About this property

Oceanfront Retreat • Remote Beach Steps Away • Ocean Views from Every Room

ThisillDo is a charming Bahamian-built oceanfront retreat featuring 2 bedrooms, 2½ baths, soaring exposed beam ceilings, and an open-concept floor plan designed to showcase the spectacular surroundings.
Relax on the front deck overlooking two acres of lush tropical landscaping, or unwind on the expansive rear deck with breathtaking panoramic views of the crystal-clear Exuma Sound. Both en-suite bedrooms open to the front and rear decks through sliding glass doors, inviting in the soothing sounds of the ocean and refreshing island breezes.

Nestled on the peaceful east coast of Great Exuma, ThisillDo is set back from the road, offering exceptional privacy and tranquility. The home is surrounded by lush tropical landscaping, with only a handful of neighboring homes in the area, creating a peaceful island setting. You’ll enjoy a beautiful two-mile stretch of powder-soft white sand beach while being just 3 miles from the airport and 5 miles from George Town, where you’ll find shopping, restaurants, and island excursions and all the beauty Exuma has to offer.

This was our fourth stay here at This ‘Ill Do and we absolutely love the house and location. Private. Centrally located. No road noise. Arguably the most pristine portion of Tar Bay. Layout of house is great. New windows, new couch/chair set in living room. Outdoor shower. Harriet is wonderful and very responsive. We will be back!

Property is in a great location. Very close to the airport and also close to get to grocery stores and towns. The house has a surprisingly large living room/kitchen/great room that the pictures do not do justice. We enjoyed our stay and loved Exuma.

Beauty beyond words!

We had a wonderful family stay at this beautiful property. The home is spacious and gave all of us plenty of room to spread out and be comfortable. Very large deck for relaxing on the lounge chairs, beautiful beach, enjoyed the kayak and even saw a turtle! Conveniently located, only a few minutes from Georgetown. Would definitely return!

Amazing private beach location!

We had a fabulous stay at This ‘ill do! The house is right on the beach and it’s truly spectacular. We were usually the only ones on the beach with just an occasional person walking by. The house is private and peaceful. We will definitely return.

We had a wonderful 10 days at “This’ll Do!” The house is centrally located on the island and was perfect for our family of 4. The views were gorgeous. The beach in the backyard was perfect for our daughters and a great way to wind down at the end of the day after exploring the island. The island experienced a power outage while we were there and the house was well equipped to handle it - there were candles & headlamps which came in handy as we were eating dinner. Do yourself a favor, book this property and enjoy all that Exuma has to offer!
