Overview & Photos

Gallery

Early birds and night owls alike will find their bliss at Windchat Villas. Made up of two adjacent villas, Sunrise and Sunset, this luxury estate has exceptional ocean views as well as 250 feet of gorgeous private pink-sand beach frontage. Windchat has total privacy on 2.5 acres of land.

Windchat is a self-contained mini-resort, with plenty to do for guests of all ages (and activity levels). Down at the beach, have a swim in the warm water, take the kayaks or stand-up paddleboards out to explore, or bring back honeymoon memories with a sunset stroll along the sand. You can walk for 3 miles on our beach. Spot cruise ships from the porches, flip on the sound system as you stretch out in a lounger by the heated infinity pool or challenge everyone to shuffleboard, foosball, ping-pong or even tennis, pickleball, or basketball on the private court. The manicured grounds offer a wide selection of native plants and fruits. When the sun begins to sink, rinse off in one of the outdoor showers and heat up the barbecue for dinner. The property also has six TVs for those who prefer to relax indoors.

Sunrise Villa:

Enter Sunrise Villa by way of the covered front veranda and you are instantly presented full stunning views of the ocean. A 20' cathedral ceiling is the crowning point of the room. The dining area comfortably seats 6 and shares the panoramic ocean views enjoyed from all areas of the home. Just off of the dining area is the kitchen that has everything you need for a full course meal or a picnic at the beach. Sliding glass doors invite you to an oceanside deck with outdoor seating areas, waterside dining and stairs winding gently to the sea. Sunrise Villa (like Sunset Villa) has a laundry room.

The Sunrise Villa has three bedrooms. The master bedroom has a king bed and an en-suite full bath, and it overlooks the ocean. The second bedroom also has an ocean view. It has two single beds that can be converted into a king bed and a bathroom just outside the room. The third bedroom is a recreation room with a sofa bed that can be used as a bedroom. This room is on the second floor and is equpped with cushioned love seats, board games, and television and audio equipment. It has an entertainment/media alcove which contains the full-size sleeper sofa, and it has a washroom with a half bath.

Sunset Villa:

The Sunset Villa also has three bedrooms. It is situated about 50 feet from the Sunrise Villa and is connected by a walkway and an outdoor seating area. The lower level of this villa offers a wrap-around deck, living room, chef-style kitchen, dining area seating 10 guests, and a powder room. The lower level is furnished for outdoor dining as well, with a 10-seat outdoor dining table on the wrap-around deck. The upper level offers expansive views of the ocean and island, wrap around deck, one king bedroom with private bath, one queen bedroom with private bath, and a laundry room. Sunset Villa's third bedroom is on the ground level, and partially below grade at the back. It has its own entrance, so is very private. This bedroom has a queen bed and a full luxury en-suite bath with walk-in shower.

Amenities include AC throughout, WIFI throughout, satellite TV, heated pool, gas grill, tennis court, pickleball, basketball, shuffleboard, kayaks, paddle boards, ping pong, foosball, board games. The home has an on-demand generator and back-up water system. There are two sets of washer/dryers.

WindChat is a 10 minute walk down the beach to the restaurant and bar at Unique Village, and a 20 minute walk (or 2 minute drive) to La Bougainvillea. Tippy’s is a 5 minute drive. Governors Harbour, the main town, with restaurants, grocery stores, banks, and shops, is a 10 minute drive.

Kerry P. from Lake Havasu City, AZ US recommends this vacation rental.

This home is incredible, very clean, lots of towels, everything you need in the kitchens.
The only thing that people need to know is there are literally 100's of stairs to go anywhere on the property.

A guest from Oxford, MS US recommends this vacation rental.

Exceeded expectations! Two families with 5 young children for a week. The grounds and landscaping were amazing with tons of room. It’s like having your own mini resort. Houses are updated and clean, honestly exceeded expectations. There has obviously been much attention paid to this property. Pool, tennis court, all outdoor areas were in great shape. A/C worked great inside. Saw maybe four or five others around on the beach but most of the time there was nobody else. We had no problems at all. Delshire was super nice, helpful and informative. Would definitely recommend.

bobbi m. from Fayetteville, NY US recommends this vacation rental.

Our family of 11, age 4-70 spent a week at the Windchat property. There was plenty of room and we found the property outstanding for our active group. The beach is down 2 flights of stairs and is beautiful soft sand, the waves are 1-3 feet, a small child needs swimmies. There are beach toys and a palapa for shade. We asked for the pool to be heated , it also had floats and noodles. The tennis court and basketball court were great. Bring fresh tennis balls and your racquet if you are a real player. The kitchen has all the pots and pans and coffee maker etc. We brought in a chef 2 nights. There are a few close by restaurants which were very good, caution food prices are on the high side on the island. There are 2 washer and dryers. The property manager will help with anything that may come up. We had a terrific time and would surely recommend this home.

