Outstanding ocean view from the house. Snorkeling from the beach is amazing. The inside of the house is larger then what the photo showed. We had a great time and Jim was very helpful prior and during our stay letting us know of different areas to visit on the island.

Location was great- the most beautiful beach we saw on the island. Had an issue with the AC the first night, the care taker was super responsive and came right out and took care of it. Look forward to going back in the future!

A slice of heaven
The house and the location were perfect! It’s so spacious and open. The view from the patio is so beautiful. A bit of a hike down to the beach, it was good exercise. The caretaker, Art, was very helpful and Jim the owner was always very responsive to any questions we had.

Wonderful stay!
Our family of four spent a week at DaVilla and absolutely loved it. The house is located in a beautiful quiet area, was very clean, and has everything you need. The beach hut offers shade on those hot afternoons and the patio at the house is the perfect spot for having your first cup of coffee. We felt like it was really easy to get over to the Caribbean side on days that the Atlantic was a bit rough. And on the days that the Atlantic was calm, DaVilla was the best place to be by far. Will definitely stay here again!! Five stars all the way.

Great property and location
House was better than advertised. Big open spaces, access to beautiful, expansive and private beach. Obvious pride of ownership, not just an investment property. Terrific central location on the island, but outside town, gave us the best of both worlds. Great communication, caretaker stopped by, and the owner called us from the US. Had friends staying at Cocodimama, Unicorn Cay, and Squire's Estates. All nice but we were glad we were at Da Villa and would stay there again.

Amazing home and location!
I don't think we could have chosen a better home for our 8 day stay. Pictures and descriptions are accurate. The location was very central and convenient to anything on the island. The beach at the house was easily one of the best out of all we visited, and we did a lot of beach sight seeing! It is just stunning. The owner was very easy to communicate with, as was Art, the manager. Everything about our stay was 5 stars. We will be back, and wouldn't stay anywhere else.

Property was as advertised. Kitchen had everthing we needed (we cooked in mostly). Great view and beach, with Cocodimomma beach on the leeward side only 2 miles away for windy days.Food and beverage stores about 10 minutes away. We go to the islands once or twice a year for the past 18 years and this place (house and Island) rates in our top two.

Beautiful location. Best on Eleuthera
We have stayed at a few VRBOs on Eleuthera and this was the best by far. The beach that it’s located on has beautiful snorkeling and is a lovely beach for walking each morning. The home is in such an amazing location to restaurants, the best beaches and Governors Harbour. The layout is perfect. The kitchen is set up for relaxing with family while making dinner and watching the beautiful sunset each night. Plenty of everything: towels, a cooler, beach chairs, kitchen pots, pans, dishes. We spent all day exploring Eleuthera and were able to kick back every night in the comfortable, spacious home. Thank you for sharing DaVilla.

Beautiful, beach property!!
DaVilla was much more than expected! The pictures do not do justice to this place. Jim’s home is sooo spacious and the beach is absolutely incredible. The house was very clean, tons of room, couches are comfy, kitchen is stocked, the patio is large, and the view is spectacular. I have absolutely zero complaints or anything negative to say about this property. The property manager was was prompt in answering questions. If you like snorkeling, there’s great reef right off the shore. I will choose DaVilla every chance I get!

Awesome location and house!
Da Villa did not disappoint. This location and house could not have been more perfect for our family. The views from the patio, the ocean, stars at night, the beach, Da Hut on the beach, was the full package. The house is as described, very spacious with everything you need. Shopping is right down the road in GH. You are about mid island, so not a bad drive to the north or south. Art and Jim were very responsive for anything you might need. Also, the garage apartment looks very accommodating for a couple with or without a child. Has everything, full kitchen and bath. We did not rent it this time but will the next. Already planning our next trip!

Billion dollar view from the sofa
A thousand words won’t do justice to Da Villa’s location overlooking a beautiful, lonely, white sand beach on the Atlantic. It was our third trip to Eleuthera, the place to go when you want a stretch of sand all to yourself, and neither Da Villa nor its beach disappointed. The house is spacious and nicely set up for two couples each to enjoy their own master suite and time together in the kitchen/living room in between. The patio is also just as pictured and a great place to soak up the stars and watch cruise ships cross on the horizon. Island life can include small bugs that bite when the breeze slows down, so come prepared. The reward at Da Villa is a comfortable home on a world class beach.

Relaxing & Beautiful Stay at Da Villa!
Great location right on the beach, you can't beat the views and the house is immaculate! With large rooms and many amenities, it was perfect for the two of us because we love our privacy. The 2 bedrooms each had their own bath with the living/kitchen space between the 2 bedrooms. Ideal for a family or 2 couples. Great location to get into Governor's Harbour or a trip to the northern part of the island. Jimmie is a great host giving us information before the trip and checking in afterwards. We also rented a car from Art, the caretaker, which made it easy to get around as soon as we landed. This is our 4th trip to Eleuthera and a house directly on the beach is the only way to go. We barely saw anyone else all week and the shade from the hut on the beach was perfect for getting out of the sun for a while. Thanks for another great Eleuthera experience!

