Stunning views!
Heron Hill sits on gorgeous average with calming, serene views of the water. We got in early but the house was ready for us and we started our vacation immediately. Andrew is a sweetheart and took great care of us.
Lots of privacy both inside the house and out. Perfect for a larger group.
We will be back!!
We are very happy that you enjoyed your stay. You were great guests and hope you will return some day.
Looking for sun
Heron Hill is everything the description says it is!
The view and location are perfect. The beach was great, and the sand..... like no other we’ve seen before. Also, the location allows you to do day trips to the north or south.
Andrew is awesome! Available if needed (we had no issues) and brought us some fresh greens and tomatoes from his garden. Not to mention the watermelon was very flavorful.
Thanks for sharing your island with us, we definitely will be back!
You were very special guests. We hope you will return. You are true "Island" people.
Great house with lots of privacy
Heron Hill is a great location with breath taking views. The pictures of the beach are dated as there is no sand in front of the house. If you have good balance the rocks aren't hard to negotiate or there is public beach access less than a mile down the road. The bedrooms allow privacy for four couples and the apartment downstairs is lovely and extra private.
Overall we would book Heron Hill again.
We are very happy that you enjoyed your stay and hope that you will return. The pictures of the beach are not dated. Sometimes after very heavy seas (such as the recent passing of Dorian) the sand will be taken away at the bottom of the stairs. It always returns.

Great view with privacy
Property is very nice, we had a couple problems though they were somewhat fixed right away. The bed frame broke, and then Andrew the caretaker fixed it, then it broke again. So the other couple decided to switch rooms. The pool stopped working toward the end of the trip and due to a water crisis in town, it couldn't be repaired because it couldn't be refilled. Other than that we were very happy with the property. The property layout is great for multiple families as it provides for privacy for each group.
I am so sorry that you had problems with the bed frame. It is a brand new bedroom set and our caretaker has now assured me that the problem is fixed. The water supply is now all set as well.
Sweet Get Away
We very much enjoyed our time in the Bahamas and at the Heron House.
The house is spacious and has all the luxuries of home (including good wifi for the kids when they had enough sun). The décor and furniture were tasteful and comfortable. The pool and deck were welcome amenities after spending time on the beach and in the Atlantic.
The kitchen, important for a family of five, was well appointed with newer appliances (a luxury for the Bahamas based on our previous visits to the Islands). Stocked with the necessary utensils and spices one would normally keep at home. Having two fridges in the main kitchen was an unexpected treat.
Air conditioning worked well for the hot evenings (otherwise, the sliding doors and screens provided for a nice sea breeze during the day).
We enjoyed our stay at the Heron House and would very much recommend it.
Thank you for your review. You were great guests and we hope you will return soon.

Location
Heron Hill is a large, luxurious house complete with all of the amenities. The 5 acre grounds are beautifully landscaped and the newly added swimming pool provides additional enjoyment. The Island is 110 miles long with amazing blue water and pink sand beaches. Not a tourist destination so the beaches are never crowded. Coral reefs directly off the shore for diving and snorkeling. Many small restaurants with live music and delicious food. Caving, birding, fishing and exploring throughout the Island. The people are very friendly and will help with any questions. Large organic farms for fresh produce and fresh fish is brought into the dock every day in Governor's Harbour. Tennis Court that can be rented 100 feet from the entrance to the house. Peace, quiet and beauty yet there are not only very good restaurants but also shops with local crafts, a movie theater that serves beer, conch salad and hamburgers, Friday Night Fish Fry and other local events as well as craft fairs and a Jazz festival.

About Lynne Fagan Murray
Physician and Psychologist
Lynne Fagan Murray purchased this Villa in 1994
Why Lynne Fagan Murray chose North Palmetto Point
We had been sailing for many years in the Caribbean looking for our Island home and by accident heard about Eleuthera. This is what we had been looking for. An Island with beautiful beaches and friendly people. Off the main tourist tract. The first time we saw the water and the beautiful deserted beaches we knew we were home
What makes this Villa unique
Close to the United States with the Bahamian dollar on par with the US dollar. Miles of deserted beaches with gorgeous reefs and small settlements with friendly people. Lots of things to do yet off the main tourist radar. Wonderful climate that is between 70 and 85 all year round. Small restaurants, fish frys and lots of local entertainment yet it is unusual to see other people on the beaches. Very friendly helpful people that are always willing to make people feel at home.
