We had such a wonderful time at this house! The house was over and beyond what we expected! Lady Di is a treasure with so much knowledge of the island. We would recommend this house to everyone!

We rented for 5 nights and felt so at home here. Plenty of room in the home, tastefully decorated with Island art and treasurers. The mood was set on relaxation mode from the moment you woke up till you went to bed. The beach and water of Gaulding Cay is unparalleled. Daily swims, snorkeling and hiking adventures helped us to work off the libations and meals that we consumed while in residence. Lady Di's family did more than take care of all our needs and questions with speed and kind Bahamian hospitality. Bags of fresh tomatoes, arugula, bananas, fresh flowers in vases and adorning our beds were just magical touches! When we ran out of propane more was delivered.
Now to just plan our return trip to Eleuthera and Moon Flower, it can not come soon enough!

In 1984 we took our young sons to Gregory Town, Eleuthera for a week family get-away. It was considered by them to be our best family holiday ever. To celebrate our 70th birthdays, my wife and I took them again along with their wives and our four grandchildren. We needed a house that could sleep 10 with enough bathrooms and a large dining area. We also wanted to be on a beach and near restaurants. We chose Moonflower and are we ever glad we did. After arriving at North Eleuthera Airport, we took 2 rented cars to the grocery store at Bluff, before arriving at Moonflower less than 30 minutes later and being greeted by property manager, Lady Di. She, her son and later, her daughter were a delight to deal with and everything was as we requested. An extra double bed was set up in one of the bedrooms so that all four grandchildren could sleep together. This had been set up by email with the owner who was also so easy to deal with. Moonflower is located right on one of the best beaches in Eleuthera, Gaulding Cay Beach. With the youngest grandchild being 4 years old, the shallow warm water was like a giant splash pool. Moonflower came supplied with beach lounges and two kayaks - one individual and one larger inflatable. A small island, Galding Cay is just a short snorkel away to view tropical fish or can be circled easily by kayak. One of the best restaurants on Eleuthera, Daddy Joe's, is literally at the end of the driveway to Moonflower! We did two day outings, one north to Spanish Wells with stops at Preachers Cave and Saphire (Blue) Hole and one south to Surfers' Beach and Governor's Harbour. The rest of the time was quality family fun at the beach at Moonflower. The pink glow of a Caribbean sunset and a stroll to the beach in the black of night to see the stars like you haven't seen in years - it's all there at Moonflower. Thank you Matt at VRBO, Geeta, and Lady Di for making this holiday so memorable and easy to plan.

I struggle to find words to describe how much I love Moonflower, Gaulding Cay Beach, and Eleuthera. Our stay was perfectly amazing.
We chose this location for our BEACH WEDDING and Moonflower for our group of 9 adults (4 couples and 1 extra). We could not have made a better choice. The beach was the perfect setting for a wedding & for vacationing. The home was even better in person than in the photos-seemed larger. Perfect size for the 9 of us and there was even extra room on the really comfy couches if you plan on having more guests. There were plenty of bedrooms and bathrooms, large back yard with patio furniture, large front yard, a hammock, and the beach. The living room and master BR had sliding glass doors which opened to the backyard overlooking the beach. Gaulding Cay Beach is phenominally beautiful. Calm, clear, safe water with an area to snorkel around the cay. Nice for lounging, safe for kids, and beautiful to take photos. You will almost always have the beach to yourselves. Moonflower is located on my favorite beach on the island and it is particularly located on the most ideal part of the beach- nestled on the southern end. We drove from the northern most to southern most point of Eleuthera and everyone agreed we had the best beach in our backyard. The location in Gregory Town is the best on the island (the best roads on the island are on the Northern End (less pot holes, not far from ELH Airport, as well as the ferries to Spanish Wells and Harbour Island, and only 20 min drive to the largest grocery store on the island). The CARETAKER Lady Di is the sweetest lady you will meet. She is friendly, open, warm, and welcoming and left gifts upon our arrival.ELEUTHERA is beautiful. It is non-touristy but has a ton of things for a tourist to do. DO NOT MISS: Snorkeling at nearby Oleander Gardens (the best snorkeling we found), Ferry to Spanish Wells, Ferry to Harbour Island, Beach hopping up and down the 110 mile island. Queens bath (very close- visit at low tide). We also enjoyed a tour with Eleuthera Tours to the Schooner Cays where we were brought to a deserted island and given a grill and food to make a lunch and enjoy the island to ourselves. You cannot go wrong staying at Moonflower- I wouldn't keep searching for a place to stay- you have found IT. Moonflower will always hold a special place in my heart (and not just because we were married there). Geeta is absolutely blessed to own this piece of paradise and gracious enough to share it.

This was our second trip to Eleuthera and we were bringing three other couples (8 people total) for their first time. The Moonflower property was everything we could ask for and more. It had 4 bedrooms with king sized beds and the beach was right outside our door. The property was so beautiful and well maintained. This property had it all from beach towels, beach toys, snorkel gear and bicycles. The beach was so peaceful and worked well for the people who wanted to spear fish and for the others who wanted to relax or take a leisurely swim. The Moonflower is also located close to Daddy Joe's which is a delicious restaurant with amazing drinks.
