The kitchen was fully equipped. The beds and pillows were incredibly comfortable. The house was immaculately kept, and Neka, the housekeeper, was very responsive. The beach is only steps away. It’s very convenient with kids. You can hear the ocean from the porches. My only complaint is I would have liked 1 extra set of clean, dry towels for our stay. 1 towel each for 6 days was not enough. We tried hanging them on the line outside but it rained on them and they never really dried out. Otherwise, we were very happy with our time there. We would highly recommend and hope to go back soon!

Karin and the whole Touchstone Team were incredible. Everything was so easy and beautiful. The location of the house is steps from the ocean and the second house on the property is great for friends and family to travel together. We traveled with small children and the rentals were easy, all the beach toys, boogy boards, chairs and umbrellas were awesome! Best part of the trip, being able to relax in this beautiful home! Highly recommmend staying at Touchstone!

Best Beach Vacation EVER!!!

We had the absolute best time at Touchstone!!!The closeness to the beach is perfect. It is so so easy to get there. Everything you need is in the beach to shed, including chairs, toys, snorkel, etc. The daily housekeeping is such a treat, we didn’t meet Neka and Clint but they are much appreciated!Thank you Frankie for the coconuts! We all enjoyed the coconut water. The beds and pillows are so comfy. Kitchen had everything we needed even spices etc. Living room very cozy and plenty big. Lots of games played around the kitchen table and memories made at Touchstone!Thank you Karina!

Relaxing stay

Touchstone was the perfect spot for our family of 5. Steps away from the beach made it very convenient with small children and appreciated having access to the shed of toys and boogie boards. The property is well maintained and we enjoyed the fresh coconuts. This was our first time to Harbour Island and appreciated all the information provided. Thank you Karina!

The Dreamiest Escape

This was truly one of our family’s most memorable family vacations 〰 Karina was so attentive and every step of our stay was truly wonderful. The house is even better than it looks online. Beautifully styled, clean, comfortable and just literal steps to the beach. We loved the staff who came for housekeeping and to garden daily. We enjoyed fresh coconuts from the yard daily…and enjoyed rum cocktails on the porch each afternoon. We will absolutely be back as soon as we are able. Thank you to Karina for making this such an easy, comfortable and beautiful experience. The Goin Family x

Book this gorgeous home immediately!

We loved our stay at Touchstone. The house is like an advertisement for a home decor magazine. The location can't be beat ... we watched the sun come up and down on the beach (which is a 22 second walk from the house if you're walking slowly). Karina is super easy to communicate with and very patient with lots of questions/requests for recommendations. We can't wait to go back ...

Harbour Island is such a magical place. This was our first time to the island, and certainly will not be the last. Karina and David's place was the perfect home base for our little family of 4. It is cozy and beautifully decorated. You are right next to the beach, yet a short (5 min) golf cart ride to restaurants and shops in town. We loved the outdoor shower! Karina was very helpful with recommendations for restaurants, activities, even a masseuse who came right to the house. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Awesome House!

My family had an amazing stay at Touchstone House! The location is perfect and literally steps away from one of the most beautiful (and uncrowded) beaches in the world. It is a quiet area which we loved, yet only a 5 minute golf cart ride to virtually any restaurant on the island. The house is very clean and well appointed and had everything we needed to be comfortable. We especially enjoyed the outside patio spaces so we could remain outside in the fresh air even after our beach time was done each day. Karina was a wonderful host and extremely communicative leading up to, during, and after our stay. The rest of the staff (housekeeping / groundskeepers) were also fantastic and communicated well. Harbour Island is such a cool place and staying at Touchstone House made our first visit there even more special. We hope to be back soon!
