"Great stay!
The property in Rock Sound was very conveniently located to shops, restaurants and the airport. Check in was smooth and the house was extremely clean. We were travelling with my adult daughter who needed to stay connected to the internet for her job, and we arrived to find that there was an island-wide internet outage. The property manager was even able to find us a MiFi box that allowed her to continue to work! Everyone was extremely helpful and friendly. We will definitey be back!"

"One of the best rentals we’ve ever stayed in!
We had such a great time in Eleuthera, and having this space to come back to every day was amazing. The beds were very comfortable, and there was enough sleeping space for the four of us. The AC kept us cool at night. I loved that there were toiletries available in case we forgot something, like bug spray. The out door shower was convenient to rinse sand off of our beach things. We had dinner two nights at Frigate’s, next to the rental, and it was pretty good food. The “concierge” service was super helpful because we arrived on a holiday and everything was closed. It was nice to come in and have groceries already there!! The rental is right on the water to which was amazing!"

"Sand Dollar Review June 2024
What a fantastic place! The people of Eleuthera are all so kind and welcoming. What a pleasure to deal with the property managers of this rental. Additionally, the house it self is spacious, up to date and has everything you would need. "

"Amazing! Amazing! Amazing!
Our hosts were absolutely gracious. The home was superb on all accounts and them offering to stock the fridge and cabinets was over the top awesome. Every Airbnb should do that."

"A great place to explore
This was our home base to explore the beaches and snorkeling spots on this and. We had a wonderful time. The house was clean the air conditioner was cold. The Internet did work fast. There were plenty of dishes, plenty of towels and as a bonus, a washer and dryer so you could clean your clothes before you come home. The property was perfect. I can highly recommend.
We use the beach chairs daily, and they were a wonderful addition to explore the beaches on this side of the island. "

"Sand Dollar Cottage
House was pristine & super comfortable. Chandra was gracious,informative & responsive. Location was great- close to airport, restaurants,grocery store & beaches, not really the textbook definition of oceanfront, but ok if you know that going in. Fav meal was cheeseburger at Louie’s (next to the ice cream store). Everyone was super friendly. Best thing was the deserted beaches. Worst thing were the no see ums... they are no joke- lather up with Vicks vapor rub-"

"Wonderful experience at Sand Dollar Cottage!
Our visit to Eleuthera was 2/3/24-2/17/24. Everything about the Sand Dollar Cottage was amazing! VERY clean! Well equipped with more than what you need. Close to the market, which is so nice! We enjoyed being able to spend some days down at the waterfront using Frigate's restaurant as our place for lunch and drinks throughout the day. The location is on the southern end of the island, so keep that in mind. We didn't really have a sense for the location before our visit. Rock Sound is a wonderful area with many things to see and do. Chandra and Thomas were wonderful in their responses to any questions we had or needs for the cottage. I highly recommend Sand Dollar Cottage and hope to visit again in the future!"

"Wonderful home!
We wanted a clean, nicely appointed house for a few days in Rock Sound. The property was exactly as described, but much bigger than I expected. The house had everything we needed - every utensil, blankets, soaps and towels. It even had scuba equipment! It was spotless too. It is next to the Frigate restaurant/bar so got a bit rowdy in the evenings, but never past 10pm. The Frigate did have really good food! I would stay here again. "

"Loved every minute of our stay
The Sand Dollar Cottage was beautiful, well appointed, clean, comfortable, and met all our needs - close to the water, restaurant and grocery store. We anchored our boat just off the shore line and thoroughly enjoyed our 3-night stay. We highly recommend the Sand Dollar Cottage."

"SAND DOLLAR COTTAGE WAS WONDERFUL. AND TAYLOR&TAYLOR
I have had issues with have issues again! I used only because we liked the Sand Dollar Cottage so much. The Cottage owner was AWSOME. Highly recommend booking Sand Dollar Cottage, if folks could use another booking agency. issues:
1. Could not address a LATE ARRIVAL
2. No information that we should wait until a week before to get any info on arrival.
3. could not provide an address. Cottage owner had to tell us they don't use address in Eleuthera.
I give 5-stars to the Cottage owner.
4. Rental Car by Taylor and Taylor was a disaster. We were supposed to get a SUV. Several were listed on Taylor's website. We required extra size for oversized luggage. They showed up with a Buick ENCORE. Totally unacceptable. We had to fold down the back seat to fit luggage into back. So three adults and five bags and three carry-ons were jammed into the car.
A very UNSAFE condition. We requested a larger rental after arriving Rock Sound from North
Eleuthera Airport. Taylor refused. THE RENTAL CAR EXPERIENCE RUINED OUR VACATION IN ELEUTHER. NEVER GOING TO USE TAYLOR AND TAYLOR OR AGAIN!!!

