Houseboats in Long Island

"One word: Perfection. OK, more words: Hosts were wonderful, villa was very clean and very well stocked, interior was beautiful, and the views were amazing! "

"Great resort. Staff was amazing. Lex, our ferryman was great. Stayed on Stocking island and loved every minute."

"Quaint property. Nice, clean villa. Dining options limited but they do provide free shuttle to town."

"100000000/10 stars. A true tropical paradise and we felt very taken of …. we did not want to leave. Will try to go back every year. Every picture is like a postcard but still doesn’t do the property justice. Lots of great new friends and adventures. "

"This place is an absolute hidden gem, truly one-of-a-kind and far beyond what we expected. I'm genuinely surprised it doesn’t have more reviews, because it deserves to be recognized for how exceptional it is. From the moment we arrived, we were completely captivated by the scenery—it’s like stepping into a postcard or a beautifully filmed nature documentary. The location is simply breathtaking, with crystal-clear waters that are hands down the most beautiful we’ve ever seen. We traveled with two toddlers, and the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome. They were kind, patient, and incredibly accommodating, which made our stay all the more enjoyable and relaxing. The warmth and hospitality we experienced here were second to none. Words truly fall short in capturing the peace and beauty of this place. It’s the kind of destination you want to keep to yourself, yet feel compelled to share because it’s just that special. We feel so fortunate to have discovered it. This is without a doubt one of the best-kept secrets we’ve ever come across."

"What an amazing stay and house! The home had everything we could have imagined and more. As my wife said "this house is the most stocked house we've stayed at." Great kitchen to cook in with a large variety of spices for cooking. This is oddly a huge thing for me as many rentals overlook this. The location is totally private and perfect with plenty to do right there. Off the beaten path but close enough to the markets for ease of food shopping. There is a great snorkeling spot (Blue Hole) just around the corner via kayak/SUP where we swam with sea turtles! They pop up every minute or so and are not hard to find. The low tide provides for opportunity to walk on a huge sand bar and see other marine species. The house has everything and then some and made our trip to Exuma so easy. The owner is extremely helpful from booking to checking out. We would 100% come back to this home for another stay in Exuma!"

"This villa felt so homely and had such a lovely soul, we have never felt so comfortable in a rented villa before. The kids loved playing in the calm waters around the villa and there is a really sweet little reef close by with quite a large array of small fish for the kids to snorkel around and look at. The beach is exposed at low tide and makes a lovely seating spot, as does the decking and pier! Sunrises are spectacular from here. The 2 rooms downstairs are on the outside of the property so more suited to older children but the area is very safe so we had no worries about our kids having their own “pad”. We took the free kayaks down to the nearby blue hole and saw sting rays, turtles and masses of fish - definitely worth while on a calm day. We cooked every night in the villa - it’s very well stocked with all the essentials and a few extras. 100% recommended "

"The property was well kept and in a good location. We enjoyed the pool and the beach area right out the back door. Definitely recommend this property."

"Valerie is absolutely the best host!!! What an amazing place to stay! My wife and I stayed at one of her cottages for a week and couldn't have been happier we picked this place. The location was perfect: half way between George Town for shopping/eating and the best remote beaches on Little Exuma, and easy kayak access to the Lazy River. The cottage itself was quaint and simple yet had everything we needed. The screened porch was our daily morning coffee spot with a peaceful million dollar view overlooking Moriah Harbor Cay National Park. One of the property highlights was the solar-heated in-ground pool. After a day of salty beaching, the pool was very refreshing. But the #1 most memorable thing about staying here was Valerie. We planned to arrive on a Sunday evening and Valerie let us know that the stores would be closed. She offered to pickup groceries for us ahead of time. We had fresh fruits, some breakfast items, wine, and beer waiting for us at the cottage upon our arrival. Throughout the week, Valerie periodically checked on us to see how we were doing and if we needed anything. She lent us a few sundry items, gave us great advice on places to visit (she's been a local since the 60's), and engaged in pleasant conversations. Sure you could pay more for a swankier vacation rental but you wouldn't get this level of charm and hospitality. My wife and I both felt like we were visiting our favorite aunt in paradise and can't wait to come back again!!"
