Nicely kept cottage

This is a darling little cottage for two. We would have liked to have a tv. I didn’t think to ask when I booked. Although it was charming the location on a very busy street corner was not good. It was very loud starting at 7:30 in the morning until late at night. The gas golf carts are very loud and this seems to be the main thru way for all the workers.

Great rental

We loved this place. Very comfortable amount of space and very clean. The kitchen was perfect for making anything we wanted to make - dinner, smoothies, coffee, etc. Great location - we had a golf cart but you can certainly go without one. Hosts were very helpful and responsive. Our Harbour Island vacation was perfect in a large part due to this great rental. Overall, I recommend the rental as much as possible!

Charming historic cottage in Dunmore Town

Fantastic stay at Dunmore House in Dunmore Town. Great location to walk to town although we did rent a golf cart too. Historic cottage very cosy and we had all the amenities we needed: kitchen, WiFi, beach towels, outdoor shower, AC, nice linens, beautiful & comfy couch/chairs and gorgeous Bahamian decor. Our favorite spot was the front porch where we sat and read and watched all the local traffic go by. Lush tropical gardens on property. Host Celeste was communicative, professional, and responded immediately via WhatsApp whenever we had a question. She is very sweet and forthcoming with information to make your stay enjoyable and seamless. Island is charming, laid back and quiet. Many days we walked Pink Beach, a 3-mile stretch, without a sole in site. Recommend Dunmore House without reservation, especially if you want to stay in a historic cottage instead of a hotel/resort and have the option to prepare your own food if you wish. Great 5-star restaurants, coffee houses & shops within walking distance to cottage. We will be back! Island is a gem!

Why they chose this property

Harbour Island is all it's splendor highlight is most certainly it's beautiful pink sands beach. Just a 5 minute golf cart ride from Dunmore House, you can rent beach chairs from any of the beach vendors at the public entrances, and lounge on your chair, read a book while the kids play and soak up some sun.

What makes this property unique

What makes Dunmore House so special is it being an historic cozy little cottage in the heart of Harbour Island. It is centrally located in town in close proximity to food stores and restaurants.
