Third time staying here, and it's as great as ever

Third time staying here, and it's as great as ever
5 of 5
Submitted: May 6, 2013 Stayed: April 2013
What more can I say here that hasn't already been said? Probably not much, but I'll try! This is my third time at Whel-Appointed in 18 months (yes, I love the beach!). The house is amazing, and David and Michele are a dream to work with. The house is clean, quiet, perfectly laid out, and has all of the touches from home -- luxurious linens and towels, a well-equipped kitchen with all appliances, a/c (which I love when I sleep), beach towels/chairs, snorkeling gear, and so much more. It's truly paradise! I hope you choose to stay here and experience as much magic as we did.

We stayed for 2 weeks of pure bliss. We had never been to the Carribean and I can now say we are spoiled for good! Owners David and Michelle provided a luxurious rental home I would call a mansion. The details in the stucture, the furniture, the extra's in the kitchen were all more than pictures could show. Their write ups were very helpful in knowing what to pack and what would be provided by the home owners.

The home was very clean, neat and well maintained. The beds were extremly comfortable as we drifted off to sleep with the windows blowing in the cool evening breeze. The best part for me was in making our decision to rent from David. He was so accomadating with his quick responses to all my questions and concerns. He was very organized with Edgar and Wallace available to help out while on our trip. We ended up renting a car from Edgar who I must say was so friendly and helpful. As we arrived during xmas holidays and our flights were 4 hours late leaving us arriving in the dark, and too late to pick up our rental car, Edgar came the next morning picked us up and took us shopping!! What a wonderful man!

The beach was totally fabulous. We walked everyday down the beach meeting other tourists who were friendly and with stories of places to visit. We rented a car and went up to the northern tip enjoying Harbour Island for the day. You must take the drive it is well worth it, the food the atmosphere, the people...love it!!!

The local people were fantastic and always friendly. We went to the fish fry on Friday which David suggested we go and were not dissapointed as we danced in the streets and enjoyed local food and drink.

We celebrated New Years Eve at The Beach House, only 3 doors down and danced the night away to a band, great food, drinks, people and even fireworks!

Being from Canada and enjoying our holiday in the sun we couldn't have picked a more beautiful setting. We thoroughly enjoyed the patio, covered porches that wrap around the house giving every opportunity to enjoy the outdoors. The only down side for us were the sand flea bites that began to come out on us the last few days we were there and then stayed ichy and awful for the next 3 weeks we were home. This is not to take away from our fantastic holiday...just watch sitting close to seaweed on the beach.

David and Michelle you were so wonderful to work with and have as owners who were very tuned into their guests. I appreciate all you help and would love to visit again
Owner's Response: The holiday season is such a special time for family and so it was especially important to Michele and I that you have a magical experience while staying in our home. I really enjoyed working with you and it is so good to hear that both Wallace and Edgar took good care of you during our trip; this has been our experience too. We are glad to hear you danced in the streets at the fish fry - so good to cut loose every once in a while! And New Years at the Beach House; very special. We hope that the memories of your trip take you through the coming months and who knows; maybe you will return yet again to the beautiful island of Eleuthera; if yes, we are here to help you....it is our pleasure! The mansion awaits!!! Take good care, David and Michele

I've been to Eleuthera at least 10 times and this is without a doubt one of nicest rental properties on the island, if not the world! The value for this kind of luxury cannot be beat. There was so much thought and detail put into this house, that I wished it was my own home and that I could live there forever! From the super comfy beds (Tommy Bahama bedding), to the towel warming racks in the bathrooms, flat screen TV's in each room, and extremely well-stocked gourmet kitchen with wonderful appliances, this place was a dream come true. The location can't be beat. The house is located on the prettiest road in Eleuthera - Banks Road - and directly across from the stunning French Leave pink sand beach. The best part is that it is a VERY short walk to my favourite restaurant and hang-out spot - the Beach House restaurant. I'd head over there for lunch or a drink almost everyday - great food dining in or takeout and great live band on Thursday nights. The owners, David and Michele, were terrific to deal with...a true pleasure. I would not hesitate to recommend this place to anyone with extremely high standards. Please feel free to check out the video I posted of Whel-Appointed (and the footpath to the beach) on youtube (search RangoonGirl). Thanks, David and Michele, for opening up your stunning home to be rented! What a treat!

Owner's Response: Wow! What a fantastic review; David and I really appreciate the feedback! We are especially pleased that the house met your expectations and then some. I love cooking in the kitchen and it sounds like you enjoyed it as well. The Beach House is one of our favorite spots also and it is great to have such a nice place within walking distance; wonderful for lunch or an afternoon cocktail break directly from the beach chair! Thank you again for the kind words and it was our pleasure working with you on your vacation plans. Take care, Michele and David

Wow! Did we have the best time in Eleuthera! The house was absolutely beautiful! So glad that we booked it! So much room to run around! All the appliances are modern and worked wonderfully! The catwalk (roof deck) was a great place to hang out while enjoying the beautiful daily sunsets and watch the stars. The patio in back on 1st floor was a great idea! We discovered that it was a great 'hot spot' to hang out, and to get warmed up when there was a bit more wind in front or for tanning! It was a tad windy while we were there - surf was having a 'wicked rage' (as some of the locals called it!), but it did not affect our stay at all! Beaches are as promised - usually empty, private and BEAUTIFUL! Never got tired of looking at those beautiful tourquoise blues! Took the the short path to beach across from house, and in minutes we were on the beach! Edgar (car rental guy) was just great, and gave us some important tips once we got there. Getting around the island was pretty easy and most of the time pretty empty! Tried to even get lost, and roads still dropped us out on familiar roads! Absolutely great. Honestly can't think of anything at the house that was missing. We had a few hiccups with the internet, but it did work better as the week progressed. We knew that internet service in the Bahamas is 'iffy' at times, so we didn't mind. The house is right down the street from the Beach House/Tapas Bar (walking distance) and the food was great! Tippy's is about a mile down the road, and also great food. Got to check out the Bakery in town - and when you go, remember to place your order for homemade pies in the morning to pick up later - YUM - definitely worth it! This house is in a perfect location - an hour or so drive going either South or North, and you can reach many destinations. Wallace was awesome and answered the few questions we had while we were there quickly. The locals were wonderful and very friendly. All in all - we just loved this place, and hope to go back soon. Seriously...if we had a few extra weeks of vacation each year, we would come back EVERY YEAR! So thank you for allowing us to rent your place! One of the best vacations we've had in a long time! We've already been recommending it to others!

Whel appointed is a fabulous house in a little slice of Paradise called "Eleuthera". David and Michelle has made sure that everything you need is there, even snorkeling equipment. The people they work with for car rental and caretaker of the house are outstanding. The people of the island are so very friendly and helpful. We visited a couple of great restaurants' Tippy's and The Beach House.

Would recommend this vacation to everyone. For a week away from the hustle and bustle, this is the place. The Beach is lovely and not crowded.
Owner's Response: We are so glad to hear that you enjoyed your visit. Eleuthera is such a special place to us and it is great to hear that you had such a nice time. There are so many beaches to visit and little places to try local food, local bands and entertainment, etc. that we hope you decide return and seek out other adventures. David and I are still exploring after six years of visiting the island! Thank you for taking the time to let us know about your good experience staying at Whel Appointed! Best Regards, Michele and David
