyed it for many years. The house was completely renovated in 2012, all new windows and doors, central air, Kitchen and baths modernized. The house continues to be well maintained as our family tries to spend as much time as we can there. It really is a very special place. I know that you'll agree once you've visited.

Why they chose this property

Thereabouts is situated on the most desirable section of Winding Bay—one of Eleuthera’s best beaches. The pink sand beach at Thereabouts slopes gently into gin-clear warm water. Thereabouts is one of only a dozen homes on Winding Bay and most of the year, it feels like a private paradise.

What makes this property unique

Thereabouts is a short walk to one of the most beautiful beaches I have ever seen. In addition to sunbathing and beach--combing, nearby reefs offer amazing snorkeling and Bay fishing year-round. Bone fish are regularly seen and caught in Winding Bay, Bonefish Creek (behind the house) and Half Sound Bay (at the far end of the cut).
