The views from the porch were breathtaking. We had 4 adults and had plenty of room. The private beach was great and was able to float in the water. We used the kayaks to explore the sandbar. Getting to the house from Queens Hwy was a bit rough but I rented a jeep based on a prior review and had no issues. The house had everything we needed and truly enjoyed our stay.
Great communication, super friendly hosts!The view is amazing the islands are lovely to kayak to.It feels like a cozy home and not a sterile hotel.Loved our stay!
We had a wonderful time staying in the upstairs apartment during our trip to Exuma! The apartment is exactly as advertised and is beautiful inside and out. The view of the flats is amazing, and all of the amenities make it feel like home. Our hosts were so responsive, and although they weren't able to meet us in person, their caretaker was so helpful and always available. Jean Louis and Jackie, thank you so very much for sharing your Exuma home with us! We hope to be back to visit again soon!
House is adorable and located on a beautiful stretch of water. Best is balcony stretching entire back of house. Easy access to rest of island. Would definitely return.
We really enjoyed out stay on the property. It was close to everything, yet private enough to feel as if we had the whole island to ourselves. Monica was there to greet us and made our entire stay perfect. The house was amazing and had everthing we needed. We canât wait to stay again.
Jean-Louis and Jackie have a beautiful beach paradise waiting for you. If you are searching for the most beautiful sunrise and sunsets, you found them. Their attention to detail is amazing, property is immaculate and has all the amenities anyone could need. I will definitely return!!
This place is paradise! The home is immaculate and has everything you need. You have your own private beach and a balcony with breath taking views. We will definitely return! The owners are absolutely amazing! They are so helpful and sweet. Thank you so much for making our stay so enjoyable!
This is a beautiful property that is operated by lovely, gracious hosts. We greatly enjoyed our time in Exuma and much of that was thanks to the accommodations and the hospitality of Jean Louis and Jackie. They provided everything you might need to enjoy your time on the island (beach chairs, towels, etc.), as well as everything you might need to enjoy your time at the house. We enjoyed use of the kayaks and visiting the beautiful sand bar that is right out the back door. We would highly recommend this property to anyone looking to enjoy time on Exuma.
We have rented from Jean-Louis and Jackie numerous times now. Their property is in excellent shape and has every amenity you would need for a stay in Exuma. The air conditioning works great and the afternoon views from the porch are remarkable. There are multiple Jatakas available for use, along with beach chairs, an umbrella, etc. Jackie & Jean-Louis are incredibly gracious hosts and weâll be back soon.
Our little family of three could not have asked for a better place to stay during our recent trip to Exuma. Jean-Louis and Jackie were the perfect hosts, providing things we might need during our stay and information about the island. The house is well maintained and clean, and has beautiful views of the flats from the balcony. We enjoyed using the kayaks to explore the ocean outside, and were never disappointed by our hosts recommendations of places to see or eat. We are so grateful for all Jean-Louis and Jackie did to make sure we had a relaxing and restorative vacation.
Jean-louis thank you very much for opening your doors to a piece of your paradise. Our stay was great! House was clean and everything was organized. Great view from the upstairs apartment. You have a sandbar across that you can kayak to! Itâs a must! Thank you both again for welcoming my family to your home. Until next time! đ
Thank you Jacqueline and John-Louis for sharing your beautiful home (as well as beach chairs, umbrella, cooler, kayaks, etc)!! The location is perfectly central to all we wanted to do on the Island - Tropic of Cancer, Cocoplum Beach, Hoopers Bay, renting a boat in Georgetown. We spent a lot of time relaxing on the top deck - itâs unbelievably beautiful! It was great having the hosts next door as a resource and we didnât hear the guests downstairs at all. We look forward to coming back to this house and Exuma. Thanks again!
Jean-Louis and Jackie were great hosts and the property was fantastic! You are literally steps away from the ocean and there is a huge sandbar about 100 feet out.
They have chairs, an umbrella, life vests, kayaks, pool floats, snorkeling gear, coolers: everything you need for a day in the beach!
The little cove in front of the house was perfect for our 2 year old; not too choppy and just the right height at low tide.
We enjoyed having the hosts next door because it was our first time in the Bahamas. It was nice to say hello to them and get food recommendations.
My wife and I and our 9 year old stayed for a week, with my parents staying in the downstairs apartment. The vacation was perfect. Jean-Louis was away, but Jackie was the perfect hostess. We had everything we needed for a beach vacation, including beach chairs, coolers, etc. The house is very clean and modern. We particularly enjoyed hanging out on the balcony, eating dinner and watching spectacular sunsets. Rent a 4 wheel drive vehicle and maneuver the island roads slowly. We would definitely recommend this property.
We had an absolutely beautiful time! This little slice of heaven is just as described. Jacqueline and Jean Louis are excellent hosts and made our stay extra special. Excellent communication and tips to make our trip enjoyable including maximizing our time and helping us to secure an additional day of diving with Exuma Divers.
The views, amenities, kayaks and star gazing made it spectacular!
We comfortably fit in the 2 bedroom suite accommodation on the send floor, but would consider coming back with the rest of our kids and renting the adorable lower unit with private patio and screened porch and having the entire house.
Conveniently located mid island to accommodate activities up and down the island from the Pig swimming up north down to little Exuma south.
We canât wait to go back.
