Beautifully Decorated 3-Bedroom House, A 5-Minute Walk From The Beach.
Cocoplum was designed to be true to the classic Bahamian style of architecture bordered with a large porch and topped with dormer windows to maximize shade and cross ventilation. Construction was completed in 2013 with Bamboo floors throughout. The house is elevated, which affords unmatched views of the island from its hilltop perch and captures the tropical breezes. However, if in the summer months the warm climate becomes too much, Cocoplum can also easily be cooled with the press of a button on the whisper quiet mini-split air-conditioners. The interior is decorated in soothing tones with minimal, but very comfortable furniture for an uncluttered and calm feel. The kitchen is a chef's dream with all modern appliances, lots of counter space, an island with seating for four and an open plan that flows into the oasis of the living room. The 12-foot deep porch is probably where you will spend most of your time lounging on the outdoor furniture, enjoying the breeze and watching the boats go by in the harbour below, or eating something hot off the grill conveniently located adjacent to the large dining table. The master bedroom and bathroom are downstairs and are truly luxurious. There is a queen size bed and lots of closet space, large windows seem to bring the outdoors in and elegant plantation shutters filter the rays of natural light streaming through as the setting sun paints this west facing room in its many hues. The master bathroom sports his and her sinks and the option of a lavish soak in the claw-footed tub, or a shower in the stall unit. Upstairs, there is another spacious, western facing bedroom with a queen size bed, a crib (as well as a pack and play if needed) and a large closet as well as a smaller bedroom with two single beds. The upstairs bathroom has an all-in-one shower and tub unit, toilet and a large sink. The full size washer and dryer are tucked conveniently under the stairs behind bi-fold doors. The carefully landscaped garden is growing in nicely with tropical planted flowers and palms and also boasts mature, native fruit trees which bear seasonally. There is a large space under the house in which to park your golf-cart, (if you rent one), in the shade and hang your swimwear and towels up to dry after an invigorating, post-beach rinse in the outdoor shower. Please enjoy the use of the two bicycles to go sight-seeing and get some exercise.

