11 steps to the Ocean
11 steps from Harbour Lights Villa is Elizabeth Harbour and our quiet bay . The villa is a 1,788 square foot 2 bedroom, 2 ½ bath home with all amenities of this upscale resort community.
There is absolutely no smoking allowed in the villa.
February Point is a gated/security-monitored destination resort. The property features tennis courts, private beaches, two infinity pools and a jacuzzi.
There is a spa and a modest fitness center. The Rusty Anchor Restaurant offers casual waterfront dining.
Harbour Lights Villa features vaulted ceilings with fans, an office nook, and a fully-equipped kitchen with two sinks and granite countertops. There is a full-sized Viking refrigerator and microwave, a dishwasher, and a dining area with a teak dining table with seating for six. A separate laundry room contains a stackable washer/dryer and utility sink. The upper floor has a spacious master suite with a king-sized bed and features a large bathroom with a tiled shower and free-standing tub. The guest bedroom features a queen size bed and ensuite bathroom with tile shower. Both rooms have ceiling fans and each floor has a dedicated central air conditioning system. A former enormous dressing room adjacent to the master bedroom has been converted to a third bedroom with a double futon for extra guests. The 773 square foot outdoor space includes full wrap-around patios on upper and lower decks, perfect for watching the Regatta action and the beautiful water! A teak patio dining table for six is available for outside dining and the patio includes a full-sized propane BBQ. In the technology and entertainment department, the villa offers a smart TV with access to Netflix (bring your password), Amazon Prime Video, and five television channels. There is also a DVD player with an extensive DVD library and super-fast fiberoptic WIFI.
Great Exuma offers the most beautiful beaches and water in the Bahamas (perhaps the world). Take advantage of this by renting watercraft and going to the nearby secluded beaches on Stocking Island or taking a boat tour to see the swimming pigs! These activities can be arranged in nearby George Town, about a mile away. There you can also find grocery stores, banks/ATMS, churches, a gas station, bars, liquor stores, restaurants and shops. The villa changed ownership in April of 2019, and the new owners have worked very hard to restore it to its original grace and charm following many years off the rental market. They have renovated the interior to its original casual contemporary elegance. The exterior had just been painted a charming Caribbean canary yellow with white trim.

The property is located in a gated community with courteous staff at the office, which helped us with a slip for a rented boat at the marina. felt safe at all times. the house was clean and steps from the water. Had a great time. Thx
We had a blast, and enjoyed the property! A quick walk to the pool & restaurant. The place was great for kids and easy to keep clean. We loved Exuma and will go back for sure!
We love staying in February Point for the location and beauty of the houses right on the water with a dock to keep your rental boat. Beautiful views from the house inside and out. Amazing stay once again.
I believe this spot in February Point is the best location on the island. This is one of the few beach front locations in a gated community. Although we felt safe everywhere on Exuma, it was nice to have the secluded neighborhood and quiet beauty of our own little bay to snorkel. The neighborhood is centrally located on the island and so close to Georgetown. Beautiful memories.
The view of the ocean from the house, waterfront and upstairs balcony is worth the price! Comfortable beds and nice bathrooms. Great to have in-unit washer and dryer. The house floors could have been cleaner and needs a little maintenance (doors hard to open and lock), outdoor furniture is weathered, but it is beachfront so the weather probably ages them fast. The owner was consistently slow to answer questions both pre-arrival and when we had an emergency on the last day of our stay, but eventually emailed me back so all worked out well.
This property is amazing. Very well appointed house. Every kitchen item you could need. Very clean. The view is amazing. We watched for turtles every morning. The location is great close to Georgetown and kind of in the middle of the island so everything was within a 1/2 hr. Lots of beach toys at the house. We had a very relaxing vacation
The view from the Villa is beautiful. Everything was as described. Some basic cooking spray & such would’ve been nice, larger coffee pot it’s very small & I would’ve loved a TV in the master for night time being that we had teens using the one downstairs. Just suggestions. Our stay was great & you literally have beautiful crystal clear water right outside the patio door.
The place is as described. Literally 11 steps from the ocean and loved seeing turtles swimming every morning! Georgetown is working on roads so we did lose water for a whole day but I think that’s an anomaly.. we did lose power and water on occasion so plan accordingly! A broom for the sand and additional towels would be nice but the washer and dryer is very convenient. The staff at the security were lovely and having the restaurant on-site was not only delicious but so convenient!
