  • what to bring:
    People ask us all the time…
    *BRING: Flashlights: Let there be light.
    The main pathways in the lodge are lit, but it’s a big space and lighting every pathway perfectly isn’t really a viable option.
    Flashlights can come in handy at the lodge, or for exploring the beaches late at night.
    Also, while the power rarely goes out in Eleuthera, a flashlight can be useful in the rare chance power is out on the island.
    Beach Towel: You know, for beaches.
    We provide towels for the shower , but we kindly ask that you leave our towels at the lodge.
    Bring a beach towel to explore Eleuthera.
    sneakers for hiking, water shoes (good for the rocky beaches and the Bat Caves) Bug spray and sunscreen are available on the island, but we recommend Reef safe sunscreens.
    Help save the Reefs!
    DON’T BRING: anything that will end up as trash on the island.
    Be a responsible traveler and understand that what you bring becomes someone’s responsibility to dispose of and that can be hard on an island.
    Don’t bring heavy luggage. We are located off a rocky path and heavy roller bags will have a hard time.
  • Will That Be Cash Or Credit?
    It is highly recommended that you take currency vs. credit/debit cards. Many locations, including gas stations, restaurant ,grocery may not accept debit/credit cards. ATM machines are only located at bank locations in Eleuthera and are limited. As stated by TheMoneyConverter.com, " It is divided into 100 cents. The Bahamian dollar is pegged to the U.S. dollar on a one-to-one basis which means that any business will accept either U.S. or Bahamian currency and many of the businesses that serve tourists have extra U.S. dollars on hand for the convenience of American tourists.
