About this property
Sweet Merlot - A Family Rental with a Pool & walking distance to Twin beach
Hosted by the owner & an Airbnb Super Host, Sweet Merlot is a traditional island-colonial style home offering beautiful Atlantic Views, a peaceful street, and all the comforts and conveniences you would expect from a family home away from home. With only a brisk 5 minute walk from Sweet Merlot on a calm day you can find Twin Beach a beautiful and secluded beach within the cliff face on the Atlantic Ocean side of Rainbow Bay
The master-bedroom is spacious and offers an en-suite bathroom with a deep soaking tub, shower and two vanity sinks. The glass doors allow views of The Atlantic from the bed and just step outside to the deck to relax with a cup of coffee, tea or beverage of choice at any time. The kids room located on the lower floor offers twin beds and an en-suite bathroom with a tub allowing them to be close to the adults and close to the deck to go swimming in the pool. The open concept living room with satellite tv, dining room & kitchen offers so much for entertaining.
Upstairs we enter the fun room that provides separate seating to watch DVD's. Two guest bedrooms both with queen size beds and views of the ocean share a bathroom with a shower but leaving loads of space to just hang out and relax.
The house has many of the upgrades of a high end home without the hefty price of a home in Harbour Island or Banks Road. It is a great family home to explore both ends of Eleuthera and return to at the end of the day. It is close to all Rainbow Bay beaches. This house also features a pool in the back with a large deck for those lazy days when you just want to stay home. A great location in the central Eleuthera for a larger family or group.
