Our amazing week at Exuma Blue
Guest: Mel & Rich

Review Submitted: 01/26/10
We booked a last minute trip to the Bahamas and lucky for us Exuma Blue was available. The cottage was spotlessly clean and just as it appears in the pictures. Tina showed us amazing hospitality by leaving lots of food in the freezer for us to use, including homemade tamales!!! We were looking for a romantic getaway and that is exactly what we got. Beautiful ocean view from the deck during the day and at night we took in some amazing stargazing. There is lots to do, we took a trip over to Stocking Island and fed the stingrays, did some snorkeling and of course, some exploring!! We couldn't get over the deserted beaches - we had three mile beach all to ourselves. Easy walking distance into town and the grocery store, as well as restaurants. We were sad to come home to winter - and hope we can go again soon. I have already recommended Exuma Blue to friends and family. Thanks for a wonderful experience Tina!!

My husband and I had a fabulous time staying at Exuma Blue. The home was clean, and spacious and had a great view of Elizabeth Harbor. The beaches are absolutley gorgeous and there was hardly anyone on the beaches the whole 9 days we were there. If you are looking for a quiet and relaxing place to vacation come to Georgetown and stay at Exuma Blue. We did a lot of snorkling and swam in the crystal blue water, the beaches were clean, not very many people on the island and not very many restaurants to go to but you MUST go to Santana's just ask the locals where it is and they will tell you, the best grouper (fish) you will ever have. We enjoyed our stay so much and look forward to coming back. Todd/Sue Fountain Hills, AZ

Just got back from a wonderfully relaxing week in Exuma. We stayed at the Exuma Blue Cottage near George Town. The Cottage is clean with all the amenities you could need. It is equipped with all your cooking needs so you will just need to go to the grocery store and everything you need will be in the kitchen. There is onsite laundry, games, beach towels, beach bags, snorkeling gear and sea scooters. There is a Sleep Number bed so every night my husband and I slept as though we were at home in our own bed. There is a large deck on the front of the house with a great view of the water and lots of seating to sit and enjoy the sun and the breeze. There is a beach walking distance from the house along with a few restaurants and a bar. If you are up to a little bit longer of a walk you can walk into George Town. If relaxing, swimming, snorkeling and fishing is your thing this is the place to vacation and the house to rent. We will definitely stay here again!

Wonderful House in Exuma

We have been renting vacation houses for 15 years and Exuma Blue was the most welcoming of all of them. Exuma Blue is a very clean house and it has everything needed to welcome guests. When we arrived there were already three 5 gallon containers with the a cold water dispenser, bath and beach towels, snorkeling equipment, satellite TV with wireless Internet access, paper towels, all the bedding, etc. It was a very pleasant and comfortable arrival. We really enjoyed Exuma and the location of the house is excellent: close to George Town, Stocking Island and halfway in the island. The house keeper, Delwood, went beyond what we expected, picking us up at the airport, and through our stay he was very pleasant and helpful. Thank you.

Tina and Delwood, her man-about-town, made sure we were well accommodated and acclimated to the possibilities of exploring Exuma. The house itself is beautiful, the bed comfortable, the kitchen, dining area and front porch were large, peaceful and relaxing after a day of exploring. Everything was clean and well-maintained, and after seeing the hotels, we were extremely happy that we decided to stay at Exuma Blue. The house is located almost in the middle of the island, so it was easy to get to the main town (GeorgeTown), the hub of nearly all activities on the island. Thanks again for a wonderful stay--thanks again to Delwood, who was friendly, extremely helpful, and courteous!

Exuma Blue, George Town. The ideal Getaway...