This is our second time staying at 11 steps to the Ocean and we really enjoy the place. The cove in front of the house is great for views, swimming and snorkeling along the docks. We have seen starfish, eagle rays, sting rays, turtles and even sharks from the shore / balcony. If you venture over to the marina, you are likely to see several friendly turtles when you visit. The beach club area is nice for a calm beach, pool and hot tub. The food is good at the Rusty Anchor though this last time we didn't think it was as good as we remembered - especially for the high price. There is also a pool with lounge chairs that is 2 doors down from the rental that is for community use. There is often no one using it so it is like you have a private pool. Location is great to access the entire island (including little Exuma) by car and a quick trip to Georgetown for groceries, booze or restaurants. We were able to have our private chartered boat tour pick us up at the marina at February point for our trip which was very nice. It is great for us to have a washing machine at the house. We washed beach towels and swim gear most days. Suggested improvements would be to change the master bathroom shower and main kitchen sink fixtures that have very low water pressure (others ok), better/bigger beach towels, bigger coffee maker, replace inflatable paddle board / add kayak. Last note - as of January 2025, there are an excessive amount of coffee filters - no need to bring/buy any :)
We usually go to an all inclusive in Jamaica (over a dozen times) but we agreed to try something different this year. I am so glad we did. Exuma is breathtaking. The house was lovely and in the perfect location. Just a short drive to restaurants and the market.
The house was clean and there was plenty of household items to make our stay comfortable. The temp was comfortable and loved having the washer and dryer on premise. The sofa was ok but definitely had wear and tear. The TV is very small. I know it’s insignificant but after a long day in the Sun, we just wanted to chill out and watch a movie.
The stairs in this house are a tragic accident waiting to happen. They are dark in color and there is nothing to transition each step. They blended together making it difficult to tell where it ended. There were a few near-misses with accidental falls.
The bedrooms are lovely and plenty big enough. Plenty of space to unpack. The beds were so hard and uncomfortable. This was a complaint amongst the 4 of us.
The master bathroom was huge as well the shower. However the toilet is in a “closet” and your knees literally touch the door when sitting. The toilet is loose and wiggled when you sat down. One day there was a terrible sour smell. Could not figure out where it was coming from. We ended up keep the toilet door shut and the fan running. Seemed to go away. Maybe the loose toilet was letting sewer fumes in?
Decent house for the price point. Location was perfect.
We loved the house, it had everything we needed for our 12 night stay. Gorgeous views from every angle. Great location on the island and nice to have amenities available.
Need a more accurate street address. Looked for “ Eleven Steps to the Beach” but couldn’t find that address. Didn’t realize until day 2 it had a different name. A larger coffee pot would be my only other suggestion.Thank you!
This place was amazing!!! This was our 4th trip to Exuma and we have stayed at many great places but this was by far the best! Way better in person! The property had everything we needed to cook, beach chairs, floats, tons of movies, and the best part is you can walk right out the back and be at the beach. We will be staying at this property every time we come back. Also the water does get hot you just have to give it a few minutes to heat up. This is consistent with ALL of the properties we’ve stayed at on the island, that’s just how it is there.
February Point is best option for near town accommodations with a secure place to stay. Area is very nice with easy access to all the area has to offer. Would stay here again!
Beautiful location. Lots of space. Only reason for not giving 5* is a few extra amenities would be nice. Suggestions like beach towels, soap/shampoo/body wash dispensers in shower, lacks hot water and water pressure in shower frequently, a few new pots, pans & baking sheets, a couple beach chairs.
Absolutely beautiful home and location. Property manager was very responsive which was appreciated. Home had everything we needed. Thanks for a great stay!

February Point Fun
Our stay at the duplex was a good choice for our party of four. Waking up every morning to a beautiful view of the harbor is a great start to the day. The location is convenient to exploring both the north and south parts of the island and getting supplies from town. The home itself has nice indoor or outdoor gathering spaces and the neighborhood is well maintained as are the amenities. No complaints :)
I cannot come close to describing what a wonderful stay we had at this home. It is beautiful inside and out. Everything was exactly as promised in the description. The location is perfect. I would stay here again on our next visit.
