Wayne was fantastic with communication and made sure we had everything we need. Scott and Erica the caretakers of the property came and check on us and gave us bait for fishing. The location is close to everything but very private. The view was amazing. The best fishing and snorkeling is right off the dock. Rented a car from Edgar. They really made sure we were taken care off. You need to understand eluthera. It’s not for everyone. Chez Cay was perfect for us and already planning on returning. Thank you Wayne, Alonza, Scott and Erica

Outstanding rental
Chez Cay is two structures right on the water. One cottage is a living, dining and kitchen with a loft. The other has a master bedroom and small room with two twin beds. The home had everything that we needed for a comfortable stay and the view is breathtaking. The owner answered all of our questions and provided a lot of helpful information about the island. We would definitely stay again!

Great Governors Harbour House
Just returned from an 8 day vacation at Chez Cay on our 3rd trip to Eleuthera. The location is excellent and very close to Governor's Harbour. We enjoyed great swimming and snorkeling right in front of the house. The water access was very easy, even with the paddleboards we traveled with. In past trips we have had great sunsets and stargazing, but the skies were mostly overcast during our trip otherwise the deck would have been a perfect spot. The house was very clean, there was an abundance of linens and towels, and the kitchen was very well stocked. There is one other house nearby but there was no one there during our stay and the landscaping provides some privacy if there was someone there. We were fortunate to make it to Lighthouse Beach before construction begins and enjoyed a number of other great beaches on Eleuthera during our trip. We have stayed in the Governor's Harbour area the last two trips because of its central location and amenities like the fish market, grocery stores and restaurants. The owner was very responsive before and during our trip and provided detailed information on the home and the island prior to our arrival. I would definitely recommend this house for anyone considering a trip to Eleuthera.

Family Christmas in the Bahamas
We loved our stay at this wonderful house! It was everything we were hoping for. Close enough to town but secluded enough for privacy. We loved sitting on the deck at the edge of the water having cocktails and watching the sunset every evening. The sunsets were amazing! The stars at night are so bright and amazing! The house sleeps 6 but is perfect for 4 or 5. Our family of 6 had no problems with the sleeping options. The kitchen is stocked well for cooking. The living room and dining areas are comfortable. The wireless internet worked great. There is not a Television in the house but we liked that! If I had to come up with a suggestion it would be to add additional lighting in the living room. Other than that We loved it and would highly recommend staying here. We will be back for sure! The Island of Eleuthera is amazingly beautiful. What a treasure.

Quiet hide away
This property looks exactly as advertised. It has gorgeous views, especially from the main bedroom. It is clean and well stocked / organised. We thought a car was necessary to explore the island and it makes shopping etc easier, as it is a bit of a walk along the road into town. Wayne was helpful in advising us before our arrival. We were a little unlucky with the weather, so could not snorkel etc from the house / dock ( sadly) , but it looked gorgeous!

Wonderful vacation in a beautiful spot
We spent an amazing week at Chez Cay! The house is located on the water with a dock and an outdoor shower that is completely private and views the Caribbean. Wayne is a responsive and helpful host who shared all necessary info with us well before our stay including not just house details but also points of interest, where to shop and where to dine. He also helped us figure out the best way to get to the island. We rented a car from his caretaker Edgar, who along with his grandson, met us at the airport and took us to the house and explained how to navigate the island. If you are looking for a quiet getaway in a remote area with the beautiful beaches, Eleuthra is it. If you want a house with privacy, on the water and centrally located, Chez Cay is the place. Thank you Wayne. We had a fabulous time and hope to return!

Our favorite snorkeling experience!
Our stay at Chez Cay was lovely! The view from the windows and the dock was incredible. We couldn’t believe how turquoise and clear the water was. One of my favorite memories was snorkeling off the dock with my father - we saw rays, bright starfish, and lots of fish! And rinsing off in the outdoor shower after a swim is heavenly. The kitchen is great for meal prep. We did a few dinners and breakfasts at the house, and it had exactly what we needed. We did have to get a bit creative with the sleeping arrangements since we were there with my parents (who would have some trouble going up and down to a sleeping loft) and an infant, so just keep that in mind. My parents took the master bedroom with the queen bed, and we used the loft. The sleeping arrangements would be best for one couple to take the master, and some older kids who would be excited to sleep in the loft. All in all, a great stay at a central location!

We loved this compact, Bahamian VRBO!
The two buildings with connecting decks are totally marvelous. The main space has a very functional kitchen with enough utensils to prepare nearly anything. Never used the air conditioning because we used the shades during the day and the ceiling fans whenever we were there. We felt completely safe. The outdoor shower is second best to the sound of Caribbean water lapping at the shore (tough to decide on favorite aspects). The owner is cordial and fastidious about details and following up. The Island Farm, south of Governor’s Harbour, has great fresh vegetables. Bacchus filled in with other fresh vegetables. Don’t miss Tippy’s or Club Med Beach. We highly recommend this VRBO!
