Perfect getaway

Elysian cottage helped make our first trip to the Exumas truly magical. Richard's communication and help with renting a van made for a smooth week. The house is about 35 minutes from Georgetown but we ended up really loving being away from it all. The views are breathtaking from the house and we really enjoyed Tropic of Cancer beach just a few minutes away.

Peaceful and relaxing

Communication was great and the house was very clean. The house is very secluded. Make sure to pack bug spray.

This was a our second time coming to Exuma. The first time we stayed in the northern area and this time in the southern area. 4 adults and 4 teens. From day one Richard was very helpful once we booked the home. Getting back to all of our questions right away. As soon as we got through customs we got our car and found the property without any issue. Once we got to the property we were very happy that it was exactly as described. Very private and amazing views. The house was stocked with most of what we needed and anything else we were able to pick up at Exuma market. We took the 2 kayaks from the property and did some exploring in the area. Again very private and some super fun snorkeling just right off the property. We enjoyed the southern beaches in the area, Molly, Forbes, and Tropic of Cancer within 5 min. Also can checkout Santanas food and Moms bakery just down the road. We could have stayed another month once we got the lay of the land and into a routine. I would not hesitate to stay at the Elysian cottage again. Thank you!

Best Family Trip!

We LOVED our stay in Little Exuma and Elysian Cottage was truly a slice of paradise. It is beautifully secluded & peaceful with an amazing view! We all enjoyed the kayaks and exploring up and down the shore without ever running into anyone. Our 13 year old son enjoyed the freedom of grabbing his rod and heading down the shore to fish for hours. He caught needlefish, barracuda, mutton snapper, yellowtail snapper & triggerfish from the rocks to the northwest of the house. Our 15 year old daughter loved exploring the beach for shells & endless lounging on the deck. The cottage is comfortably furnished & had everything we needed for cooking in which is worth doing because the stars at night are incredible. We visited Tropic of Cancer beach several times & it is uncrowded and jaw dropping beautiful. The beach hut there served great burgers & drinks, runs on island time & may not always be open so call ahead or bring your own snacks. We rented a boat from Minn's for a couple of days for more fishing & going to Chat & Chill at Stocking Island for lunch & feeding the stingrays. We also took a 1/2 day tour with Captain Smiley to see the swimming pigs. The trip included feeding the rock iguanas, seeing the blowholes, snorkeling in a bluehole, a short hike with amazing views, and of course, swimming with the pigs. We thought it might be too touristy for us, but ended up loving the remote cays, the beautiful views & the unique animal experiences. We ate at Santanna's & Big D's & an unnamed hut at Fish Fry where we watched the fisherman/diver/chef clean & prepare the most delicious conch salad. We also enjoyed multiple loaves of banana bread from Mom's bakery. Our family had an amazing time! Thank you Richard for sharing your piece of paradise -- it was a wonderful adventure!

Why they chose this property

We came to Exuma 13 years ago and immediately fell in love with all it's charms, beauty and people. From that point on the plan started to take shape. Good things take time.