We had a great time. The house was clean and a great location. We will stay there again on our next stay. We enjoyed our time there. The people are always friendly and helpful. We Love this Island!
This is our second stay at CocoPlum and we just love it. The house, situated at the end of a quiet street, is very spacious, clean, updated and the porch is a dream. There's plenty of room to spread out as there's 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, all nicely appointed. It is centrally located with a very short walk to the beach and Food Fair on one side and just a block from the harbor on the other side. Our communication with Laura has always been great - we would like to meet her someday! Without hesitation, we would stay here again.
All the BEAUTY of the Island, all the comforts of home!
This was our first visit but it definitely won't be our last! Cocoplum is centrally located, beautifully maintained and decorated, while providing every amenity you need and is essentially home away from home! You can cook or grill a huge meal for friends and family because everything is there and at your fingertips; or relax on the beautiful covered porch and read a book. If catching a show or game is what you want, watch any program you wish on one of their smart tv's. It is also child friendly with baby bed, pack n play, bouncer and much more than we expected. We had not one issue and this will be our Spanish Wells destination for future visits. We loved the island, the adventures, the food and especially the people! You will not be disappointed in this wonderful home and all it offers.
We had a wonderful vacation. Great communication with Laura and Carolyn. We had an issue with the AC in the master and Carolyn went out of her way to make sure it was fixed the same day. Also, I appreciated her setting up transportation for us and taking us to the house to ensure we had everything we needed. The house was great and had everything we needed. The island and locals are amazing! We will be back!!
We had a great time in Spanish Wells. The beach was right down the street and absolutely beautiful. Had an incredible experience fishing for tuna! Our neighbor Mary in the beautiful pink house was so helpful and her pet goat Boat Goat made us smile everytime we saw her.
This was our first visit to Spanish Wells and Coco Plum was the perfect retreat for our 5 member family (3 kids ages 8 - 12). The house is wonderful and well stocked. With a rented golf cart, we had quick access to every part of the island and appreciated being able to load up beach chairs and towels to head to the beautiful northern beach. Internet was solid and we spent a lot of time on the spacious and private porch. Laura provided great information for arrival planning and Carolyn was very generous to meet us at the dock to show us the way to the house. She was also responsive to any questions we had during the week. Carolyn also makes a really great loaf of banana bread, but don't let her know I told you that.
Comfortable spacious home in residential neighbourhood
Cocoplum is a large and well-furnished home sitting on a lush palm and flower-filled property in a residential area close to the island’s main attractions.
Carolyn, the manager, met us at the dock and remained in contact in case we needed anything.
The charm of island life sometimes includes the sounds of roosters crowing, and dogs barking. This woke us up from 3-4 am daily. With windows closed and earplugs we still could hear the rooster next door. This was the only downside.
The covered porch is great for reading and relaxing after a day on the beach.
The kitchen is thoughtfully outfitted and bathrooms had plenty of towels.
This house was perfect for my husband/me, our daughter/husband and their son. There was plenty of bedroom and bathroom space for us all both upstairs and on the main floor. The kitchen was fully equipped for preparing our meals and we LOVED the large outdoor porch with lots of comfortable seating surrounded by lush foliage. The property is tucked away from busy streets and really is only a 5-minute walk to the beach. There are A/C and fans in every room providing maximum comfort. Any questions we had were answered and dealt with very quickly. We really enjoyed this property and plan to return!
Our stay was amazing! The caretakers went above to make sure we enjoyed our stay. They made the house extremely kid-friendly for our 2 young kids. It was well stocked with necessities. We loved that the house was tucked back with a garden-like feel, but you still get a view of some water. It's so close to the beach, 5 minute walk or 2-minute golf cart ride. Spanish Wells now holds a special little place in my heart, definitely will be dreaming of the crystal clear blue waters and beautiful beaches for a while. Highly recommend this beautiful cozy home!
We love Spanish Wells! This was our 3rd time to the island. The home was perfectly located near beach, food and morning coffee ;) We enjoyed our stay very much! I would highly recommend staying here.
My family had a wonderful 4 day stay at Cocoplum. We had some drama with Silver Airways and my husband's passport and needed to change our trip dates 1 week before - we were lucky the home was not rented then and Laura was very gracious to allow us to make the changes. Its perfectly located in Spanish Wells and a very comfortable home, exactly as pictured and described. We rented a car for 1 day to explore Eleuthera and did a boat trip with Uncle Rob's another...he lives right down the street!
We absolutely loved our month in Spanish Wells. Cocoplum is as advertised…and better. Perfect location. The most beautiful and thoughtful landscaping. Very comfortable. Cannot wait to return…and we will return!
Loved the house. Very comfortable and welcoming. Kitchen is well stocked with all cooking needs. Location being in town (not that you have to go far if out of town) was great. Very relaxing with all the chickens and roosters roaming freely and fruit trees in the yard.
My husband, daughter (23) and son (19) stayed at Cocoplum and it was the PERFECT vacation home! The owner was was helpful and quick to communicate and the caretakers on the island, Jerrod and Carolyn were amazing. Carolyn met us at the dock, took us to the home and showed us around the home. Jerrod kept us stocked with drinking water. We never needed them, because the house is so well stocked but I feel if we did need anything, they would be quick to respond. The house is beautiful and modern while still feeling like a classic island home. There were only four of us, but I feel like this house had plenty of room and would be comfortable with even more people. This home is close to everything, but still private with an amazing, tropical yard. We rented a golf cart but also used the 2 bikes that came with the house. They were so fun. Spanish Wells is an amazing island with beautiful beaches, friendly people and great restaurants. We can’t wait to come back and stay at Cocoplum! Thank you!
This place was a perfect relaxing getaway for our family. Owner and hosts are absolutely awesome, helpful and accommodating. They coordinated everything to help us get on the island and make our stay painless and enjoyable. We would definitely go back and stay there. Spanish Wells is gorgeous and everybody is friendly. We absolutely loved our time there. It was a great place to unwind and recharge. Would definitely recommend the house and the island!
We had a fantastic stay at Cocoplum. The house is lovely, well appointed and centrally located. Fantastic breezes from the large porch, which makes for a great reading spot. Very quiet as well, except for the occasional rooster :-) The House Manager was great and made check-in super easy.
The house was very nice...good central location and Carolyn and Jared were very attentive caretakers: Large pantry, LARGE porch, Large kitchen island (could use a few more bar stools), comfy beds, short walk to the beach straight down 17th Street, A/C worked GREAT when we needed it (but, it was so nice with the windows and doors opened). The island people are SO friendly and helped us find Stone crab when the store was closed on Sunday. Whoo Hoo . Two BRAND NEW bikes were delivered the day before we left. Brnad new dishwasher, brand new TV installed the day we arrived. One downfall was the little yapping dog next door....Other than that It was a great house. We enjoyed our TWO WEEKS stay.
Cocoplum will always have a special place in our hearts. The house and Spanish Wells were a perfect getaway from our cold winter home. Close to the grocery, beach and restaurants we couldn't have asked for a better spot. The neighbors are close but lush tropical foliage makes the home feel very private and special. We look forward to returning.

Very easy to rent. House spacious and comfortable. Had everything we needed but the kitchen needs some new knives. Beds and linens excellent. Caretaker very helpful and responsive. Would recommend to others.
The house was light and airy and tastefully decorated. We love Spanish Wells and would stay at this beautiful house again.

Wonderful house! Walk to jumping bridge! A must. Fast ferry to Harbour Isle. Fabulous porch.
Let Carolyn take care of you. She organized a taxi from ELH for us, a water taxi & picked up our golf cart. House is very charming. Warm breezes & fantastic Bahamian style. We’ll be back!

What makes this property unique
Cocoplum is a beautifully decorated house in a unique location at one of the highest points on the island. Not that traffic is a real problem in Spanish Wells, but Cocoplum is far enough away from the main roads so that you don't hear the many golf carts “riding” around at night, but it is still within walking distance of the supermarkets, bakery, the quaint harbour and the gorgeous beach. Cocoplum is a beautiful retreat and a perfect home base from which to experience the best of the Bahamas.
