Awesome beach location!

Our stay at Minns Cottage was great! Loved the location close to town and across the street from the beach. The beach had the best snorkeling we could find! The unit had everything we needed including a washer and dryer! We will definitely stay here again!

Perfect location

Perfect location for our week getaway. Easy access to both the North and South ends of Exuma. Relaxing mornings on the screened in porch watching the beautiful blue waters constantly shifting colors.

Lovely view !

Wonderful stay. Thank you, Monica, for your help in getting us comfortable so we could enjoy our visit to Exuma. If you don’t have a car, Georgetown is just a mile down the road. The beach across the street was beautiful. The cabin we stayed in was comfortable and had everything we needed for the beach.

A Week in Paradise

Sweet cottage with beach access across the highway. Glad we rented a car as we explored the island with the beach chairs, umbrellas, towels and cooler all included with the rental. Owner was prompt to respond when there was a problem with the coffee maker.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Minns Cottages! The cottage was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a relaxing vacation. Located in a great area of Exuma, the cottage is perfectly situated for exploring the island. While the location is excellent, we would definitely recommend renting a car, as you’ll need one to fully experience all of the beautiful beaches, attractions, and hidden gems that make Exuma such a stunning island. Monica, the owner, was fantastic to work with- friendly, responsive, and genuinely committed to making sure our stay was perfect. Krissy, who met us at the cottage, was equally amazing. She welcomed us warmly, and made us feel right at home from the start. We highly recommend this property and loved the screened in porch. Thank you, Monica and Krissy, for your exceptional hospitality and for helping make our vacation so special! We loved it so much, while we there we rebooked for our families Christmas vacation in December.

Mini vacation

Lawn needed cutting and we were told maintenance guy was out of town. It took two days to finally get Wi-Fi password. Interior was as expected. Definitely recommend renting a car. Exumas was great! We will be back!

I will make sure that the password is in every single cottage from now. I had to come to South Africa for a family emergency but normally I am there all year around. Hope we will see you in Exuma again this time I will have kalik and conch salad on your arrival. All the best Monica Minns

Xtoria west

We enjoyed our stat at Xtoria West. The property was clean, stocked kitchen (spices and cookware...) plenty of towels. There are beach chairs and umbrellas. Washer dryer.View was incredible from the screen room. It even had TV. Food on the island wasnt to our liking but we brought frozen meat. Cant buy beef there, or deli meats. mostly chicken, food and drinks are expensive, pack accordingly. Roads are hard to drive on with all the potholes and on the left side, but we made due. Rent a boat at Minns boat rental. Such a beautiful island.

Perfect location in Exuma

Minn's Cottages were located very close to the airport and Georgetown. East commute to anything you want to do. The bay across the street is teaming with sea life and we snorkeled there daily. Extremely clean and everything you need is provided - beach towels, plenty of linens and stocked kitchen (just bring your own groceries). We grilled out the last night we were there! Loved it and will be back for sure!!

Minn’s Cottages

This was a great rental and we’d stay again. The location was perfect as it was close to the center of town. We were able to walk to restaurants, the ferry dock, etc. the house was as expected and provided everything we were looking for. The screened in front porch was great. It allowed us to enjoy the nights outside without getting bit by the bugs.

Great laid back cottage close to town, snorkeling and beach access

Esther and Nelly did a wonderful job before we arrived getting us booked and sending us materials on the area. The cottage was clean and everything was in working order! It's not fancy and pretentious... it's relaxing and comfy. The screened in porch was an awesome feature allowing us to enjoy the view without the big bites! The view just never gets old!! The water pressure in the shower isn't fabulous, but the water is hot! It's close enough to town to walk (although we started taking the walk along the rocks by the water because the shoulder is narrow in some spots) and we could also do the same thing in the other direction to fish fry! Stocking Island is a must see! The water taxi leaves from the government dock in town and drops at chat n chill. We would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful place to stay, as described, with helpful local property manager

This was my first VRBO rental and the host/manager was very accommodating of some confusion in the reservation, compounded by lack of cell service as I was approaching by boat. The cottage has plenty of room and looks right out on the harbor, and is in a quiet spot not far to walk from George Town.

Pleasant basic, fairly well maintained cottage with outstanding views of the water

We enjoyed our week at Minns. Godfrey was very pleasant and enjoyable to speak with. AC worked well. No car is technically needed but to get to all of the wonderful beaches one is a very good idea. Nice to have a laundry facility included. We would return again to enjoy this well valued accomodation.
