Reviews

  • Zywiolek from Bahamas (8/10)

    the location is beyond perfect.
    the bungalow is on a super beautiful Long Beach which is basically empty.
    long walks and the magical blues are endless 🙂

  • Marleen from Netherlands (8/10)

    Loved the houseboats (although bed was small), surroundings, kayaking to Chat ‘N Chill and the Coconut Club, daytrip was beautiful, staff was very welcoming

  • Sabine from United States (9/10)

    The location can’t be beat – waking up to the crashing Ocean waves – turquoise water and pristine white sand – feeling like we have the beach to ourselves.. on the other side the marina and easy access to kayaks to explore creeks, a snorkeling hole and a beach with sting rays. Marie with guest services helped us find the perfect full day tour replete with sharks, iguanas, snorkeling and a gorgeous sand bank, and set us up with a rental car for a day on the mainland to explore little Exuma and the Tropic of Cancer beach. All meals were delicious and fresh – lobster, snapper, mahi mahi, and plenty of great options for kids too and fresh fruit and vegetables. It was amazing!!

  • Karen from United States (9/10)

    Great location. Easy to get around to all parts of the island, beaches and things to do via boat service offered.
    Staff are amazing! Food was delicious and great value. Perfect place to unwind and connect with nature and the beauty of the Exumas.

  • Zenith from France (9/10)

    The unique location and the friendliness of the staff.

  • Fabíola from Bahamas (7/10)

    The view, the location

  • Shirley from Bahamas (9/10)

    We rented one of their houseboats and it was very nice – roomy for 2, great air conditioning, very comfortable bed and over all a nice change to the typical "hotel" room. We just wanted a quick 4 night getaway and this "rustic" resort fit the need perfectly… What is missing in amenities it makes up for in staff!! Both Annice and Sterling were amazing hosts as they served most of the meals, showed us around, told us about the area, made our drinks, prepared our boat for our stay — basically they did it all! Both staff members were amazingly friendly and ready to go above and beyond to make sure your stay was enjoyable. I know there were others also, like the chef came out the first night and introduced her self and checked on our thoughts of her meal but for the most part almost all interaction during our stay was with Annice and Sterling – A++

  • Sorcha from United Kingdom (8/10)

    Loved the location! Loved the staff! (Especially Anise and Jada) Rooms were lovely and just overall had an amazing time

  • Janet from United States (8/10)

    The room porch overlooking the ocean! It is an especially beautiful location.

    Lovely staff; particularly Bri, Mari, Arista, and Julia.

  • Brian from United States (9/10)
