Overview & Photos
Introducing Utopia, our newly remodeled home on exclusive Windermere Island, which we are renting for the first time. Enjoy the understated ease of Utopia, as comfortable as the warm breezes blowing throughout, and as welcoming and friendly as the people of Eleuthera.
Utopia is a 3 bedroom, 3 bath home sitting on top of a small hill with amazing views of the Atlantic Ocean on the east and the Savannah Sound on the west. Enjoy beautiful sunrise and sunset every day, and phenomenal stars overhead each night.
Utopia features a large and beautiful in- ground pool with views of the Sound. The grounds are shaded by mature trees and flowering bushes for the hummingbirds.
The house has just been updated with all new furnishings throughout, a new kitchen, new AC, and a new roof. The bedrooms all have beautiful water views and are situated around the large living and dining areas. Every bedroom has an en-suite bath. The bedrooms consist of one king bedroom with an ocean view, one queen bedroom with a view of the sound, and an ocean-view bunk room with two bunk beds, so it can sleep 4. Each en-suite bath has a walk-in shower.
The house comes with all the amenities one could want in an easy, comfortable beach house. There are 2 stand-up paddle boards, 2 kayaks, 4 bikes, board games, art supplies, beach chairs, umbrella, coolers, some snorkel gear, towels, a gas grill, and a back-up generator. We also have up to two golf carts that can be rented for $50 per day. They can be used to go to the Club or any other location on Windermere Island.
The house has a well-equipped kitchen with Nespresso machine, stove, oven, full size refrigerator, dishwasher, and microwave. Other amenities at Utopia include a laundry room, superfast Starlink internet/WIFI, internet TV, Bluetooth speakers, landline phone, two outdoor showers, and a fire pit. A chef and/or maid service are available for an additional charge.
Windermere Beach, a world-class, 5-mile-long pink-sand beach is 150 yards away (a 1 or 2 minute walk) down a private footpath. West Beach on the Sound, which is a nursery for baby turtles, fish, and the occasional dolphin is a short bike ride away.
Utopia comes with membership in the Windermere Island Club, a 5 minute walk from the house. The club has a heated pool, tennis courts, gym, TV room, and in season, a restaurant/bar.
Beautiful Governor’s Harbour is a 25-minute drive away and offers many great restaurants, grocery stores, liquor stores, banks with ATMs, island bakery, coffee shop and other stores. There is a grocery store called Midway Cost Cutters 6 minutes from the house which offers food delivery upon arrival. The excellent Fishbone Grill waterfront restaurant is also 6 minutes away by car.

Ismael A. from FORTSON, Georgia United States recommends this vacation rental.
We cannot say enough about this property! From the initial contact to the departure of the property, we were treated like family. The house was spotless and very well stocked. There is everything you would need on a beach vacation...Sunscreen, bug spray, aloe, towels...the list goes on. The management was very attentive and wanted to make sure we were more than comfortable. We will be returning to this home for years to come. The only complaint we had was that we didn't get to stay long enough. ;)

David C. from United States recommends this vacation rental.
We enjoyed our stay in this very comfortable home with beautiful views of the ocean and sound. The grounds are nicely landscaped with flowers everywhere you look. We enjoyed spending time in the pool where we were able to watch humming birds, butterflies and blue herons all around us, in close proximity. Amazing! Paddle boarding at West Beach was tons of fun for us newbies. We also enjoyed the pickle ball court at the Club. Topping off the whole experience was a very responsive caretaker, Mack, and wonderful Pam at Eleuthera Vacation Rentals. Pam is incredibly knowledgeable about all things Eleuthera. She’s an amazing resource and we appreciated the literature she shared with us ahead of our visit, as well as her ongoing support throughout our trip.
Our stay at Itopia was beyond anything we could have imagined!

We were looking for a quiet get away and we got just that. Relaxing mornings and quiet evenings up on the sky bar looking at the amazing 360 views. The pool was refreshing and the house had everything we could have needed. Will definitely be back!

A guest from Vail, CO United States recommends this vacation rental.
We stayed for a month and loved it so much! Utopia has a gorgeous pool and sits on an island between the Atlantic (with pink sand beaches) and the sound which is an estuary for marine life (turtles, baby sharks, dolphins, stingray, puffer fish, bone fish, and a million other species.) There are also various bird species on land. The house is positioned to take in and enjoy the wildlife and all things Windermere. The house is surrounded by lush gardens. It’s truly a place like nowhere else. The house is cozy and comfortable but also sleek and modern with the right amount of nautical touches. Utopia is organized and well stocked. Anything you could want or need is available for you. The house staff are knowledgeable and helpful. They made us feel very taken care of during our stay. Utopia is the perfect home base for exploring Eleuthera. We can’t wait to visit again!

This was our second stay. We love it on Windermere. There is literally nothing going on there which is what we like. House has everything you could think of. Great place to cook, rest and relax.

Utopia House exceeded our expectations. Mack, the property manager was exceptional. He was responsive, resourceful and accommodating. The pool was outstanding and the sunsets were bar none. Proximity to the beach was excellent. We had a great family vacation and would stay there again.
The accommodations were fabulous.

The lush garden, private pool, location, and the well appointed home was simply paradise. The home has everything you could possibly need to elevate your vacation. We didn’t want to leave, seven days was not enough time for us. Thank you for sharing your lovely vacation home. We had an incredible stay!!

A guest from East Quogue, NY United States recommends this vacation rental.
Booking Utopia was a pleasure.
The house is in a great spot, clean, welcoming and so bright and airy. The house manager was there to help us with whatever we needed with a smile.
On the rare occasion we lost power, the generator kicked in immediately to provide power.
The views from the house are stunning, with both views of the sound and the ocean, and a great breeze day long.
I’d recommend this place to anyone.

We stayed for 12 nights at Utopia House, it was a beautiful home and very private. The rental company was wonderful to work with and everything worked perfect! The house had everything we needed and I loved the hummingbirds, tiny lizards and beautiful birds that we saw ever day. We snorkeled every day all around the island and found beautiful sand dollars, sea shells and sea biscuits everywhere. We saw a Manta Ray, Spotted Eagle Rays, a couple of Nurse Sharks and many beautiful fish. A dream come true for sure❤️

Elizabeth R. from BrynMawr, PA US recommends this vacation rental.
Utopia House is a special place! Situated on a low hill between the Atlantic Ocean and the sound, it was breezy, bright and really clean. The house is generously appointed, especially the kitchen. The pool area was private and lush. You can walk across the lane to one of the prettiest beaches in the world, and there were plenty of ‘toys’ to keep our family of four busy. Mack was top notch caretaker who made sure we had everything we needed. It was the perfect vacation. Only drawback was the no see-ums - they feast on you! Bring plenty of bug repellent.
