vacation of a lifetime!
We loved staying in Gov. Harbour with Lachelle as our host we were so well taken care of!!!! The house is clean big and more beautiful than the pics on line. I gave a 4 for the neighborhood due to bumpy road lol. Lachelle was open to communication and even gave me a gift for changing jobs! So so kind! Will definitely be back

Pictures do not do it justice! This home was gorgeous inside and out. The views are breathtaking. Laschelle was amazing. She was available via text/phone call whenever we needed her. The house had every amenity you need plus many extras. A short easy walk to Paschals with great food and wonderful bar tender (Sammy). If you visit Eleuthera we recommend Ocean Waves hands down! Thank you for an amazing vacation!

Amazing Vacation
We enjoyed our stay at Ocean Waves. It is well stocked with everything that you need. The beach access is beautiful with great snorkeling. It’s close to the stores and restaurants in Governors Harbor which is a plus. Lachelle is a wonderful host. She is very accommodating and was very responsive to all of our questions and needs. We definitely will return to Ocean Waves.

A gorgeous home away from home
We loved our three-week stay. Lachelle is a gracious host, responsive and welcoming. (A delicious apple pie made by her cousin was waiting for us when we arrived.) The comfy, clean house has an ocean view from every room and is a three-minute walk to a beach where we rarely saw more than one other couple. There is wonderful cross ventilation inside, thanks to large sliding glass screened doors in the living room and bedrooms and windows in every room. Outside are comfy chairs and lounges, some of which get afternoon shade. The kitchen is fully equipped, and if anything needed fixing, Jason attended to it right away. The restaurants and grocery stores in Governor’s Harbour are only a 10-minute drive away. The vibe here is so civilized--calm and relaxing. We can’t wait to return.

Ocean Waves is a gem! We love staying here and had a wonderful time on our second visit - would've stayed longer if we could have. The house is nicely outfitted with a well stocked kitchen, comfortable living room and bedrooms, and just about everything you need for the beach. The view is stunning, whatever the weather. The owner is helpful, responsive and a pleasure to deal with - though we've never met in person, it feels like we're friends. Already looking forward to returning next year. Thank you!! ❤️

Beautiful and restful vacation
Can't say enough good things about our stay. The ambiance of this ocean side home was just the thing we needed for the 2+ weeks we stayed at Ocean Waves. Comfortable accommodations, well appointed kitchen, beautiful windows to enjoy the beauty of the location, wonderful outdoor chairs and tables to be outside, and a great host who answered all our questions promptly. We would stay here again in a heartbeat!

What a view
Loved the beautiful views of the Atlantic Ocean from this beautiful home. Was nicely decorated , clean and fully equipped . Lachelle was easy to communicate with and even left us a welcome treat! Despite the stormy weather we had a nice time enjoying Ocean Waves. Would recommend to bring cash when you visit the island. Some stores ,bars and gas stations were cash only. We were very happy we rented the car from Bruno . His employee Mike saw us safely to the house in the storm the night we arrived. The location of the home is terrific as you have the option to explore going north or south. Highly recommend this comfortable home.

Hope to return soon!
We absolutely loved our stay at Ocean Waves! First, Lachelle was one of the most responsive hosts we've ever had. She and Jason were very helpful and generous. The house is spacious, very pleasant, and comfortable with a stunning ocean view. The A/C worked well with controls for each room, though we often turned it off to enjoy the breezes. It's a very short walk to the private gazebo and an absolutely wonderful stretch of beach. We spent a lot of time in the beautiful Eleuthera waters, and afterwards we especially liked sitting on the deck enjoying the warm breezes and listening to the waves. The kitchen is very well equipped. The location is private and serene, but it's an easy 10-minute drive to Governor's Harbour. The central location was great for exploring a lot of the island. We'd love to stay at Ocean Waves again and experience more of Eleuthera and its island love. Many thanks to the Thompson family for their wonderful hospitality!

This property and the hosts couldn’t be better! The view is spectacular. The home is very clean and you’ll find everything you need for a comfortable stay. It’s very close to restaurants and shops in Governor’s Harbour and a short walk (5 mins) down Banks Road to Pascal’s. The host is very responsive and even remembered us from our previous stay last year. We hope to vacation at this property again!

Beautiful house with access to the beach
This was a great house for our little family of 3. We loved the spaciousness, view and access to the beach. It’s remote (quiet), but still close enough to town for shopping and restaurants. Lachelle was a great communicator. I would love to give it 5 stars, but here is why I didn’t. We were aware of the potential of power outages. The island does load sharing often, so you’ll lose power for a couple of hours. But we had those outages plus a 16-hour outage. It was awful - no A/C or fans in July heat. No water. Had to throw out food. We heard generators at the surrounding properties, so I would highly suggest that you consider this when looking at potential properties.

Paradise!
One of the best stays we’ve ever had! Beautiful house and perfect location for a relaxing beach vacation. Governor’s Harbour is just an 8 minute drive away. Pascal’s bar is a short walk. (Their pool with swim-up bar was being repaired when we were there but re-opened the day we left.) The house is very comfortable with a well appointed kitchen. We enjoyed fresh coconut water from coconuts we picked ourselves. (Check YouTube for videos of how to open a green coconut- and there’s a tool in the drawer for this.) Lachelle was great! Good advice and helped us find a local car rental. Highly recommend!!!

Lachelle was fantastic and excellent communicating from booking until check out. She always made sure we had everything we needed and went above and beyond helping us celebrate for my moms birthday. The home is beautiful and so close to everything. Very well kept and stocked with everything you could need. Quite possibly the best views on the island!! The beach is amazing and we had fun playing in the waves and snorkeling. We can not thank Lachelle enough. For sharing her home with us. It was more than we could hoped for and we look forward to visiting the island again soon.

Our stay at this beautiful property was a trip to remember. Though our trip was short because this home is centrally located, we could visit the far extents of the island without having to overnight it elsewhere unnecessarily. We saw everything from Spanish Wells to Lighthouse Point. You won't regret making this your home away from home.

great spot/place
Hi, this place is great! It is a well designed house and very well appointed. My wife and I cook a lot so we appreciated the many kitchen gadgets available, especially sharp knives!! The view is spectacular and the beautiful beach is a 5 minute walk. Even though there are other houses nearby the most people we saw on the beach were 4 max and in front of this property we were happily alone. We also like that it is literally a 6 minute drive to Governor's Harbor for grocery shopping, restaurants, gas, and more. Lachelle, the owner was super easy to pleasant to communicate with. We will be back.
