Secluded paradise
If you love a secluded paradise this place is for you! It was everything we dreamed of and exceeded our expectations. It is super private which is amazing. The beach is breathtakingly beautiful as well as the view from the house! The house was clean and up to date! We loved all the quality well-built furniture. The cabana by the beach was so perfect to hang out in for some shade on hot days. Our 10 days spent here for our 10th anniversary was one of the best vacations we ever had. We will always have fond memories and hope to come back again!!!

Beautiful Property
Wish House looked exactly like the photographs. The couch and beds were comfortable. The kitchen had all the necessary appliances. The shower water got pleasingly hot. The grounds the house sits on were gorgeous and very well maintained. You have a lovely view of the ocean from the expansive windows on the back of the house. Double Bay is one of our favorite beaches on Eleuthera, so we loved the location. Being on a well with potable water and having the back up generator were really nice perks that you do not find at many of the rentals. This was our 8th trip to Eleuthera, and we will definitely stay at Wish House for our next visit.

Could not ask for nicer
If you have ever wished that online photos were a true representation of a property, this place is for you. The pictures are up to date, with no fancy tricks to make the property look like something it’s not. We booked in for a week in Feb. and it was everything we were looking for. The house was freshly renovated, and had everything we needed (except for a tea kettle, which was provided the next day). The spectacular beach is right out of a travel magazine. Miles of soft pink sand in either direction. The beautiful landscaping allowed for a great deal of privacy from neighboring properties. Greg was very responsive to our email questions, and requests. Overall I would 100% book again.The Wish house sits on one of the most beautiful and isolated beaches I have ever been on. If you like sunrises, the beach deck is a perfect location to have a coffee and watch the sun on the horizon. The beach is soft, slightly pink sand with the best waves. The highlight of the week was the Friday Night fish fry in Governor’s Harbour, get there early.

A fantastic destination
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 probably the best beach house that we have ever booked. And it was located on a gorgeous beach.The house was exactly as shown, well-equipped and carefully maintained. The property was spotless and nicely landscaped. The owner was communicative and attentive. Eleuthera is a wonderful destination, and the house was located close to the commercial hub of Governor's Harbour. Varied places to eat and drink, decent shopping. The locals are so welcoming!The recommended snorkeling destinations on Eleuthera are a distance from the house (it's a very long and narrow island), and there are only a couple of nature preserves to visit nearby. But the wonderful time spent on the beach and in the water more than make up for that.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Marvelous time at Wish House! Wish House was perfect for us. The rooms are large and the kitchen had everything we needed. The house was clean and prepared for arrival. Mack and Kayla the local property manager and caretaker were quite helpful and attentive. We were grateful for the Starlink WiFi, as we both had to work, and the backup generator was excellent! The grounds are beautiful and we spent almost every evening under the beach cabana. Easy walk on the path to the beach and a great sandy entrance into the water. We highly recommend this house and we will definitely be back! We love Double Bay Beach!

Lovely spot, pristine beach
This property is perfect for a private get-a-way. Located on Double Bay, convenient to grocery and produce, and the most beautiful beach. The sand is so soft! Private location, and we even had the sweetest kitty visit daily, making the trip complete.
