About this space

Welcome to FOLLY!

One of the most beautiful Victorian Houses in Governors Harbour Eleuthera, with breathtaking views of the Harbour from sunrise to sunset. Sunset cocktails are an absolute must!!

The main town of Govenors Harbour, steps from our front door, has grocery stores, restaurants, liquor stores, two banks with ATMs, a bakery, gift shops, a diving shop, and medical clinic. You can buy fresh fish every afternoon from fishermen at the town dock.

Friday Night Fish Fry in the Harbour is a street/beach party that brings all of the tourists and locals together with food, drinks, and dancing in the street. Something not to be missed… and you can walk ...

Governors Harbour also has a beach on the harbor which you can see from the front of the house, and which you can walk to in two minutes.

Enjoy a beautiful night on the wrap around porch, dining alfresco and sipping cocktails while watching all the boats and activities.

FOLLY has be completely updated and features a large elegant living room with a gorgeous, open, sun-filled plan, overlooking the harbor and featuring light sheers for total privacy. This house also includes comfortable couches and a smart TV with cable and internet.

About Matthew Simon

You will love Eleuthera, an amazing unspoiled and undiscovered island. We love the beaches, which are spectacular and deserted, the slow pace, the friendly people, and the absence of crowds. We are a rental agency that handles Eleuthera exclusively. We will send you complete info about activities, restaurants, getting around, etc. Every house we represent has a local owner and property manager who will meet you upon arrival and get you settled.
