"Beautiful Retreat
This vacation home is stunning and very well appointed. The house was beautiful and very clean. The pool was amazing. A lovely retreat for our family. I thought the beach was pictured as closer, it is quite a walk or drive to reach the beach. Once at the beach a mostly private piece of paradise. Stunning on all accounts. "

"One Palm Hill Eleuthera Bahamas
6 weeks of total relaxation."

"Well-appointed home in private neighborhood
We had a lovely stay at One Palm Hill. Communication from when we booked the home to when we arrived and through our stay was easy and timely. The home was extremely well-appointed - we cooked dinner every night at the home and felt like we were cooking in our own kitchen. Home was very clean and is located in a beautiful and very private neighborhood, yet very close to town and in a central location to explore both northern and southern parts of island. We have visited many other Bahamian islands through the years and various accommodations - One Palm Hill is one of the nicest and we hope to visit again in the future. Thank you!"

"Scenic and simple
The home is well kept. Easy access to GH. Pleasant greeting from Misty. Would highly recommend the property except for the consistent reminder in numerous places to turn off AC/conserve H2O."

"Nice house in central Eleuthera
The house is located centrally. Short car ride away from the Governors Harbour airport, grocery, gas and restaurants. This is our favorite area of Eleuthera as it’s very convenient. The house is very pretty and has plenty of linens, cooking utensils and basics such as shampoo, conditioner, laundry and dish soap. Having 3 bathrooms made it so convenient and comfortable. Beds and pillows are comfortable.
The landscape and pool area are very nice as is the view.
A few things we wished would have been better are the dusty curtains. Upon entering we were all sneezing and took allergy meds. The two bedrooms facing the driveway were specially dusty as the curtains are thin.
The rental provides 5 gallon filtered water that you can easily replenish at the local stores and also coffee and a drawer full of spices. Bring your sugar for coffee.
We enjoyed our stay and would recommend this property, hopefully the curtains get cleaned more often. "

"Love it!
We had the best time and the house was perfect for us. "

"Thumbs Up
My wife and I have traveled for many years and have never experienced a home this nice. Everything we needed was right there. Exceptionally clean, well-stocked and convenient to beached and restaurants."

"Awesome house, great location
We rented One Palm Hill from mid December '22, through the end of March, '23. The 3 bed/3 bath layout easily accommodated our several guests.

The home is located in a quiet and safe neighborhood. It is very well furnished and equipped. The kitchen has everything that you would need to prepare a complete meal and the beds and linens provide for a peaceful night's rest.

The living room has slip covered and comfortable pieces which provide for indoor relaxation.

Cross breezes when the house is opened are a perfect alternative to the air conditioning units which functioned flawlessly throughout the home.

Importantly, the generator at One Palm Hill never missed a beat supplying power to the whole house during the numerous and often extended power outages we experienced.

The house also has beach supplies which include comfortable beach chairs, plenty of beach towels, coolers and cool packs.

Outside the pool area is private and spacious, allowing for both sunny and shady spots to relax with a beverage. Other outside seating areas provide options to accommodate varying wind and sun conditions. A clean propane gas grill made barbecuing fresh fish and lobster a regular dinner alternative to dining out.

Twin Coves Beach is any easy 8 minute walk and Hut Point Beach is about a 10 minute walk. French Leave and other great Banks Road beaches are all a quiet 10 to 15 minute drive up the road with easy parking access. Restaurants, shops, and gas stations are also 5 minutes drive from the house down the road in Governors Harbor.

As great as the home is, the owner and management team were even better. Communication was timely and accurate. The owner, Kelly, clearly cares about the experience of her guests, and the manager of the property, Misty, and her team provided regular oversight to keep the home in top condition.

Obviously, we loved our time at One Palm Hill as well as the beautiful "

"Best trip ever!!
One Palm Hill is a beautiful home located in central Eleuthera. The home is very well equipped with everything you could possibly need while on vacation!! It is beautifully decorated and the beds are very comfortable. The pool was perfect to cool off in after a day of exploring. This was our first trip to Eleuthera and we fell in love!! Kristin at Eleuthera vacation rentals was awesome! The homeowner also reached out to us prior to our arrival and was available if we needed anything. Also, Misty, the caretaker of the home was also wonderful!!
We couldn’t have asked for a better vacation. If you’re thinking about booking One Pam Hill, don’t think any further... it is wonderful!! "

"Words cannot describe!
We are a group of 5 long-time friend who go on vacation annually. We absolutely loved One Palm Hill!!!! This is by far the very best we've ever stayed in. So clean, so comfortable, completely stocked with anything we could have needed or wanted. The pool is beautiful and a perfect spot for lounging. Short drive to Governor's Harbour which is a great town. Near beautiful beaches, both Atlantic and Caribbean. We are already trying to figure out how we can get back to One Palm Hill!!! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!!!"

