Fond Memories is a beautifully appointed 2-bedroom 2.5-bathroom villa, located on the hilltop of Governor's Harbour, and overlooking the harbour waters in the distance below. This contemporary property is part of the distinguished Governor's Harbour Collection, a select group of top-tier rentals in central Eleuthera.
The ground floor of Fond Memories is open planned and spacious, with a fully equipped kitchen with stainless appliances and a kitchen island with counter-top seating. The main dining area (with seating for 6) is perfect for family dinners or for entertaining, while the comfortable sitting and living area, with its beautifully custom-built entertainment unit and Cable/Smart TV, is a wonderful space to relax and unwind after a day exploring the island! The ground floor also has a powder room.
Both bedrooms at Fond Memories are located upstairs and include en-suite bathrooms and fitted wardrobes, as well as SMART TVs. The master bedroom features a King bed and the second bedroom contains two twin beds that easily covert to a second King, with plush mattress topper. An additional single cot style bed (with inflatable mattress) can be added to this room for a 5th guest.
The outdoor deck on the upstairs level at Fond Memories offers beautiful views of the idyllic harbor below and is a wonderful place to unwind with a glass of wine while watching the sun go down. Downstairs, there is an outdoor patio with table and chairs - a lovely spot for al-fresco dining, while enjoying the tropical, landscaped garden.
At Fond Memories, we aim to provide our guests with an eco-friendly rental experience. All cleaning is done using only plant-based, chemical free products that are not tested on animals (including disinfecting all hard surfaces between rentals). We use LED light bulbs to reduce energy consumption, and provide our guests with recycled paper supplies (paper towels, toilet paper), as well as reusable grocery bags.
Amenities include Starlink high-speed Internet, high efficiency ductless A/C units throughout, back-up generator and water cistern, laundry room with full size Washer & Dryer, SMART TVs in living room and bedrooms, Apple TV, Google and Sonos Bluetooth Speakers with iPad control, and an outdoor propane grill.

Beach towels, beach chairs, a beach umbrella, and cooler bag are also included with the rental. The swimming pool can be heated for a fee of $250 per week.
For parents travelling with infants and young toddlers, Fond Memories does include a pack n' play with mattress topper and high-chair for your convenience.
Daily housekeeping, private chef, and other concierge services are always available on the estate for an additional charge.
