Blue Hues! Secluded Exuma Beachfront + Private Pool / Whole-House Generator
Welcome to Blue Hues, a secluded beachfront retreat in beautiful Old Hooper's Bay, Great Exuma.
Set on more than an acre of lush tropical gardens and native stonework, Blue Hues combines the privacy of a peaceful island hideaway with a convenient central location. Step from your private pool and expansive outdoor living areas to a rarely occupied stretch of calm turquoise water—perfect for swimming, snorkeling and relaxing with family and friends.
THE MAIN HOUSE
The beautifully furnished main house features 3 bedrooms and 2½ bathrooms, comfortably accommodating 6 adults, with an additional queen cabinet bed suitable for 2 small children.
Large windows and outdoor living spaces showcase spectacular turquoise-water views, while the spacious pool deck and patio provide plenty of room for everyone to relax.
OPTIONAL PRIVATE GUEST HOUSE
Need additional space?
Our separate guest house offers:
• Queen bedroom • Full bathroom • Living room • Full kitchen • Accommodations for 2 adults
The guest house is available for $190 per night plus a $50 cleaning fee and must be requested before booking.
Most importantly: the guest house is NEVER rented separately to another group. Whether or not you add it to your reservation, you will never share the property with other renters.
BEACH, POOL & PRIVACY
Blue Hues is located within the secluded Old Hooper's Bay community, tucked away from the main road with no public road access to the beach.
Enjoy calm, protected water just steps from the house, a wonderful offshore reef for snorkeling, and more than 180 degrees of beautiful turquoise-water views.
Spend the morning on the beach, the afternoon beside your private pool, and the evening enjoying the island breeze from the patio.
COMFORT & CONNECTIVITY
Both the main house and guest house are equipped with automatic whole-house generators, providing added comfort and peace of mind during island power interruptions.
Our Wi-Fi network provides strong coverage throughout the property—including the beach—and Starlink connectivity makes streaming easy.
SECLUDED YET CONVENIENT
One of Blue Hues' greatest advantages is its location.
You'll enjoy exceptional privacy while remaining centrally located for Georgetown, restaurants, groceries, shopping and other island amenities. Exuma International Airport is also just a short drive away.
Blue Hues gives you the best of both worlds: the feeling of your own secluded piece of Exuma without being isolated from everything the island has to offer.

I wish there was a rating higher than 5 stars for Rick and Jodi’s place. Everything was perfect and Rick made everything as stress free as possible. He was very communicative before the trip which helped calm any nerves and had an answer to every question we asked.Also provided great recommendations of chefs, restaurants, activities and site seeing.Do not even question whether or not you should book this place, 10/10 worth every penny.
Beautiful Property. The beach front was definitely a staple. We had little ones so the pool was amazing as well. Host was the best to work with. He keeps the lines of communication open and even helped us with some details while we were visiting. We will be staying here again with hopefully more of our family to utilize the guest house!

This is our second time staying at Blu Hues for two weeks and it is paradise. The house is wonderful, the pool perfect and the "private beach" is the best. Rick is the perfect host who provides the best island information and communicates everything you need to travel to Exuma. We look forward to our next visit !

My husband rented this house for my 50th birthday and surprised me with a couple of our friends! I couldn’t have asked for a better place to celebrate this milestone. The house is immaculate. Decorated perfectly. Roomy and spacious. The views were beyond spectacular! The quick response and communication with the owners when needed was above and beyond. The location and setting offered everything we needed for the pool and the beach. And being located closely to grocery stores and restaurants/bars was an added bonus because anytime we needed something it was a quick 5 minute ride. Don’t think twice book this house if it’s available. You’ll have the vacation of your life! And book Gavin for a private chef dinner. It was perfection!

What a wonderful stay at Blue Hues! From initial booking to our last day this trip was a breeze thanks to Rick. Amazing host and an even more amazing home. Breathtaking views, exceptionally clean home and what feels like your own private oasis - our group of 6 ranged from 3-77 and a fantastic time was had by all.

This was our 3rd time to the island but first time staying at Blue Hues. Rick was nothing but accommodating and extremely communicative before, during and after our stay. The property is absolutely beautiful- I haven’t seen anything else like it in Great Exuma. The house was extremely clean and had everything we needed. The location was perfect and close to restaurants. The beach was beautiful! We will definitely be back to Blue Hues! Can’t recommend enough!

We had an incredible stay at Blue Hues in March 2026. The location, with its private beach and pool, meant that it was hard to even want to get out and explore the island. Rick, the host, is very communicative and helpful. We would definitely come back!

We just got back two days ago, and I can’t say enough about how amazing this place is. From beginning to end the house is beautiful the view and beach incredible . Communicating with owner from pre trip, during trip and any time we needed something he responded quickly. Our Family can’t wait to go back. Thank You 🙏
Exceptional property! Beautiful property and host was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. House was nicely stocked with all essentials and fun things such as kayaks, snorkels, rafts, pool toys and noodles, etc.

My goodness. I am writing this review with a broken shoulder and unable to type or use my dominate hand since I busted it 3 days after returning from our bucket list trip to paradise on earth but felt compelled to let anyone know who is considering this property to JUMP ON IT! The pictures do not do any justice simply because its impossible to capture its beauty and all it has to offer. We have stayed at so many properties at so many locations over 15 years of travel and this place, the hosts Rick and Jodi were beyond exemplary including their communication through the entire process, the cleanliness, private pool and the incredible beach steps from the house! we honestly felt like royalty. So thankful for a generator that automatically kicks on during power outages. So very few properties have this luxury on this incredible island. We are saving up for our next trip and will only stay here! Thank you both so very much!

About the host
Hosted by Rick and Jodi Hughes
We are a family of 5 and LOVE our piece of very private paradise and hope you will also.
Why they chose this property
Blue Hues offers one of the best locations on the island—centrally located and close to everything the island has to offer.
Tucked away in a very private, secluded community with no public access, the property is set off the main road, providing a peaceful escape from traffic and nearby neighbors. The home and guest cottage sit on a gently elevated hill, offering beautiful water views and refreshing ocean breezes.
This beachfront property is just steps from the beach, where the calm, shallow waters are ideal for families and children.
We’re conveniently located near Exuma Markets and Smitty’s Convenience Store, just a short drive from Georgetown, and approximately 15 minutes from the airport.
It’s the perfect combination of privacy, convenience, beautiful views, and easy access to the beach.
What makes this property unique
A true gem, Blue Hues sits on over an acre of beautifully landscaped native gardens and natural stonework, perched slightly above the beachfront to offer breathtaking views.
Our secluded beach, just steps from the pool, features calm, tranquil waters and is rarely occupied—giving you the feeling of having your own private slice of paradise.
The setting is exceptionally peaceful and private, with nothing but the soothing sounds of ocean waves, gentle island breezes, and the occasional visit from our resident peacocks. :)
A true island paradise!
