About this property

Elegant 2BR Villa w/Private Pool & 4 Seater Golf Cart for Beach Access

Tops House is an elegant, designer villa that features a large, open-plan living and dining area, and a fully equipped kitchen. Set on an elevated lot, the living space of this home opens to gracious verandas on both the front and back of the property, with a private swimming pool to the side. The villa is centrally located at the top of the main hill in Governors Harbour and is part of the distinguished Governors Harbour Collection of vacation rentals.

Tall ceilings throughout Tops House create a sense of grandeur and spaciousness. The two bedrooms both contain en-suite bathrooms and walk-in closets. Sliding glass doors in each open onto a shared wrap-around veranda. The master bedroom features a King 4-poster bed with Posturepedic mattress. The second bedroom has two Twins that convert into a second King (on request) with a plush, pillow-top mattress cover. There is an additional 1/2 bathroom with full laundry to the side of the kitchen.

Outside the villa, there are landscaped garden areas and decks as well as a small private swimming pool and patio area. At the guest's option, the pool can be heated for a fee of $250 per week. There is also a more recently added roof-top deck, which is perfectly positioned for admiring the beautiful blues of the ocean just beyond French Leave Beach at the bottom of the hill. A complimentary golf cart is included with the rental for easy access to this beach.

Additional amenities at Tops House include high efficiency air-conditioning throughout, cable TV, high-speed wireless internet, washer and dryer, and an outdoor gas grill. There are also beach towels, beach chairs, a beach umbrella, and several cooler bags provided for beach days.

For parents travelling with infants and young toddlers, the property managers can arrange for a traveler crib/pack n' play, high chair, and beach toys available for your convenience.

Tops House can be rented along with other homes on the estate to accommodate larger groups. Daily housekeeping, a private chef, in-home spa treatments, and other services are always available for an additional charge.

The town of Governor's Harbour, a three-minute walk down the hill, has a charming collection of 19th century homes and churches overlooking its historic harbor. Buy fresh fish and lobster every afternoon from fisherman at the town dock, or visit the recently restored Haynes Library, which dates from 1897. Governor's Harbour has grocery stores, restaurants, liquor stores, two banks with ATMs, a bakery, gift shops, a dive shop, and a medical clinic. Friday Night Fish Fry in Governor's Harbour, is a weekly street/beach party that brings together all the tourists and locals with food, drink, and dancing in the street until late!

A stroll downhill from the estate in the other direction leads to French Leave Beach, one of the finest beaches on the island and one of the great beaches of the Caribbean. By foot, it’s about 8 minutes to French Leave, a mile-long crescent of pink sand which is literally deserted most of the time. By golf cart, French Leave Beach is no more than 3 minutes from Tops House.

The island of Eleuthera is famous for its 100 miles of spectacular, deserted beaches. The snorkeling, diving, and fishing on the island are world class. Boating, surfing, and other water sports are also popular. There is excellent sightseeing as well. Eleuthera has vast caves, cliffs, a bottomless ocean hole, many unique beaches, historic churches and 19th century homes, and small villages to explore.

Gorgeous home with a view
This property was exactly as described. It is, indeed, elegant. Location was fantastic -- easy to get to French Leave Beach on the golf cart provided, and an easy walk (or drive) to restaurants, grocery stores and such. We loved the house-- nice layout with enough space to find privacy when you want it and plenty of space to gather as a family comfortably. Bright and airy, the stylish decor is pitch perfect. The property manager was very responsive and welcoming, making us feel at home.And, a big plus on Eleuthera when the weather is rainy and very windy: the home has a generator! An important perk when the power goes off on the island. Would absolutely recommend and would stay again!

Tops House is TOPS!
First off the Tops House is amazing! Perfect for two couples with both rooms ensuite. The kitchen is fully stocked. We cooked 7 out of eight nights. The Eleuthera Supply down the hill has a great selection but is cash only.. Burrows is just down the main highway a couple of blocks and takes credit cards. And if you like fish make sure you get Hendrix's phone number from Dom. Dom and Joy were awesome. Informative. Always available but not intrusive at all. Dom's orientation on arrival was key to our great time on the island. Alabastar beach was our top choice but we also like Ten Bay and French Leave Beach. We chartered a 1/2 day with Captaib Bubba of Fishbone Tours. I would suggest you agree on a plan before you charter. We winged it, was fun to be on the water but could have been better. Two pieces of advice... bring lots of cash as it is very expensive and if you are renting a car be forewarned of the pot holes. We had TWO flats on the way in to Governors Harbour. And we saw at least 4 cars on the way back to the AP with flat tires. The good news is the locals are super friendly and helpful! All in all, Tops is TOP!
