PRIVATE ESTATE ON PINK SAND BCH WITH PRIVATE POOL, WALK TO REST./BAR.

Welcome to Owl’s Roost. This private estate looks out over a pristine, mile-long pink-sand beach. Although totally secluded, Owl’s Roost is just a 5 minute walk down the beach from Pascale’s famous beachfront restaurant and bar. Governors Harbour, the main town on the island with other restaurants, bars, grocery stores, banks, gift shops, bakery and more, is five minutes away by car. From all the rooms in this house, the beach and ocean are everywhere. A new heated pool was completed in November 2022 with a marvelous view of our pink sand beach! You can see and hear the ocean as if you were standing on the beach. (There is a fee of $385 per week to heat the pool.)

PLEASE NOTE: WE LOVE CHILDREN, BUT OUR VERANDA AND STAIRS DOWN TO THE BACK YARD HAVE ONLY CABLE RAILINGS, AND ARE POTENTIAL FALL HAZARDS, SO WE REGRET THAT WE CAN'T HOST CHILDREN UNDER AGE 12.

Owl’s Roost consists of a large central living area and two wings containing bedrooms. The magnificent high-ceilinged great room features sweeping 180-degree views of the ocean. The sitting area is furnished with sofas and armchairs facing the sea. The dining area also enjoys ocean views and has seating for 6 to 8. There is an adjacent TV area as well.

The luxurious island kitchen is equipped with a Sub-Zero refrigerator, glass-top range, two wall ovens, dishwasher and microwave. It also enjoys an ocean view. The kitchen is very high end, fully functional but dated.

One wing of the house is occupied entirely by the enormous master suite, which features a king bed and an ocean view. The en suite bath has a walk-in shower, water closet, and double sinks. There is a half bath and a laundry room off of the hallway to this wing.

The second wing houses the two guest suites. It is under the same roof as the rest of the house, but does not connect internally, so you walk 10 feet across the veranda to access the guest suites. Each guest suite has a private entrance from the veranda, full ensuite bath with a walk-in shower, and a beautiful beach and ocean view. The bathrooms are older but well maintained. One suite has a king bed and the other twin beds. Please note, the twin beds cannot be converted to a king.

A broad veranda extends the full length of the house facing the sea, and wraps around to the front of the house as well. It is one of Owl’s Roosts most delightful features. Every room has a sliding door to the veranda. There is a grassy jeep track that passes between the house and the beach. It is almost never used and feels like part of your front yard. Our pristine beach is a mile long, wide and flat, with beautiful pinkish sand and the clearest water. It is well protected by a barrier reef so the surf is very gentle, excepting only when there is a storm out at sea. You will usually have the world-class beach to yourself.

Amenities at Owls Roost include AC throughout, WIFI, satellite TV., washer/dryer, books and games, private heated pool and backup generator.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, which features a private pool. There's a private balcony or patio.

A beautiful place on a incredible beach. Everything worked as advertised. We loved the great room with a great view of the ocean and plenty of room for everyone. The guest rooms were very quiet. The appliances were top notch with a double oven and a sub zero fridge. Very well equipped, so many cabinets that we had a little trouble remembering where everything was kept The pool was a little cool, we should have opted for the heated option. We hope to return.

Had a wonderful week on the island and the stay at the owls roost made it that much better. The house was great. Such a beautiful piece of property and well described. The house is well stocked to truly have a relaxing vacation. The access down to the beach was a little rough as the heavy surf had recently eroded the shoreline but with a little problem solving we had no issue. We will definitely be back. The location is perfect and we loved everything about it. Thanks again

Exactly what the doctor ordered
Exclusively isolated which was divine!! Excellent recommendations from Eleuthera Rentals. Missed Tippy’s 😢. But we’ll get that next time. Even though we were less than a week after the storm, the worst day here is better than most people experience in a lifetime. Will be returning

Great Place
Pictures do not do it justice. Meticulously clean, well manicured grounds, nice architectural layout (1980's upscale), perfectly maintained, well stocked. Magnificent ocean view deck. Very private. Great location near everything in Governor's Harbor. Walk to Pascals along ocean front path. Exactly what we were after for a comfortable, relaxing, vacation.

Great family getaway!!
We stayed a week here in June and the property was amazing! Very well maintained and stocked. Beach access right out the back door to one the best beaches we’ve ever seen in all the Caribbean!!! Plus, calm waters with awesome reefs for snorkeling. We saw every kind of sea life, even a mom and baby dolphin who swam with us almost everyday. Loved that the house has a generator for the island power inconsistencies. We would definitely come back.

We didn’t need to explore the island with gorgeous waters and white sand, glowing pink wet right outside our door. The back patio gives sweeping views of it all and we never missed a sunrise. You are lucky if you get to stay here. I hope we get to return.
