Further details for this vacation house rental in Great Exuma, Bahamas

Sandals Emerald Bay & Garnd Isle Resort: The house is approximately 2.5 miles from the new Sandals Emerald Bay, Greg Norman Golf, Spa and Marina, as well as Grand Isle Resort. The golf course is a Greg Norman designed course. A new grocery store nearby stocks all the items you will need for a vacation, but you will certainly want to eat out and some of the new restaurants. Or have our local Bahamian cook come to the house to prepare a meal for you. Or arrange for Paterson, our caretaker, to take you fishing for the freshest fish, lobster or conch. Take a look at our main website at www.exumabeachrental.com for more information.

Excursions with Pat (on his boat -- The4Cs): There are a host of excursions available during your stay. Our caretaker, Paterson Smith, is a fisherman and has a boat for tours and various excursions. He is a life-long Exuma resident and a great resource for all things regarding Exuma. He has a 30 foot boat and can plan a day (or half-day) for your group to head out by boat to the various Cays; to the Exuma Land & Sea Park; fishing, conch and/or lobster gathering; a trip to Staniel Cay (also the home of Thunder-ball Grotto (extraordinary caves for exploration, etc., where the James Bond movie “Thunderball” was filmed)); Sampson Cay (home of the swimming pigs); Iguana Cay (these iguanas are more like small dinosaurs); Sandy Cay (where Pirates of the Caribbean was filmed) as well as a tours of the islands and cays owned by various celebrities (Tim McGraw & Faith Hill; David Copperfield; Johnny Depp; Nicholas Cage, etc.). There are many more things to see and do and you should speak with Pat well before your arrival.

Recent Renovation: Note that in the Fall 2011, the house was partially renovated. Specifically, the free standing pod, which contains two bedrooms and one shared bathroom, was gutted from floor to ceiling. The newly constructed unit now contains two newly constricted 13 x 13 bedrooms and one new, oversized shared bathroom. Each bedroom has a queen bed. Please see our main website at www.exumabeachrental.com for the latest info on the house and Exuma generally.

HomeAway Employee Stayed Here!

Review Submitted: August 29, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
Great Home! Very large with a total of 5 bedrooms. We had a great time! The home is nicely equipped with all the comforts of home, including a well stocked kitchen, comfortable furniture inside and outside, and they even supply beach towels (many beach homes require renters to bring their own.)

But the most amazing part of this home is the beach! When we walked into the living area and saw the three sets of glass doors we were overtaken by the most amazing view we've ever seen? Paradise! The water is that gorgeous Caribbean blue color. The photos do not do this beach justice!

The hosts, Kim and Leo are very personable and professional. It's apparent that they have anticipated all of your needs while you are renting their home. They also have a hard working, dedicated staff to take care of anything that happens while you are there. They'll also serve as your tour guide and they'll even prepare you a wonderful meal! I would not hesitate to rent this home again.

"We had a great time and everything went smoothly. The house was perfect for our needs and we had large dinners there every night. Pat was a real character and we all did have fun with him.

The weather was gorgeous the last week and a half we were there."

“It was awesome to go there. Planning next year already. Your house was just wonderful. I am curious what is the best step to buy a home there. I would love to own one and do what you do and rent it out. Got any suggestions? I am going to refer people to your home.”
