Dunmore Town, Harbour Island
All of the benefits of an oceanfront house, at a fraction of the cost. Featuring private beach access, luxurious beach furniture and palapas. This is one of the many reasons The Playhouse has earned a 5.0 out of 5.0 guest rating and outstanding reviews. The Playhouse is a 2021 ground up renovation by a highly regarded architect, landscape architect and interior designer. It was thoughtfully created to be an unmatched Bahamian home where families and friends gather to play and enjoy the best of Harbour Island. With 4 beautiful bedrooms it can sleep up to 10 people: 2 king beds, 1 bedroom with 2 twin beds which can be made into a king, and another with a king bed and a twin trundle. The freestanding exercise room can sleep 2 additional people to bring the total to 12 guests when additional capacity is needed. Four gorgeous bathrooms are distinctive in design, each with a unique island vibe. The house features vibrant Bahamian colors and island patterns throughout.
The soaring ceilings in the living room, kitchen, dining, and indoor bar areas make these spaces inviting places to gather. The custom cabinetry is well appointed with a collection of everything you need to set a stunning table and serve delicious meals, whether you are cooking or bringing in a chef. The outdoor grilling area is directly adjacent to the indoor kitchen and outdoor bar. Collectible quality artwork makes this house remarkable.
All systems are new and state of the art: reverse osmosis water, generator, internet, televisions, luxury appliances, and high-end furniture, fixtures, bedding, towels, and accessories. Complimentary Purology hair and body products are provided. From beach chairs and Yeti coolers to indoor and outdoor games, the owner has supplied everything you will need to make fond memories.
If you want to work or work-out, there is a desk in the blue master bedroom and the private gym is equipped with a Peloton bike and screen, resistance equipment and light weights. The outdoor sport court includes a basketball hoop for fun and games. The pool is nestled in the garden and surrounded by all forms of flora and fauna, including butterflies and hummingbirds. The garden covers the entire property and is truly spectacular. Our dedicated housekeeper, gardener and property manager make this house a home. They enjoy hosting and will make certain you are well cared for during your stay.
The 1200 feet of outdoor covered space will provide you with unlimited options for gathering and enjoyment. You will have your own spacious bar including a 65” outdoor television and a wrap-around banquette with lounge or dining seating for up to 18 people and 8 more at the bar. This space features a two-story cupola and exposed wood ceiling which must be experienced to be fully appreciated.
Unique differentiators: This property is one lot from the ocean on the bay side. Buttonwood and the Playhouse are owned by the same family and access to the premier dock at Buttonwood is based on availability. Open console boats up to 40’ can be docked at no additional charge, and enclosed boats up to 100’ with a maximum 6’ draft requiring water and electricity can be docked for $5.00 per foot per day. The Playhouse is just a short 5-minute walk or golf cart ride to the nearest access to the world- famous Pink Sands beach. Playhouse guests can use our two private palapas and chaise lounge chairs on the glorious beach which stretches for 3 miles and is more than 100 feet wide. Whether you enjoy beach walks, strolling to renowned restaurants, snorkeling from the shore, horseback riding, body surfing, swimming, sandcastle building or searching for the perfect tropical drink, you can do it all from the private retreat on the beach. Buttonwood, the owner’s bayfront home, sleeps 17 and can be rented in combination with the Playhouse, based on availability.
*Minimum stay is 4 nights, and 7-night stays are preferred during holidays and in high season. Saturday to Saturday bookings will be favored by the owner, whenever possible. Extended stays at a reduced cost are possible.
This home was perfect! If you are a boater and you are looking for a luxury rental with a private dock which can accommodate boats up to 100' (and was perfect for our 42') with water and shore power, LOOK NO FURTHER!!! This home had everything one could possible need to enjoy their vacation, while having all the amenities of home. The attention to detail was spot on. Their house staff was lovely, and we happened to be visiting while the property owners were in town staying at their adjacent property on this luxury compound. They are amazing hosts!! From assisting us from the moment we landed at the dock to golf cart rentals and daily house cleaning, we will never need to look for another rental when visiting Harbour Island. The property is beautifully manicured and the house itself is even more incredible than the pictures. The vibrant island colors, comfortable bedding and luxury toiletries are the perfect touch! No need to bring anything with you. The Playhouse and Buttonwood compound is spectacular!! The palapas on the pink sand beach are a nice touch for you to enjoy your own slice of paradise. Our family and friends - including 3 teenagers had the most comfortable and wonderful week stay. We can't wait to return!! Thank you Lisa, Rickey and Shawn!!! We will definitely be back!
Such a beautiful and well stocked home for entertaining - the owners have thought of everything. We had kids in tow but would have loved to put the outdoor bar and seating to use -- surrounded by beautiful landscaping and the pool is a great size for adults taking a dip or young family playing around. We hope to be back!
This house have everything and is a fabulous place to go on vacation. The inside - Very well decorated with vibrant colors, attention to detail and lots of really good books. The main room is a great open room with the kitchen, a giant dining island and the living room all together. The kitchen has everything from coffee machines, dishes, prep space, serving plates and bowls, a separate wine or drink fridge, a drawer full of paper plates/cups/napkins for outside or to take to the beach, no detail was left uncovered. Perfect space to congregate and cook/eat or watch tv or hang out. There is a master bed w bath, another bed w bath (I think queen but maybe king), a twin room and another queen room that share a bath. All of the rooms are well appointed and two of us commented about how the mattresses made us want to buy new beds. The bathrooms have shampoo and bath products so no need to bring them. There is also a utility room with washer/dryer so you don't have to overpack. Great water pressure, lots of hot water, fluffy towels and linens. There is a sound system and the TVs have Netflix and cable. The house is remarkably comfortable and spacious for a group (we were 7 total, 4 adults, 3 seven year olds). There is also a small gym which is highly motivating to stay active plus really nice to have its own space. The outside of the house might be the best part - the patio/bar/pool is where we spent the most time. There is a large bar with a fridge, ice maker and sink and there is an outside bathroom so you don't have to go inside / trek in water/dirt. The pool is small and shockingly deep so perfect for kids. There is also a really nice gas grill we used plus lounging chairs, a sofa and lots of tables and bench space. Add to that the fact that they have a cabinet full of board games, a giant TV and a beautiful garden and we were outside a lot. The private beach palapa was very close and convenient. The location on the island is toward the south end. Nothing is that far apart but we liked being a little bit farther out of town. That part of the island is also really good if you happen to be a runner b/c there are lots of loops you can do and get a decent run in with a bit less traffic. Last but not least, the owner was responsive and helpful throughout. The property manager was super nice and took us out boating one day. The housekeeper could not have been better. Overall we felt very well cared for. I definitely would go back.
We stayed for 9 days with family of 5. House is perfect for guests of all types. Fabulous outdoor space, with beautiful landscaping. Staff is amazing and super helpful. Owners are very responsive and have poured every detail into the house. We come to the island at least once a year for many years. Have stayed at many homes, this is at the very top.