Jean-Louis and Jackie's property is gorgeous and is exactly as pictured in the photos. The view from the balcony is breathtaking.
Jean-Louis and Jackie went out of their way to make our stay as pleasant as possible. Checking in to see if we needed anything or to offer up suggestions for activities on the island.
They provide everything you could need. Snorkeling gear, beach towels, coolers, beach toys and chairs. It was all much appreciated.
Thanks again Jean-Louis and Jackie. We hope to return in the future!
This was our first trip to Exuma and we absolutely fell in love! The apartment was perfect for our family of three! Upon arrival, Jean and Claudia immediately made us feel welcome and at home! The apartment was very clean and smelled so nice! They even had fresh fruit and preserves waiting for us in the refrigerator! The apartment was well stocked with kitchen necessities, bathroom necessities and bug spray! They also had plenty of beach chairs, umbrellas, floats, etc for us to use! The beach in front of the apartment is beautiful and easy to access. They have kayaks that we enjoyed using to go out to the sandbar! The apartment has breathtaking views of the water! We loved being able to sit in our bed, drink coffee and see the gorgeous views! We really enjoyed our stay at this apartment and loved getting to meet Jean and Claudia! We highly recommend this beautiful place!
There are no words to describe this gorgeous home! The views are some of the most beautiful that weâve ever seen, and from every room. Jean Louis and Jackie are incredible hosts, and havenât missed a single detail in making this an absolutely unforgettable vacation. They have truly put their love and attention into it in every way. The home is clean, private and has everything you need. There are kayaks, snorkeling gear, etc. for the water. You can practically walk to a gorgeous sandbar, but the private beach is really all you need. It was so relaxing to hear the waves gently coming in, itâs just what we needed. We miss being there already! Thank you Jean Louis and Jackie for everything!
We were lucky enough to stay a week at Bonefish Bella Vista. The apartment is lovely and well stocked. We especially appreciated the garage downstairs with all of the goodies for a day at the beach. Chairs, umbrellas, coolers, floats, plenty of kayaks⊠anything you could need/want! Jean Louis and Jackie were perfect hosts. They were staying in the downstairs apartment and it was comforting to have them close by in case we needed anything.
The views from the house were beautiful, and I miss waking up to the gorgeous blue water right outside my patio door.
The road(s) to the house could be an adventure, just take it slow and youâll be okay. We had a Nissan Cube and managed just fine.
This was our third time to ExumaâŠand I canât wait to go back! Absolute paradise!
My family of 4 stayed here and had a wonderful time! Jacqueline and Jean-Louis are fantastic hosts - they make you feel like you are family staying at their home and they genuinely want you to have a good vacation. The pictures online honestly donât do it justice! The huge porch is the star of the show with the beautiful views of the sandbar right out front. My kids enjoyed spotting sea turtles every morning and getting to walk down to the beach and wade in the water. The house was perfect for us with plenty of space to spread out and they provide everything you could need including beach towels, chairs, umbrellas, coolers, laundry detergent, toilet paper, paper towels, soap, etc. You can tell how much pride and effort they put into maintaining their property and that they treat it as a home, rather than just a place they rent. We would be happy to rent from them again if we come back! Thank you, Jacqueline and Jean-Louis!
My family and I spent a week at the property. We arrived on Sunday after 6:00pm and Jean-Louie and Jacqueline were kind enough to reach out in advance to offer to get some food items so we could have something Monday morning before the stores opened. They were also great on Sunday night when we got ourselves turned around on the roads on the way to the apartment. The property itself was perfect for my family of four. The private beach was beautiful and we used it several times. My 11 yo loved snorkeling by the rocks 15 feet offshore where there were colorful fish living right there. We kayaked to the bonefish flats one evening, easy and fun for all four of us. The view is fantastic all day long. The hosts have a great set up for guests and were so informative and sweet. It really helped to have the packet of information about the island that they sent in advance of our stay. The location is really close to all the beaches we wanted to see and wonderful restaurants. It was really a vacation of a lifetime for us!
We spent our family Christmas and New Years at Bonefish Bella Vista and had a wonderful stay! The spot is away from the downtown of Georgetown but a quick 15 minute drive to find what you need. We arrived a little early so the house was still being cleaned and once we go inside it was lovely. The view is amazing - you can see both the sunrise and sunset over the flats and beautiful water! The deck was amazing to sip coffee and wine, depending on the time of day. All necessities and then some were available for our stay (extra kitchen supplies, kayaks, snorkels, floats, etc). We LOVED how the beachfront was super accessible and had the only 'cove' area protected by large rocks. This made for great and easy floating in the sunshine without any current or waves. The location is very quiet with very minimal motorized boats.
The island is quiet and not very touristy which is super appealing. It was tough coming in on a holiday but Jean Louis and Jackie were so helpful when we arrived - pointing out not only all the house had to offer but where to get supplies. They made a fantastic recommendation for fish in town and even helped get reservations for our New Years Eve! Great tips for places to explore and the island itself. They were there if we needed them but gave us space as well to enjoy our time. It was exactly what we needed for our vacation! Thank you Jean Louis and Jackie! We will be back!
We love waking sitting on the verandah at night watching the sunset over the Bonefish flats. The view from Bonefish La Vista is phenomenal and the turquois water can only be found in Exuma, Bahamas
