PARADISE/ MAY 2025 AVAIL/close beaches/town/ fishing/360 view, 84 5 star reviews

LOVELY AND REASONABLE...GET AWAY FROM IT ALL ! A very spacious house with 1800 square feet inside plus a large wrap around deck.Breathtaking views of the Atlantic and Caribbean ...Experience Great Exuma from the comfort and privacy of the Hummingbird House and enjoy stunning 360 degree views of the colorful waters of Elizabeth Harbor, Master Harbor, Crab Cay and the south side bone fish flats. We are located only two miles from Moriah Harbour National Sea Park. Soak up the sun and revel in the mild maritime climate of the cays while making this well appointed refuge your own, with space for parties of up to 6 guests. Lush tropical foliage surrounds this centrally located property that offers easy access to the bone fish flats by foot but there is no beach there per se ; take a 10 minute drive to Georgetown or to access 6 beaches. Or stay in and enjoy the unique open floor plan of the upper floor: a fully equipped kitchen, living room and dining room areas , and 2 covered, elevated decks connected by a walk around deck space. The upper floor also contains a single bedroom and half bath as well as a day bed in the living room that sleeps 1 guest. Downstairs you’ll find spacious king and queen bedrooms, each with en-suite bathroom, and the house laundry room. Wake up to the tranquil sounds of hummingbirds and bananaquits that frequent the tropical gardens surrounding the house.

The house is located 20 minutes or less( BY CAR )from the beautiful southern beaches, including Hooper's Bay, Jolly Hall, Stocking Island, Forbes Hill and the world famous Tropic of Cancer (voted among the top ten beaches of the world by “Island Living” magazine) and Pretty Molly Bay Beach. The bonefish flats, known for world-class fishing, are a ten minute walk away...wade into bonefish and do your own thing and the Moriah Harbour Cay National Park is minutes away by car. These waters are fabulous for kayaking, paddle boarding, snorkeling and other water sports. Please note we are off the beaten path and Exuma roads are not great. We use a small Honda but you may want to consider an SUV.

The private location of this house provides the perfect getaway for those seeking peace and tranquility despite being close to several restaurants and the amenities of the quaint town of George Town. Whether you enjoy relaxing, golfing, bird watching, beach combing, fishing, water sports or night life, the Hummingbird House is your home away from home for enjoying all the cays have to offer. As you can see from the reviews folks love our house and location. Please contact us if we can provide more information and ask about stays for longer than one month.

**We do have a well that is treated with chlorine but the quality of the water in the Exuma aquifer can vary with storms and run off so we do not drink the water. We suggest drinking only bottled water on the island . There is a 5 gallon water jug in the pantry if you would like to use . The water refill store, Naturally Fresh , is located about a mile north of the house before Cheaters Restaurant and it is $4 for 5 gallons which is a reasonable way to go.

We do offer a discount for stays 30 days or longer. Please ask for more information. GUESTS MUST BE 25 OLD UNLESS WITH PARENTS. We do not refund due to hurricanes but guests can use their credit for a future stay. We encourage travel insurance during the storm months.

Our house is very private. We use an enhanced cleaning and sanitizing protocol. We have excellent WIFI and food delivery can be arranged...sequester in paradise if you like.

We are required by law to include a 10 percent VAT tax to the Bahamas Gov which is included in your fees/payment.We can provide our TIN number .

Fantastic views!
The house and location were perfect for us. View from the deck was amazing - could see both sides of the island. And the humming birds were an added bonus. Our family would spend hours on the deck! House is adorable and near bonefish flats and Georgetown.Host was very easy to communicate with and very responsive. She provides a host of information to help with your stay on the island and use of the house.We would stay there again in a heartbeat, definitely a piece of paradise for us!

Friendly Exuma
The property is beautiful in every way. Margaret is extremely helpful. Views from balcony are fabulous. We stayed here for a month, so experienced almost everything Exuma had to offer, from the most bluest water you'll ever see, to the friendly island people. If your looking for a very, very nice place to stay, ( this is it ) !

Our own piece of paradise
From the moment we booked until we checked out Margaret was wonderful to work with and she quickly responded to any questions. Hummingbird house has incredible views and it off the beaten path. The location of the home in Great Exuma was great especially since our favorite beach is only 20 minutes away (Forbes Hill). We felt like we were in our own little world and heard nothing but nature. We were able to enjoy watching all of the birds and also stayed covered when the rain rolled in. The home was perfect for our family and the kitchen is well equipped. We also took advantage of the grill on numerous occasions which was great after a long day exploring. We made many memories on this trip. Thank you Margaret for sharing your home with us!

I can’t say enough great things about the place and the owners! Communication was wonderful and the view was great... for not being directly on the water, it may just be the best view on the island. I really can’t say enough about the kindness extended and will be forever grateful for such a lovely trip.

Clean, Inviting, and Accommodating Rental
My friends and I (group of 5) loved this house in Exuma. It was extremely cozy and quiet in the area at night. We spent most nights on the deck laughing and talking about how amazing our trip was. The owner is very responsive and helpful. The house was extremely clean, accommodating, and inviting. I definitely would recommend this house if you want a peaceful quiet place to relax after your long days exploring Exuma.

Ultimate Peace & Tranquility with views to match !
Absolutely perfect for us ! We loved it ! We spend our days out on a rented boat or exploring the island & coming back to Hummingbird House felt like coming “home” ! It was immaculate, A/C worked great, the kitchen was fully equipped & much appreciated as we cook a lot & on the few rainy days we were happy to relax on the veranda with a great breeze & just stare at the view. Watching the sand bar appear & disappear with the tide was great & at night the stars are amazing ! We WILL be back !