I lived for most of January 2011 in Exuma Blue. I was looking for a hideaway to escape to in order to re-charge my batteries and write a business plan for a new venture. Exuma Blue was perfect for this. It's a 15 minute stroll into town and I found this no hardship to complete a couple of times a day. Exuma is a fairly quiet and unspoilt island (outside of Regatta time, I guess) and that is the secret of its success in that you all mix easily with the very friendly and welcoming locals. Ronnie and Hughie at The Two Turtles could not have been better hosts - go there Fridays for BBQ and band. Also take a water taxi from Government Dock over to Stocking Island on Sundays for the Chat N Chill beach bar experience, with a pig roast to go with it. Rake and Scrape at Eddie's on a Monday is a must, as is a visit or two to the Fish Fry which is only 500 metres from Exuma Blue. The house itself has everything you need - a capacious fridge/freezer and oven, dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer, satellite TV, wi-fi and a printer/fax/scanner (Tina, the owner, helpfully told me to bring a HP56 black and HP22 colour printer cartridge as you can't get them on the island). As well as the essentials there is also plenty of outdoor seating on the decking which has a view of the sea and Stocking Island in the distance and even a candle-lit jacuzzi in the bedroom! There are fins, mask and snorkels available and 2 wonderful underwater scooters for lazy snorkelling. Delwood, the agent on the ground here, was at the other end of the phone and looked after me if I needed anything fixing or had any questions. While here I also rented a scooter for a day to explore the islands and went scuba diving with Dive Exuma, a 5 star PADI outfit run by Tamara and Jonathan and based at February Point. The trip to Long Island and wreck dive there and Shark Point dive on the way back were a high point. I had a wonderful time in the Exumas while it froze back home in London and I certainly hope to return. David Roche

I have forced my wife to vacation in the mountains since 2005 and OWED her this trip big time! Our goal was to relax and relax we did. Exuma is one beautiful place and Exuma Blue was the perfect headquarters for our excursions all over the island. The place was exceptionally set up and the addition of Dellwood from HG Properties as our "go to" guy was wonderful. We needed a kayak - it was there the next day in our driveway. A rental car - same. The island itself is a jewel. The short trip over to Stocking Island (which may be the most perfect spot for a beach day in the world) revealed gorgeous beaches to ourselves, cool trails, crystal clear water, and two wonderfully set up places to get the best Bahamamamas in the islands! February Point was a wonderful place to have a nice night out - at the Bamboo Grill - as was the restaurant at the Grande Isle up in Emerald Bay. Awesome. The only question that remains is how soon can we get back!

5 Days In Paradise
Guest: Tracy

Review Submitted: 07/27/10
I just recently returned from 5 greats days staying in 'Exuma Blue'. It was a great experience. The unit was clean and well equipped for my stay. Although it was walking distance to downtown, I chose to rent a car which made my stay much easier. A taxi was arranged for me to meet me at the airport and I felt like I was so special in that Dellwood (my Exuma contact) was so helpful and accommodating. The convenience of having the washer and dryer was great, but found myself bringing home a suitcase of unused clothes. Just stick with the bathing suits and be sure to visit Elvis at the Harbour to take the water Taxi over to Stocking Island. I'm already planning my next trip! Thanks, Tina for a great experience and making things so easy!

Great Honeymoon

Review Submitted: 06/24/10
We had a great time at exuma blue and were sad to leave, hopefully we can return again soon. We found the property consisted of everything necessary for a comfortable long or short term stay, for an adult couple and alot more extra's, such as snorkeling and beach gear and board games. Theres a well stocked kitchen (blender, ice machine, toaster, spare containers, dish washer etc), and comfortable lounge and spacious bedroom and balcony. We barbequed on the balcony for most of our lunches, and then enjoyed a fun dip in the jacquzzi in the evenings, the view from the bedroom, lounge and balcony is amazing. I enjoyed spending time on the swinging chair on the balcony looking at the garden and view of the sea. Direct TV was also fabulous as there were pre-recorded films and other programmes could be recorded too. Local calls are free on the island which was great, and the staff managing the property were also extremely helpful. We did not really go to the beach at the bottom of the road, as there was not too much sand there, but went 20 mins walk further left to jolly hall's great beach. Our honeymoon was better than we could have planned, we made friends with many locals and were taken out by them, fishing and even a boat trip to the cays. A dream location and well worth the visit, and self catering helps as most things such as dinning can become quite expensive on the island. Lastly we just like to thank the host who made the honeymoon, even before arriving by appreciating complications that arose with our airline and going out of her way to help, God's blessings to you and all our new friends in Exuma.

Everything at this propery was top notch and sophisticated while still comfortable and laid back. We were so happy with every aspect of this beautful house, and plan to come back again! You won't be disappointed - after 30 years of travel, my significant other said this was by far the best accomodations he's come across (he doesn't do the mass hotel or resort scene.) We can not wait to come back!!!
