About this property
Yellowbird, a Charming Property w/ Main House, Guest Cottage, Pool, In Town
Yellowbird is a beautiful mix of old and new. A listed, historic main house dating from the 1800s with a fully remodeled kitchen and amenities, and a more recently built two-story guest cottage with a refreshing plunge pool tucked between the houses. With beautiful indoor and outdoor living spaces, there are lots of cozy places to enjoy a cocktail, or read a book and relax. We enjoy sitting on the front porch swing to survey the local charm of the island.
Yellowbird is totally enclosed for privacy and security. The main house has two bedrooms - one with a queen bed, the other with two twin beds - and two bathrooms. Both bedrooms are tucked up under the eaves and have direct access to the rear verandah. The cottage includes three separate bedrooms each with queen beds and en-suite bathrooms. The two lower bedrooms in the guest cottage adjoin making a family-friendly suite. The upper bedroom has a harbour view. The property layout is ideal for two families traveling together or one big family.

We loved our stay at Yellowbird. Location was easy to get to from the ferry, and walkable to town. The layout of the house was great for our two families and small kids. Comfortable, and enough space for everyone to be together or have time alone. We will absolutely be back!

WE are so glad you enjoyed your stay in Harbour Island and loved Yellowbird! We look forward to welcomg you back to Briland.
The Yellowbird is a lovely property, that was perfect for our group of eight. We were on Harbor Island for a wedding, and the layout was perfect for the various generations that were staying at the home. The bedrooms were clean and well appointed, and everyone appreciated being able to gather in the various common areas, especially the pool. Communication with the host was prompt and easy. The property is centrally located in town, and within walking distance of the main dock. Two notes: 1) three of the bedroom are located up some rather steep stairs (which was an issue for us as various relatives in our group are in their 70s through 90). 2) There are LOTS of roosters on Harbor Island, and several of them live on the adjoining property. It wasn't an issue for me, but some in our group heard them every morning.
This house was absolutely beautiful. The host have made the house a true vacation property. The only thing I wish was that the pool had been heated although it was not terribly cold. We were on a high school graduation trip with many families and unfortunately had an issue outside of the home that put a damper on our holiday. The property managers were extremely helpful!
This was my 3rd time on the island and the first with a big group. I had my heart set on Yellowbird and it could not have been more perfect. It was a birthday girls trip and we all had our own rooms. We did breakfast everyday at the house, laid by the pool, was so nice to just walk to dinner every night, minutes away is the beach on the golf cart. Abigail, Lysa, Tavaro, and Mano helped with any request we had and immediately. The house is original so it has quirks but that’s part of the charm!

We are so glad you enjoyed Briland and Yellowbird!
We love Harbour Island. We really enjoyed Yellowbird. Great for our two families - great common space and enough rooms and bathrooms to make everyone comfortable.
Enjoyed our stay so much! Excellent communication - so low key - took care of whatever we needed - right in the heart of downtown but easy access to the public beach with Ms V’s Beach Service was A+
Highly recommend!

Happy Birthday! We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay with us and look forward to welcoming you back soon!
We enjoyed staying at Yellowbird. There was enough space for our group of ten to spread out and also enjoy time together. The pool was refreshing and the location was a perfect distance to some of the island's best restaurants!
