Outstanding property

Aqua Villa is our favorite rental on Eleuthera. We've stayed here many times, and it remains our favorite. Everything here is in great shape. Location is superb for everything. We'll return again as we have many times prior.

Paradise!

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: This was our second time staying at Aqua Villa! It is perfect for our group of 6 friends. The additional cottage is great to give some space for our friends that like to sleep in. The view from the back deck is beautiful. I love waking up and having my morning coffee looking at the ocean. The beach is just a few steps below which makes it super convenient not to have to pack anything. Steve has lounge chairs, beach chairs and kayaks for use. The pool is perfect for a later swim or just using the grill and relaxing Tippy’s the best bar on the island is just a short walk if you’re hungry for lunch or want to have an afternoon cocktail. The only thing we wish is that we could rent Aqua Villa a few days longer. It is only an Sat-Sat rental and two weeks is too long for some of us. A ten day rental would be perfect. Overall, we absolutely love this house and can’t wait to return to Aqua Villa and Eluthera!

The pictures don't do it justice!

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: An absolutely beautiful home with a world class view, pristine beach perfectly complemented by a wonderful pool sheltered from the ocean winds. Steve, the owner, and Sonya, the property manager were both highly available and super responsive for any issues that arose. We rarely, ifever, travel to the same destination twice, much less stay in the same place, but we would ABSOLUTELY go back to Aqua Villa in a heartbeat.

Fabulous Cottage On the Beach!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Amazing cottage on a bluff overlooking a world class beach. Main house and coach house felt newly renovated & modern, but with a cottagey feel that we loved.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were very pleased with the location and the condition of the property and have re-booked for next year. We will request a few improvements for our net visit. 1) That the property be fogged to reduce the no-see-ums (This would apply to any property) and 2) that the very loud squeaks of the bed in the master bedroom be addressed. We are confidfent that these issues will be taken care of and look forward to our repeat visit.

Aqua Villa Cottage *Perfection*

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: Pam was great to work with! She sent lots of information about the island, restaurants, shopping, etc. She was quick to respond, and everything was as we had hoped. Aqua Villa is all the space you need. It's open and has a wall of stunning views of the ocean and beach. The house has been taken care of and has a back up generator, which is great since power goes off every now and then...this is all part of the adventure of Eleuthera though and we didn't mind at all:) Best vacation ever!

Also, Pam is responsive and we had a great experience using Eleuthera Vacation Rentals.

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: We came upon this house by chance. After we arrived at our original rental, we were told there was an issue and we could not occupy the house. The owner worked with the property management group and quickly found us this beautiful substitute. The home owner had just arrived at the house but graciously moved to another property he owned right down the road. The view is gorgeous and beach access is easy but does have some steps. The beach is beautiful and we may have crossed paths with 5 people the entire week. The cabana is a great asset to grab some shade. You can beach walk for miles if you choose to do so. The house is well equipped, comfortable, clean and in an excellent location in the middle of the island by Governors Harbour. The owner was very helpful with suggestions for restaurants and activities. We brought meat from the states to cook and did eat out at several restaurants. We never had a bad meal. Bought lobster in Tarpum Bay at the pier and cooked these at the house. Bring cash because the places that do take credit cards may also have issues with internet to process your payments. When you venture to the north part of the island, Mel's in James Cistern has really good plates of food. She cooks out of her house. The Bougainvillea resort just down the road from the house has very good food and pizza night on Thursdays. The Fishbone Bar and Grill on Savannah Sound also has good food and drinks and they have guided tours you can book to explore the Sound. Beautiful week with good friends, great accommodations, and a great island. We went to the island off season so many restaurants and shops were not open. Very quiet and relaxing with plenty to do and see.

Perfect Spot

The pictures online don't do this property justice and I couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. Great location on the beach, a great restaurant a walk away plus you're minutes away from 'downtown' Governors Harbor if you need to stock up or explore some other restaurants. If you're getting a rental car while you're there, the roads are mostly fine for any kind of car so that shouldn't be a worry either. Inside the house, amazing showers, great WiFi, comfy furniture all around and again, super clean with top notch appliances too. The property management team is great to work with too and are quick to respond to your emails should something urgent come up with your trip. Absolutely recommend this place so if you're reading this, just go ahead and book it.

A great place to spend a week

The house is very nice, clean and up to date. I was pleasantly surprised when every time I needed something in the kitchen after a little looking I found it. The deck on the back is awesome with a great view you never get bored with. Also, the realtor and property manager were excellent to work with.

We will definitely be going back.
