Welcome to Coconut Point, a private 1 ½ acre beachfront estate on beautiful Double Bay Beach. Double Bay a two-mile stretch of pink sand protected by a barrier reef with just a handful of estate homes along the length of it. You will usually have the beach entirely to yourself.
Our NEW BEACHFRONT POOL was just completed. It can heated for your comfort for a fee of $50 per day.
There is some exposed rock between the sandy beach and the entrance to the ocean directly behind the house, but if you walk 100 yards south, the rock goes away and there is a pure sandy entrance into the ocean.
The views from Coconut Point are some of the best on the island. You can enjoy sunrise from the rear deck and sunset from the front.
Coconut Point features a spectacular great room with sweeping beach and ocean views through a wall of glass French doors. The spacious living area has comfortable seating for eight on sofas and chairs.
The dining area, which also enjoys the room’s sweeping ocean views, seat six at the table and four more at the adjacent kitchen island.
The modern open-plan kitchen, finished in quartz and stainless steel, is fully equipped and enjoys both ocean and garden views.
Coconut Point has three bedrooms. The master features a four-poster bed with beautiful ocean views, and a luxurious en-suite bath with an oversized walk-in rain shower.
The second bedroom is furnished with a queen bed and has a garden view.
The third bedroom, the children’s room, is furnished with a twin bed and a twin over full bunk bed, so it can sleep up to four.
These two bedrooms share a full bath with a shower/tub combination.
Coconut Point’s outdoor spaces are among the best on the island. The deck and patio, overlooking the beach and ocean with a 30-mile view, are furnished for lounging and dining. A perfect spot for morning coffee or an evening beverage. Coconut Point also has a wonderful screened porch with ocean views, and a new gazebo overlooking the beach.

There is a new grocery store called Mid Way just 5 minutes away, which has the basics. The town of Governors Harbour, 15 minutes by car from the property, has grocery stores, restaurants, liquor stores, two banks with ATMs, a bakery, gift shops, a dive shop, and a medical clinic. It has a nice little collection of 19th century homes and churches overlooking a picturesque harbor. The town of Palmetto Point, less than 10 minutes from the house, has several smaller stores and a good restaurant.
Upscale restaurants in the area include Tippy’s (international and fusion), The Buccaneer (Bahamian cuisine with Caribbean-Chinese fusion), La Bougainvillea (international cuisine), 1648 Restaurant (Bahamian cuisine inspired by European influences), Pascal’s at Sky Beach Club (International cuisine with Bahamian influences), and Bacchus Fine Foods (gourmet restaurant and food store). The above all have live music one or more nights a week, so there is live entertainment somewhere nearby almost every night. The Governors Harbour area also has numerous little takeouts and restaurants offering local cuisine, including Da Perk (coffee shop and sandwiches), Mate and Jenny’s (pizza and Bahamian), and the Sunset Inn (local cuisine). The new and excellent restaurant Fishbone Grill is now open, just a short drive.
