This was our first visit to Eleuthera- absolutely wonderful vacation!
The Villa Allamanda is located just north of Governors Harbor, midway down the Island and very convenient to great beaches and restaurants. The rooms are immaculate and well appointed. I asked for a hair dryer and a toaster and the owner, John McCarty provided these! The room otherwise really had everything you would want and there are 360 degree views from our 3rd floor wrap around deck! John is a great host, really can guide you with restaurant recommendations, activities, shopping, good beaches, etc.
The island is known for it's uncrowded beaches and peaceful/relaxing environment. The people are friendly and welcoming. The beaches are amazing and there is great snorkeling on many of the beaches.
We were very pleased with the hotel, the host, and our location and would certainly return to this hotel when we revisit!
