Great Location
The property is located right on the beach with a wonderful unobstructed view. The covered porch on three sides provides shade and multiple sitting areas with a nice cooling breeze. Three bedrooms each with its own bathroom and good A/C and ceiling fans. We would certainly rent here again on our next visit to George Town.

Quaint stay at Tar Bay
Tar Bay is absolutely beautiful. Home does not have all the bells and whistles of most, but the view and beach are more than enough. Wind on Tar Bay keeps bugs at bay. Best beach on Exuma by far.

The location was perfect. The house was infested with cockroaches, ants, and sandflies. We contacted owner and she directed us to some ant spray. It ruined our trip. The kitchen was so yucky we had to eat dinner out every night (we love to cook). Huge disappointment.

Misleading and not sanitary
I will start with saying the proximity to the ocean is great. But that’s about it to be honest. I would’ve spent my money elsewhere had I known the state of the home and the deceptive nature of the listing. Here is a list of all the things me and my family found wrong with the property: No kayaks as advertised. Mold on kitchen countertops, inside showers. Peeling/cracked ceiling above master bedroom head. Old brochures (5+years outdated on prices etc). Dust all over fans, dryer sheet in fan blade. No drying rack for clothing. Not enough toilet paper or paper towels for our stay-2 rolls/room. Blow up toys dilapidated. No screens on windows for kitchen. Table for outdoors does not seat 6 people as stated in listing. Pillows extremely flat and broken up in pieces inside the filling of the pillows. No instructions on how to get into the home or even the address until I asked the morning we landed here. Maybe she forgot she had guests coming? Window shades in bedrooms do not stay down and had to be taped by us in order to keep them down- previous duct tape was stuck on them also. Trash/beer bottles and cement block right next to porch on property that had been there a while. Chaise lounge pads are flat and the aderondak chairs broken and cracked- sliced my back and tore a hole in my brother’s shirt.House inside not swept, toothpaste smears on master bathroom counter, kitchen table had stains and stickiness- manager and owner made aware and did not seem to care and got defensive.

Amazing location
My husband and I decided to take our adult children to see why we keep coming back to the Exuma’s 😊. The house itself could definitely use some love and updating but the location is beyond perfect. We walked to the beach every morning and the evenings are just as beautiful.

You can't beat the location of this property! You walk out the back door to the most amazing and beautiful beach. We brought our family and had a wonderful time. You can sit on the back porch and see sting rays passing in the water. There is a coral reef nearby that we enjoyed on a daily basis. It was a dream trip for our kids. And Olena is an extremely responsive and caring host.

Breath Taking Views!
This was the 2nd house we have rented on Great Exuma. This house was great. A little older, but the view and location are unbeatable. Wonderful wrap around deck for everyone to spread out on. Beach chairs were great. Beds are very comfortable! Minimal supplies to do cooking at the house. This house is centrally located so you can easily get to both sides of the island. Very close to town and stores to get needed supplies. Would rent again.

You cannot beat the location of the house. The beach us perfection, the water gorgeous, and steps from the house. The bugs were terrible, which is a tradeoff for no wind and calmer seas. That has nothing to do with the house, just what we experienced.

Tar Yay!
Beautiful and convenient location, nice employees, concierge service was awesome. Owner responded quickly to our questions. There were no kayaks, but we enjoyed everything else the property offered. Amazing views! Our only concern was there appears to be a limit on water, which we weren’t aware of and would’ve planned accordingly. It dwindles at night and stopped on our last day, which didn’t allow us to flush toilets and finish cleaning. Other than that, wonderful stay in a paradise setting. Thank you!

Sea Garden
Sea Garden is a small, but quaint house located on Tar Bay. Tar bay is farther north and less protected than other areas south, so there is some surf and the water gets turned up and due to this, it is not as clear as places on Hoopers bay or Jolly Hall. The house has extremely comfortable beds. Everyone commented on it. The main living area has a small couch and two chairs so if you have a larger group here, seating can be limited. As someone who cooks a lot, the kitchen meets bare minimum standards. There was nothing in the kitchen except salt and pepper so everything from cooking oil etc will need to be purchased. The deck out back is serene and a great place to sit. The house has seen it wear and it not yellow anymore but that is expected on the shore where it gets battered by wind and sea.