"Wonderful time in Eleuthera
Sand Dollar Cottage was a nice layout, well furnished and super comfortable. Being elevated with a wide deck all the way around the cottage enhanced the views/use of the outdoor space. No problem with road or restaurant noise. Overall an excellent value. "

"Wonderful Getaway in the out island Eleuthera
I taught school in Eleuthera 27 years ago and returned over Thanksgiving. Although much has changed, I found the people to be just as kind and genuine-always ready to help when needed. As we all have heard, life in the island is more laid back, less hectic than the life most Americans experience. When we come to Eleuthera, we need to remember to be patient and know your car, your food, your groceries will all “soon come”- and truly you will realize how lovely Bahamian people are in the out islands.
Our car rental from the Pinder’s was delivered to us, our snorkeling time was done with Captain Jolly, and our wonderful rental was at the Sand Dollar in Rock Sound. Ms Melanie could not have provided us with anything more. Not only was the rental exactly as pictured, but we chose groceries that were delivered at no charge before our arrival, there was coffee, sunscreen, bug spray(which we didn’t need), and all the items you would expect in any hotel. I cannot recommend the Sand Dollar enough as it was wonderful. We ate at several different restaurants and all of it was truly top notch.
We genuinely could not have asked for more during our stay- our return trip to Eleuthera was truly worth the wait."

"Super Property!
We stayed at the Sand Dollar property. Every step of the way was properly managed by the team. The property was just as advertised if not better, clean and ready for our stay. Communication with the team was great from beginning to end. Highly recommend!"

"Paradise
Beautiful home! Modern with all the amenities and everything you need.
Home was well appointed and very clean and everything in working order. My daughter and I stayed one week. There was a great restaurant right next door! Very close to a modern and well stocked grocery store. Check in and check out was a breeze. We highly recommend Sand Dollar Cottage. "

"Lovely Cottage Vacation
We enjoyed a lovely relaxing week vacation in the Sand Dollar Cottage. We wanted 2 bedrooms and a large Living Room. Very nicely designed floor plan. Excellent kitchen and very clean Linens. Wonderful management by the owner...easy check-in and out.
Next to Rock Sound Market for ease of grocery shopping. Beautiful water views from the deck and a great restaurant (Frigates) on the property: eat in or take out! All very convenient and delightful!"

"Eleuthra get away
Our rental space was wonderful. Loved that both rooms had king sized beds and en suite w/ the bathroom. The power did got out once, which occurs once in a while on the island, but the property management brought us over a battery to charge phones and a portable wifi to help us stay connected. We had all the necessities in the kitchen for making at home meals. The snorkel and beach chairs were perfect for us to go explore the beautiful beaches. Also, nice to have Frigates restaurant on site and the nice market near by. There are few good markets on the island so this was really helpful!"

"Beautiful rental in Rock Sound
We spent a week here and everything was wonderful. New fluffy towels & bedding, beautifully decorated and right next door to one of our favorite restaurants on the island. WiFi was good and fast too! "

"Fantastic Rental!
Our family of four had a wonderful time staying at Sand Dollar Cottage. We’ve rented all over through and this was one of the best. Everything we needed to enjoy our trip was there. Full kitchen with everything, grill, enough towels, beach chairs, snorkel stuff, etc.... Just a fully stocked well thought out rental. Chandra and the whole team couldn’t have been easier to work with. Chandra even helped us track down our daughter’s phone when she forgot it in the Nassau airport. We loved the quiet end of the island and would come here again. The Frigate restaurant next door was very good as well and though the cottage is very close to it, it was not a bother at all. "

"Great surprise
Since the first day to the lady our stay went so smoothly. The house was perfect for me and my family. We felt like home. Very friendly people anywhere. The house was close to supermarkets and restaurants we had options to diversify our meals. We cooked a lot at the house where we didn’t miss anything in the kitchen. Extremely equipped in this property we even had all sort of things to enjoy the beach from snorkels to chairs, cooler or umbrella. Our stay was just perfect. "

Great place right on the water. It was clean and well-stocked. Easy access 2 dinghy dock that came in handy since we sailed there. Frigates bar was also a plus with great food and drinks and 50 feet from our front door."