"Stylish, full-featured villa
Excellent property, host and caretaker. Beautifully decorated/furnished villa. Well stocked with kitchen tools and food basics. House and grounds were spotless. Location is walking distance to gorgeous Twin Coves beach, which offers some of the best snorkeling on the island. Five minutes to Governors Harbor. Highly recommend."

"Paradise One Palm Hill
The house is perfect- spotless, fully stocked and equipped with everything you need. It is located in a quiet neighborhood - just a short drive to beaches and restaurants. The host and house manager were above and beyond attentive and very helpful. Thank you Kelly and Carol!"

"One Palm Hill
The house was all we had expected, completely furnished and in a convenient location.
We would recommend this home to anyone, anytime .
The pool is a very nice bonus to cool off on during the day."

"Great Vacation
One Palm Hill is a beautiful rental property. Very clean and comfortable, with everything you could possibly need. Great pool and pool area. Fabulous location. Couldn't ask for anything more than what this spot offered."

"One Palm Hill is fabulous!
We had such a great time at One Palm Hill! The house is gorgeous, centrally located and spotless! The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need from nice cookware to a full selection of glasses, serving platters, utensils, even spices. They have plenty of beach and pool towels, chairs, snorkeling equipment, coolers...anything you need for the beach. Carol, the house manager, was outstanding. She communicated well before, during and upon our departure. She helped us with our concierge, Sonja, who did a preliminary grocery run for us, a boat captain and helped us with reservations at Tippy's.
We swam in the pool everyday. It was such a nice bonus to have. I also didn't realize you could see the Atlantic from the house, so it was nice to look out and see it everyday. The road to the closest beach, Twin Coves, is a bit rocky, but once you got there, it was incredible-so private!

Also, Tara with Eleuthera Vacations, was very helpful with covid requirements before and after we left!
We highly recommend One Palm Hill and hope to come back one day soon! Thank you to Carol, Kristen and Tara for everything!"

"SUPER RELAXING!
Our family got a chance to visit Eleuthera for the first time, and we had a wonderful, relaxing stay at One Palm Hill villa! Pam Fontes made our reservation super easy and was very informative when we asked about car rentals and things to see and do! We met Carol at the villa upon arrival and she was the best at helping make our stay at One Palm Hill super relaxing! She pointed out grocery options, beaches, great restaurants and super places to have a drink and listen to some island music! The villa was everything you could wish for; the pool was clean and inviting, all bedrooms were nicely decorated and completely furnished, above what we expected! The owner, Krista, had so many games there that we had a great time with all our family every night! It was a great find, very nicely furnished, complete with even the spices needed for your favorite dish! The entire villa was laid out so everyone could move freely without getting in the way, and the many beaches within a short 5-10 minute drive would leave you breathless! We didn't want to leave. We will visit again for sure! We loved it there, and the people were so welcoming. If I had to mention any issue, it might be the long drive from North Eleuthera airport (1 hour). Might consider flying into Governors Harbor AP. Only 5 minutes away!"
Jul 09, 2021 - Andy C., GADSDEN, Alabama



"FANTASTIC !!!
The house is just beautiful. So clean, so quiet. We walked to the beach daily. It's a lovely walk. Great scenic exercise for those who like to explore by foot. The home was very well provisioned, had a great kitchen with supplies/utensils, easy to clean up and there is a grill for use as well. The pool area and the grounds were an oasis. The beds were another oasis of restful, comfortable sleep. All of the furniture was comfortable and very clean including the outdoor lounges and chairs. We hated to leave and hope to return SOON. We highly recommend this home, over and over, and over to all we know. The owner, Krista, and the rental agent that we used were very easy and friendly to deal with, too. GO. You will not regret it.

