Beautiful small resort. The docks are great till the wind blows from the West. Totally exposed at that point. The staff were friendly and accommodating. Would definitely go back as long as West winds are not predicted.

The dock can only handle three boats. We are a 65’ Fleming and had reserved the north side of the dock as the only option for us without being tied on the end broadside to the harbor. When we got there, the spot was taken so our only option was broadside on the end. Wind was light for the first night so no big deal. Wind kicked up night two and it was tough! Also….not enough power to plug in more than a single 50 when two boats are there. A boat came in after us that also had a Dockwa reservation but was turned away. Otherwise….the resort is amazing!

Marina Response:
Dear Alan Thank you for your open and honest feedback from your recent vacation with us. I have noted your comments regarding the Electric hook up and will be absolutely sure to communicate this with our engineering team to explore the idea of having additional set up in place. Overall, it sounds like you've had an enjoyable stay. Safe sailing!

Dock was unacceptable high for our boat and rough and noisy in wind from any direction but east. We did not stay

Marina Response:
Dear Robert We regret that your experience was less than satisfactory and that the dock was too high to accommodate your stay. I trust that you are sailing safely!

Great location, very protected. A top rate resort with a heated pool with pool side service and great restaurant . A lot of great sea life at the dock. Dock is high but manageable for our cat, could get tricky with lower deck height. Will stay again.

Staff is amazing highest level of service. The marine, is really a large dock. Does work for an overnight enjoy the resort the town is beautiful. Lotta great places to eat grocery store doesn’t offer much but it does have mostly essentials. The dark space does have power. You will need a long cord to tie in approximately 75 feet if you’re on the west end or the north end of the dock The east end of the dock is the optimal spot if available, expect the tides to roll into the shore and come back all night long no matter what the wind speeds are the boat will be bouncing.

This is not our first time, nor our last. We stayed at French Leave this time for a family reunion of over 35 persons. The entire resort was ours to use privately. The entire staff has always been very helpful and courteous. They tended to our basic needs and a few special requests without hesitation. Rupesh runs a tight ship and one I can appreciate. The slip supports our 38M yacht and vessels up to 50M as well. 208V-3 phase, 480V-3 phase power and water available, however, the water in the harbor is very clean and our water makers supplied water as needed. The location is central to Eleuthera, therefore access to the north (Harbour Island) and south (Cape Eleuthera) areas are easily manageable. On site restaurant named 1648 has great food and a spectacular view...sunset over water without obstructions.

The Resort is great. People all very friendly. This is not a dock for boats under 70 ft. Big swells when South southwest and north northwest winds of any speed. Very difficult to get on dock and actually a little dangerous. Staff is wonderful and resort food and service excellent. Would not recommend overnight stays at this dock. They have all powers and water.

Marina Response:
Good morning Jorge. M Thank you for sharing your honest experience with us from your recent stay. The dock structure is a bit high and can be difficult at very low tide for the smaller vessels. I will be certain to share your feedback with our engineers and the entire French Leave Team. K. Cephas

Service is very good not want to be here in the west, wind and food left a little to be desired. All in all a nice stop for a night.

Nice place, food is good. docks are very odd if the left side is full, power needed long extension cord. We were promised a golf cart, never happened. Great in northeast winds. It was blowing mid 20’s and we had no wind at the dock. We will come back. People were very nice.

Great resort with fantastic staff. Dock is a little odd in terms of tying up and make-do in terms of water and power (they run long extensions down the dock) — overall not in great shape. We were on the very end parallel to shore. Deploy fenders carefully and watch the angles of your lines. Even in a SSE wind it was a bit bouncy. But once situated all was fine and resort and staff are top notch.

Unbelievable in every way. Facilities, staff, service and food. All first class. At dinner our server Kelly was amazing, watching us and assuring we had our food courses perfectly timed. The conch Rangoon was delicious as well as the rest of our meal. At the front desk Karrell took such good care of us. The short golf cart ride to the beach revealed a pink sand world class beach with lounges and umbrellas ready for guests. The waterfront pool and hot tub at the resort is stunning. Beautiful and not to be missed.
