My wife and I decided against staying on New Providence because we wanted a more peaceful and authentic Bahamas location. Coming from the UK, this required taking an additional Bahamasair flight from Nassau to Georgetown. Well worth it.
Exuma has one main road from top to bottom (Querns Highway) and this property is directly on that road. So if you rent a car (recommended because there didn’t seem to be a bus service) it’s hard to get lost.
Our flight from Nassau was delayed so we arrived too late to meet the host. However communication with the owner was good so no problem accessing the property.
The property itself is a beautiful old style house that has been divided into four apartments, two on the ground floor and two above. This apartment is on the ground level with a veranda and literally right on the beach. For most of our stay, we were the only occupants. Someone else stayed on the first floor for some of the 8 days we stayed but that was no problem.
It is spacious, tastefully decorated, good hot shower, two air conditioners, ceiling fans, good wifi, cooking facilities and big fridge, large double bed. I took a large mosquito dome to sleep in (had problems previously in Barbados) but didn’t need it. Only encountered mosquitoes around the property one time at dusk but hardly any, and none came in the house.
The beach is amazing. It looks like a screensaver and is only accessible from other properties that front onto that stretch of beach. Quiet and idyllic
