Two Bedroom with Loft directly on World Famous French Leave Beach

Mon Soleil House sits directly on French Leave Beach, a mile long crescent of pink sand and palm trees that has been ranked top 20 in the world. French Leave Beach is famously well protected by a barrier reef which keeps the surf calm and the water perfectly clear. There are only 7 houses along the full length of this wide, beautiful beach. Mon Soleil is literally 50 feet from the beach. You can’t get any closer to the sand and the water.

Mon Soleil is under new ownership and is scheduled for a full remodel in the fall of 2025. In the meantime, we are offering the property at a modest rent for guests who want this ideal beachfront location and don’t object to the dated elements, including the original 1980's kitchen.

Mon Soleil is located on the Banks Road of Governors Harbour, the most prestigious location on Eleuthera, and just one mile from town. Governors Harbour, the main town on the island, has grocery stores, restaurants, liquor stores, two banks with ATMs, a bakery, gift shops, a dive shop, and a medical clinic. It has a nice little collection of 19th century homes and churches overlooking a picturesque harbor. You can buy fresh fish and lobster every afternoon from fisherman at the town dock. Friday night Fish Fry in Governors Harbour is a street/beach party that brings together all the tourists and locals with food, drink, and dancing in the street. You won’t want to miss it.

Mon Soleil’s main level features a great room with tall windows and glass doors looking out over French Leave Beach and the ocean. The dining table seats 6 and enjoys a beach and ocean view through a wall of glass. The kitchen features a large pass through to the great room and is equipped with a refrigerator, range, oven, and microwave. There is a powder room off the great room, plus an outdoor shower.

Upstairs, Mon Soleil has two bedrooms plus a sleeping loft, and can sleep up to 6. The master has a king bed. The guest bedroom has twin beds. The sleeping loft is furnished with a queen bed. There is a full bathroom upstairs.

Outside, walk out your back door and onto world-famous French Leave Beach with its mile of soft pink sand. Mon Soleil also has a large patio for dining.

Amenities include central AC, WIFI, Apple/Smart TV, washer/dryer, gas grill, 4 lounge chairs, and one kayak.

Incredible location!
Amazing beachfront location on the best beach in the world! The house is dated as clearly described, and could use some fixes/updates, but we didn't mind and didn't distract from enjoying an incredible spot. The beach is literally a few feet from the back door. We loved the outdoor shower after each beach visit.

In the listing for this house it is disclosed that things are a bit outdated. This is true but should not stop you from staying here. The location trumps it all. The beach is truly amazing. You walk out of the house and in 20 steps you're on the beach. For the week we were there we saw maybe 10 people max. Just an awesome spot. Go a mile one way and you run into tippys restaurant. So good. Go the other way a mile and you're in Governors Harbor, which pretty much has everything you need. The house was super clean. Both showers(in/out) were fantastic and the A/C cranks. Everything worked as it should. We focused on cooking breakfast but most other meals we ate out. The kitchen has everything you need to cook any meal. Not to take anything away from the house but you really shouldn't be spending much time in it. Eleutherea is natures beauty at its best and should be explored. I think that French Leave Beach is the most beautiful but we did discover a few others that took our breath away. Make sure you find Tymans charters for an amazing day on the water and don't miss the fish fry on Friday nights in Governors Harbor. Mon Soleil will not disappoint. And Kristin and the rest of the crew at Eleuthera Vacation rentals will have your back for your entire vacation. They were very kind and helpful. Overall a great house with a million dollar location.

Amazing & Unforgettable experience!
This was our first (but definitely not last) time visiting Eleuthera. Mon Soleil was the perfect place to stay, and it’s location directly on French Leave Beach far exceeded our expectations! This home had everything we needed & was immaculately clean throughout. Martha (the property manager) was a pleasure to meet, and made it a point to ensure our experience there was a positive one from check in to check out. We highly recommend staying at Mon Soleil & look forward to returning there sooner than later for another vacation!! Thank you for helping our family to create such amazing forever memories!

Absolutely perfect location. Privacy, right on the beach and close to town and restaurants. We loved the house but as the owner acknowledged, it is quite dated. It is also in a state of disrepair. Nevertheless, we felt the positives outweighed the negatives - - at least for the price

Superb location
Ideal spot, while the listing mentions an upcoming renovation the property is already a great place to stay and I can only imagine it will be even better after the renovation.

Fantastic Vacation Rightbon the Beach
One of the best family vacations that we have had. Beautiful property right on one of the most spectacular beaches in the world. Angelika and Kristen looked after us extremely well as property managers. Thank you so much we really felt as though this was a second home.
