Restored Historic Waterfront Captains Home, Sunset Views, Walk to Beach

Welcome to FOLLY!

One of the most beautiful Victorian Houses in Governors Harbour Eleuthera, with breathtaking views of the Harbour from sunrise to sunset. Sunset cocktails are an absolute must!!

The main town of Governor's Harbour, steps from our front door, has grocery stores, restaurants, liquor stores, two banks with ATMs, a bakery, gift shops, a diving shop, and medical clinic. You can buy fresh fish every afternoon from fishermen at the town dock.

Friday Night Fish Fry in the Harbour is a street/beach party that brings all of the tourists and locals together with food, drinks, and dancing in the street. Something not to be missed… and you can walk.

Governors Harbour also has a beach on the harbor which you can see from the front of the house, and which you can walk to in two minutes.

Enjoy a beautiful night on the wrap around porch, dining alfresco and sipping cocktails while watching all the boats and activities.

Perfect central location!

Folly is a beautiful historic home centrally located in Governor's Harbor within walking distance of several restaurants, a grocery store, gas station and a short walk across the street to swim in the harbor. The house was just as pictured and very clean. It was built over 100 yrs ago! Martha was very quick to respond to every request. I highly recommend for location - we had 4 adults and 2 kids. Wifi was awesome!

A little slice of heaven

Our stay at Folly and trip to Eleuthera was beyond perfect. Folly is your quintessential Bahamian home. The location is fabulous. It’s within walking distance to the store, a couple of shops and restaurants. We also were able to walk to the Fish Fry, which turned out to be the highlight of our trip. The property manager was easy to get a hold of and Leo, the caretaker of Folly, went above and beyond. He even cut down and crack open some coconuts for us. It was truly a dream vacation.

Insecure home broken into multiple times during our stay

The owner was aware of multiple break ins to a home she owns next door and failed to secure at least 20 windows in this house - which had no locks and could be opened freely from the exterior with no resistance when we arrived. Not surprisingly, we were broken into as well. When we realized things weren't just misplaced, they had been stolen and were taken on different days - it was terrifying to stay in this house for the last night before we left, wondering if they'd come back again. Also - the AC in the fourth room wasn't working - making the room unusable, the oven was broken (but repaired two days later) and there were cockroaches and ants in the kitchen and rust on many places on the exterior of the house. The owner also forgot we were coming so there was 1/2 a roll of toilet paper for the whole house and no hand or dish soap when we arrived.

A week in Paradise

We loved this house with an incredible view of the harbor! Being centrally located on the island, we were able to explore a lot of the island. And the house was well supplied with kitchen items and linens! We would definitely there again if the opportunity arose!

Perfect in every way!

We are seasoned travelers to this location and Have stayed at this house many times over the years. It is charming, well provisioned, and perfect location to get to anywhere on the island. We can’t wait to be back for more porch sunsets. It is a literal aquarium in front of the house - this visit we spotted eagle rays, shark, grouper, dolphins and more!

Vacation at Folly

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Recently stayed at Folly for two weeks. We were pleased to get the house because it was a last minute booking and they are pet friendly. The location is ideal being in the center of "town" and in close vicinity to restaurants and quick drive to the beaches. The house is an older Victorian house that although charming, is in need of renovating.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Folly house is in a great spot in Governors Harbor. We had amazing sunsets from the front porch. The house was built in 1850 and was supper cool. Everything was in good shape except one of the ceiling fans and an AC unit. The staff was all over it and fixed the problem. The location is really handy to a food and beverage stores. Best of luck to all people that choose this great property.
