Newly Remodeled Home on Calm Caribbean w/Sunset Views, Snorkeling, Generator!

Welcome to “Ware-A-Dise”. This 3-bedroom 2- bath has just been completely remodeled. It sits directly on the Caribbean shore and enjoys spectacular ocean and sunset views from most rooms. There is excellent snorkeling right behind the house. Entry into the water is gradual and easy.

Enter into the great room, which enjoys sweeping ocean views through a wall of glass sliders. The living and dining areas enjoy these views, as does the stunning modern kitchen, finished in granite and stainless steel. The kitchen is fully equipped with a gas range, French door refrigerator, dishwasher, and microwave. There is a separate laundry off the great room.

Ware-A-Dise has three bedrooms:
The master bedroom has king bed, an ocean view, a full en-suite bath with a walk-in shower, and direct private access to the patio.
The second bedroom also has a king bed, an ocean view, and direct private access to the patio.
The third bedroom has day bed which converts to a queen.
These two bedrooms share a full bath with a shower/tub combination.

There is also a lovely outdoor shower, enclosed for privacy, with hot and cold water.

Ware-A-Dise has some of the best outdoor spaces on the island. There is a large screened porch with sweeping ocean views, furnished for both lounging and dining. Beyond it are two large sun decks. The lower deck has stairs leading to a path to the waterfront, 40 feet away. The water here is typically as calm as a lake with a very gentle grade entering the water. The bottom is rocky right at the beginning, then becomes sandy. The coral behind the house provides excellent snorkeling. On a recent day of snorkeling I saw tangs, angelfish, wrasses, groupers, snappers, bar jacks, barracudas, grunts, spadefish, and many other species I could not identify.

Amenities at Ware-A-Dise include AC throughout, super-fast Starlink WIFI, cable TV with smart TV for streaming, whole-house back-up generator, landline phone for local and U.S. calling, outdoor gas grill, 4 beach chairs, cooler, beach towels, and beautiful sunsets every day!

The town of Palmetto Point, a 3 minute drive from the house, has several small grocery stores and restaurant/bars. Governors Harbour, the main town on the island, is 10 or 12 minutes by car from the property. Governors Harbour has grocery stores, restaurants, liquor stores, two banks with ATMs, a bakery, gift shops, a dive shop, and a medical clinic. It has a nice little collection of 19th century homes and churches overlooking a picturesque harbor. You can buy fresh fish and lobster every afternoon from fisherman at the town dock. Friday night Fish Fry in Governors Harbour is a street/beach party that brings together all the tourists and locals with food, drink, and dancing in the street. You won’t want to miss it.

Gorgeous Views!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This property was perfect. We loved the views from the family/dining room, the screened-in porch and the large decks. The grounds were beautiful. The house was well appointed and upgraded and very clean. We had use of umbrellas, boogy boards, beach chairs, Frisbee, etc. This house has a generator that makes all the difference since the power does go out on a regular bases. Only one time the generator didn't kick in right away and Wallace responded very quickly and it was back up and running in no time. The only thing that would have made it better would be having access to kayaks to enjoy the water right out our back door; we could have rented some. We enjoyed Ten Bay and French Leave beaches, a day on Harbour Island, Tippy's, 1648, the Farm Stand just down the road south about 1/2 mile, Norma's Gift Shop, and the Da Perk. The beaches, oh my, beautiful!!! Justin Pinder rented us an SUV and his service was spot on.

Great House, Great Location
This newly renovated house is perfect for multiple couples or families traveling to Eleuthera. With its central location of South Palmetto Point, we easily traveled to both ends of this beautiful island. With amazing beaches within minutes and snorkeling right off the rocky shores of the property, you never need to travel far if you are just wanting down time and relaxation. Stores are easily available within a 15 minute drive to buy necessities or souvenirs. Several local restaurants in Palmetto Point are great choices for Dinners or easily go into Governors Harbor for a little higher end meals. The house itself is beautiful with everything you need for your stay and more. Loved the fact that it has a generator, as the electric goes out frequently on the island. It went out several times during our stay and we were happy to have a second source of power to keep us comfortable at all times. The communication was great from start to finish and everyone answered any and all questions I had quickly. Two issues we had with the property was the lack of deck furniture on the two beautiful decks. We were a party of 4 and with only 2 loungers on the back decks it made it difficult to enjoy such an amazing view. The other was hot water in the bathrooms. It may be an easy fix but we did not have consistent hot water for showers. Two minor issues that do not take away from the beauty of this property. Highly recommend staying here!

Best Appointed House on Island
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I have stayed on the island more than a dozen times and this home was the best constructed and most thoughtfully appointed house of all. It had plenty of everything I needed, and none of the extra stuff that I didn't. I usually spend the first afternoon of my stay decluttering the counters and coffee tables of "knick-knack" style decor to simplify the space in most homes. That was not necessary here. Everything was clean and practical, and nothing took away from the amazing view, which was unobstructed from the kitchen, living area, and both main bedrooms. I was blown away to find the home had a garbage disposal: something I have never had on the island, but very useful since you want to make sure you get rid of your waste as securely as possible due to island bugs, which leads to my next point. The sliding doors were SO substantial. This may seem trivial, but on an island teeming with no-see-ums and other bugs, this ensured that the home remained completely bug free and that I could enjoy the screened in patio without concern. Further, having a generator is becoming a necessity on island with power outages becoming more frequent, and that did not disappoint! One of the most delightful bonuses was the cold water dispenser and 5 gallon jugs waiting for me! Since you must drink filtered water on the island, 5 gallon jugs are the most economical option, but they don't fit nicely in the fridge (if you like cold water). The dispenser is just like what you might see in office, allowing you to fill a cup with cold water on demand. The house even had Yetis & lids for taking down to the water! Again, small but such thoughtful amenities that made the stay superior. The house had quality beach chairs & umbrellas that made it easy to pack up for other beaches, which you'll need to do if you want a sandy beach. You can still swim here, but as the listing says, it is rocky. My one minor complaint is that there is no real couch, rather (very fancy) recliner style chairs.

Great Vacation
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We just got back from a great week long trip in Eleuthera. The house was perfect for our family of 5. We had absolutley no issues with the house. Check-in was easy, no problems while we were there, and check-out was easy. The location was great, central to the island overall and close to Governor's Harbor. We got to a ton of different beaches, restaurants, and just spent time relaxing at the house. I would recommend this house to friends and we would stay there again.

Ware a Dise
Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Ware a Dise is a wonderful place to stay on Eleuthera. It was spotlessly clean, one of the more well appointed and fully stocked homes we have stayed at! The generator was an added bonus as we did lose power a few times and it kicked right on. Highly recommend this rental!
