Overview & Photos
Welcome to Villa Atlantic Sunrise, a large and tranquil beachfront property with 250 feet of private beachfront on a miles-long deserted pink sand beach. Villa Atlantic Sunrise is ideal for anyone who likes the feeling of privacy in a beautiful ocean and beach landscape. Help and assistance is close if needed, but you will not be disturbed if you don't want to be. You can watch the sunrise directly from your bed! Atlantic Sunrise has no neighbors to the south for a mile. To the north is one neighbor, but the foliage in between provides for complete privacy, and the beach is always deserted.
This property has excellent snorkeling right off the beach in front of the house. For those who enjoy walking along the beach, you can walk for miles on our beach in either direction. The beachfront restaurant/bar called The Deck is on this beach, a nice long walk to the south.
SPECIAL ENERGY CONSERVATION REBATE: For guests who stay with us in May through September, we will rebate you $100 per week if you use less than 5 Kwh per week of electricity!
This spacious house (2600 square feet) features an expansive great room with spectacular beach and ocean views from the living area, dining area, and kitchen. The living area features a 10-foot sliding glass wall looking out at the ocean. The room is furnished with a teak dining set, a rattan couch set, and a rocking chair.
Atlantic Sunrise has a large open kitchen with a countertop facing the great room. The kitchen is fully equipped with a refrigerator/freezer, glass-top range, coffee machine, blender, toaster, microwave, ice crusher, pots and pans of different sizes, and more. The counter tops are elegantly finished with French tiles.
Villa Atlantic Sunrise has two bedrooms, both with views of the beach and ocean. The king-bed master suite, like the great room, features a 10-foot sliding glass wall looking out at the ocean. The guest bedroom has a queen bed. Both bedrooms have large full baths with double sinks and showers. The master suite also has a luxurious over-sized tub.
Note: There is an extra room with a sofa bed, which is included if you pay for a 5th guest.
The oceanfront veranda is ideal for watching the sunrise, the sea, or the stars. It is roofed for shade and furnished with a teak dining set. There is an outdoor shower beside it. Walk off your veranda and across your yard and right onto a miles-long deserted pink sand beach.
Atlantic Sunrise is fully air conditioned. There are also ceiling fans in all rooms. The house is equipped with a washing machine. Your clothes will dry quickly and naturally on the clothes line in the ocean breeze. There is charcoal grill outside for open-air grilling, and a dining set on the ocean-view veranda for outdoor dining. The house comes with two hammocks. Villa Atlantic Sunrise is a perfect spot for hammock time with the sound of the ocean to put you to sleep. The yard also has a lovely shady palm garden of mature palm trees.

Overall the experience was wonderful. The house was comfortable and nicely appointed with all we needed. Be careful entering and exiting the property, as not all residents of the road leading in and out drive safely.
Your own private beach!

Greta W. from Phoenix, Arizona United States recommends this vacation rental.
This is the 2nd year we've booked and will never go anywhere else. The rooms are nice and large, clean, it cools down quickly and has a very large covered porch which is your 2nd living room. It's just beautiful and the yard is very lush but maintained. There is small sand path to the beach which is about as good as you would want. Huge sandy beach with calm enough waters. You need to get past the shore breaks, but most are in super shallow water. The water is crystal clear. There are rocks to navigate but you can go in pretty far before them.
If you want privacy and pure beach time with a house with some space, this is perfect. The house is well maintained. Highly recommend. The location is convenient because James Cistern is just up the road with a few good places to eat and drink, groceries and liquor. Governors Harbor is also close, about 10 minutes.

Chris C. from San Clemente, CA United States recommends this vacation rental.
Our Family, 2 adult children and my wife and I are repeat Eleutheran travelers and our last stay at Atlantic Sunrise was also a return trip. We love the beach in front of the house, and being close to James Cistern and Governors Harbor, but with so many miles of empty beaches and great snorkeling right at our doorstep. The house was clean and everything was in good condition as usual. Linda the caretaker was on top of things as usual. We will certainly be back.

