Oceanfront Exuma Retreat • 2BR/2.5BA • Secluded Beach • Deck • WiFi • AC!

'This ill Do' is a Bahamian built 2 bedroom 2 1/2 bath house with exposed beam ceiling and open floor plan. There are both front and rear wood decks. The front deck peers over three acres of tropical landscaping and the back deck offers breathtaking views of Exuma Sound. Both bedrooms allow access to the front and rear decks and have sliding glass doors that when opened allow the sound of the ocean and gentle breeze to fill the room.

'This ill Do' is located on the Eastern side of Great Exuma, on a two mile long sandy white beach with only a handful of homes scattered nearby. The house is three miles from the airport and five miles from George Town, where shopping and dining can be found.

This was our fourth stay here at This ‘Ill Do and we absolutely love the house and location. Private. Centrally located. No road noise. Arguably the most pristine portion of Tar Bay. Layout of house is great. New windows, new couch/chair set in living room. Outdoor shower. Harriet is wonderful and very responsive. We will be back!

What can I say, this place was AMAZING! The view is absolutely stunning and being literal steps away from your own private beach was the best!! The home itself was well equipped with everything you need plus more. I always appreciate all the extras like plenty of beach towels, beach chairs, coolers, extra blankets, bug spray, cooking basics like some seasonings, ketchup/mustard, etc. It was much appreciated especially since it’s Exuma and lugging all that stuff along would be a lot of extra work and expense. I had some questions before and while I was there and Harriet was extremely responsive, kind, and helpful. Beds were pretty comfortable too, which for me, can make or break a vacation. The location was ideal as well. Easy to find, close to the airport, and only like 10 minutes from Georgetown. I’d 100% recommend and book this place again!

We had a wonderful 10 days at “This’ll Do!” The house is centrally located on the island and was perfect for our family of 4. The views were gorgeous. The beach in the backyard was perfect for our daughters and a great way to wind down at the end of the day after exploring the island. The island experienced a power outage while we were there and the house was well equipped to handle it - there were candles & headlamps which came in handy as we were eating dinner. Do yourself a favor, book this property and enjoy all that Exuma has to offer!

Great Family Trip

Our family was 4 adults and 2 kids ages 6 and 3. We found the property to have everything we needed. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds comfortable! The bathrooms were also very spacious and clean with nice showers. We found the kitchen well equipped. Plenty of space in the great room with sliding glass windows overlooking the view of the ocean. The deck had comfortable lounge chairs and a table for outdoor dining. We especially enjoyed the paver stone patio near the beach to enjoy happy hour!! The beach was spectacular!!! You could walk for miles in either direction in the softest sand imaginable! The waves were great fun to play in with no rocks. It was a bit windy while we were there so we had no problem with bugs. Harriet was great to work with and answered all our questions and always replied in a timely manner. Overall we would recommend this place to anyone looking for a great relaxing vacation!!!

Beauty beyond words!

We had a wonderful family stay at this beautiful property. The home is spacious and gave all of us plenty of room to spread out and be comfortable. Very large deck for relaxing on the lounge chairs, beautiful beach, enjoyed the kayak and even saw a turtle! Conveniently located, only a few minutes from Georgetown. Would definitely return!

This house has it all

This house is located on beautiful Tar Bay, close to everything. A short 5-min drive from the airport and a 10-minute drive to downtown Georgetown. Well-appointed, spacious and comfortable, the house is located on beautiful turquoise Tar Bay. We walked along the beach each morning and enjoyed lounging on the back deck star-gazing at night. Groceries and boat rentals are close and in-town. Attentive hosts also provided everything we needed for a terrific week.

House name says it all!

We very much enjoyed our week long stay at This ‘ill Do. The house and view were even more beautiful than the pictures in the listing. There were plenty of beach towels, the kitchen had everything you need (although we never really cooked), the bedrooms and bathrooms were spacious and comfortable, having a washer and dryer was nice and allowed us to pack light, and that view! We spent a lot of time on the deck overlooking the beach and loved the sounds of the waves hitting the beach. We got in the water occasionally at the house, but since there aren’t any barrier islands the water was not the calmest. Our communication with Harriet was great. She responded quickly to messages and made sure we had everything we needed. We did enjoy a couple excursions. We did the full day tour with Exuma Water Sports and it was an amazing day. Our other tour was a hydro bike tour of Moriah Harbour with Hydrowater Sports. It was such a fun experience being elevated on the bike we saw lots of sealife. During our week we also visited the main beaches. My only items I mentioned to Harriet regarding the house, but in no way was a negative is possibly adding darker shades to bedroom in case you want to sleep in a little. There were a couple other small things, but Harriet responded promptly to address them and again, it did not take away from our stay at all. If you’re thinking about it, just book This ‘ill do! You won’t regret it. Thank you Harriet!

Always Perfect

The beach, the house, the people, the property owner…always perfect! We love those property and the owners could not be more accommodating. This year we took a couple of day trips to explore some of the others beaches, but did not find anything that matched the beach we had right out our own back door.

This'll Do is an understatement!

A beautiful two bedroom home with large open middle kitchen/living/dining area, perfect for two couples. The home is set back from the road, unlike others in the area, and only steps from one of the most beautiful beaches and swimming areas we've been to- and we've been to many! Powdery sand beach extends right into the water for a long way. Very private, only a few other friendly people strolling the beach. Minutes to grocery stores and George Town. This is what we wanted, and this sure did Do! Oh, and the owner is very accessible, and friendly as can be.
