More Information on Hibiscus House:
The estate was built by Sir Roland Symonette, the first prime minister of the Bahamas, in the 1930s. The resort hideaway includes the Manor House and six stone cottages tucked in 80 acres of lush tropical gardens joined with a secluded pink sand beach. While keeping its lovely French doors and windows, the old stone cottage has been recently redecorated. It has a fantastic wrap-around screened porch furnished in redone vintage rattan for dining, relaxing or just enjoying the great view. The floors are now beautiful, cool, glazed tiles. The furniture is updated with fabrics in bright, Caribbean colors. The master bedroom with a new queen-size bed opens to the airy porch and a view of the ocean. The second bedroom with two new twin beds is decorated in yellows and blues. There are two renovated bathrooms. The house includes a great living room with ten+ foot ceilings and a fireplace. There is also a fully equipped updated kitchen with refrigerator, stove, dishwasher, microwave, small appliances, dishes, utensils, and a washing machine. There is a large separate dining room.

Summary: I cannot say good enough things about Hibiscus House! The house was comfortable, extremely clean, and spacious. We had two couples staying in the house, and the second couple used the trundle bed feature to turn one of the twin beds into a king in the second bedroom. The photos don't do this place justice! It's even more beautiful than the photos make it seem. The ocean is down the hill from the house, so you can see it from the enormous screened in porch. The property is in a very quiet neighborhood, behind a coded gate, so it's very safe. The house was incredibly well-stocked with some things you wouldn't expect, left behind by other guests (sunblock, binoculars, sandtoys, towels, spices, and even some beer!), but you may need to contribute to the house stockpile with things like trash bags, toilet paper, and paper towels. If we come back, I'd plan to visit the house first before going to the store for some essentials - there's a shop about 10 minutes away in Governor's Harbor. Alexandra, the host, was extremely responsive via text and Lydia, the on-site host, was absolutely lovely. She stopped by on our first night to make sure we had everything we needed. I'm not sure when we'll make it back to Eleuthera, but if we do, we'll be staying here!

Summary: The spacious beach house is back from the beach by about two oother houses, but has a nice, if limited, ocean view. On the way to the beach is a really lovely swimming pool, open to the neighborahood. Then, crossing the beach access road and traversing the dunes is a stunning beach. They say it's pink sand ... well, if you squint. But the quality of the sand is superb, and the beach is 150 to 200 feet wide. You'd think the whole world would be there, but we had it mostl to ourselves. Best for folks who want to settle in, as island travel is quite challenging.

Summary: The Hibiscus house is in a great location- with easy access to the Atlantic Ocean, as well as the Caribbean. The pool is also very nice. We spent most of our time on the veranda, and the host was very responsive.

Summary: Very clean. Great central location. Beautiful porch. Quiet, relaxing neighborhood. Pool is large but there is no shade and no umbrellas. Lounge chairs are wood and very uncomfortable. If you go to pool, bring your own seating. Beach was a short walk. There was more glass and garbage than I have ever seen in 12 years of visiting this beautiful island. If you want to walk on beach you need tennis shoes. I would not want my kids going down or swimming in the water as it is clear glass bottles and garbage go in and out with the tide. If you know the island, then you know there are plenty more beaches to visit and swim at. This and the TV / Wi-Fi not working 5/7 days we’re the only drawbacks to the location. Since we don’t go to the island to watch TV, it was no big deal. People with kids might feel differently . Also, I am not suggesting that this property owner or manager are responsible for cleaning up the beach. I suspect a lot of it comes from the guests at the neighboring resort, young kids, etc.

Summary: This little cottage midway on the Atlantic side of Eleuthera just North of Governor’s Harbor is the perfect location to soak up sun and gentle breezes and from which to explore both the Atlantic and Caribbean beaches nearby. Enjoyed the modern conveniences and comfort of a charmingly decorated cottage, full of unique character with the sound of the ocean in the background.The screen porch was our favorite place to have our meals and relax with a good book. The host was very responsive to any questions we had. A truly memorable, relaxing stay. Great pool and lovely long stretch of beach almost to ourselves. Amazing!

Summary: 2nd time back at this wonderful rental. All I can say is that we and our 3 kids love this house so much. Nothing can beat the amazing wrap around screened in porch where we spend most of our nights hanging out, playing cards or charades!!!! The house itself has been spotless both times we have rented. It comes with lots of beach toys - noodles, and most importantly beach chairs and umbrellas (not all rentals have this much great stuff for guests to use during their stay!) The house itself has such great vibes. It’s bright and airy with very high ceilings in the great room where you will also probably spend many a night! Beds are all very comfortable. Appliances all in great working condition. Alex, the owner, is amazing and hyper responsive if you have any questions. The caretaker Lydia is an absolute sweetheart. We love Hibiscus and we love Eleuthera! The memories we have made at Hibiscus will be with all of us forever!!

Summary: The location of the property is great, 5 minute drive to Governor's Harbor. We enjoyed the pool and the beach areas. Every time we were at the pool we were the only people there. The beach is beautiful. We had 1 problem with internet service. We contacted Alexandra and were up and running in 10 minutes. Alexandra's communication was fantastic. We will be booking this property next year.

Summary: My husband, adult son, and my 8-year-old granddaughter just returned home from a wonderful vacation in Governor's Harbor. This beautiful home is located in a quiet, safe neighborhood. Just a short walk to the beach and a nearly private swimming pool, it was perfect for our family trip! Alexandra was very responsive to our questions and made some great recommendations. We highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing vacation in one of the most beautiful places in the world! The home was extremely clean, well appointed (loved the decor!), and close to restaurants and stores. Thank you, Alexandra, for being such a gracious host!

Summary: Photos are very accurate but looks better in person. Beautiful secluded beach 5 minute walk. Neighborhood pool never anyone in it. Pascals beach bar 5 minute walk. The bar tender, Semmy is my new best friend. 1648 French Leave restaurant is the best food you will find anywhere. Alex is simply the best communicator we have ever experienced on VRBO. Will we return......Hell yes!!!!!
