This is a beautiful home in an absolutely stunning location. We loved listening to the waves pound the reef at night and the wind in the palms. Both the main house and the cottage were spotless and are beautifully decorated in a clean, fresh and timeless style with ultra-comfy couches, gorgeous big wooden doors that open to the breezes and a lovely little pool. The kitchen was terrific and the layout great for our family of 12. We loved the cards and puzzles that came with the house, too. The only suggestion for improvement is that some of the linens could be updated (a few had stains and tears or didn't quite fit the beds) and WiFi was a bit spotty but the TVs were great. Christine, the housekeeper, is an absolute gem. She made check in and check out super easy and we had her cook an amazing local meal for our first night --one of the best values and meals of the week. We hope to be back! Thank you to all who helped make this a memorable trip.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I am about to be “that person” who says they never write bad reviews but in this case it’s true. I am typically a handle any issues outside of leaving reviews kind of person but I wish I would have been warned of these things before we spent as much money as we did to go to Eleuthera and specifically the Alfred House. Pros: the house is beautiful, the beach in front of the house to the right has amazing snorkeling. We saw sea turtles, a barracuda, and so many beautiful fish. This side of the island the water is a bit rougher than the other side but we still found it amazing. It’s also very private. We practically had the beach to ourselves for several of the days. Matthew who you book through is incredible and so helpful. The kitchen has everything you need for a large group. Cons: the road to get to the house is VERY rough. It has quite a few pot holes, lots of tree roots and the brush on the side was overgrown and scratched the sides of our rental cars. Thank goodness the person we used for our rental cars warned us of how bad it was and didn’t give us nice vehicles because of it. Christine, the house manager, was a bit hit or miss. We had a little issue the first night we were there of her getting upset when we couldn’t keep up with her driving to the house (we had 3 cars following her and we landed after dark so it was a bit tricky). We also had a hard time getting ahold of her once we were there to get questions answered and sorted. The grocery stores in Governors Harbour have very limited supply of fresh produce and meats, just a warning. The wood floors of the house are very noisy but most of us had kids and slept with a sound machine so that made it better when some people were walking around upstairs. The pool is also really nice but it’s very cold. Of course, we wish it was heated but not a huge deal. Overall, we felt like the house sadly wasn’t worth the price and effort

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The island was not so beautifull as expected. Very expensive, poor supermarkets. But the beaches, marvelous. The house rented, the place were the house was lactaed, for sure, the best. Couldn ́t be better. We enjoyed snorkeling, scuba diving, went to different islands and beaches, running from the house to different trails. Our stay at Alfred ́s House was perfect.
