Sky Beach Club

After a flight delay, we decided to eat the cost of this fairly expensive resort so the kids could swim and decompress after a long day. It took us nearly 2 hours to check in given that the front desk attendant gave us the wrong key three different times (keys that were activated to open other rooms). When we finally got into our room (which was supposed to be a double), they told us we couldn't have the rooms we'd booked, and they were going to block off one (which would not have been enough beds for our family of 6). Also, the couch bed didn't have sheets. I went back to the front desk to request them and was given a large bag of sheets, blankets and pillows to carry across the property to our room. By the time we got it all worked out, the kids were crying, because we couldn't take them to swim and were "the worst parents ever." The next morning, we asked for a late checkout given all of the confusion and our inability to use the resort amenities (e.g., two beautiful pools), but they declined. Not because they were full either. The place is under construction, and there were barely any other guests. It's a shame, because the property itself is lovely and could be a real gem once their construction is complete and they get some basic customer service issues resolved.

Went with family of 6 between Xmas and New Years and stayed at a villa The house was cold and uninviting Not comfortable at all! Shower lukewarm. Couldn't wait to get out of there. Luckily booked a new place because we didn't want to spend another night there. Road and driveway horrible. Pool area pictures look nothing like what you're seeing in these photos. Would NOT recommend

We loved our stay at Sky beach club bungalow 1. Starting with the booking process, and communication. It was super simple. We had great communication with Pam and Eleuthera vacation rentals. The bungalow is large. It had a small refrigerator that held all our refreshments (kalik’s and tequila), and some snacks that needed to be refrigerated. It also had a small coffee maker, but you have to bring your own coffee. There was a TV in the room that never got turned on. Bungalow one has a great patio that overlooks the pool at Pascal’s and the ocean. We were fortunate to have a great breeze the whole week, and did not have to worry about any bugs. The pool on property is available anytime you want. Even after Pascal’s closes you can use the pool. The walk to the beach is maybe 45 seconds, and an easy trail down there. One of the best Atlantic beaches in island. There is no room service, or anyone on property for the resort. However, we did not need that. There were a couple questions we had that I texted the property manager, Mekell, and he responded instantly. We went to Pascal’s for dinner a few nights and hung out at the bar with Sammy and juju every night. They really make you feel at home and makes your stay at Sky Beach Club even more special. As for the road down, yes, it is bumpy, but we had a low clearance vehicle that had no problem with it, just take your time. If you are going to explore any of the beaches on the island, this road is a lot like the ones you will be riding on. We would definitely stay at Sky Beach Club again. If we were going to stay in a bungalow, I would definitely choose bungalow one because it has the best view, however bungalow two and three also have good views. If you were looking for a five star, bougie resort, I don’t know if you’ll find that anywhere on the island. Come to Eleuthera to experience the culture and true island life. And location of Sky Beach Club is perfect, close to Governors Harbor, and in the middle of the island, easy to head north or south.

If you're looking for a full service resort or a social scene, Sky Beach Club is not the place to go. If you want peace & quiet in a relatively affordable (for Eleuthera) beachfront location then maybe it is. The sandy beach is long, great for walking and swimming, if the wind off the Atlantic is not too strong. However, there's a lot of garbage above the high tide line, washed ashore from ships dumping at sea and also no shade or place to sit. The beach pavilion shown in photos has been damaged and closed ; and though management said there would be chaises on the beach, none showed up during my 5-night stay. The hot tub shown in pictures is also closed. The pool is nice, but was quite cold during my stay, maybe because of a lot of rain prior to my visit. It also has a rough, toe-scraping bottom. On the plus side there were hardly any people using the pool or the beach during my stay. Sky Beach Club basically consists of several villas up on the hill and three 2-person bungalows next to the pool, bar and restaurant just a flight of steps above the beach. Only Bungalow #1 has a real view of the ocean and pool. The restaurant is not elegant but the food was very good. It does not open until noon and is closed on Mondays. Set up for doing breakfast in the bungalows is fine—microwave, toaster, frig, coffee maker, coffee and dishes—and eating a quiet breakfast on my terrace looking out at the ocean was nice. Besides an ample terrace, the bungalow was spacious, modern and had a huge bathroom, including a shower large enough for 2+ and a comfortable soaking tub with air jets. The main drawback of the place was no staff or management on site. This meant that (for American phone services) everything from check-in to any questions or issues was an international phone call to the management—and cell service was usually one bar. My issues were not major, just annoying to have to chase down, including lights burned out in bedroom (fixed), TV not working (not fixed), no cushions for terrace furniture (out being repaired), running out of coffee packets (took two days and 4 calls to get resupply, which was a jar of instant). Also take heed that the road into the club is one of the worst I've ever driven, all rocks and deep ruts up over a hill and then down again—my rental car made it, but very slow and careful.

Absolutely loved Sky Beach Club! We went for a week at New Years and it was magical. The resort is very small so you are never around a crowd. The water at the beach was as clear as a pool and there were never others around. It was very secluded and private. The restaurant food was really good and Sammy the bartender was amazing. All staff very friendly and helpful. We rented a home and it had everything we needed and was beautiful! The road around the resort is very rocky and not paved smoothly but that was not an issue. We are already planning to return as soon as we can! The only negative would be that I would’ve liked having chairs on the beach… but we made it work with just sitting on towels. Would highly recommend this quiet, beautiful little piece of paradise at Sky Beach Club. Cannot wait to go back!
