The house was clean and comfortable and had everything needed. The water jug was a much needed upgrade vs having to buy a bunch of bottles. Thank you. We did not use kayaks but did use beach chairs , which we all agreed need to be upgraded. The beds were very comfortable and it was nice to have all the outside furniture. The road to drive to the house off the main hwy is horrible …. We had a jeep so no problem, but a low car , not sure if could get by alright. Hopefully they put a better in soon

Tranquility is a real super location. Just a 2 minutes walk and you are at the wonderful and overwhelming Tropic of Cancer Beach. The house itself has everything you need (exept 1 or 2 sun umbrellas). The interior is so beautiful that we wanted to ask to buy some decoration pieces. The water dispenser was very helpful for the first days. We loved our stay a lot and would come back *****

Our family had an absolutely wonderful stay at Tranquility Cottage. This wasn’t our first visit to Tropic of Cancer Beach, and once again we were reminded why we keep coming back. From the moment we arrived, we felt welcomed, comfortable, and completely at home.The cottage was spotless, incredibly well maintained, and had plenty of room for our family of five. The beds were exceptionally comfortable, making it easy to relax after long days in the sun. One of our favorite parts of each day was the short, easy walk to beautiful Tropic of Cancer Beach—one of our favorite beaches anywhere. Having beach chairs and two kayaks available at the cottage was a fantastic bonus and made it even easier to enjoy everything the area has to offer.The owner and property manager were outstanding. Every question we had was answered immediately, and they were genuinely helpful throughout our stay. That level of responsiveness gave us complete peace of mind.We also loved spending time at Brea’s Delights, which has become one of our favorite beach bars. Between relaxing on the beach, kayaking, enjoying great food, and simply slowing down together as a family, this trip was exactly what we hoped it would be.If you’re looking for a clean, comfortable, well-equipped home in one of the most beautiful and peaceful places in Exuma, we highly recommend Tranquility Cottage. We left with wonderful memories and are already looking forward to returning.

One of the best values on Little Exuma at this price point. The pictures don’t do this rental justice. It is much larger than it looks and the decking goes all the way around. It was well stocked with towels/beach towels and chairs. It was too windy to use the kayaks but they looked in excellent shape. The location is only about 2 rows back from the main TOC entrance with the bar/snack bar. We had 2 small issues and they were very quick to respond. We will definitely stay again and recommend this to others.

Peaceful & Clean Home

We loved our stay at Tranquility Hut and absolutely fell in love with Tropic of Cancer Beach, it truly is the best beach in the area. The home was spotless and larger than we expected. Based on the description we had assumed the house would be a little closer to the beach, but it was still a very short walk. Overall a wonderful, restful stay and we would recommend it to anyone.

Nice home with most amenities

It’s close to the Tropic of Cancer Beach, but from what I can tell you have to drive aways to find snorkelling, if that’s of interest. There are two restaurants nearby. We tried Santanna’s and it was quite good. Very quiet!

Tranqulity is stunning, beautifully designed and decorated. The view from each side of the wrap around deck is unique and breathtaking. We felt cosy and safe but also immersed in nature. But please bring bug spray. Do your research on no-see-ums. Lovely 3 minute walk to the Tropic of Cancer Beach access.

Fantastic

We spent a week at the aptly named Tranquility beach house, and it was fantastic.Excellent access to a wonderful white sandy beach with turquoise water so pure and clear that you can't stay out of it!The beach house has everything you need. It's very clean and well stocked with kitchen necessities, which is important because this is not a Caribbean location that offers many restaurant options. There were kayaks and floaties which the kids enjoyed.It is an amazingly peaceful and relaxing place with a true Caribbean vibe.The host is a very good communicator and quite flexible. A very positive check-in & out experience and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this place.

Wonderful house off the beaten path

A lovely two minute walk from Tropic of Cancer beach, this house is perfect for anyone who wants a quieter vacation away from some of the more bustling parts of Great Exuma. While it's a bit far to get to some amenities (probably a 30 minute drive to get to some of the convenience stores/groceries), the trade off is that you get to walk to one of the best and quietest beaches on the island. Jacquie and Sandra were super communicative and helpful when we needed them as well. Would highly recommend!

Jacquie and Sandra Phillips enjoying a mango daquiri on the deck of Santana's. A five minute drive from their cottage tranquility. Jacquie and Sandra were both born in Jamaica and have enjoyed island living for decades. After moving away 20 years ago they wanted to connect back with their island roots. Tranquility offers a taste of an unspoiled lifestyle.

A direct flight from Atlanta and Toronto and a hop over from Florida makes Exuma easily accessible. The cottage is a two minute walk from the pristine Tropic of Cancer Beach. A slice of Heaven, here on earth.

What makes this property unique

The cottage offers a wrap around deck and nine sets of sliding glass doors which gives a panoramic view from every room.
