About this property

Condo w/Views, Beach, Htd Pool, Golf Cart, Kayaks, Gym, Pickleball Court!

"Cupids Key" Vistas (unit 2C at the Buttonwood Reserve Oceanfront Condominium Resort) is a top-floor unit, that includes a full-surround two-ocean view, facing west over the Caribbean for the sunset and east to the Atlantic for the sunrise. Enjoy stunning ocean views from every room through eight-foot glass sliders and six-foot bay windows. The expansive private decks also feature spectacular sea views in every direction.

Buttonwood Reserve is a 10 minute walk from three restaurants: Delish, Leorose Sunset Beach Bar and Grill, and Mel's Snack Shack.

Buttonwood Reserve has access to two beaches. On the Atlantic side is a world-class, 3-mile-long pink-sand beach, pristine without a single house. It is accessed via our private, golf-carts only driveway. All condominiums at Buttonwood come with access to a fleet of golf carts at no charge. On the Caribbean side of our property, almost in your front yard, is a second beach. This beach is small and rather rocky, so not so aesthetic, but the water is as calm as a lake and this shore is perfect for snorkeling, kayaking, paddle boarding, and fishing.

Our resort-style pool is just steps from your condominium. This beautiful landscaped pool is heated for comfortable swimming year round.

We just completed a new pickleball court!

Our mini-gym is equipped with a multifunction smith machine cage with precision linear bearings, an Olympic weight rack, dip station, and a cable routed pulley system. Guests also have access to dumbbells and a fitness/yoga mat. This is an open-air gym (fully roofed and with three walls).

The professionally decorated interior of this vacation rental is elegantly furnished, modern, warm and comfortable. The east end of the great room features a modern, open-plan, luxurious kitchen finished in stainless steel and black granite. The kitchen, dining area, and living room have magnificent ocean views in every direction, with water sparkling as far as the eye can see.

The master bedroom is features a large upholstered window seat with magnificent panoramic views of the Caribbean, a perfect spot to relax with a book or morning coffee, or watch the sunset over the sea. The master is furnished with a king bed and equipped with an en-suite full bath. The master has a private door leading to the deck over the Caribbean.

The guest bedroom also features a large window seat with a spectacular view, this one overlooking the Atlantic. The bedroom has a full en-suite bath (which can be accessed from the hall as well). It is furnished with twin beds that can be converted into a king.

There is also a queen size sofa bed in the living room.

Buttonwood Reserve comes with kayaks and a paddle board for use on the sea or in our pond. Bicycles are also provided. Our retired groundskeeper, Patrick, is an expert fisherman and will take you out fishing in his boat for a half day or full day (extra charges apply.) Grill your catch fresh on our outdoor gas grill near the pool. Other amenities include AC throughout, ceiling fans, and superfast Starlink WIFI.

Just a mile from Buttonwood Reserve is the village of James Cistern, which has three grocery stores, a town dock where the fisherman bring their catch every day, a produce stand, and Kel D's sports bar. James Cistern is also the home of Stubb's famous barbecue, now called Tamarind Tree Grill, every Friday and Saturday, which is not to be missed. Three restaurants are within walking distance!

Buttonwood Reserve is an easy 15-minute drive from Governor's Harbour, the main town on the island. Governor's Harbour has a charming collection of 19th century homes and churches overlooking its historic harbor.

Other restaurants in the area include Pascal's at boutique resort Sky Beach Club, Tippy's (international and fusion), 1648 Bar & Grille at French Leave (fine dining for lunch and dinner), The Buccaneer, The Rainbow Inn (steaks and Monday night brick oven pizza night), the Front Porch, Hot Buns bakery and sandwich shop, and Da Perk Café (café and sandwich shop).

Insane views! Beautiful apartment, fantastic amenities

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. 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 had such a great stay at buttonwood. The location was perfect for us being north of governors harbor. We loved all of the amenities including the pool, chairs and umbrellas for the beach, the golf carts, and our favorite part: THE COMPLETELY PRIVATE BEACH for miles and miles. I used a drone to check it out, there is miles and miles of pink sand beach all to yourself. like no one else. The apartment was perfect for us with views of both oceans and the kitchen had everything we needed. It was also a nice touch for them to give laundry and dishwasher detergent and things like that. The AC was AMAZING. Brett took care of us the whole time and gave us tips on where we could get fresh fish or which beach to go to. There were some ants while we were there but we didn't bother brett about it because that's part of being on the island. The Wifi was great and the Tv was decent. We had such a nice trip and we plan on coming back to buttonwood and maybe with a big crowd since they have so many condos. It's really perfect for big families! It was perfect for us!