Amazing Location
We arrived at GHB Airport and had a quick drive to Davillas. The property is easy to find and the view is breath taking. We loved the hut on the beach. The outdoor shower was an added bonus. We were concerned the waves would be too big for my grand kids, but the waves were just right. Download a tide chart before you arrive, that helped determine which beaches we visited. The kitchen is well equipped for cooking and has a large fridge to fit all your food and Kaliks. There were plenty of towels for the beach and bathroom use. There is also a cooler and beach chairs, if you need them. The chairs came in handy for our beach hopping days. Must appreciated. At the time of our visit there was a large dumpster at the end of the driveway, it made it a little more difficult to navigate in/out, but it was manageable. Our only negative comment is there are no curtains on the bedroom doors, this made me feel uneasy at night (maybe too many scary movies). Not a deal breaker, just my preference. We used Burrows, East & Final, and Eleuthera Supply for any shopping needs. We heard Island Farm is great for fresh veggies and fruits. Our favorite was Burrows. Our favorite beach (besides Davillas) was Cocodimama (5 minute drive and excellent for small kids and great shade). If you are looking for a house on a great beach, centrally located, with easy access to other beaches - look no further. Davillas has everything you need. The photos do not do it justice.

Jim's hammock is the world's most beautiful place
We spent 5 days at Da Villa and loved it. The views from the huge terrace and from the hammock are unquestionably among the best of all of Eleuthera's homes: the view isn't simply open and "boring" but you get the shade, sound, and beauty of so many well-kept palm trees framing the water, it's breathtaking. On most days we had 20 mph winds and above (up to 25mph), and the swaying and rustling trees make for a spectacular display. Nary a bug that bit, it was too windy. You can swim on this gorgeous but sheltered-feeling beach in any weather - the waves never get too high and you just walk right in without water shoes (and without a bathing suit, if you are so inclined!). Bring water shoes to climb across rocks and then you can walk on this beach for miles. It was too windy to snorkel but bring your gear - the reefs are right there. Arthur the caretaker is a lovely and interesting person who patiently answered the many questions I had about the people and history of this island and from whom we had rented a car. Jim, the owner, was staying above the garage at the other end of the property during our stay (btw, the front yard is gorgeous as well, a large grove full of beautiful species of palm trees giving lots of dappled shade.) Jim's a riot, looks like a well-groomed pirate, and is super friendly, helpful, and very fun to talk to. The house is sturdy, large, bright, super clean, and very functional with a huge corner sofa and a large kitchen equipped with all the cooking gear you need and sharp knives. (Could use another reading lamp and maybe a small desk!) We never ate out because I always wanted to be in my hammock in the late afternoons and evenings. We had brought in some frozen meat and cheese in our suitcase, and on our way down from North Eleuthera airport we bought $150 worth of produce at Hearty Mow Farm right on Queen's Highway in Rainbow Bay and were more or less set for the week. The owner, LeFleur?, is a wonderful guy who served us (instant) coffee and his wife's coconut cake when we stopped to say goodbye on our way back to the airport. Island Farm is closer to Da Villa and very nice, too. Le Deck a few steps down the beach across the rocks looked fun but was always closed. Bring ground coffee! We'll be back.

Perfect!
From the moment you reach to top of the driveway you are greeted with the most spectacular view of the property landscape and amazing beachfront. Down the stairs to a fantastic mostly secluded beach with private hut! We swam at least 6 times a day!The house is exactly as described and offered everything we needed. Waking up to the sound of the oven and view was a memory we will not forget. Spent a lot of time just reflecting and watching the oceans ever changing colors. We went and explored the entire island with day trips to Harbor Islands and Spanish Wells, which were very lovely but really pales in comparison when you return to DaVilla and realize you already are at one of the best locations on the island! So we spent as much time at the house and beach. We also love the manicured front lawn and spent lots of time in the hammock.The house is in the middle of the island so it perfect for going either direction for day trips. Lastly, do go to the docks at governor's harbor or Rock Sound and buy fresh lobster or fish around 3pm to barbecue at the house. Fish fry was fun also. We will definitely be back! Best house and location for the price don’t pass this up if your days are available! also.

Amazing View
Driving up the driveway to this property, as you park your car, you are immediately struck with one of the most amazing views you're ever gonna see. The house looks directly over the Atlantic Ocean, on top of a 25 to 30 foot bluff, with coral reefs down below you and a gorgeous little beach. The house is very clean and spacious, with all of the amenities. The porch was our favorite place to hang out as it had comfortable chairs and overlooked the ocean and the beach. We will definitely come back to Davilla the next time we come back to Governors Harbor.

Beautiful views. Private beach. 10 minutes away from Governors Harbour and James Cistern. Caribbean beaches are just down the road. The home is larger than the pictures appear. Great location for island exploration. Easy road leading to the house. We rented a minivan, but needed an SUV to access some of the beaches we wanted to explore. Thankful for the generator. We were never wo power.

Large open rooms
Of course this rating, as most, is due to personal preference. The property was very clean which is extremely important to us. It has large open rooms which we found to be relaxing. A large patio right off the living -dining room had a wonderful view of the ocean. Even though there are neighbors, the foliage on either side blocks out the view of them so you are still secluded. We appreciated the beach chairs and the beach towels so we did not have to purchase. The only negative for me was the wind. This side of the island had higher wind gusts than the other side. This also made the water rougher with larger waves. My husband was perfectly fine with this but I prefer the calmer water of the Caribbean side. But we enjoyed going to some of the different and unique beaches that the island has so not an issue anyway. However, the higher winds also made for tranquil sounds to fall asleep too. Again, totally a personal preference. Overall, we quite enjoyed this property and would recommend it to others.