"Beautiful Home in Eleuthera
The home was beautiful and had all the amenities one needed. The bedrooms all have their own bathroom which is so convenient. Decor is lovely and comfortable.the location was awesome. Definitely need a car but so close to Governors Harbor to pick up any groceries or supplies. Or to go to many of the wonderful restaurants. Beautiful private beach is only down the hill or drive 5 minutes to the amazing French Leave beach. Many other beaches to visit and explore. The home is so private and loved having the pool with lounge chairs and umbrellas. Carol the caretaker was so helpful and took care of anything we needed. "

"Great Stay
Had a great week at One Palm Hill. House was extremely clean, and very nice. Fairly central location to lots of things on the island. House had plenty of beach equipment, and extra sunscreen/bug spray which was nice. We had no complaints and would definitely stay here again!"
May 20, 2019 - Mark M., Wyomissing, PA



"One Palm Hill
The property was lovely and beautifully maintained. We also liked being in a quiet but convenient area close to town. Carol, the property manager, was excellent and made herself available. The only frustration, was the refrigerator freezer did not work while we were there. We lost some food and had to have people come to the house several times."
Apr 13, 2019 - Amanda D., New York, NY



"Lovely hilltop villa
We loved One Palm Hill. It is private, beautifully appointed, comfortable, light and airy, and well-maintained. Excellent TV reception and WiFi. Pool was small but perfect for splashing around in;pool area was one of the nicest we have had in a rental property--chaises, sectional, umbrellas. Outdoor dining table under pergola.
Road to house is pretty rough, and you need to take it slow and easy, but the reward is the One Palm Hill. Town is tiny with a couple of small markets and a few restaurants. We liked Da Perk and the Buccaneer Club.

"Peaceful Paradise
If you live in the country as I do and you want a to feel like you are home in the islands this is the place for you and your family. It is one of the few places I have been where you can go to a beautiful beach two miles long and not see anyone else. I especially enjoyed picking my own (Sugar Baby) bananas right in the front yard, also being able to go one mile away and get Lobster, Red Snapper, Maui Maui, and Grouper was a real treat.the house was beautiful and very accomodating for the three of us. Having your own pool speaks for itself. "

"Absolutely perfect!
One Palm Hill is positively beautiful. It is brilliantly maintained and Carol was always a phone call away and quickly and kindly remedied any concerns that we had. The location is ideal. Get yourself a loaf of cinnamon raisin bread from Governor's Harbour Bakery, toast some up every morning and you'll be set for the day!"

"A great place for families
We stayed here over spring break in March of '18 and we had a a fantastic experience. I give it FIVE STARS!

Why do you want to stay at One Palm Hill? Here are a few reasons.

1 - The home is an ideal set-up for families as I brought my 3 kids (ages 14, 11, and 8). My wife and I obviously had the master, my daughter had a room to herself and the two boys shared a room. Plenty of space. The pool is really great for an evening swim and there is a great stock of movies and a Wii for the evenings.

2 - The home is well stocked with supplies. Many of the homes we have rented through the years are sorely lacking in this area. Not so here - plenty of cookware, cooking utensils, etc. There were a couple of "beach books" that aided our daily task of adventuring to the unknown.

3 - The home is perfectly located on the island. Being located a mere 2 minutes from "downtown" Govenors Harbour, you were perfectly situated to reach all of the "must go" beaches, popular restaurants, and site-seeing. If we were in Rainbow, Rock Sound, etc. - we would be less centrally located and the drive each day would be that much longer.

4 - The homes comes with Carol! Carol is your caretaker for the week, if an issue should arise. We had a couple of items here and there that we needed help with and Carol was so friendly and responsive helping us. We felt like she was part of the family.

I usually take 2 - 4 trips a year stateside and almost always rent a home. One Palm Hill was my first international rental and it was a great experience working with the owners and the house itself is up there as one of our favorites."

"Beautiful and restful
One Palm Hill was a great rental very clean and comfortable. We enjoyed visiting different beaches and eating at Tippys. And we will definitely go back. "

Great Place , Great location , walking distance to the Beach"

"Fantastic house on a wild beauty of an island
An immaculately presented, beautiful house close to deserted pink beaches and the friendlier of welcomes. Excellent transport and wonderful assistance from everyone we met. I would thoroughly recommend this house."
Jan 23, 2018 - Katharine L., London, London



"One Palm Hill
We enjoyed the rental very much. Fit our group of 4 really well. We thought the caretaker would check in on us at least once but didn't. We were surprised about some of the supplies that we would have had to buy if we ran out."
