“Absolutely fantastic!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 November 2011 via mobile

Our second trip to Eleuthera and first at Capricorn House. Words do not do it justice! A magnificent old world Caribbean estate. The home and grounds are lovingly and immaculately kept. The property is more than completely stocked with everything needed to feel at home in this exceedingly comfortable and welcoming home. The kitchen is professional and large. The house can accomodate as many as 14 people though we had it all to ourselves...it was a dream vacation...but only for those who "get" Eleuthera...it is about relaxing and immersing yourself in the beauty of this gorgeous and pleasant island and enjoying time with family or friends, not about running or night clubbing or shopping. The grounds (16 acres) are simply stunning. The private pool and bar are a great way to spend the afternoon between trips to the pristine postcard private beach. A full bath house is located at the path to the beach. Between that and the poolside fridge you never need to leave the beach area! One evening we walked from the house along the beach to Tippy's, a fantastic beachfront bar and restaurant with a world class chef, local reggae, and amazing views. Then we walked back (10 minutes) to the house under some of the darkest skies and brightest stars I've ever had the pleasure to see.

The house is located on the island's most desireable stretch of the Atlantic...private, elevated, simply beautiful.

Anne, the property manager, is a gem. Extremely responsive and pleasant, she catered to our two year old daughter and had the house set up with a crib and pack and play...also, when we had any issue, it was resolved immediately. The staff at the house are sweet and pleasant...Janeth is wonderful.

We were thrilled and plan to return many times in the future...Eleuthera and Capricorn House have captured our hearts.

“Pristine paradise”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 May 2011

This place is incredible. The beach was all ours, unless we wanted to walk 10 minutes in the soft sand to reach the beachfront bar/restaurant. The private pool was surrounded by palms and fragrant flowers and had a bar area -- perfect for a group of friends who just wanted to lounge about. We brought our pack-n-play and our 1-year-old was so happy to play (and sleep) in the shade of the poolside bar. The rooms were spotless and the large patio overlooking the ocean was a great place to gather with our friends at the end of the day. It was only a few minutes drive to the pub and grocery and Friday night fish fry, but it felt like we had the island to ourselves. What an amazing treat.

We attended a rehearsal dinner at Capricorn House - it was a beautiful sight with the Atlantic Ocean viewed from the patio. A great place to gather 30 people to share the joy of a wedding.

“Caribbean paradise”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 January 2010

person found this review helpful

Don't miss-out on this Caribbean paradise. Everything on the website is true… and more. Large groups or small… family or friends…young or old… sportsman or bookworm…Capricorn House is fun and relaxing for all. We walked the miles of pink, pristine beaches, snorkeled in the reef-protected, calm ocean waters, sunbathed by the freshwater pool, witnessed the brilliant sunrises and magnificent sunsets, and entertained under the incredible starlit skies. Discover this special place… You'll be back!

“Vacation to remember!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 January 2010

This was the vacation to remember, the island is so interesting and Capricorn House was so much more that we imagined. I loved everything and so did all our group. 12 good friends on a weeks sojurn in Eleuthera and we were thrilled with our choice. The beach was so private , no one there but us , had wonderful pink sand and great restaurants nearby, Tippy's, Beach House and Sunset plus the most wonderful CocoDiMama, really delicious fresh food there but a bit of a drive. This house was so much better than the one we rented in Harbor Island, we were amazed at how clean it was and all the baths were new and worked (not the case in the last house we rented.) The help were so nice and always gave us information of where to go and what to see.Large private pool also, we loved the wet bar and bathroom by the beach, sure came in handy.We highly recommend this home.
