We had an amazing time at Eminence on High - the house is beautiful with priceless views! The kitchen is very well appointed with two gathering rooms and a wrap around porch to take in the beauty. Our group of 8 cooked in most nights and it was more beautiful and relaxing than any restaurant. Christine was very friendly and available if we needed anything. We highly recommend Eminence on High and would definitely plan another stay here!

The view was stunning and the space was beautiful for our family of 11.The place advertises as sleeps 12 which it does but you have to pay extra for any persons over 6 . So I believe it should be listed as sleeps 6 with additional cost for carriage house which sleeps 6 more . One of the reasons we chose this place was because it had a hot tub . In several reviews it was stated that the hot tub was not in working order . I specifically gave the host 3 months notice that we were interested in the use of the hot tub. We were informed two days before arrival that the hot tub was not working . Granted they sent someone out twice to try and get it working which we really appreciated but to no avail . So it was slightly disappointing to the entire family . They also advertise a chefs kitchen which was beautiful and a lovely space for all of us to hangout , however the chefs stove does not work . We’ve been to many Vrbo places and I feel like this one was stocked minimally . There was one bath towel per person and 6 beach towels total for the 11 of us . In summary it was a beautiful place, don’t get me wrong . The outside space is beautiful and the dining area was perfect for our family . They also provided an escort from the car barge to the villa which was extremely helpful . The road up to the villa is rocky but we expected that and didn’t mind that at all. The communication with the host was excellent and very timely . We enjoyed the proximity to the national forest as well .

The communication with property manager and house caretaker was great. Eddie was a great host and spent plenty of time getting us familiar with the house and all the great amenities. The views are spectacular and the house is absolutely beautiful! We had two families with a total of 8 people and there was more than enough room for everyone. Although the house is not exactly convenient to the hustle and bustle, it is perfectly situated to get away from the busy areas while still being able to easily access the beaches and still fairly easy access to eating establishments and shopping. A Jeep is absolutely necessary, but that is the case for almost everywhere on the island. There is an extra charge for using the ac in the kitchen and dining area (we did not choose to use it), but we did not need it as long as you open up the windows and doors while in those areas. The breezes through the home are perfect and all the bedrooms have ac so you will be perfectly comfortable. We also did not add the hot tub use while we were there, but I would recommend doing that since the pool is a little chilly (due to being shaded most of the day) and the views from the hot tub would a great way to end the day. The huge patios, porches, etc are perfect for taking in morning sunrises and evening moonlit cocktail hours. The house has beach chairs and floats that we used daily. We highly recommend this beautiful home and the amazing staff that treated us so well for our 7 day stay!

We have always wanted to stay in a home on Bordeaux Mountain and this is the finest one by far. The cool temperatures made it a very interesting stay. We went and bought some hoodies for the cool nights. We stayed here two weeks and ended up cooking in all but two nights because the house was so perfect. You must splurge for the heated pool and hot tub! Kitchen is perfectly equipped for any chef to include All Clad pots and pans.
