I planned our family vacation at Wild Orchid house almost a year in advance, It was so worth the wait! Wild Orchid is a spectacular property. The house is so well appointed and so well stocked that we wanted for nothing. Beautiful furnishings inside and out. The pool and the easy access to the private like beach was awesome. We also loved the location being so close to the La Bougainvillea resort. Our teenagers liked spending time there where the staff was super friendly. We enjoyed several cocktail hours there! Wild Orchid is also located very close to great restaurants like Tippy's and the Buccaneer Club. Our family vacation week at Wild Orchid was simply an awesome experience! Can't wait for another family vacation in Eleuthera and no doubt Wild Orchid house will definitely be our first and only choice!

This house exceeded our expectations based upon the pictures. The house is extremely spacious and comfortable. The showers are amazing and the A/C works great. The pool and beach chairs are great and it is on a pink sand beach where you can take a long walk either direction. We would definitely stay here again. The house is close to good restaurants, grocery stores and other beaches.

The villa was even better than we expected! It's situation is stunning, right on the most beautiful beach. We didn't think we would use the hotel next door for much, but we ended up there everyday for one or two meals since Eleuthera was still pretty closed. The hotel staff are lovely and fun. Each bedroom and bathroom was very large and spotless. The living space is bigger than the photos show. We were VERY happy with everything at Wild Orchid and would stay again, but probably at a time when Eleuthera has more open. (There is construction going on behind the villa, but it did not bother us at all.)
