This house is amazing. Directly on the beach with very little traffic. Felt like we owned it.Great sunsets. Well equipped for dining. We live down the front porch, which had a great all view of the ocean, two fans to keep it cool and very comfortable seating. And exactly like it was described. We loved it and plan to come back.
Our on-island host, Ken, was outstanding. From helping us find the place to sorting out some minor glitches to making recommendations. The house itself is fantastic. It should be noted that the house is located about 2.5 miles from Tarpum Bay and the road isn’t really walkable, so you should be prepared to drive everywhere.
Watercolors is a unique and wonderful spot to stay. It is on the water, in the quieter, southern part of Eleuthera, where you can still walk on the beach and see no one. The house was clean and roomy with a wonderful porch to sit and watch the sunset. The beds were very comfortable. And the AC was quiet and in good working order, though there are lots of windows to open and get in the island breezes. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need. There is a good market in Tarpon Bay and a few excellent restaurants in Rock Sound. We had a wonderful stay thanks to our caretaker Ken and Tyrone, the owner.
What a great house. The house was very clean comfortable and the beach was amazing. The owner and the property manager Ken were absolutely fantastic. The beds and sheets were very comfortable. There was good water, pressure and drinking water was supplied. The beach was almost all to yourself. There was lots of sea creatures and enough sandy spots to wade in the water. There was a grocery store in liquor store close as well. Everyone in town was wonderful as well. I look forward to bringing my husband back to this house and fishing. Perfect spot for that. A great value for what you receive. Don’t hesitate and just book it.

Thank you Kathryn.
I am happy you had a great time, and we appreciate you taking the leap of faith to come and stay at our, still new, vacation rental :)
We will be delighted to host you and your husband on your upcoming return trip.
Regards
The host was excellent and very helpful. I had some initial questions before booking and he was quick to respond. We had an issue problem on Christmas eve and he got it fixed that day. The house was clean. The kitchen is huge! And we had plenty of space to host 12 people for Christmas dinner. The beds are comfortable and everything looks like the pictures.We enjoyed our stay and will probably be back if we need a large place again.

Thank you Carolyn. We are happy that you enjoyed your Christmas at Watercolor. I am thrilled that you were able to comfortably host your party of 12 for Christmas dinner.
Thanks also for the 2 photos. Makes me feel like I also need to take a trip there early in the New Year :)
Good communication with host and the caretaker Ken, very comfortable house with great views from the porch. House is everything it says in the vrbo ad. Our flight was going to be late arriving, Ken offered to get us some essentials since the stores would be closed when we reached. Fridge was stocked with what we asked for giving us time to go to a restaurant that night and the store the next day. Made sure we had everything we needed during our stay. Starlink was nice to have for what time we spent in the house. Newer appliances, washer dryer was a plus. Very much enjoyed our stay. Definitely reccomend.

Thank you Jeff. We are happy that we succeeded in making your stay a very pleasant and enjoyable one, which is our number one goal with every guest. Please feel free to visit us again. It was a pleasure to host you !
The home is pristine as well as the beach in front!! Everything extremely clean and all amenities were in working order. The location is ideal and the sunsets were heavenly. You can walk the beach in either direction and we saw 1 person on beach during our stay. The pier for fresh fish and conch is just a few minutes away. The shops in the area were very well stocked and all the locals are very friendly. Our only regret is not booking it for a longer stay!!! We will definitely be back!stockedstockedstodiorkorder.
