GUMELEMI BLUFF
Harbour Island, Bahamas
4 Bedrooms with Bathrooms En Suite (Sleeps 8)
 

Gumelemi Bluff is not only one of the beautiful houses on idyllic Harbour Island but its location is one of the most sought after. Sitting high on a bluff, this lovely house overlooks distant islands and the famous bone fishing flats which are fun to explore at high tide in one of the property’s sea kayaks. The views are gorgeous at any time of the day but they are especially spectacular at sunset. What could be a more glorious way to end the day than watching the sun slip into the bay while having drinks at the pool or from the thatched "honey hut" overlooking the water?

Built on one level and fully air-conditioned, the main house has 3 bedrooms with bathrooms en suite and the pool cottage, which is connected to the main house by a bougainvillea covered pergola, has an additional bedroom and bath. A 2,800 sq. ft. terrace with numerous comfortable chaise lounges, palapas and seating areas surrounds the fresh water pool. There is an outdoor dining area under a covered porch, which also has a comfy seating area, as well as another under the perola with a picnic table and benches. The beach is just a few minutes walk and offshore, the reefs are filled with tropical fish so snorkeling here is great. When building Gumelemi Bluff the owners’ attention to detail was meticulous and is evident throughout. The result is a beautiful home in a dazzling and serene setting
