11 steps to the Ocean

**Villa is FOR SALE and will be shown to potential buyers with 24 hours notice.**

11 steps from Harbour Lights Villa is Elizabeth Harbour and our quiet bay . The villa is a 1,788 square foot 2 bedroom, 2 ½ bath home with all amenities of this upscale resort community.

There is absolutely no smoking allowed in the villa.

February Point is a gated/security-monitored destination resort. The property features tennis courts, private beaches, two infinity pools and a jacuzzi.

There is a spa and a modest fitness center. The Rusty Anchor Restaurant offers casual waterfront dining.

Harbour Lights Villa features vaulted ceilings with fans, an office nook, and a fully-equipped kitchen with two sinks and granite countertops. There is a full-sized Viking refrigerator and microwave, a dishwasher, and a dining area with a teak dining table with seating for six. A separate laundry room contains a stackable washer/dryer and utility sink. The upper floor has a spacious master suite with a king-sized bed and features a large bathroom with a tiled shower and free-standing tub. The guest bedroom features a queen size bed and ensuite bathroom with tile shower. Both rooms have ceiling fans and each floor has a dedicated central air conditioning system. A former enormous dressing room adjacent to the master bedroom has been converted to a third bedroom with a double futon for extra guests. The 773 square foot outdoor space includes full wrap-around patios on upper and lower decks, perfect for watching the Regatta action and the beautiful water! A teak patio dining table for six is available for outside dining and the patio includes a full-sized propane BBQ.
In the technology and entertainment department, the villa offers a smart TV with access to Netflix (bring your password), Amazon Prime Video, and five television channels. There is also a DVD player with an extensive DVD library and super-fast fiberoptic WIFI.

Great Exuma offers the most beautiful beaches and water in the Bahamas (perhaps the world). Take advantage of this by renting watercraft and going to the nearby secluded beaches on Stocking Island or taking a boat tour to see the swimming pigs! These activities can be arranged in nearby George Town, about a mile away. There you can also find grocery stores, banks/ATMS, churches, a gas station, bars, liquor stores, restaurants and shops.
The villa changed ownership in April of 2019, and the new owners have worked very hard to restore it to its original grace and charm following many years off the rental market. They have renovated the interior to its original casual contemporary elegance. The exterior had just been painted a charming Caribbean canary yellow with white trim.

Disappointing Experience
The property & surroundings were lovely & as described. We had booked for a month but after 3 days I found out I had stage 4 ovarian cancer we had to fly home to begin treatment. We asked if the owners could offer any refund given the situation. Eventually they offered to refund us any nights that were rebooked. 15 nights were but they did not refund what we paid for those nights but approx half price claiming they couldn't get the same rate (I booked 2 years ago at a discount). The lack of compassion they showed astounds me. I am an owner myself and given a situation like this I would have refunded at least half especially when most of the month rebooked. We are out of pocket a significant amount of money for 3 nights

Gorgeous Bay
The view from the Villa is beautiful. Everything was as described. Some basic cooking spray & such would’ve been nice, larger coffee pot it’s very small & I would’ve loved a TV in the master for night time being that we had teens using the one downstairs. Just suggestions. Our stay was great & you literally have beautiful crystal clear water right outside the patio door.

Beautiful property
This property is amazing. Very well appointed house. Every kitchen item you could need. Very clean. The view is amazing. We watched for turtles every morning. The location is great close to Georgetown and kind of in the middle of the island so everything was within a 1/2 hr. Lots of beach toys at the house. We had a very relaxing vacation

Best vacation yet!
We usually go to an all inclusive in Jamaica (over a dozen times) but we agreed to try something different this year. I am so glad we did. Exuma is breathtaking. The house was lovely and in the perfect location. Just a short drive to restaurants and the market. The house was clean and there was plenty of household items to make our stay comfortable. The temp was comfortable and loved having the washer and dryer on premise. The sofa was ok but definitely had wear and tear. The TV is very small. I know it’s insignificant but after a long day in the Sun, we just wanted to chill out and watch a movie. The stairs in this house are a tragic accident waiting to happen. They are dark in color and there is nothing to transition each step. They blended together making it difficult to tell where it ended. There were a few near-misses with accidental falls. The bedrooms are lovely and plenty big enough. Plenty of space to unpack. The beds were so hard and uncomfortable. This was a complaint amongst the 4 of us. The master bathroom was huge as well the shower. However the toilet is in a “closet” and your knees literally touch the door when sitting. The toilet is loose and wiggled when you sat down. One day there was a terrible sour smell. Could not figure out where it was coming from. We ended up keep the toilet door shut and the fan running. Seemed to go away. Maybe the loose toilet was letting sewer fumes in? Decent house for the price point. Location was perfect.

Wonderful stay
We love staying in February Point for the location and beauty of the houses right on the water with a dock to keep your rental boat. Beautiful views from the house inside and out. Amazing stay once again.

The house was beautiful….the house manager was amazing and very knowledgeable about everything and very helpful … our only problem was the electric goes out and on our last stay there the electric went out for most of the day into our day we left and it was rough without AC or light in the house … I hear this happens a lot here but not much you can do the manager was very helpful and communicative with us during that time … I would definitely stay here again ;)

Incredible location and view!
Fantastic location and amenities! The view from the master bedroom is breathtaking. Turtles every morning, starfish everywhere, just amazing. Here's a couple of things to know that aren't in the listing. The garbage cans are across the street. The cold water on the amazing bath doesn't work. The beach towels are in a ottoman by the backdoor near the dining room. There is an inflatable paddle board in the guest room closet. The pump is in the laundry room. And the flies...you'll be battling them all week but it is the Bahamas!
