Description

2 Bedrooms, 2 Bathrooms, Sleeps 6 "Cupids Key" Vistas (unit 2C at the Buttonwood Reserve Oceanfront Condominium Resort) is a top-floor unit, that includes a full-surround two-ocean view, facing west over the Caribbean for the sunset and east to the Atlantic for the sunrise. Enjoy stunning ocean views from every room through eight-foot glass sliders and six-foot bay windows. The expansive private decks also feature spectacular sea views in every direction. Buttonwood Reserve is a 10 minute walk from three restaurants: Delish, Leorose Sunset Beach Bar and Grill, and Mel's Snack Shack. Buttonwood Reserve has access to two beaches. On the Atlantic side is a world-class, 3-mile-long pink-sand beach, pristine without a single house. It is accessed via our private, golf-carts only driveway. All condominiums at Buttonwood come with access to a fleet of golf carts at no charge. On the Caribbean side of our property, almost in your front yard, is a second beach. This beach is small and rather rocky, so not so aesthetic, but the water is as calm as a lake and this shore is perfect for snorkeling, kayaking, paddle boarding, and fishing. Our resort-style pool is just steps from your condominium. This beautiful landscaped pool is heated for comfortable swimming year round. We just completed a new pickleball court! Our mini-gym is equipped with a multifunction smith machine cage with precision linear bearings, an Olympic weight rack, dip station, and a cable routed pulley system. Guests also have access to dumbbells and a fitness/yoga mat. This is an open-air gym (fully roofed and with three walls). The professionally decorated interior of this vacation rental is elegantly furnished, modern, warm and comfortable. The east end of the great room features a modern, open-plan, luxurious kitchen finished in stainless steel and black granite. The kitchen, dining area, and living room have magnificent ocean views in every direction, with water sparkling as far as the eye can see. The master bedroom is features a large upholstered window seat with magnificent panoramic views of the Caribbean, a perfect spot to relax with a book or morning coffee, or watch the sunset over the sea. The master is furnished with a king bed and equipped with an en-suite full bath. The master has a private door leading to the deck over the Caribbean. The guest bedroom also features a large window seat with a spectacular view, this one overlooking the Atlantic. The bedroom has a full en-suite bath (which can be accessed from the hall as well). It is furnished with twin beds that can be converted into a king. There is also a queen size sofa bed in the living room. Buttonwood Reserve comes with kayaks and a paddle board for use on the sea or in our pond. Bicycles are also provided. Our retired groundskeeper, Patrick, is an expert fisherman and will take you out fishing in his boat for a half day or full day (extra charges apply.) Grill your catch fresh on our outdoor gas grill near the pool. Just a mile from Buttonwood Reserve is the village of James Cistern, which has three grocery stores, a town dock where the fisherman bring their catch every day, a produce stand, and Kel D's sports bar. James Cistern is also the home of Stubb’s famous barbecue, now called Tamarind Tree Grill, every Friday and Saturday, which is not to be missed. Three restaurants are within walking distance! Buttonwood Reserve is an easy 15-minute drive from Governor’s Harbour, the main town on the island. Governor’s Harbour has a charming collection of 19th century homes and churches overlooking its historic harbor. Other restaurants in the area include Pascal’s at boutique resort Sky Beach Club, Tippy’s (international and fusion), 1648 Bar & Grille at French Leave (fine dining for lunch and dinner), The Buccaneer, The Rainbow Inn (steaks and Monday night brick oven pizza night), the Front Porch, Hot Buns bakery and sandwich shop, and Da Perk Café (café and sandwich shop). Minimum age to book this property is : 20

Beautiful experience at Buttonwood

January 2024

Great experience at Buttonwood. Pictures we viewed when making our decision were accurate. Wonderful private beach that is part of miles and miles of remote beaches. Easy to grab one of buttonwood’s golf cart, for free, to take to the private/remote beach. Real close to two bar/restaurants that certain days of week have music. One of thee places, Delich, has unbelievable staff and food right on the beach!! Very nice kitchen we used to cook once in a while. Beautiful views from patio to watch sunset with a drink. The staff a buttonwood is most friendly and responsive. We didn’t use the pool, but a number of other guests did and they seemed to really enjoy its cleanliness and comfortable temperature.

Buttonwood Reserve

Buttonwood Reserve was an excellent choice for us. Very clean, plenty of amenities, walkable to the Caribbean & Atlantic beaches, and food/beverage. Location is great for exploring numerous beaches and other island feature within a 1/2 hour drive north or south.

Some good, some not good

January 2023

We rented the entire complex. It was a great place for a family reunion. The view was magnificent and it was really fantastic to be able to go to the roaring Atlantic and the calm Caribbean. The golf carts were a great help and there were plenty of kayaks and paddle boards available.
There are several things though that were inconvenient. The airport and the only food market of any size is a 40 minute drive. If the supply boat hasn't been in recently it is out of stock of some things. The price of food and drink is three times what you would pay in the US.
There are a few small restaurants nearby that have very limited menus and are very expensive. We went to a great restaurant in Governor's Harbor called The Buccaneer Club.(20 minute drive). It was expensive but we didn't mind paying for it because the menu was diverse and the food was good.
Unless there's a stiff breeze the no-see-ums are going to get you at or after dusk. Bring date and baby oil and lather up if you're going to walk outside from one condo to the other.

Great stay!

We were with a group and rented all of Buttonwood, including the Main House. It’s a beautiful property and it accommodated our large family fabulously. The golf carts were perfect (& needed!) for the trek to the beautiful private Atlantic beach. The kayaks and paddle board were a great addition. The condo seemed to have all the amenities you would need (although we didn’t cook all way.) Brett and Smitty were available if we needed anything and took care of us. Despite needing bug spray, we’d stay at Buttonwood again.
