Nestled on the secluded shores of Gregory Town, The Cove Eleuthera is where the gentle rhythm of the waves meets the curated flavors of the Bahamas.
With its lush 40-acre setting and panoramic ocean views, this boutique resort invites travelers to unwind in barefoot luxury while indulging in culinary creations crafted with care. Whether you’re toasting the sunset with a handcrafted cocktail or enjoying sushi by the sea, every dining moment here feels like a celebration. Add to that bespoke weddings, romantic escapes, and family reunions under the tropical sun, and The Cove is more than a destination, it’s an experience.
This was proven to me even more when I had the chance to experience the resort myself with my husband, Sebastian. We were blown away, and I am very excited to share all the opportunities that those who visit can enjoy at the resort.
Freedom Restaurant & Sushi Bar: Where Flavor Meets the Horizon
The Cove’s signature dining experience, Freedom Restaurant & Sushi Bar, offers more than just meals. It delivers a sensory journey. With floor-to-ceiling glass doors that invite the sea breeze, this oceanfront haven pairs relaxed elegance with island-inspired menus. Guests can expect sushi made with precision, fresh seafood dishes that reflect the island’s aquatic bounty, and inventive plates infused with Bahamian flair. The open-air design, sand-toned flooring, and minimalist decor allow the vibrant colors of nature to become part of the dining canvas. Guests can also join interactive sushi-making classes for a taste of culinary creativity in paradise, and can even set up a rum tasting experience to sip some delicious local Bahamian rum.
We spent a lot of time enjoying breakfast, local rum and cocktails, as well as dinner at these top-notch eateries. The experiences were enhanced by the restaurant’s fresh food and the sushi was impeccable, as well as the exceptional service by staff, which made us feel truly pampered throughout.
Gregory Town Grill: Island Comfort with a View Just steps from the sand, Gregory Town Grill invites guests to embrace casual island life with a menu rooted in tropical comfort. Whether dining beneath a shaded veranda or having lunch delivered to a beachfront lounge chair, visitors are treated to views as memorable as the cuisine. This relaxed yet elevated eatery serves dishes inspired by Eleuthera’s rich cultural heritage and natural abundance. Whether stopping in after kayaking or spending the day soaking up the sun, Gregory Town Grill is where beachside appetite meets Bahamian soul, and it’s the best spot to dine between water activities, since it’s easily accessible to the soft sand that leads to the ocean and fun under the sun.
The Point Bar: Sundown Magic in a Glass
Perched between two private-entry beaches, The Point Bar is The Cove’s hidden gem for those chasing golden hour magic. This cliffside bar offers sweeping ocean vistas, an inviting breeze, and handcrafted cocktails that highlight regional ingredients. Think tropical rum blends and zesty citrus infusions, and carefully selected beer, wine, sparkling wine and champagne, and spirits. There is something for everyone to enjoy at this unique and tropical spot.
It’s a favorite spot to toast the day, where sunset views meet island beats. Guests can unwind with a wine Spitzer, sample local beers, or participate in one of the resort’s exclusive rum tastings, an immersive way to sip the spirit of the islands and enjoy a gorgeous view as you sip your beverage of choice.
Room Service: The Cove’s Flavors, Delivered to Your Door
When privacy is part of the plan, The Cove’s in-room dining delivers a full menu of offerings from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily. Whether it’s a quiet breakfast on your villa’s terrace or a romantic dinner under the stars, room service ensures that the flavors of the island can be enjoyed at your own pace. It’s dining on your terms, with the same attention to detail and presentation found in the resort’s restaurants, and with the view and comfortable seating spaces at the resort’s villas, it just might be the perfect way to unwind after a long day at the beach or simply of exploring.