We would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful experience at Buttonwood

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: Great experience at Buttonwood. Pictures we viewed when making our decision were accurate. Wonderful private beach that is part of miles and miles of remote beaches. Easy to grab one of buttonwood’s golf cart, for free, to take to the private/remote beach. Real close to two bar/restaurants that certain days of week have music. One of thee places, Delich, has unbelievable staff and food right on the beach!! Very nice kitchen we used to cook once in a while. Beautiful views from patio to watch sunset with a drink. The staff a buttonwood is most friendly and responsive. We didn’t use the pool, but a number of other guests did and they seemed to really enjoy its cleanliness and comfortable temperature.

Some good, some not good

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was somewhat unhappy 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: We rented the entire complex. It was a great place for a family reunion. The view was magnificent and it was really fantastic to be able to go to the roaring Atlantic and the calm Caribbean. The golf carts were a great help and there were plenty of kayaks and paddle boards available. There are several things though that were inconvenient. The airport and the only food market of any size is a 40 minute drive. If the supply boat hasn't been in recently it is out of stock of some things. The price of food and drink is three times what you would pay in the US. There are a few small restaurants nearby that have very limited menus and are very expensive. We went to a great restaurant in Governor's Harbor called The Buccaneer Club.(20 minute drive). It was expensive but we didn't mind paying for it because the menu was diverse and the food was good. Unless there's a stiff breeze the no-see-ums are going to get you at or after dusk. Bring date and baby oil and lather up if you're going to walk outside from one condo to the other.

Buttonwood Reserve

Overall, the property is nice. The condo unit was as pictured. Location wise, the property is fairly central but you will have to drive to any dining or shopping locations. The short walk to the rocky beach is doable, but note all the kayaks have holes in the bottom (from being drug up/down the hill incline to get to the beach) and therefore do not stay afloat for long. The golf cart ride to the Atlantic is rough, but fun. What is not fun is the unreliable nature of the golf carts and supplied beach equipment. Our neighbors borrowed our golf cart after theirs broke down 10 minutes down the path. We tried 2 umbrella's and both were broken/inoperable (discovered only when we tried to open them at the beach). We were able to find 4 working chairs that sufficed. We lost power temporarily but most problematic was losing water for 2 days in our building/unit. Guests were using water from the pool to flush toilets and wash their hands/clean up, therefore we did not use the pool. While the issue was beyond the managements control, we felt that a partial refund for those days should have been offered for our lack of running water for 2 days. Eleuthera is a beautiful place and our family had a wonderful vacation. When we return, we'll look to stay elsewhere.
Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2022

Great stay!

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 were with a group and rented all of Buttonwood, including the Main House. It’s a beautiful property and it accommodated our large family fabulously. The golf carts were perfect (& needed!) for the trek to the beautiful private Atlantic beach. The kayaks and paddle board were a great addition. The condo seemed to have all the amenities you would need (although we didn’t cook all way.) Brett and Smitty were available if we needed anything and took care of us. Despite needing bug spray, we’d stay at Buttonwood again.

Amazing Family Reunion

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: Our family of 14 stayed at ButtonWood Reserve for 9 days and it was divine. We rented the main lodge for gathering and two additional condos. Matt and Tara were beyond helpful in getting us all the information we needed in preparation for our trip...helping with suggestions for excursions, chefs, photographers and more. The condos are nicely decorated, super clean, beds are comfy and the main lodge is an ideal space for gathering with breathtaking views off the large deck that overlooks the Caribbean. The kitchen in the main lodge is stocked with everything you could need for feeding a large group. We all loved having golf carts to access the Atlantic private beach and even when we didn't spend the day at that beach we still took rides down there in the mornings and early evenings. Having beach chairs, toys, kayaks, lifejackets available was so helpful. We loved having the paddleboard and kayaks to use on the Caribbean side. They set up a water trampoline while we were there and the kids went crazy for that! Mark at Buttonwood was incredibly attentive and available anytime we needed him. We had a family in our party test positive for COVID right before we were leaving so they couldn't join us. Matt was able to rent one of our additional condos at the very last hour which was wonderful to refund some of their money. We hired Brenda and Patrick Demerrit to cook for us one night and it was such a treat! Highly recommend! Food was delicious and we got lots of insider tips on what to do and see while we were out there. We went on a customized day excursion with Captain Sheldon and it was a highlight of our trip!All the reviews about the noseeums on this island are legit. We learned the hard way after spending a late afternoon on the beach. Pack light pants to put on before sunset and early mornings. Kids are dying to go back and so are we! I highly recommend Buttonwood Reserve!

