About this property
Compound w/Beach, Pool, PICKLEBALL, Gym, Kayaks, Golf Carts, VIEWS!
Building Two (comprised of 4 condominiums and 8 bedrooms) at Buttonwood Reserve Condo Resort offers families, friends or a wedding party the luxury, privacy and amenities for a perfect vacation.
This extraordinary property is located on a ridge 45 feet above the Caribbean. The views of both oceans are truly breathtaking. From your large windows and extensive decks, you can watch the sun rise over the Atlantic and set over the Caribbean.
Buttonwood Reserve is situated on 50 acres, with beaches on both sides of the property. On the Atlantic side, Buttonwood has a world-class, 3-mile-long pink-sand beach, pristine, without a single house on it. This Atlantic side beach is accessed via our private, golf-carts only driveway. The property comes with a fleet of golf carts. This miles-long beach is virtually private for us, because the only other access is a rough and little used jeep track half a mile to the south. On the Caribbean side of our property, almost in your front yard, is a second beach, which has excellent snorkeling, kayaking, paddle boarding and fishing. This beach is small and rather rocky, so not so aesthetic, but it's as calm as a lake most of the time and perfect for the above activities.
If you're not in the mood for a swim in the ocean, slip into our resort-style pool. This beautiful landscaped pool is heated for comfortable swimming year-round.
Buttonwood Reserve comes with golf carts, kayaks, paddle boards, and bikes. Other amenities include AC throughout, ceiling fans, and superfast Starlink WIFI. To ensure uninterrupted power, Buttonwood has a full solar array, back-up batteries to power the entire property, and a connection to the grid in case we ever need it.
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 optional Main Lodge is a central gathering place for large groups. It includes a large ocean-view living area, dining area, and kitchen, where large groups can gather for dining and leisure time. It has a big deck overlooking the Caribbean with a sunset view, a bedroom with a king bed and an ocean view, one full bath, and a couple of sleeping lofts suitable for teenagers. It can be added to your reservation for an additional charge if desired.
Buttonwood Building Two consists of four 2-bedroom, 2-bath condos, each with a full kitchen. Each condo features a large great room with an 8-foot sliding glass door with spectacular Caribbean views. The slider opens onto a large deck furnished for lounging or dining while watching the sun set over the sea. Enjoy a meal or a beverage, or watch the dolphins frolic in the Caribbean. The great room includes a living area with flat-screen satellite TV, a dining area with dining room seating for six, and a modern, open-plan, luxurious kitchen finished in stainless steel and black granite. All areas have magnificent ocean views in every direction, with water sparkling as far as the eye can see.
The master bedroom of each condo features a large upholstered window seat with panoramic views of the Caribbean, a perfect spot to relax with a book or a morning coffee. The master is furnished with a king bed and equipped with an en-suite full bath, and has a private door leading to the deck.
The guest bedroom of each condo also features a large window seat. The guest bedrooms of the upper two condos enjoy spectacular Atlantic Ocean views. Each guest bedroom has a full en-suite bath (which can be accessed from the hall as well). The guest bedrooms are furnished with twin beds that can be converted into a king.
Buttonwood is 1 mile from James Cistern, which has grocery stores, restaurants, a liquor store, and a town dock where you can at times purchase fresh fish. Three excellent restaurants are within walking distance, including LeoRose, Delish, and Mels'. Famous Stubbs Barbecue is 2 miles up the road.
The island's main town, Governors Harbour, is a 15-min. drive.
