Helios House is one of my favourite properties in Eleuthera. Large and with great eminence, it is a well thought out home, with mulyiples living and entertaining spaces, both inside and out. It serves a large group well, since you can spread out or congregate. From the property the house feels completely private, even though both Governors Harbour and Palmetto Point are short drives away. The dirt roads that lead to the house off paved Banks Road are medium rough, but not treacherous like some others on the island. The pool is beautiful, and a treat when the Atlantic waters are too rough. The beach is very good, wide enough, and good for walking. To the north are some fun tidal pools. Decent beach snorkeling, but better a bit south. Don't miss the view from the tower deck during the day, a commanding vista of the yard, beach and ocean! We had strong breezes almost every day, keeping the bugs away. The owner Bertrand is easy to work with and very communicative, and he is always updating & improving the property. I plan to stay here again and again.

Helios House is a beautiful place to vacation with a group. We stayed with friends for a 50th birthday celebration. Bertrand is very attentive and responsive to emails prior to your arrival, so you feel comfortable. The house manager, Nicki, met us at the house and went through the details and home. The housekeeper, Shirley, was wonderful and took good care of us. A sweet lady. Our Chef, Irene, was perfect. I would recommend getting a chef to reduce your shopping, cooking, and cleaning time! We were truly able to relax at this paradise! Some other reviews had cautioned that it is slippery around the pool area and this is true - so, do be careful. It is easy to get to the beach. There is a nice Cabana on the beach to hang out and we only saw 3 other people for a short time the entire 8 days. You do feel like this beach is yours. The only reason I gave this place 4 stars is because we had some issues with the pool and not being able to use it for a couple of days. A large storm came through and caused it to become murky. We did notify the house manager, but, she stated they normally treat it once a week so it did not get treated again. I have notified Bertrand of the issue upon return and he was very responsive to fixing this problem in the future. I feel sure that if you are a guest there, it will be taken care of right away. We would definitely stay there again!!!!

What a beautiful property hidden down there. A main house, a loft house, and a cottage all nestled together with beautiful views of the ocean. The kitchen is very well aquatinted with kitchen aide appliances. Infinity pool has a beautiful view of the ocean. Locals are super nice and willing to assist with answers to our questions. Stores have the essentials with delivery on Tuesday. Expect prices to be 2 to 5 times more than you will pay in the states. 2 types of beer, coors light and sands beer. $50 a case:)
