Surf House: 4BR Beachfront w/pool

Great house! Can’t wait to return soon!

Thankfully our visit to Exuma was not about our accommodations or it would have been a disappointment. House was not clean upon arrival. There were dirty clothes still in our dresser and dirty ear plugs in the bed side table. We immediately cleaned the kitchen, baths, and floors ourselves. We could have contacted maintenance for issues every day we were there but decided to enjoy the island vs staying at house to let them in to fix things (a/c, ice maker, light bulbs, door handles, water spraying from bathroom faucet, etc.). The large main area was useless to us after sunset as the lighting was not working. The kitchen utensils and pans are in bad shape. There is a grill but no grilling tongs or utensils. There is not drinkable water at this house. However, they provide a 5 gallon water jug that you take somewhere to fill. The ice maker is for coolers only! Also, there are not as many kayaks and paddle boards as pictured and most are in sad condition with broken paddles. A large portion of the pool tiles have fallen off. Honestly, we felt the house was not as advertised.

A perfect house for groups. 10/10

All in all a very comfortable rental. Suited our needs. Property Manager quickly sorted few problems. Have extended our stay. That says it all.

We had a great time at the Surf House, a beautiful private location. The house is definitely not new but lovely and laid out well with two bedrooms at each end of the house and the kitchen and living area in the middle leading out to a very spacious deck and pool area with a gorgeous view of the ocean. As you walk down the sandy path to the ocean where kayak's & paddle boards await you will also find a hidden outdoor shower area for rinsing off after your dip in the ocean or pool. All the necessities were provided however, the kitchen could use some updating and a few more utensils and pans if you cook while on vacation which is a plus for enjoying sunsets and quiet times at the house.

We loved our two weeks at the Surf House. The house has a great setup for two families, which is what we had. The property is beautiful, well decorated, comfortable and convenient. The house is pretty well provisioned with kitchen supplies, beach/pool supplies, etc. The owners and property manager were super responsive and helpful when we had questions. Highly recommend renting a boat while in Exuma, there’s just so much to do and see by boat. It was super convenient being able to keep the boat at the property pier overnight so we were ready to go the next day. Overall great stay and highly recommend.

This was our second time in Exuma. First time renting a house. I think the rental house is the way to go but a few important things to know; Regular rolling blackouts (prob just during summer months) There did not seem to be a pattern or specific time of day. So be flexible and creative if you are in the middle of cooking, getting ready. Mosquitos are atrocious!! We gave up on enjoying the patio area and just ate inside. Even in the pool they will swarm your face/neck. That was a HUGE disappointment since a big part of why we picked this house was for the pool and patio area. I'm guessing that would not be an issue in Nov - Feb though. If we come back we would only come during those months just simply because of the mosquitos. If you rent a car beware the streets are heavy with potholes, very narrow and when it rains partially flood. It is like a game of Frogger trying to get around and not get hit by on coming traffic. All while trying to adjust to driving on the opposite lane. Having said that we would recommend renting a car a thousand percent. Suggestions for management; Update the guest binder; the wifi password is incorrect and Blu restaurant has moved from Stocking Island and is right up the road from The Surf House. It is one of the few nicer restaurants and I highly recommend it. The house needs a good cleaning. It was picked up and at first glance looked clean but you see could see grime and dirt all over the bathroom floors and kitchen. The kit counter was sticky and gross even after we cleaned it with hot soapy water. It really needs replaced with something low maintenance like Silestone. Some nights the bedroom A/Cs would shut off in the middle of the night. We could not figure out if they were on a timer or what. That got old. You would go to bed nice and cool and then wake up sweating. Maybe instructions in the book or laminated/taped in all the bedroom would be helpful. If they are on a timer, take them off a time. I will add tho every day/night they rooms did cool off nicely and pretty quickly too. Reasons why I would recommend this house and rent it again; Cooled easily, management was excellent in answering/resolving any questions or issues we had. We dealt with Carrie and she was always available or quickly got back to us. Great floor plan with ensuite bathrooms. Perfect for multiply families, couples or just a large family. Kayaks were surprisingly fun and relaxing - a must do!!

Was a wonderful location and the home was beautiful ! Would definitely book there again!

Great to have the paddle boards and kayaks to play witg!

We had an amazing time! Bahamas, the house, everything perfect!!! We will be back!
