Holiday rentals with a kayak in The Bahamas

Spectacular beachfront setting with open ocean views. Very private setting. Although there are other homes on Banks Road it felt like we had the beach to ourselves. Several good restaurants and pristine, sheltered beaches are just a short drive away. Home is partially updated (new appliances, new TV, new outdoor furniture and new covered beachfront deck with 4 lounge chairs) and features a spiral staircase to get to 2nd floor where the 2 bedrooms and a bathroom are located. We were very happy with our stay. Rachel was highly responsive and we would welcome the opportunity to visit again.

We enjoyed having a private beach with an amazing view. It was an easy drive to the ferries. We recommend getting a car. The house manager, Agatha, and the hosts were very quick to respond to any questions prior to and during our stay. 5 of us stayed comfortably.

Amazing place to stay in Eleuthera. Absolutely stunning panoramic views of the ocean, and great living space with everything you need. Very well equipped kitchen which is appreciated as we cooked most of our meals, and a gas stove that came in handy as we could still use during an island-wide power outage (there was only one during our stay). Local caretaker (Derrick) was a phenomenal help, even helping my husband and I track down some local fish and lobster to cook. Would definitely stay here again!

If it were possible to rate Shannon higher I would. Shannon’s place was neat and had all the amenities including solar and high speed internet. Shannon was great at communication and was extremely responsive. When we checked in she had mangoes and papaya and water waiting for us and she brought over brownies on the second morning and a lovely blueberry cake our third day. Everyday she offered great advice and her guidebook was very informative. The kitchen was fully stocked and we were able to find everything we needed. She also had tons of things in the bathroom. Including razors and shampoo and bug spray which you will need on the islands. I can’t think of anything we needed that Shannon did not provide. She’s a great host.

Our stay in Abaco was beyond perfect! We brought our three young children and Frank did everything possible to make us happy and comfortable. The house is absolutely beautiful and located on a peaceful, serene slice of this world! We enjoyed swimming, paddle boarding, swinging in the hammock, playing in the sand, long walks, grilling, and exploring the rest of the island. Highly, highly, highly recommend!

Our first trip to Exuma could not have been more perfect! Villa Seabreeze was exactly as pictured and delivered such an exceptional experience on multiple levels! We were greeted by sea turtles and nurse sharks our very first evening and continued to be visited by the sea life every day of our stay . . . definitely a highlight. Having a private sandy beach made snorkeling in the "backyard" super convenient and the additional sundeck and outdoor shower allowed us to escape the sand while still soaking up the rays. This home is definitely off the beaten path but so, so worth being able to "get away" from the crowds of the resorts that are "closer in." And there was something very special about being able to look across the water and see only land and sea. We will be sharing Villa Seabreeze with all our family and friends in the hopes that they, too, can experience such an incredible little slice of heaven should they find themselves in Exuma! Thank you, thank you, Deb and Eric!

The location is perfect. Having never been to Exuma, we wanted to stay centrally located. We were able to explore the whole island from Edahlia's. Being right on the beach was awesome! Morning coffee watching the sunrise over the ocean from the deck.... sweet! So many beautiful beaches to choose from! Capricorn Beach in front of the house was always nice. We had it all to ourselves. We always felt safe and the few neighbors were friendly and helpful. These are not deluxe accommodations. If you are looking for that, those are available. You can spend as much as you want. The home was clean and comfortable. We will definitely return to Exuma and Edahlia's place will be the first one we check for availability.

This is one of my favorite air bnbs. The location was perfect. Just a few minutes away from tourist spots, but far enough away you didn’t feel in The middle of it. The house is one of the cleanest I have stayed in, and for the tropics that is everything. The house has everything you would need. Arlington was very responsive, helpful and had great suggestions. It is sitting on the water at a local swimming spot. We loved making new friends. The local kids were so fun! I will rent this place again. Thanks for a great stay!

This is our second time staying at Buttonwood and it was just as wonderful! The cottage is cozy, clean, and perfectly located. We loved waking up to the ocean breeze and spending our days exploring the island. Marielbys is an amazing host—responsive, kind, and thoughtful. We’re already looking forward to our next visit!

We had such a lovely stay at Serenity Cottage. It truly was a serene and beautiful space and location. We loved the close access to the flats for strolling and fly fishing. The house had everything you may need, with comfortable beds and cold air. Cheree and her house manager were both incredibly kind and helpful. We will definitely be back!

Care is the thing that most comes to mind. The care that went into the home before our stay. The care that Torin and Joanne put into everything they do. The care we were treated with during the stay by both. Whether it was a great recommendation for home made pizza,setting up a golf cart for our extended stay or a recommendation to watch a YouTube video to catch up on current events. We truly felt cared and appreciated the conversation so much that we have already booked a return stay. Best equipped vacation home we have ever experienced. Thank you a million times over.

We had the most wonderful time and experience! We enjoyed our excursion with DJ and walking in the bay and on the beach. Recommend getting a golf cart while there to explore and get to the restaurants. Ida has them available. They were so responsive, as we had lots of questions. They picked us up and took us to the airport, which was wonderful and Ida showed us around the island before taking us to our cottage. Beautiful views of the bay off the back of the house and of the beach from the front porch. We would love to go back. So peaceful and perfect! Highly recommend!

The place is more than beautiful. The property is located on a beachfront lot. The beach itself is really serene, we’ve seen only 3 people on it over the 4 days we’be passed there…. And it was Christmas… The villa is spacious for our party of two and could ideally accomodate a family. You’ll have every accessories you need to spend 2-3 weeks vacation there. We wish we’d book for longer but decided to visit a couple of Bahamian islands on our 10 day visit. There are lots of good restaurants nearby but a car is really a must if you want to reabh them easily. We liked afternoon munches at Potlatch Club, dinners at Bougainvillea and, of course, relax snacks at Tippy’s. Barbara is a great host and did everything she could to accomodate our (belated by the airline company) arrival and departure. Her manager, Winifred, is also really pleasant to deal with and efficent. I definetly would go again and recommend the place.

Our stay was wonderful. The beaches are beautiful and many times we were the only two people on the beach. This is a very quiet island a great place to unwind. Henley is an exceptional host. He was on the island as well and shared a lot of information about the island. He even took us on a Sunday drive . The bed was comfortable, and the kitchen had everything we need. We highly recommend this cottage.

Lona is a superstar !!! The best host in Airbnb so far, lots of tips and great flexibility. The house is right in front of the water and have the best views for sunsets ever !!!!!

House was super cute, great access to the water. We could see sea turtles from the shower. Spencer and Brendi were very quick to respond. We would definitely stay here again.
