Been there twice; planning on a 3rd trip!

Randy_in_VA Staunton, VA
Review Submitted: April 28, 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
I was there 12/06 and 04/09; We are planning on a 2010 trip and if the kids bail out, we are going back in a heartbeat! I found the owners to be VERY responsive, the house to be pristine and the surrounds and beaches rate 50 on a scale of 1 to 10. The owners recent additions of the wood chairs on the deck are the perfect touch to relax.

The kitchen is perfectly equipped as well. If you need entertainment of the resort type, you should consider another Island; but if you need peace and quiet with astounding beauty, this place is for you. If you scan the travel forums, you'll find but one complaint on the property; the remaining dozen or so of us will swear by it and all are dedicated return visitors. If you are considering a honeymoon there - Do It! The journal in the house recounts several honeymoons there where the local folks helped in the celebration, yet afforded the honeymooners the complete privacy that's native to the location.

Ah! The house decoration... I have stayed in several 4 star hotels that did not have the quality of linens afforded to guests at Tropical Heights. For the volume of people traveling through the house, that is impressive!

We were enamored with Tropical Heights enough, that another guest who had complaints about the location, commented that the fins were tore up - yes, it was true - that's alot of blue water, and they had the miles on them - we replaced them... So, another amenity is brand new fins...

To the owners: Thank you for opening the house to us - It IS paradise!! Oh! Get to know the caretaker "IJ" - He is great!
Recommended for:  Adventure Seekers, Girls Getaway, Tourists without a Car, Romantic Getaway
Owner's Response: Actually, trying, unsuccessfully I might add, to hold back my tears after reading your review. YOU are the reason we opened up our little piece of paradise that we treasure so much!

And, YOU are most certainly welcome anytime and as a returning guest will receive additional perks! We'll talk!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review!

May God bless and keep you, make His face shine upon you and give you peace!!!

Not the best Eleuthera has to offer

Jane and John Doe San Francisco
Review Submitted: March 10, 2009 Date of Stay: February 2009
This place is private and has good views; however, the place is tiny and the owners are not responsive and do not tell the truth about the amenities. They claim to have television, but they don't. TV Owners also refused to answer calls and emails. There is no dining table at which to eat a meal --either inside or outside-- and the couches are extrememely uncomfortable,

There are numerous other places, for the same amount of money, which are equally private, closer to the beach, on the island of Eleuthera. We recommend that travelers try one of these places for an enjoyable stay on the island.
Owner's Response: This review is absolutely incorrect. Our description is spot on and we, actually show pictures of the inside of our beach house which verifies our statements are absolutely correct! I would challenge anyone to look at our website AND our pictures as you will find we are very forthcoming with all our information. We clearly state the size of our beachhouse along with showing we have an 8 foot bar by which our guest are very happy to eat along with an outdoor table and chairs! There are,also, pictures of the 8' bar as well as the outdoor table and chairs! I am not sure how they could miss that? The review is not actually correct in stating we have a TV either. Of Course, we do and also have pictures to prove this as well. The satellite was down which prevented regular TV viewing although we also have at least 75 DVD's and Videos when the satelite goes out as this happens on this island periodically. As for not returning their calls, I was having surgery for cancer. I would hope reasonable individuals would certainly understand this.

We have never, not even once, received a bad review and would be glad to provide numerous positive references on our beach house.
