Wind Whistle Harbour Villa – at Ciboney on Harbour Island, completed in 2017, showcases as the classic Bahamian 2.5 story veranda-style great house. This stately harbour front residence was built with family vacations, relaxing in luxury, natural light, water sports and entertaining in mind. Creating a sense of place was of the upmost importance to the architect, interior designer and builder of Wind Whistle.
As one enters the property via the private, gated, tree lined driveway into the lush tropical gardens of Wind Whistle sloping towards the harbour and house, there is a true sense of privacy and sanctuary. There is a spacious parking area and covered cart port one passes as approaching the front door where the guests first view upon entering is directly through the house to the lawns, pool, harbour and north Eleuthera beyond.  
Guests may also arrive via boat (or water taxi) to the Wind Whistle private dock. The dock accommodates vessels up to 45ft. with 30amp, 110v shore power, purified water. The dock is a short 150ft walk up to the house. There are 2 paddle board and a 2-person kayak included with the villa.
The great room, living and dining rooms all offer an 11-foot coffered ceiling, along with three pairs of French doors leading out to the lower veranda and stunning views of the harbour and Eleuthera in the distance. Guests enjoy the living room with oversized sofa, rattan chairs upholstered in Quadrille fabric and 65-inch smart television.  The main dining area offers a bespoke rattan Chippendale dining table with seating for ten guests. There is also an outdoor dining area that seats 6.

    Wonderful! Can't say enough good things about Wind Whistle. Ruth and James were wonderful- took care of everything that we needed. The house and property was even more beautiful than the pictures show. We will definitely be back!!!

    The property was top notch with respect to furnishings and architectural touches and layout. The views were amazing and face the harbour for fabulous sunsets and the house comes with a dock, so would recommend keeping a boat there during your stay. Would definitely recommend Wind Whistle!

    The house is amazing. There is a pool that overlooks a small beach (at low tied). You can walk out onto the dock, paddle board, kayak in the crystal clear water just below the house. Ruth, who cleans the house, was very friendly. We thoroughly enjoyed it and would go back.

    Wonderful house for a family! Chic decor but still a comfortable house. The large pool has a gorgeous view of the harbor as you can see in the photos, but even better in person. We spent a lot of time there, as the beach side was particularly windy the week we were there, and the harbor side was much more pleasant, so that worked out great! We were able to rent boat and keep it at the house, which was nice. The dock also allows for water taxi to drop you directly at the house when arriving and departing, which was extra convenient! James, the house manager, was so nice and hospitable and full of tips about the Island. Would absolutely rent again!

    Gorgeous.! As a retired designer I appreciated the high end furnishings and beautiful design . The years and all the rentals have taken a bit of wear on the property . Like a elegant women aged with years of a life well lived . I would rent again and will . The staff were kind and gracious and we loved them . Our group consisted of 2 couples and 2 singles so we used 4 of the en-suite bedrooms . We had 18ntotal in our party so the house was a great gathering place for cocktails before heading to one of the islands many fine dining experiences . We loved having the dock where we kept a boat and also had the water taxi drop us from the airport . A major convenience when arriving and departing . I just really enjoy James Malcom . He was informing and interesting and a wealth of information . We enjoyed his daily visit to check that we were happy . Overall an amazing week in a lovely home .