Our two families with 11 adults had a great stay at Windchat Villas. There are many things to keep everyone in the party occupied with loads of space to spread around. Clean and nicely decorate with amazingly gorgeous grounds maintained by Felix. Delshire was a very responsive and helpful property manager. Having a generator is important on Eleuthera and we kept it busy during our stay. Highly recommend this spot - you won't be disappointed!

A guest from Harrisonburg, VA United States recommends this vacation rental.

The photos don't do this property justice (and they are pretty great photos!) It's like having your own mini resort. Our group used the Sunset villa for dinner and the Sunrise villa for long morning coffees enjoying the gorgeous beach. We spent long days on the beach (which is one of the prettiest on the island), late afternoons in the pool, and had everything we needed to cook and enjoy our stay. Del, the property manager is amazing. We also hired Brenda and Patrick to cook for us twice during the week which was awesome! I was worried about the two separate houses but it was actually really nice. 10/10 would recommend.


Beautiful and relaxing. Wonderful property!

Kristy S. from Plainville, MA United States recommends this vacation rental.

Windchat is absolutely amazing. We visited for a week in March, a group of two families. The set up of the two houses is perfect.

Sunset is great because the two bedrooms on the second floor are separate from the downstairs kitchen/living area. This worked well because we hired an amazing cook for the week (Josh) and it allowed him to come and go without disturbing anyone and it kept the smells from cooking (fish, etc.) from stinking up the rest of the place - very thoughtful layout. There was an add'l bedroom on the lower level that we did not use.

Sunrise is beautiful for just that. The views are spectacular. It was perfection to wake up to watch the sunrise each morning from our deck which runs the entire length of the house. Having a washer/dryer in both houses was also key.

The pool is great to have for when the ocean has a strong surf (as it did about half the time we were there), as you still have the amazing ocean views. The tennis/pickleball/basketball court was also awesome to have available. Felix, the groundskeeper, was wonderful and brought us coconuts on a few occasions, which the kids thought was super cool and also showed them the soldier crabs that can be found in the brush. We had Wilmide come to the house one day and give massages on the Sunset deck which was perfection.

We would definitely come back. The only con was the amount of gnats/mosquitoes. They are BAD. Even with bug spray, half of our party left with hundreds of bites covering our entire bodies. They seemed to come out around 4pm each day, so we unfortunately ended up spending our evenings inside which was a bummer. The houses could use some updating, but it is all minor stuff (blinds missing, no USB outlets, etc.)

This is the perfect getaway for a truly relaxing vacation.

Pat R. from Grove, OK US recommends this vacation rental.

We had a group of 10 and we had all the space we could have possibly needed. The property and the views were amazing. We spent a lot of time at beach and the pool. The kitchen is stocked with anything you could need. The groundskeeper Felix opened coconuts for my grandson when he asked. We had Brenda and Patrick come in and cook dinner 2 nights and it was simply delicious. They are the sweetest people to just spend time with. Everything was just as pictured and would definitely go back!

A guest from New York, NY United States recommends this vacation rental.

Windchat Villas were absolutely incredible for our family of 8. Both buildings are well thought out in design, kitchen and its supplies are top notch, pool and beach are lovely. Sunset bedrooms have a completely different entrance from the main living area, making it nice to be able to gather and not worry about disturbing those sleeping. Delshire was responsive to our texts happy to recommend things to do in the area. Windchat is a slice of heaven!

harvey k. from new york, new york United States recommends this vacation rental.

My family (children and wives, grandchildren, sister) all stayed for a wonderful week. Although getting to the Bahamas (Health Pass,flight changes,etc.) created pre trip problems, once we arrived it was perfect! It is rare to say this, but everything was actually better than expected, and we expected a lot! Windchat is truly spectacular. From the beautiful lush gardens when you arrive to the setting overlooking the ocean. Wow. The two house set up, each with great views, rooms, and common areas, worked perfectly for us. The infinity pool, tennis court, and the steps down to a picturesque beach that no one seems to walk on, made everyone want to just stay and enjoy. Everyone we dealt with along the way added to the experience. Matt was hands on and always responsive from the start. Delshire and Felix on the property made sure everything was well maintained and moved smoothly. And Brenda and Patrick's cooking and personal generosity added to the experience. The owners were also very responsive and a pleasure to speak with, and thank you both for letting my family share your beautiful property. What else can I say, We just loved the entire experience.

Khalil M. from Soquel, CA US recommends this vacation rental.

Overall, our experience was fantastic. The pros: great service, easy, safe, absolutely stunning grounds, gorgeous views and clean. Cons: can be quite windy, but the other side of the island is a 10 min drive. Would be nice to have had drinking water provided, our 2 family group went through 30 single gallon containers in a week. Bottom line, if you can get over the sticker shock, it's a lovely place to stay for a larger group, recommended.
