Overview & Photos
People say Halcyon has the best views on Eleuthera… You be the judge. Peaceful, calming, extremely private and unbelievably beautiful are words often used to describe Halcyon.
This 3-bedroom, 3 1/2 bath house is meticulously maintained and beautifully decorated. Gorgeous gardens surround the house and pool. Halcyon looks out over Savannah Sound with sweeping views. Sunrise and sunset are both enjoyed at Halcyon! Best stargazing ever.
Walk across the backyard and down a few steps to our private sandy beach with calm, perfectly clear water. This protected beach is perfect for swimming, snorkeling, kayaking, and paddleboarding.

Sarah S. from Arvada, CO US recommends this vacation rental.
I first want to say I never wanted to leave, Eleuthera is an amazing island and something very special. If you want a secluded house with a private beach to enjoy the views of the ocean, this is the place. The blue water views when you walk in are amazing and the property offers so much! The house is beautiful plenty of room for a family, the kitchen is well equipped with everything you need, best past is an amazing ice maker we used excessively! There are three different types of coffee makers, plenty of pots and pans, spices! The beds are very comfy, and the AC keeps each room cool! It’s great to have the pool right out back, there were even rafts and blow ups for the kids! There are steps down to the private beach we didn’t see anyone the whole trip! It’s very shallow and clear, great for some easy snow, the best part was the numerous sea turtles everywhere!! We saw other sea life, sting rays, crabs, fish, even tiny sharks! Nish was a wonderful perk of the house, she was so attentive and kind, she cleans twice a week and even brought us fresh mangos from her yard!! She helped us with all of our questions and gave us great recommendations on things to do, she is fabulous!! Everyone on the island is so friendly and welcoming, we will be back!!

A guest from Irvine, NA Unknown recommends this vacation rental.
We were searching for a extremely private beach house with a pool and we found it. This place is amazing. The interior design is dated, but it still works very well. We did not have internet the entire time that we were there, but we didn't need it. Windermere Island is gated and very secure. Nothing bad about this trip.
