Palaces in Exuma

"Great location for family vacation. Beach and pier combo made it amazing and better than other close by options. There is a lot to do right out the back door- swimming, fishing and kayaking. If you’re a cook you will love the outdoor kitchen. The host was very attentive and supplied a lot of useful info for our trip. "

"Our unit was amazing, very clean and spacious. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Emeraly Bay beach was a little choppy but overall the entire property was beautiful."

"Here’s a polished version that keeps your tone but tightens it up and smooths the flow:We loved our 6-night stay at this magical beachfront property in Exuma. The home had every amenity we could possibly need, and the kitchen was fully stocked with all the cookware and utensils. Everything was immaculate, and the beds were incredibly comfortable. One of our favorite things was being able to relax on the couch with a book while looking out at the ocean.We spent most of our time outdoors, enjoying the crystal-clear blue water and taking the kayaks out each day. One morning, we even spotted a turtle, which was such a special experience.Jack was extremely helpful and provided great recommendations and information throughout our stay. He was a gracious host, and his manager, Kay, made arrival seamless by helping us get checked in and stocking the house with groceries ahead of time—it made settling in so easy.We would absolutely stay at Two Turtles again on our next trip to this beautiful, turquoise-water island."

"The staff was so nice and welcoming, best I have experienced."

"Bayview Villas is absolutely fantastic and definitely the best spot on the island! We travelled all around Exuma in one of Charlie’s hire cars and couldn’t find anywhere that compared. The location is perfect - quiet, relaxing, with beautiful views. The water is so blue, and we loved having the kayaks to explore the sandbar and islands opposite.The villa was spotlessly clean, spacious, and had everything our family of four needed and more. Charlie is the best host we've ever had. He is friendly and helpful, and nothing was ever too much trouble.We had such an amazing time and would love to come back again in the future. If you're planning a trip to Exuma, we can't recommend staying here highly enough.Thank you so much for an unforgettable stay. We loved every minute!"

"Nice breakfast , good dinner. Very Nice staff. Loved the included boat ride over to stocking island, went twice . Had a blast ! "

"The beach view was somewhat restricted by another building. The property was very clean and the beach access was breathtaking. Most definitely would stay here again."

"This is a difficult review for me to write because the host is genuinely a very kind and a lovely person, which we truly appreciated throughout our stay. The property itself is in a fantastic location, directly in front of a private beach area with access to pristine water and kayaks available for use. The setting is beautiful and peaceful, and it is definitely one of the strongest points of the stay. The screened porch is also a real highlight, you can comfortably enjoy being outside without dealing with bugs, which makes it a great space to relax. However, the unit itself feels quite dated and would benefit from some renovation. The kitchen is very old, and the bathroom is in particular need of repair and updating. The description and photos online do not fully reflect the current condition of these areas. I’ve also added some pictures of the kitchen and bathroom so future guests can make a more informed decision before booking. Overall, there is a lot of potential thanks to the amazing location and outdoor spaces, but the interior would need significant updating to match expectations and fully reflect the listing."

"I can’t say enough great things about this property and the hosts. The Villa was spotless, perfectly located and well appointed with everything you need to enjoy the beach and all that Exuma has to offer. It’s literally right on the beach facing Elizabeth Harbor and a beautiful sunrise each morning. The beds are comfortable (even the Murphy bed) which is a must. Our family of 4 were very comfortable with my 2 daughters sharing the Murphy bed. It’s perfectly located near Georgetown and some of the most beautiful beaches and cool restaurants. Michael and Roseanne are 5 Star hosts in every way. They were available to answer all our questions, make recommendations and give advice on any aspect of our trip. They even provide a daily post of the weather and best places or activities to make the most of the day! We loved this trip and much of this was due to our stay at Bella Vista. If you’re a first time visitor to Exuma or want to dig deep on all Exuma can offer, stay here!!!"
