About this villa rental

Buttonwood Reserve 1D

"Casa Dos Vistas" (unit 1D 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 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.

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.

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

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.

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).

Eleuthera is most famous for its 100 miles of spectacular, deserted beaches. The island, home to just 8000 residents, is safe and friendly. The snorkeling, diving, and fishing on the island are world class.

Loved staying at Buttonwood Reserve! It was the best accommodation for our large family and kids. Nicely decorated and we loved having the clubhouse available to get together for our meals and just hang out. Had a very well stocked kitchen as well. We would definitely come back!

Our group rented 2 properties at Buttonwood Reserve in early December and had a wonderful time! The units were well appointed and immaculate and the views were fantastic. The location was good especially if flying into North Eleuthera airport and Governors Harbor is lovely.

lovely family vacation

The property was very nice. We enjoyed using the pool and the BBQs in addition to our flat. The access to both the Caribbean and The Atlantic was a great plus. I often used the SUPs in the morning when the sea was calmer and thought they were a great plus. Later on we would take the golf carts to sit on the secluded, sandy, (but usually very wavy) Atlantic side.

Do bring insect repellent and rent a car to see the many other lovely aspects of Eleuthera.

Great condo, resort and location!
Great condo, resort and location!
We enjoyed our stay in the condo, it was spacious, clean, bright, lots of windows, a full-sized kitchen, excellent air conditioning, very comfortable beds, and friendly staff. The resort had a large pool (not heated as described), kayaks (excellent location for kayaking), and golf-cart access to a long beautiful beach on the Atlantic. Be forewarned that the beach may have excessive garbage at the high-tide line, your experience will be best at low tide. There are restaurants near by but they’re not as good as people say, all the menus are similar, mostly burgers, chicken fingers, cracked conch, and conch fritters (they have the same food supplier). Buy groceries in Governor’s Harbour (closed Sundays). The tourist center in GH has a great free map plus other info. It was a great vacation with only one significant negative: biting bugs! Bring bug spray, bug lotion, baby oil, and hydrocortisone and/or anti-itch spray. Also, the water comes and goes so we filled glasses and pots for reserve (to flush toilets, do dishes). We would stay again and highly recommend Buttonwood for it’s prime location, beauty, easy access to both coasts, and comfort.

We recently were able to visit paradise again and for those who don't know, that is in Eleuthera, Bahamas. We stayed at Buttonwood Reserve, in James Cistern. We love Buttonwood Reserve because it has everything! With access to both the Caribbean and the Atlantic you can choose easily where you might spend all day or split between both :) The golf carts are wonderful when visiting the Atlantic side. Paddle boards, kayaks, paddles, safety vests, beach chairs, towels and umbrellas-everything is so accessible and convenient. Brett, the property mgr, is a great guy who is always available to assist with a bright smile and attitude :) The pool is also a wonderful amenity too! The condo units have plenty of room, very functional. The beautiful views out of the windows and sliding doors are spectacular!
We visited so many different beach locations, from Queens Bath to Glass Window bridge, Governor's Harbour, etc. Snorkeling, shelling, beach walking, picture taking and just simple relaxing make for a perfect vibe. We can't wait to return to this blessed location. Don't miss out on paradise!
