Great Place!

My wife and I stayed here for 7 weeks and absolutely loved it. Sunsets were amazing as the rear deck overlooks the Caribbean and the views are great. The host was great, very responsive and ensured that we had everything we needed! If you are on the fence.....just book the Little Red House!

Lovely home with beautiful views

We stayed for 8 nights and loved every moment. The home is very centrally located, and within a short drive to many jaw dropping beaches. The view from the 3 sets of French doors and wraparound deck is gorgeous. The kitchen had everything we could think of to cook in, and was very spacious. There are so many cozy places to sit and take in the sounds of the ocean. The bed was extra comfortable. We hope to visit again.

Wonderful stay in paradise

The house was clean and spacious and well appointed. We had everything that we needed to enjoy our stay. The owners were great at communicating and very accommodating. They even went so far as to inform us of some fridge troubles they were experiencing that had no effect on our stay. We would highly recommend this place to anyone wishing to explore Eleuthera and all it has to offer. The property manager was also wonderful amd helped us in finding some of the things we were looking for.

Beautiful home and awesome location

We spent 11 nights at Lil' Red House. It was nicely centrally located in Palmetto. The home was comfortable, including the bed. Fully furnished kitchen and appliances. Washer and dryer. It fit all our needs. We would definately stay here again. Phil, the manager, was very prompt to answer any questions.

Lil Red House was just perfect for the 2 of us! Wonderful tidal pools in front of the cottage made for great shelling and kayaking as water was calm. Well stocked kitchen with new appliances. Gas Grill was a bonus! Central location. Island Farmers Market was few minutes south. GH was easy ride north. Visited Cathedral Caves and Ocean Hole . Wild Orchid in Rock Sound was delicious. Tippy's is a must! Pineapple Players Lounge in GH has best shrimp & fish tacos and wonderful drinks! Thanks, Jake and Phil for a wonderful vacation. Eleuthera is magical!

Perfect place in Paradise

Well-equipped kitchen, lots of beach supplies (chairs, snorkel fins, towels) . Efficient AC. Really nice to have a washing machine. The lofted ceiling makes the place spacious. Clean and modern. Beautiful waterfront view. The house is conveniently located in Palmetto Point so we could explore beaches in North and South Eleuthera, and go to restaurants in Governor’s Harbour. Highly recommend this house.

My husband and I have been to Eleuthera six years in a row. We honestly believe this is one of our favorite houses. The location is wonderful and so central to everything that we like to do and places to eat. You cannot beat the view as it is right on the water. The price is so reasonable compared to the value of this property. The neighbors were close, but we never saw or encountered anyone. The beach is rocky, but there’s places to wade your way in. The home offers a kayak, which we used to explore up and down the area and it also had snorkeling equipment, which we used several times, but especially in front of the property. Communication with the owners and Phil was great. We never had any issues at all, so communication was limited, but they were readily accessible if needed. The home provided tons of towels, beach chairs, an umbrella, and backpack cooler. It had a washer/dryer, and everything you need for a cozy, homie stay. Wish we could have stayed longer! If you are reading this and considering this home, just book it. It’s awesome.

Lil Red House

The house was newly renovated and very up to date. Before we arrived we were told that the AC in the living area was not working due to a power surge on the island and parts were being ordered and would be fixed. The bedroom unit was working and (according to previous guests) was enough to cool whole house. While it did great for the bedroom, the rest of the house was warm. On our first morning, unfortunately the water heater failed so no hot water. Property management was very responsive and helpful as we notified them right away. Water heater replaced once one was located (3 days) and although AC was fixed, it never stayed working but we left the bedroom door open and it helped. Overall our stay was very nice. Beautiful location, beautiful island and lovely people. We know island life has its challenges but also its rewards....we would return :)

Fabulous return to Eleuthera

The Lil’ Red House was perfect for our trip back to Eleuthera. We came to the island for the first time on our honeymoon. 10 years later we got to return here and we’re so thankful! The location was amazing. We like staying in the middle of the island so we can go both north and south. This was our first time staying on the Caribbean side and it was the very best. Sunrise and sunset over beautiful, calm, clear water. The rental was well stocked with extra touches that we know are luxuries on Eleuthera. We made our breakfast and lunch each day and really enjoyed the view for every meal. We were excited for the coffee maker and floored over the washer and dryer! We had the best time snorkeling right off the porch in the water. We made it to other locations but waking up and walking outside could not be beat. We did have neighbors on both sides, but we had no trouble feeling privacy. The bed and space were great, and as we did not have our kids we could stay up late and watch a movie together or read books. It was just a truly wonderful stay at a great rental.

Tolles kleines Häuschen, in dem man sich sofort wohl fühlt. Das Meer vor der Haustür - einfach traumhaft. Alles da, was man braucht. Von Strandtücher über Strandstühle und Sonnenschirm bis zum Kajak. Nur Insektenspray sollte man unbedingt mithaben oder besser vor Ort kaufen. Herkömmliche Mittel aus Europa helfen nicht.

Delightful!!

Lovely home near some of the best beaches we've ever visited. Attention to detail from the owner is obvious at this rental, including small items not always available such as shampoo, insect repellent, first aid supplies, plenty of bath and beach towels, paper towels, food storage, etc. etc. Good driving directions to the home and good reference for a rental car. This is a newer rental home and the grounds will be even more beautiful in a few years once the landscaping has grown in. Proximity to a farmer's produce stand was a huge bonus - be sure to get some of the fresh salsa and freshly baked bread (available twice a week while supplies last)! Centrally located, all points of the island can be explored depending on how much time away from the beach you're willing to spend in a car. We had issues with biting insects no matter where we were after dusk or if the when the wind died down, so be sure to bring good repellent and something to treat any bites. A few restaurants are available in Palmetto Point and there are others available in Governor's Harbor. Rent while you can, we expect this will become a very popular villa!!
