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 is a beautiful place on a spectacular beach. We stayed here for the second time last week. The beach is hands down perfect. The house is well set up with everything you need. It was a refreshing change to have salt and pepper, olive oil, nice knives, good pots and pans, nice dishes, and even nice insulated yeti mugs for coffee and drinks. The deck is amazing and there are towels and sarongs as well as coolers and beach chairs and umbrellas. We will be back.

What a fabulous place on South French Leave Beach

Michelle was our caretaker and she was just perfect. All of our stay was quite wonderful. I hate to even admit it - but if you haven’t been to a pink sand beach like French Leave - well you are missing out. Dogtrot Villa was very clean and well maintained. Grocery stores close by and don’t miss going to The Buccaneer Restaurant

Magnificent House

Well, not sure where to start, but I'll try. This house is amazing as well equipped as you will ever find a beach house, they thought of everything. It was so great I'm afraid any future rentals will pale in comparison to Dogtrot. The beach is spectacular, very few people on the beach all week, maybe a few here and there. If you rent this house, be sure to go to the house first and check it out as it will help minimize your grocery purchase. Centrally located in Governors Harbor and close to everything. When we return to Eleuthera, we will not look anywhere else, we can't we were so spoiled there. The management team of Michele and her daughter Yasmine were outstanding so responsive and will help with anything you need, a quick text or call and that's it. Don't hesitate to rent this house, you won't be disappointed, I guarantee.

Fantastic rental on Eleuthera

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 is a great rental home and location in central Eleuthra . This is the second time we have rented this home after enjoying it so much the first time. The location is close to all restaurants. The home is new and well cared for by the owners and managers. The management is just top-notch with anything you need. And of course, the beach is a top five pink sand beach in the world that you have practically all to yourself. It is just incredible. We will return again for certain.

It's the perfect location, size, has well-appointed kitchen, and the most comfortable beds I've ever slept in. Having the most beautiful beach at your doorstep tops it all off.

Great location and home

We have rented many properties on banks road and Governors Harbor. The French Leave villa is one of our favorites. Home is modern, clean and very comfortable. All appliances are functional and modern. Bedding and pillows are excellent. The location is superb with a great back porch looking out on the beach. French leave beach is outstanding. Stingrays frequent the beach here as do turtles. Swimming is excellent as well. House contact was very responsive to any needs or questions.

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: Absolutely delightful 2 bedroom villa on one of THE most beautiful beaches. Ideal location - close to Governor's Harbour Settlement. House is comfortable & thoroughly equipped for your stay - great towels, linens, pillows, kitchen ware, beach chairs & umbrella. Sunrises & sunsets are utterly dreamy from this front porch. What we liked is that is beech style without being "beach-themed," if you get what I mean.

Dogtrot Review

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 stay at Dogtrot was great. The house is in wonderful condition and a great location. The beach access is perfect. The only criticism of our stay was the attach by no seeums every evening. Not sure what can be done or if those bugs are always there or just happened to be there for our stay! Thanks to Michele and Sidera for helping with things. They were great.

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 first trip to Eleuthera and the Bahamas and we couldn't have been happier with Dogtrot Villa. The villa was beautiful just as shown in pictures, the beach is just steps away and it's centrally located making it great for exploring each end of the island and everything in between. Pam was so helpful in booking the reservation and Michele was great once we got there, answered all questions and attended to our needs. I would highly recommend this property and we most certainly will rent it again if back on Eleuthera.

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: The villa is perfectly located on the French Leave Beach which is definitely one of the top beaches on the island. The villa is perfect for two couples the front veranda is awesome for early morning coffee.....the island unfortunately experiences frequent power outages but Michelle (property manager) was very accommodating to ensure the generator was operating. The Sunset Inn is great for sunset dinners and the food is reasonably priced and good. The Buccaneer restaurant is another must place to dine, food is very good. Everyone is very friendly and accommodating during our trip .....Eleuthera is a secret amongst vacation getaways!

Dogtrot

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The AC unit in the room to the right as you walk in was not workingThere were 5-6 dead bugs throughout the home when we arrivedSome notable spots on the walls and doors that could easily be cleanedThe 4 foldable beach chairs need to be replaced because the straps are broken and the hinges are extremely rustyThe back door handle does not work so if you close the back door while on the porch you have to walk around the house to get back in

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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: Dogtrot is a beautiful villa in a great location on beautiful French Leave beach. It is very close to Governors Harbor for supplies and dining.There are also several restaurants and bars within a few miles.The villa has a great layout. A very nice kitchen with good supplies, comfortable living and dining space and two private suites with full bathrooms. The beds are very comfortable. It’s nicely furnished throughout.The home is clean and in good shape, but it is not new. There are a few things that need a little TLC. The automatic generator is a great feature given the frequent power outages on the island. But it did not always turn on. Barbecue grill is not great. Gutter and downspout were disconnected from the house. Just a few things that did not match the caliber of the nice property. Michelle the property manager was very responsive and a great person to deal with. Problems with the generator were handled quickly. We loved our stay and hopefully will return in the near future.

Absolutely perfect

This is our second trip to the beautiful secluded island of Eleuthera and this is our favorite place to stay. We loved staying directly on the beach. This Villa is even prettier than the pictures. Modern, clean, and situated on the most amazing beach on the island. The vegetation and plants have grown in perfectly and there is a sandy path leading right to the beach. Peaceful wide open pristine beach with clear blue water and light pink soft sand - it is truly a dream. The Villa is equipped with everything from beach chairs, cooler, umbrella, and lots of towels. The dual master king bedrooms and en-suite bathrooms were perfect for our family of 4. Kitchen has all you need for when we had breakfast or dined in. Melissa answers all your questions promptly and quickly. The Villa is close to fabulous places to eat such as Bacchus, Tippy’s and the Buccaneer. Any issues or recommendations you need - Melissa so knowledgeable and responsive. We will definitely be back to Eleuthera and back at this Villa! Thank you for the incredible memories.

Great House & Water!

The house was great and so well appointed. The beds were nice and firm. The linens and towels very nice. Loved the hand towels… actually googled where to purchase. One bedroom door didn’t close quite right but we found an easy solution. The water was great. We were there the last week of October and loved playing in the waves. They were fun without being too much or wearing you out. Our only reco would be to add option to have beaches cleaned of seaweed when it’s excessive… at least right in front of the property. Most days were fine, but our last two days there was really nowhere to put a chair that wasn’t covered with clumped up seaweed and some unsanitary trash it brought in with it. I would have even paid someone had I known who to call! Overall, we’re likely to return. Reco: rent a 4WD. The roads aren’t great and some beach access in other parts of island are challenging in a little car.

Our vacation at French Leave Villa was perfect.

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: It was our first trip to Eluethera and we were very pleased. We live in a couple of tourist hot spots so I found the perfect place for beauty and peace. Sunrise was amazing, water warm and clear, the perfect beach for walking and the accommodation was so comfortable and filled with amenities, whether in the kitchen, the beds, books, TV, generator, and all the beach gear. Very thoughtful hosts trying to provide for your comfort and relaxation. Pam was our host with Eluethera vacations and responded quickly to all questions and provided you with all the information you could need about the island. Their island host, Michelle, was lovely and very helpful and responsive. We talked with a few people that had stayed other places but came here because of the generator and internet service. They had poor experiences elsewhere. We had no power outage while we were there but neighbors said ours came on when theirs did not during an earlier outage. For us, I could not have picked a better place to stay and it is great to have Eluethera vacations as a host. Thank you!
