About this house rental

ANANDA IS UPDATED AND UNDER NEW OWNERSHIP! This beachfront estate is located on the prestigious Banks Road, just two miles from the town of Governors Harbour and walking distance down the beach to Tippy's famous beachfront restaurant and bar. Ananda has been featured on TMZ and in LIFE & STYLE Magazine.

The Ananda Estate consists of a two-bedroom main house and two detached pavilions. The three houses are set around a courtyard. The centerpiece of the courtyard is a 50 x 20 foot oceanfront heated infinity pool. It is flanked on one side by a vast 400-square-foot sitting area beautifully appointed with new outdoor furniture, and on the other side by a swim-up bar, a sitting area, and an outdoor kitchen equipped with an electric grill. There is also a gas grill on the terrace. A 12 x 8 foot Zen-inspired Buddha water fountain imported from Bali overlooks this magnificent pool area and bestows its serenity on the courtyard.

Beyond the pool is a spectacular mile-long pink-sand beach, pristine and usually deserted, with only a few other houses along the full length of it. The pink of the beach and amazing aqua and turquoise of the water greet your eye from virtually every room of this estate. There are multiple outdoor beds overlooking the beach that provide wonderful places to camp out for the day, evening or overnight. Enjoy the most amazingly bright stars you have ever seen.

To add to your experience, we have lots of outdoor sports equipment including bocce ball, cornhole, and croquet. For the waterfront, we provide kayaks and paddleboards, as well as a surf board for the reefs that are 200' from either side of the Ananda beach stairs. There is a links-style putting green in the front circle. We have Starlink super-fast internet, satellite TV with hundreds of channels and movies, and a selection of books and games. Ananda is our home, and we love to entertain, so we continue to add activities!

Entering the main house through the 10 x 6' wide swinging Balinese doorway, you are greeted by a Caesar-stone gallery with a fully retractable wall of glass facing the ocean on the other side. The open kitchen, to your right, features Miele appliances including a 36''refrigerator, Master Chef double oven, and glass cooktop with retractable hood. The kitchen is fully equipped with professional grade juicer, blender, Nespresso coffee machine, hotel grade cutlery, and dining ware by Fortessa.

The living area features Imported Balinese furniture and a 85-inch 4k and 3D flat screen TV. Overlooking the grounds & ocean is a sunken large dining area with an enormous teak dining table imported from Bali. The living room and kitchen have a magnificent 25-foot vaulted Balinese ceiling. The living area also features a large powder room and a laundry room.

This living area is flanked by two magnificent master bedroom suites with 20-foot vaulted ceilings. Each suite has a wall of glass with a sweeping view of the ocean. Amenities include 55-inch 4k 3D TV. The ultra-luxury bathrooms feature Caesar stone and Carrara White slab walls and floors, top-of-the-line Hansgrohe Axor fixtures, and stand-alone tubs carved of solid Carrara marble. The bedrooms are furnished with Italian furniture and white hotel-quality bedding. These main house bedrooms each include a lower built-in area for lounging or for use as additional sleeping quarters. There is also a rollaway bed available for a 9th guest.

Ananda's two pavilions are stand-alone master bedroom suites. They feature fully retractable glass curtain walls with sweeping views of the ocean. Each pavilion has a full-size walk-in closet and a master bath with Caesar stone walls and floors, Hansgrohe Axor fixtures, and solid marble stand-alone tubs.

We had a great week staying at Ananda. Six adults and three children and it was perfect. The owners have the whole place appointed with everything you could need from beach play to baking in the kitchen. And it's one of the nicest beaches in Eleuthera. Everyone had a great time. I'll do it again!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This home is perfect for a yoga retreat, a milestone birthday with friends or a family reunion. We were an extended family with a grandchild and it was perfect. The sugar sand beach and turquoise water made us just look at each other and laugh. Beautifully appointed bedrooms. Close to everything we wanted, yet felt very exclusive. We hope to come back!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: To preface, we have visited Eleuthera since 2016, and have stayed in many different properties. This is by far the most luxurious house we have rented. (All of the houses we have rented thru EVR and all been pretty true to description) Ananda is a jewel of a property. Overall I give this house an A or 4.8 out of 5 Stars. Incredible location, amazing beach, pool, kitchen, kitchen gear, beds, bed linens, bathrooms, showers, outdoor patio space, recreational gear for the beach. The beach is one of the most beautiful beaches on the island. House was clean, prepared, and ready, easy to figure out tech features. the visitors manual compiled by owners is the best one we have found, as it provides answers to everything, and great tips for enjoying the island, and a great menu collection. (Yes, Potlatch Club is also our new favorite eatery and its very close to Ananda) Only issue we had throughout the stay is that the HVAC unit in the main house could use a tune up. The ACs worked great in the two king suite cottages, but the main house was never truly cool. The master bedroom was the least cool. Fine at night, but struggled to keep up in the day. Otherwise, this house is a 10/10. I would absolutely stay here again. And the owners were great to work with-- very helpful! We are already looking at the calendar to figure out our next trip, and I would definitely stay at Ananda!
