About this house rental

Welcome to Gumbo Limbo! We are located on the prestigious Banks Road of Governors Harbour, the most sought-after location on Eleuthera. This area is called the Golden Mile, a stretch of island with pink sand beaches, patch reefs and great restaurants and cafes. We are 5 minute walk from famous Tippy's beachfront restaurant and bar, and a 3 minute drive from the beautiful and charming town of Governor's Harbour, where you will find grocery stores, restaurants, coffee shops, liquor stores and gas stations, along with many lovely historic homes.

We have just completed out new saltwater pool! There is a fee of $400 per week to heat the pool.

Gumbo Limbo is a short 150 yard walk down our deeded path to an ideal beach with clear blue water and soft pink sand. If you like walking the beach, you can head for Tippy's restaurant to eat or venture further to Club Med Beach or Culmer's Rocks.

WE HAVE A DISCOUNTED RATE FOR STAYS OF 7 NIGHTS OR LONGER.

The house was perfectly located, close to Governors Harbor and great beaches. The size of the house is great and very comfortable. The pool is wonderful. The internet is extremely unreliable and therefore the TV also doesn't work often. The kitchen is well stocked. Having a generator was extremely beneficial

Our family of 5 had an amazing stay at Gumbo Limbo! The property was amazing- better than the pictures. Well stocked kitchen and tons of towels and the pool was large. Our kids spent hours in it. The beach within walking distance was one of our favourites. Both the on site property manager, Carol, and Pam- who helped us all the way until we arrived were top notch. Would highly recommend location and amenities. We will be back to this island and will stay here again.