Great view, but needs a refresh

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: This was the second unit we stayed in at Buttonwwod, which is a great property centrally located on the island. This upper unit does provide views of both the Atlantic for sunrise and Caribbean for sunset—beautiful! However, the unit has obvious wear and tear that should be addressed. The main flooring has been changed from ceramic tile to LVP, which is peeling up in numerous places, the kitchen cabinet is missing shelves, and the kitchen is missing basics like a can opener. The washing machine was in the process of being repaired. but the very helpful manager allowed us to use another. We did enjoy use of the kayaks, SUP, and golf cart, as well as the on-site grill and pool. We ate at all 3 restaurants just a few minutes away in James Cistern. We also traveled the island tip to tip by car and by renting a boat—the beach chairs and cooler provided with the unit came in handy! We mostly had the beaches to ourselves, and spent much time on the Caribbean side snorkeling. Rainbow Bay and Receivers were our favorite beaches.

Had wonderful Time

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 very much enjoyed at stay Buttonwood. It is very convenient to James Cistern's grocery store (appx. 2 min down the road) & Leo rose (a restaurant). It's appx 20 min into GH, shops, and restaurants, 15 min from Rainbow rest, and overall, about in the middle of everything. I would suggest you fly into GH instead of N. Eleuthera, as, it is a 45 min. drive to Buttonwood.Matt Simon was most helpful and gracious to take us to "The Cliff's, The ocean hole, and Hatchett Bay Cave. The kids had a blast there and Matt was very informative guiding us around.The place was comfortable, roomy, and we had plenty of space to do our thing. There was also additional things left by other guests for use such as bug and sun spray.

Beautiful New 2 br Condo

We rented a 2 bedroom condo called Buttonwood for 3 nights. This was a terrific property. We were on the second floor and the views were breathless. The condo itself was all you could want, 2 bedrooms, 2 full baths, living and dining area plus 2 porches. The air conditioning worked great, the internet was speedy, and they had dish TV. We brought our own food for breakfast and lunch and went out to dinner every night. I thought the price was excellent. We spent most of out time at the pool or on the porch reading. It is a very relaxed setting so if you want action, this isn't for you. This is a perfect place to chill out. As for food, bring as much as you can since things are very expensive on the island. One of our neighbors said she paid $44 for coffee so be prepared.

Pretty Condo

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The condo is very nice and was clean. We loved having access to both oceans. We knew that Eleuthera was rural but we weren't quite prepared for how rural it is. After a long day of travel, we arrived to the island and got our terrible rental car. (The inside of the of the door in the backseat fell off onto my daughter). The grocery store near the Northern Eleuthera airport was shady to say the least. We were able to get water but not much else. We couldn't find any coffee with caffeine in it! Yikes! Then, we tried to stop for a bite to eat but nothing was open and we didn't know how to find anything since we didn't have cellular service outside of wifi. We were all very grumpy and questioning our decision to come to the Bahamas. We finally landed at Leo Rose and were happy to get a drink and a snack. Sonya met us at the condo for a brief moment. She was clearly busy and didn't want to stick around which was fine because like I said, we were a little grumpy. The condo was nice and it was clean. We ended up having a good time except for the noseeums that devoured us even though we tried every kind of bug repellant possible. The beach on the Atlantic side had so much garbage on the shore. It was really sad to see the pollution. The island should really consider some sort of recycling program to help clean up the litter and maybe provide some income to these people living in poverty. There's a lot of beauty on the island and overall, we are glad we went but I don't know that we would return. Matt was awesome through this whole process and all the information provided was appreciated and used. I loved the app also. I think Sonya is overworked!
