Reviews don't do this place any justice. You really need to reserve this house and come see it for yourself. Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful. The owners did not spare any details. My 11 years old twin boys did not want to leave. If I could give this house 20 stars I would.

Just book it!! This house is AMAZING. Our family of 6, ages 19 to 52, had an absolute blast. The house has a spectacular ocean view from the entire back of the house. Power went out on island, but we were not affected because of the thoughtful home design. We used the kayaks and paddle boards daily. The pool is refreshing and overlooks the ocean and the landscaping throughout the property, is breathtaking!! Communication with Monica, the host, was excellent (she even did grocery shopping for us before we arrived, which was throughly appreciated.) We felt welcomed and loved our stay.

Our 5th trip to Exuma at an Absolutely phenomenal property. We’ve stayed at properties twice this price and this was way better in so many ways. Perfect for people who want to enjoy the ocean but not be sandy all the time! Property is meticulously maintained, don’t miss the incredible garden around the property with different trees and vegetation labeled. One of the coolest features of the property. It really is the perfect place to stay in Exuma, centrally located convenient to everything. Comfortable furniture and beds. Ac worked great. All in all our perfect trip.

Paradise! We had 3 generations traveling with us ages 19-89. The house and the outdoor area were wonderful. There was space for everyone to spread out and a ton of activities to do together. We rotated floating off the dock to the pool every day. Nightly ring toss competitions at the dock while enjoying the beautiful surrounding. They have thought of every detail to make your stay enjoyable. Truly the outdoor area is your own resort you really don’t have to leave the house. We explored several beaches but were happy to come back to the house. We opted not doing one or two outings to stay and enjoy. Thank you for sharing your spectacular home with us. You have done an amazing job. Will recommend to anyone who wants to come to Exuma. We will be back!

Family Vacation @ Nautilus By The Sea

We had a great time at Nautilus By The Sea, beautiful view from the deck and dock. Family of 5 fit very comfortably. Concierge Monica put us in contact with private chefs and had two great dinners. The location is perfect and very central to grocery, liquor stores, boat rentals, beaches, etc.

Wonderful home

The Nautilus by the Sea was perfectly located on Hooper’s Bay. You can kayak, paddle board and snorkel right out the back door. The bay is unbelievably clear and we were able to see several species of fish right from the dock. The home is lovely with incredible views. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Perfect house!

This was a great house for our family of four. Perfect location. We loved the privacy and seclusion of the property. We also loved the calm water and easy access to the ocean from the dock and stairs. Very clean and well decorated with no clutter. You can't go wrong with this house. We can't wait to go back there next summer!

Beautiful Paradise!

Our home on Hoopers Bay was cool and comfortable with everything we could have needed! Being on the water with the ability to snorkel and turtle watch right off our own dock was amazing. Our just stocked our fridge and grocery stores were close by. We made most of our meals at home on the grill and enjoyed the family time.

Incredible experience

Everything about this place was amazing! Monica was simply amazing and stayed in contact with us throughout the trip and took minutes to respond to questions! She went above and beyond with airport transportation and grocery shopping before we got there. Everything was exactly as stated and we couldn’t have asked for a more beautiful place to stay! When we come back we will for sure be staying here again that’s how incredible the experience was.

Best Stay in Exuma

Nautilus by the Sea was the perfect property for our 8 day stay in Exuma. The pictures online are great and accurate. The home is very well kept and has all of the amenities of home. Monica is the best- very accomodating and responsive. The space is very clean, comfortable, convenient to everywhere. We will be back and I hope Nautilus by the Sea will be available!

Beautiful Property!

The home is so nice, and well appointed on the water, centrally located in Georgetown, near the meat market and easy to get around to most anywhere. The pics of the property don’t do it justice - it’s absolutely stunning. The kitchen has nice features, all new appliances, great cooking ware, and the bathrooms are all nice and new. I would definitely stay here again. Don’t have any reservations about staying, just book it. The property mgr Monica is an absolute delight and terrific communicator too. Loved our time here!

Absolutely wonderful

This was our fifth trip to the Exumas. Probably the best service we have ever had from a caretaker. Monica went above and beyond from the second we booked until we got checked in. The house is even better looking than the wonderful pictures. High quality construction and furnishings. The outdoor space has many facets and all very inviting. Highly recommended house.

Photos truly don’t do this place justice. The views of Hooper’s Bay are incredible, and there is just so much to do, it’s like having your own private resort! 6 of us stayed here over New Year’s week, including two boys 10 and 12. We were all kept busy — between the pool, dock, fishing, snorkeling, kayaking, SUPs and beautiful deck and “beach” to lounge on, you truly don’t have to leave to enjoy Exuma. But you’ll want to to take in everything the amazing island has to offer. We had two private chefs cook for us as well as a masseuse give us massages on the sandy beach, and the house was the perfect set up for both. We couldn’t have been more pleased! If you’re considering Nautilus by the Sea, book it now. You won’t regret it and will have Exuma “blues” the second you leave. We can’t wait to come back!

Ideal location

Nautilus by the Sea is a gem of a house. It is close to Georgetown and within walking distance of some shops yet is wonderfully private. The gardens surrounding the house are beautifully landscaped and the exterior provides plenty of space for a group of six adults to spread out. The interior is equally impressive. The bedrooms are large with comfortable beds. The great room comfortably accommodated our group and the kitchen provided everything you will need for your stay. The house manager Monica was immensely helpful both in the planning stages of our trip as well as upon arrival. A big thank you to the owners for sharing this wonderful house and to Monica for all your help.

Absolutely amazing

We just returned from an incredible stay at Nautilus by the Sea. The house was so clean and well stocked. It’s new with all the amenities. Everything you need is provided. Monica will take care of you. She had groceries and lunch waiting when we arrived which was very much appreciated! She gave is recommendations for restaurants and anything else we needed. She is very kind and gracious. The view is breathtaking. The grounds are beautiful and there are so many things you can do is paddleboard, snorkel, play corn hole, swim or just sit by the pool. You can even order ahead and have some Bahama Mama’s delivered! I can not say enough good things. Thank you for an awesome experience and a wonderful memory for our family Monica!