The house was all we needed for our stay! The location was fantastic! Like many beaches on Eleuthera, we only saw a few people during our entire stay. The house was extremely well maintained considering the harsh environment of being beachfront.
Absolutely the best location on the island

Garry H. from Monmouth Beach, NJ United States recommends this vacation rental.
Not our first trip to Eleuthera but our first time staying at this wonderful home. We've rented homes on both sides of the island, this location is my favorite. It is very private, although near the airport we only heard one plane take off the entire time we were there and we were swimming at the time. Don't be fooled by the proximity, it is a very peaceful location. You'll also appreciate the location when it's time to leave. It's also very close to the grocery stores in James Cistern and Governors Harbor.
The house itself if well furnished with everything you need to prepare dinner or just hang out with the family. We really appreciated the amazing sunrises each morning.
We spent many hours on the porch watching the waves and enjoying the ocean breezes. We are divers and love the water, the reef in front of the house is probably one of the nicest that is reachable from shore. Don't read the travel guides, no other reef we visited on our previous trips comes close the life on the reef in front of the home. This reef is truly a hidden gem, maybe not anymore. We spent hours each day, even after returning from dive trips, snorkeling in front of the house. Beach is clean and private.
The caretaker was very responsive to any needs we had during our stay as was Matthew @ Eleuthera Vacation Rentals.
I want to thank the owners for allowing us to stay in their beautiful home.
Above and beyond!

A guest from Oakdale, CA United States recommends this vacation rental.
We are not the resort or cruise type people, so when vacationing we gravitate to areas that are less people but also have local flare. This villa provided the perfect integration of private but also access to great restaurants and activities.
You will need to rent a car to get around to the eateries, because it is pretty isolated. We LOVED that, we were at the villa for five days and never saw a person on the beach! The water is crazy beautiful and we just kept saying "Wow!" The breeze on the porch made it our favorite place to hang out, and cooled things down a bit. Linda was very nice, but we never needed anything so didn't have much interaction with her. The house was very clean and we felt very comfortable. In a nutshell, if you love privacy but also great places to eat and things to do- this is your place. We are grateful to God for His beautiful creation and grateful to have stayed in this wonderful place.

A guest from Springfield, MO US recommends this vacation rental.
We were initially wondering how much privacy we would have with a neighbor so close. Not at issue. The short path to the beach had shrubs and we really could not see the house to the north.
There was no one sharing that beach. My wife walked every day all the way south to where she could see some of the Navy base structure. No people.
Bring your own source of music if you like music, or news. We bring a very small radio to listen to news (ZNS) but forgot our Bluetooth speakers.
Too windy on the beach? Cross the highway to Alabaster.
Also, the projector worked great once I figured things out.

Ken C. from Ingersoll, ON Canada recommends this vacation rental.
Four of us found Atlantic Sunrise Villa to be a lovely place to stay in Eleuthera. Booking went smoothly. The caretaker contact was helpful and quick to reply to any questions. The rooms are huge and reasonably furnished. The villa was clean as a whistle on arrival. All appliances worked. Dishware, cutlery, and cookware were sufficient for our needs. The deck areas were spacious, and often used. The beach was excellent for walking, though access became tricky after some sand erosion as a result of prolonged onshore winds. James Cistern is only a five minute drive, and has several decent stores for shopping, and a gas station. Governor's Harbour is 15 minutes by car. I would recommend this property to friends and family.
We love the island

Lara M. from San Antonio, Texas United States recommends this vacation rental.
Atlantic Villa Sunrise was a great escape! We booked it for our wedding/honeymoon week and loved it. The house is a little outdated and could use some minor repairs but overall not a deal breaker. The windows and doors all have screens enabling us to keep them open during the day and keep bugs out. The back porch faces the Atlantic Ocean and was a two min walk to a beautiful beach. We were there a week and didn’t see another person on it. The sunrises were spectacular and during low tide there were opportunities for shell hunting.
The only negative things during our stay was the miscommunication for checking in. We received a very detailed letter explaining the ins and outs of eh house, and that The property caretaker would meet us to show us around. We emailed her and didn’t get much response. Upon arrival I called her and she said the keys were in the house. Also, we were asked to fill a water container before leaving for the next guests, however, it was nearly empty when we arrived.
Make sure you bring a hairdryer and if you need to do laundry, it’s hang dry only as there is not a dryer. Both bedrooms have a wall AC unit which were perfect for sleeping.
Overall, we loved this property and would love to rent again in the future!
