About this property

PRIVATE ESTATE ON PINK SAND BCH WITH PRIVATE POOL, WALK TO REST./BAR.

Welcome to Owl’s Roost. This private estate looks out over a pristine, mile-long pink-sand beach. Although totally secluded, Owl’s Roost is just a 5 minute walk down the beach from Pascale’s famous beachfront restaurant and bar. Governors Harbour, the main town on the island with other restaurants, bars, grocery stores, banks, gift shops, bakery and more, is five minutes away by car. From all the rooms in this house, the beach and ocean are everywhere. A new heated pool was completed in November 2022 with a marvelous view of our pink sand beach! You can see and hear the ocean as if you were standing on the beach. (There is a fee of $385 per week to heat the pool.)

PLEASE NOTE: WE LOVE CHILDREN, BUT OUR VERANDA AND STAIRS DOWN TO THE BACK YARD HAVE ONLY CABLE RAILINGS, AND ARE POTENTIAL FALL HAZARDS, SO WE REGRET THAT WE CAN'T HOST CHILDREN UNDER AGE 12.

Owl’s Roost consists of a large central living area and two wings containing bedrooms. The magnificent high-ceilinged great room features sweeping 180-degree views of the ocean. The sitting area is furnished with sofas and armchairs facing the sea. The dining area also enjoys ocean views and has seating for 6 to 8. There is an adjacent TV area as well.

The luxurious island kitchen is equipped with a Sub-Zero refrigerator, glass-top range, two wall ovens, dishwasher and microwave. It also enjoys an ocean view. The kitchen is very high end, fully functional but dated.

One wing of the house is occupied entirely by the enormous master suite, which features a king bed and an ocean view. The en suite bath has a walk-in shower, water closet, and double sinks. There is a half bath and a laundry room off of the hallway to this wing.

The second wing houses the two guest suites. It is under the same roof as the rest of the house, but does not connect internally, so you walk 10 feet across the veranda to access the guest suites. Each guest suite has a private entrance from the veranda, full ensuite bath with a walk-in shower, and a beautiful beach and ocean view. The bathrooms are older but well maintained. One suite has a king bed and the other twin beds. Please note, the twin beds cannot be converted to a king.

A broad veranda extends the full length of the house facing the sea, and wraps around to the front of the house as well. It is one of Owl’s Roosts most delightful features. Every room has a sliding door to the veranda. There is a grassy jeep track that passes between the house and the beach. It is almost never used and feels like part of your front yard. Our pristine beach is a mile long, wide and flat, with beautiful pinkish sand and the clearest water. It is well protected by a barrier reef so the surf is very gentle, excepting only when there is a storm out at sea. You will usually have the world-class beach to yourself.

Amenities at Owls Roost include AC throughout, WIFI, satellite TV., washer/dryer, books and games, private heated pool and backup generator.

Another wonderful week in Eleuthera!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Owl's Roost was the perfect location to celebrate my husband's 50th birthday. This was our 6th trip to Eleuthera and it never disappoints. The location was absolute perfection and between the gorgeous pool and private, pristine beach, it is truly heaven. While the interior of the house is somewhat dated and a door on the toilet in the master suite would be a great add :), it's a fun throw-back to another time and very comfortable. The kitchen is incredibly well-appointed and made the week very easy, whether we were just making breakfast or having a full dinner party. Bottom line: before we left, we were already thinking about when we could come back.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Owls Roost provides a wonderful setting to experience Eleuthera beginning with a nicely appointed house with great ocean views and access to the beach. The heated pool is a welcome feature in the winter and Spring.Ther location works well as you are only a few minutes from Governors Harbor centrally located on the island. The house situated on a large private campus with beautiful landscaping creating a private setting from the road and neighbors.

Tropical Paradise
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was spacious, clean and private the perfect getaway for us. The pool was fantastic heated and quality lounge chairs outside the pool and inside the view was spectacular with amazing palm tree landscaping just a beautiful property. The beach was just beautiful the sand soft and pink and you could walk a long way. Beware the no see ums torn us up 100’s of bites spray all of your skin!! We truly loved this place and we even saw 2 owls !! The rental car worked out fine and the liquor store had everything and the Burrows grocery store had enough to gets us through the week.restaurants Daddy Joes was good and 1648 was delicious. Spanish Wells wasn’t worth the trip but rented a golf cart and drove around and had lunch. We did a full day sail which we all enjoyed! So thank you owners for giving us the opportunity to rent your place you are blessed to have such a Special home on such a tranquil island. The deal breaker for us was the North Eleuthera airport the arrival was fine but the Saturday departure was an F. It was a nightmare, what a mess it was like a Saturday Night live skit you couldn’t even imagine it you had to be there, let me be clear the individual employees were doing their jobs but the chaos, disorganized people, the crapped facility, no where to sit especially for the handicapped and elderly just a mess. It can not handle volume and should not be allowed to operate at over capacity it’s really dangerous.