"Sand Dollar review
I almost hate to say it was fabulous because we want to keep this wonderful spot to ourselves! The kitchen was well stocked, the best market on the island is a block away too! Sunsets were magnificent!! The only thing that would make our stay even better is two hammocks under the beautiful flowers on the deck for a nap! Thomas and Chandra are such gracious hosts! Beaches were close and we explored a different one every day! GET an SUV as the roads to the beaches call for it. This is NOT a spot for those who need nightlife but if a beach, a drink and a sunset make you happy it’s your perfect spot."

"Very happy with our stay and you should be too.
This was part of a 13 day trip to the Bahamas. We spent our first 4 nights in a eco hut along the cliffs outside Gregory Town and moved on for 4 more nights to Rock Sound before hitting Spanish Wells. We couldn't have been happier bouncing around the way we did and with all the chosen accommodations. As you can see, the home is spacious, comfy, great views, and well equipped (you need to get a pot holder :)
The grocery which is near is a HUGE plus. We ate in most meals and explored during the day. I will be posting a full tour of the home on YouTube named (Sand Dollar Cottage - Rock Sound Eleuthera) if you'd like to check out. I also welcome friend request on Facebook (Jeremy Gearries) if you have any tips on the island or in the Caribbean in general. You will not be disappointed when you book the Sand Dollar Cottage. Check in and Check out was smooth sailing. We will highly recommend. Jeremy and Sara from Indiana (US)"

"Wonderful Seaside Cottage
Sand Dollar Cottage was absolutely lovely.
My two kids and I spent 4 nights here on our first trip to the Bahamas.
The cottage was perfect for us.
So cozy and comfortable.
We immediately felt at home.
Thomas and his son were very kind and helpful.
When the washing machine has a hiccup the repairman was there right away to fix it.
The snorkeling gear to borrow was a nice touch as were the beach chairs.
We would definitely come back.
Thanks kindly,
Donna"

"Charming Cottage, Charming Island
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sand Dollar Cottage! The home was comfortable, the accommodations perfect for our family, and the people of Eleuthera were so, so charming. The property management people were delightful, helpful, and cared very much for our needs. The kitchen was well stocked (and I especially appreciated the drawer of leftover seasonings that were shared from previous visitors.) The bathrooms were roomy, as were the bedrooms. We never felt cramped, or lacking in anything. The full-sized washer and dryer were very much appreciated, as was the outside shower allowing us to rinse off after swimming and diving activities.
We had a rental car emergency (ok...I confess--I lost the keys in the ocean) and needed help with transportation back to the cottage, plus access to an extra house key. When I called the cottage owners, they dropped everything they were doing to ensure to pick up and take us home. The next day, they checked on us to make sure we were getting our problem taken care of. Eleuthera is an island of angels!
Thank you to the Thomas and Chandra Sands; Pam; and Deirdre for all of the care they provided to ensure we had a great vacation."

"Amazing, fantastic, a dream :)
That was a house of my dream. When I get rich - I definitely will buy/build the same ). In cottage you have everything you need, from barbecue to snorkeling. So - take minimum stuff to your vacation, because you will have all in the apartments already. "

"Lovely Stay!
Sand Dollar Cottage is located very conveniently near RS airport and there is also a local grocery store just down the street within walking distance. The house is lovely and very comfortable. The location is unique in that it is right by the restaurant and we enjoyed this convenience ultimately. The house was as advertised and very clean when we arrived. It was easy to care for and there was plenty of room for our family of four (two kids). Sand Dollar Cottage is a great way to live locally and offers a great location to drive anywhere on the island in a reasonable amount of time."

"Excellent Rental, Can't Wait to Go Back
We stayed in the Sand Dollar Cottage for a week, and it was perfect. The location was great, the porch is perfect for sitting out, the beds are comfy. I am already planning a return trip. It's location in Rock Sound is ideal for exploring both the south end of Eleuthera and going back up North. Frigates Bar and Grill is right next door, and the food, drinks and staff are all great. Highly recommend staying here! "
