Surf Song - Perched Directly on the Beach at Windermere Island

While we were surprised to learn that there is NO AIRCONDITIONING in a house of this size, the FANS in the house DID NOT WORK, there was NO TELEPHONE SERVICE or TV/CABLE SERVICE for the children! THE POOL WAS FILTHY UPON ARRIVAL! THE BEACH access was the saving grace for this property, which may have been acceptable once upon a time. And the owner, was quite rude about the LACK OF FACILITIES.

My family had a wonderful time staying at Surf Song this past week. The house was beautiful and fully equipped. It was perfect for the two families that were sharing it. We have elementary aged children who loved the pool and the beach access. The beach is the best on Eleuthera. We love the central location of the house, you can spend all day at the beach in front of the house or get in the car and go to one of the other lovely beaches nearby. The kitchen was recently updated and made cooking a breeze. We have stayed in various properties on Eleuthera and this was by far the best maintained property and had the best equipment in the kitchen. We loved seeing Winnie every morning. She is full of knowledge about the island and she kept the house fresh and clean and put fresh flowers in every room! We are looking forward to coming back next year!

Let me start by saying I have been all around the world to some of the most amazing beaches including the Seychelles, Amirante Islands etc. Windermere Island is a special quiet little slice of paradise that you don't have to travel across the world to get to (at least for me) Surf Song is perfection!!! It's comfortable and very homey! The view is amazing! The sound of the ocean in the rooms is unparalleled!!!! My advice take a chair down to the beach and a book and chill! Leave your phone off at the house! My tip would be to bring shampoo and conditioner as these are not easily purchased on the island. If you are picky also buy a foam divider to make the twin beds into a seamless king bed. We saw 2 other couples on the beach on our trip but that was it. It's really a quiet secluded get back to nature and the simple life kind of place. I would recommend staying as long as possible. I only had 4 days and it took me that long to relax. I cannot wait to get back to surf song again soon.

Stayed 11 days at Surf Song, a beautiful property on Windermere beach. The home is as close to the waves as you can possibly build properly so the whole home is filled with the sound of ocean all the time hence the name. The large sliding doors on all sides of the main room open wide on 3 sides plus the front doors as well so the breeze blows through the whole home so even though there is no AC, it wasn't needed. The island is very peaceful and the beaches on March break are very uncrowded. The beach is very, very wide and beautiful for walks and running. The club was great for dinner, it is intimate and everyone gathers at the bar before dinner where you can easily strike up a conversation if you wish. The staff are very friendly and provide great service. Eleuthera in general is a very special island, but it is not for everyone, it is hard to describe but it is not Nassau, relatively speaking there is very little in the way of tourist infrastructure, no night life except a few things like the fish fry at Governors Harbor and band night at Tippy's but really Eleuthera is like a place a bit at the end of the world and everyone who comes back here or lives there pretty much wants to keep it that way! We agree with those folks and keep going back. The locals are amazing, everyone knows everyone and are so friendly. Windermere Island is part of but again different than Eleuthera, it is more like a private club of homes in Bermuda than Eleuthera but still with those amazing unpopulated beaches Eleuthera is famous for. So while staying at Surf Song you can have a bit of Eleuthera's raw, unspoiled side as well as if you want a bit more refinement, you can retreat to Windermere Island and Surf Song.

Surf Song is a lovely family home on Windermere Island Eleuthera.

We really enjoyed our time in the Bahamas. Our hosts were great people and easy to deal with, resolving any issue swiftly.

The house is clean and modern, in a lovely private location, with everything you go to the Bahamas for on your doorstep.

The people of the Bahamas are friendly and keen to help you enjoy your vacation.

We recommend Surf Song for your family holidays.
