WHO WE ARE AS HOSTS;

LOCATION;
Eden Hill is located on Great Exuma which is the largest and most developed of all the islands in the Exuma chain. We are just a 2 minute drive, from downtown George Town, the hub of the island. We are far enough away for peace and quiet, but close enough to be super convenient. In George Town you can find grocery stores, liquor stores, bars, restaurants, shopping, coffee shops, ice cream shops, conch stands, gas stations, banks, police, medical facilities, etc. There is a very popular island bar and restaurant called Legends Bar and Grill just a 3 minute walk from us which is very convenient. Another plus is February Point Resort which is right next to us. You can walk to their excellent restaurant and bar called the Rusty Anchor and can use the pool. Our house is on all paved roads which is a big deal in Exuma as many of the roads are just horrible pot hole filled dirt roads. The island is over 40 miles long so if you are not in a good location get ready for some long rough driving with $6 - $7 per gallon gas prices. Our central island location is perfect for exploring the island in either direction.
PROPERTY OVERVIEW;
Eden hill sits 35 feet above sea level on a hill overlooking Elizabeth Harbor. The views from our exterior decks are stunning with both sunsets / sunrises. The ocean changes color by the hour as the suns moves. The trade winds are consistent and also keep the bugs down. Our yard is large with lots of grassy areas for the kids to play, flowering shrubs, cactus, bromeliades, orchids and lots of huge palm trees. Humming birds frequent our property. There is a 60 year old stone wall at the front of the property. We are in a residential neighborhood called Flamingo Bay Estates with a mix of local Bahamians and foreigners. Mary who lives across the street is almost 100 years old and was a Bahamian diplomat in parliament and often will come say hello to our guests with some fresh fruit. Overall very safe and great people.
HOUSE OVERVIEW;
We bought Eden Hill in July 2020 and renovated the 50+ year old classic Bahamian home. It is fully air conditioned with high efficiency remote controlled mini splits in each room. It has 3 bedrooms and 2 fulls baths (one en-suite) along with a full kitchen and living room. There is both a covered screen porch and an open deck. The layout is very open and bright accompanied by a fun beachy décor. There are recessed lights throughout along with tongue and groove Bahamian style ceilings stained in pickled wash along with ocean blue and white walls and wood plank flooring. We added lots of sliding glass doors and windows to take in the breezes and allow for the tremendous water views. It is perfect for groups of couples or families. The Wi-Fi signal is excellent by island standards as we use "ALIV" which is the best option on the island. FUN FACT; The house was featured on the hit TV show from HGTV, called "Bahamas Life" a number of years ago.
MASTER BEDROOM AND EN-SUITE;
The master bedroom sleeps 2 people and has fantastic ocean views and a nice private en-suite master bath. It has a queen bed with 2 night stands and a sliding glass door providing ocean views while lying in bed and deck access directly from the MBR. There are also 2 custom 6 foot tall etched glass window panels which is a cool funky feature. There is a nautical ceiling fan and also a wooden high back chair for sitting as well. There is a large closet with shelving and hangers for storage space. Beautiful canvas artwork adorns the walls.
GUEST BEDROOM;
This guest bedroom has a queen bed and sleeps 2 people with the second guest bathroom right across the hall so it is almost an en-suite for those sleeping there. There is again nice artwork on the walls, a closet for storage and 3 large windows with garden views.
BUNK ROOM;
This guest bedroom sleeps 4 people and has 2 sets of sturdy island made bunk beds, meaning 4 twin mattresses. The bunks can hold adults or kids. There is a garden view window and a closet space for storage.
KITCHEN;
The kitchen and living room area is one large open concept great room for entertaining with the family and to enjoy the wonderful ocean views. The kitchen was totally redone with island made 100% wood cabinets, starfish cabinet knobs, new appliances, full size fridge, stove/oven combo and microwave, along with a tile back splash and bar style commercial grade lacquer wood counter tops. There is an "L" shaped island with 4 bar stools for dining along with 3 glass pendants lights and a ceiling fan. The kitchen is very well stocked for cooking and meal prep with all the gadgets. There is a USB outlet charging station in the kitchen. There is a washer dryer room next to the kitchen as you enter the house and that is free to use for all guests.
LIVING ROOM;
The living room has stunning ocean views along with very cool canvas wall art. The furniture is indoor/outdoor style with a full sized sofa and two large chairs along with a coffee table. There is a 42" flat screen smart TV with Roku and Netflix and a nice library of about 35 movies along with a DVD player. We have board games and playing cards. Just off the living room we have an over-sized deck outside overlooking the ocean with 6 island made Adirondack chairs, two chaise lounges and a small side table. It has cable railings for safety. Next to the deck there is a commercial grade park style charcoal grill with an ocean view as you BBQ!
SCREEN PORCH
A nice bonus feature is our covered screen porch for al-fresco dining just off the kitchen. Along the screen porch walls you will find a wooden counters and benches for additional seating for 5 people (see photos). Please note we do not having a dedicated dining room, so dining will be at the 4 bar stools in the kitchen and additional seating in the screen porch.
BEACHES NEAR US:
You can walk to 3 beaches from our rental; 1 right out front of our property to the left (see our listing photos and captions). There are 2 lovely beaches in February Point also. Our beach is a short walk just 1-2 minutes down the road from our property to the left. We list our property as beachfront because there are no other homes between us and the beach and you can see the beach from our deck, but note our beach is not part of property just so you are aware of that. We have photos showing our beach from the property and looking at our home from the beach to provide perspective and location.
ADVENTURE TOURS;
We use the best Adventure Tour Company on the island for the swimming pigs and sharks, sea turtles, sting rays, iguanas, Blue Grotto, snorkeling, etc. Our guests are given a special promo code so save $25 per person in your entire group when they stay with us. Please note you may choose any car or boat rental company or tour vendor for your needs, we just supply these resources as a courtesy to our guests. Please note we do not profit from referring guests to our vendors and we are not responsible nor involved in any way. You deal directly with them.
EXUMA IS NOT FOR EVERYONE;
If Miami Beach or Vegas is your thing Exuma is probably not for you. Exuma is a sleepy island with some flaws; Poor roads, poor infrastructure, power / water / internet outages, geckos and ghost ants sometimes in buildings. Every year we get a guest that complains about the island - it is a case of a guest going to the wrong destination. In Exuma people are genuine and kind. You will explore gorgeous empty beaches and dreamy islands and enjoy some of the best seafood you anywhere followed by a sensational sunset. Most guests love Exuma and we welcome you to stay with us.
