Summary: We spent 7 glorious days at this historic home in the heart of Governor's Harbour. The home was beautifully appointed and the layout was great for both group activities and alone time. We particularly liked the main house and guest house separation. Our host, Martha, was simply the most helpful (and charming) host we have ever worked with. Looking forward to our return to Folly.

Summary: Rating Details: The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house is conveniently located for easy walks to grocery, bakery, shopping, and Buccaneers. A short drive to the ocean gives you snorkeling, beach walking, Tippy’s for a tropical drink. The house is well- furnished; the kitchen is ready for cooking; the front porch a place for gathering for coffee in the morning and spectacular sunsets in the evening. The home is clean, well- equipped, and well-maintained.

Summary: Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our trip to Governors Harbor was an amazing experience! We took a group of 10 college girls to the island for a week of fun in the sun. Martha met us at the house soon after our arrival and was kind enough to stay for cocktail hour and tell us all the wonderful places we should visit while we were there. Anything we needed she had the answer immediately! The house was perfect for us! We gave the girls the main house and small house next-door and we took the guest house in the back to get a little peace and quiet from the chaos! The house was very comfortably appointed and had everything we needed . The island is beautiful and there are many natural places to visit to spend day trips exploring. The buccaneer was right next-door for dinner drinks and dancing to live music. Great trip we can’t wait to go back!
