    Everything was just perfect, from the temperature of the pool to the condition of the condo, to the local staff and Eleutheravacationrentals.net. We've stayed at Buttonwood several times over the last ten years and don't plan on staying anywhere else!

The property is in great shape and the management team was incredible to work with from the day I made my reservations to the day after I left when they reached out to make sure we were well.

The views from anywhere on the property are breathtaking. The ability to see views from both side of the island is a definite bonus. We were very pleased with our stay here and can’t wait to return.

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: I picked this bc it was centrally located on the island. There are 3 great places to eat 2 min away & 1 all-in-one store with better prices than the other just up the road. Saying that, you'll need to plan to drive 25 min either way to get to a 'bigger' town with more options. Next time i might stay at a bigger town & just plan driving more north or south, rather than having to drive 25 min every time to go north or south. Property description was right-on. It does need to be dusted better, but everything else was clean. Would def make sure everyone in your party knows how 'remote' it is compared to other places on the island that are more in a bigger town. pool, golf carts, bikes - all the extra stuff listed was great. During the off-season - you should know that restaurant hours will be erratic - you never know when something will be open or not. Esp the smaller places to eat that might be diff to find. Get a jeep, it is needed. Google maps not always reliable - be prepared to turn around a lot (bc you missed a turn) and prepared for adventures (bring food/water as well) I'd say if you stay here, do so during peak season so more places will be open. Bring your own pickleball stuff (as stated in the description) very happy there is a washer/dryer in the condo. I felt very safe on the entire island. i've been to other bahamian islands - nobody asks you for money or trys to sell you things while you are out and about minding your own business. Friendly people for sure, but like a lot of places, they assume you have $$$, we are not loaded & needed to spend wisely. Bring lots of cash, so you don't have to use the ATM and get charged for that. when the power is out, credit cards cannot be used. some will say, we take credit but when you go to pay, sorry credit machine is not working, you are stuck & hopefully you have enough cash to pay. there were NOT as many power outages as I thought there would be &there was even line work being done

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We brought a team of youth and adults down to the island to do some mission work. The accommodations were great for our large group - the main lodge provided enough room for our large group time and meals. Matt, Brett, and the entire team were super responsive. We would definitely stay here again!

    Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a party of 16 and each family had their own unit which was plenty of space. The house (Building #2)was spotless and had everything we needed. It was so nice to have a washer and dryer with all the kids beach clothes. The beds were so comfortable and loved the decor throughout. The property manager was great and helpful. I understand that living on an island things don’t hold up as well with all the salty air. But the golf carts and barbecue area did need a little help. We hired Brenda and Patrick to help with dinners for a couple nights, they were a very sweet couple. The kept us full and happy. Do be prepared for food and prep to be very expensive.Unfortunately, the weather was not ideal when we were there the week before Christmas. But we did see sunshine a couple days. The locals are super helpful with car rentals, restaurants and things to do. We did a half day excursion with Sheldon at Exotic Excursions. The kids favorite part was feeding the stingrays and the pig island. In the evenings, when the tide was low, the kids really enjoyed, taking the kayaks out and searching for Sandollar, starfish and sea urchin in the tide pools out in front of the house.

    We visited Buttonwood with our adult children, aged 20, 21, and 22. The condo was bigger than we expected. Lots of space to spread out. The pull out couch was surprisingly comfortable. Everything was there that we needed. Towels, beach chairs, grilling tools, blender, etc. We stayed in condo 2B which was bottom level. Beds and linens were super comfortable. We literally had no issues. The beautiful Carribbean was a 2 min walk. The Atlantic was 5 min golf cart ride away. We never saw another person while we were on the beach. Lots of activities to do while on the island. Mark, the maintenance guy for Buttonwood, is a huge help. We rented a boat for the day and enjoyed snorkeling, shelling and pig island! We also did some cliff diving at the blue hole on the north end, exploring all the caves on the island and enjoying the beach side local bars on the island. Right down the road from Buttonwood in James Cistern, they have a grocery store/liquor store that will have most everything you need (except for meat). We packed a cooler full of meat and brought meat to the island from the US. They have some other grocery stores on the island with meat but it's pricey. Also in James Cistern they have a roadside guy named Luke who makes great conch salad and he can point you in the direction of getting fresh fish from piers. WiFi worked seamlessly at the property and we used the international plan for our phones while on the island and the service worked great-no issues. All in all, we highly recommend Buttonwood for a couple or family with older children as well as the beautiful island of Eleuthera. It would also be a great spot for multiple couples/families if you wanted to try and rent other condos on the island.
