We (my wife and myself) stayed 30 days in Jan/Feb 2024 in Barbi's beach house. A great place and the response of Barbi (we had questions on minor things) was unbelievable. She reacts within minutes or even seconds. The house was clean, water pressure was great, not even one time we had elecitricity items. We can recomment this villa to everyone (although a bit difficult, we want to come back and this place is very popular, so hard to book...). Especially the beach on the left is unbelievable. No houses, no people, like a deserted island. We had our portable bbq and have eaten there serveral times. Thanks Barbi!!!!

We rented a car from the caretaker (Byron) at the North Eleuthera Airport and found the house easily. The driveway is steep, but we made it with no issues. When we got out of the car our initial reaction was "WOW!" since you can see the ocean as you walk in. We found the house clean and ready for us. We unloaded groceries and unpacked to get down to the beach before it got too late. You may want to workout a bit on the stairmaster before you arrive to be ready for the 60 steps to the beach. You will climb them many times a day as the beach in front of the house was great. We spent a lot of time at "our" beach, but also at Alabaster Bay Beach and Navy Beach, both of which are very close. We often ate lunch out (when we went out, but you don't have to) and made dinner at the house. The kitchen was well appointed and made meal preparation easy. We lost power for about 12 hours one evening as most of Governor's Harbor was out too. No big deal, the refrigerator stayed cold and city water allowed the toilets/sinks to operate. Make it a point to check out the moon and stars when it is mostly clear, they are incredible. If the wind does die down, be prepared for some small biting gnats. They are easily repelled with a Deet based bugspray or bug repellant clothing. They are not an issue if the wind is blowing. We used the washer and dryer and they worked well. Byron was very helpful. Overall, we had a great time at Bootsie's Beach Break, we just have to figure out when we can return!

This was our second time to Eleuthera, but first at this house. We were not disappointed. The house is relatively new, nicely laid out, and in good condition. It was stocked well with everything we needed for the beach. The house is located on a really nice and secluded stretch of beach - very few houses, very few people, and you can walk a long way. There was minimal trash on the beach, and the water is crystal clear with a nice sandy bottom and small waves. The location is great for access to restaurants and groceries, being about halfway between Governors Harbor and James Cistern. Driving on Eleuthera is always a challenge so the location helped. I guess my only knock is that the deck chairs are uncomfortable and difficult to adjust. Otherwise I would highly recommend.

This place is in an amazing location mid way down the island. Snorkel equipment for all 4 of us, beach chairs towels and a cooler for our day trips made our days on the island the ultimate relaxing experience. The views from inside as well as on the deck were breathtaking. The house , kitchen and grill as well as internet service all worked great. I would highly recommend Barbara's place to anyone looking for a very relaxing getaway. This place is ideal for two couples with plenty of privacy with bedrooms and bathrooms on opposite ends of the house.

The home is amazing - waking up and looking at the ocean was awesome! Never saw more than two people on the beach, walk around the corner and walk for miles without seeing anyone!

My wife and I spent a wonderful week here and we were thrilled with the amenities and the beautiful views. We traveled the entire length of Eleuthera during our visit and the location of this villa is our favorite place on the island. You will most likely have the beach to yourself as I only saw a few people during our whole week. We will definitely stay here again when we return. Thanks Again

The property was fantastic - and perfect for a beach getaway. The views from the house are truly spectacular. There were ample beach towels, floats, snorkel gear and coolers, so we didn't need to bring anything. We will definitely be back to this property! Thanks to Barbara and Byron for a wonderful stay.

The property sits up high and presents a stunning view if the ocean and beach. Only saw a few people at a time up and down the beach. Loved the open center concept. Having full kitchen and a grill that lit quickly and easily every time made preparing meals and snacks a breeze. The beds were quite noisy as others have noted, and the lounge chairs are about ready to be replaced. The paloma on the beach looked like it could have been a good place to while away the time during the day, but the vegetation hasn't been cut back in a while. The property is probably best for a couple or small family (2 bedrooms). The outside showers were an invigorating treat after coming up from the beach. The complimentary snorkel equipment was much appreciated and used to explore the rocks and offshore reef. Very private, secluded and relaxing. Exactly what was needed on this vacation. Enjoyed our stay, would stay again
