This was hands-down one of the best places we’ve ever stayed. From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The beachfront location is absolutely stunning, and having the water and snorkeling literally steps from the deck was unreal. We spent so much time just enjoying the outdoor space — the deck, the views, the peacefulness — it felt like our own private slice of paradise.The home itself was beautiful, spotless, and incredibly well-equipped. It truly had everything we needed and then some, making it so easy to relax and enjoy our time without worrying about a thing.The host was amazing — responsive, friendly, and so easy to work with. Every question we had was answered quickly, and you could tell they genuinely care about their guests’ experience.And the cherry on top? Seeing sea turtles right on the beach. Absolutely magical and something we’ll never forget.If you’re considering this property, don’t hesitate. It’s the perfect Exuma getaway, and we cannot wait to come back.
Laura's villa was one of the best VRBO properties we've ever stayed in. She has the place so well stocked! Communication with Laura was perfect. We have stayed at Hideaways before and the staff are so nice and welcoming. We will definitely return to Laura's villa. I pray sooner than later!
We had a wonderful stay at Ideal Quest. Location is perfect and Linda has thought of everything to make your stay as simple as possible. Exuma is a magical yet simple place so just sit back and enjoy the beauty the island has to offer. We will definitely be recommending this property to our friends and hope to return!
My wife & I along with another couple who are great old friends stayed here for 8 nights. The place was wonderful. With snorkels, chairs, beach towels and above all a screened porch provided we had everything we needed to have a perfect holiday in Exuma. We hope to come back
Great location and stay for a couple or small family
Cozy, clean and comfortable two-bedroom villa with a perfect location right on the water. The villa has the amenities of the small resort but is located right on the water and at the edge of the property, so still retains a lot of privacy. We loved sitting on the dock and enjoying a cocktail at the end of the day. The owners are very responsive and strive to make ensure renters have a great experience. Thanks for a great stay on a beautiful island!
Everything about this place is amazing! Not one negative, not one thing I wished for that wasn’t already there, simply amazing! Location, hosts, information, views, if I could give 10 stars I would!!! Absolutely going back!!! Thank you for having us and sharing your magical place!!!
Beautiful location with open water views, shared dock in front of unit, nice scree porch, unit stocked with beach towels and chairs. Nice pool at Hideaways and Splash restaurant had great food and drinks. Had an incident but owner was prompt in getting it rectified, great communication with owner and her representatives. Thanks for a great vacation.
House was very clean and was fully stocked with everything we could have needed during our stay. Breathtaking views with the best screened in front porch. One of the best houses we have stayed at thus far. Great customer service and was very accommodating! Would definitely go back!
This villa is the best! The bright blue water is right outside your door. The villa is exactly as it is described. Linda is amazing! Everything was so easy and all of her suggestions were so helpful and appreciated. We will definitely be back to Exuma and this villa! Thank you, Linda!!
This was a great villa in the Hideaways! Great location right on the water with it's own deck. Enjoyed the covered and enclosed patio due to all the bugs, but also to be able to sit outside and enjoy the rain still. The villa had extra sunscreen, bug spray, goggles, chairs, cooler bag, etc. and all kitchen needs for cooking. Having two bathrooms was really nice for our family! We would highly recommend Villa #19.
The Hideaways Exuma Quest, Villa Number 19, is right on the water and with a screened-in-porch that connects to a spacious deck overlooking the crystal clear waters of Exuma. Highlights included watching the ever changing sunrises, swimming with turtles at Hoopers Bay, counting the star fish, watching colorful fish, and swimming with the stingrays on Stocking Island. The Olympus Tough TG-6 waterproof camera was fun to use while snorkeling. We looking forward to a return visit to this paradise!
Linda and Dale’s oceanfront villa exceeded our expectations in every way imaginable! The location is right on the ocean, at the very end of The Hideaways property with your own peaceful, amazing beachfront, large deck and screened in porch area, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind. The villa was spotless and well cared for which made us feel immediately at home. Linda has thought of everything you could possibly need, both inside and outside of this well appointed rental and it was comfortable in every way. Everything about this rental is exactly as described and pictures do not do it justice. The ocean right out front is an aquatic paradise of sea life. We saw so many starfish and even a sea turtle while snorkeling. There is a paddle board and 2 person kayak for use too, not to mention the huge deck box full of floaties, snorkel gear, beach chairs, pool noodles and water games. Jolly Hall beach is just a short walk (along the beach) and is a must see! If you’re looking for a serene beachfront experience, look no further, it will fulfill your dreams! We were 4 adults in Ideal Quest, number 19 from 12-6 thru 12-12. Linda and Dale also have a 1 bedroom directly behind (it’s a duplex) if you’re traveling with a larger group. I just also want to add that for dining, the Hideaways restaurant and bar, Splash is nice and right on site. You also have Augusta Bay one property away and Shirley’s Fish Fry a short walk away. We can’t wait to return!!
We are Bahamas fanatics and have stayed all over. We take our little girl (now 5) everywhere we go. Linda felt like our personal assistant while here. Restaurant recommendations, beaches to visit, you name it.
For the price, the service, and the experience renting with Linda, you will not find anything better.
We are set to look at a property later today that would makes us neighbors. The location is no more than 20-25 minutes from any of the beaches, 2 minutes from George Town, and across the way is Stocking Island (famously known for Chat n Chill).
If you haven’t been to Exuma, the most important thing is access to beaches. Being on 1 is great, but if you aren’t bouncing around visiting them all, you are missing so many experiences.
In short, Eleuthera had always been our favorite island, Linda and this property changed that!
