The house was perfect for 7 ppl and had plenty of room, super clean, had everything we needed and then some and a perfect view of the nearby ocean. The location was perfect!
We had a wonderful time and the house was perfect! It had plenty of space, private, and had everything we needed. The house was in a perfect location! Highly recommend!
Beautiful home with amazing views! The location was perfect with just a short walk to the beach. The house had everything we needed and was very clean. Thank you for the wonderful stay!
This was a great place to stay with friends. Beautiful views, very clean, manager was very helpful. Convenient location close to town. Only negative was that it is next to the power plant which runs 24/7 but with the A/C on you can't hear it.
We loved this property and will definitely rent again. It is in a great location. Willie was great at asking any of our questions and helping us with anything.
The home was much larger than the 4 of us needed, however we would certainly stay here again. Coast to coast views from the upper decks made for some wonderful photo memories. The pool was perfect for a relaxing swim after a long day exploring the island.
We came down to the island for 4 nights and FantaSea Villa was a great home base. Near to attractions and the airport and, to be honest, the home is almost a destination in itself! The views were incredible, the pool and accommodations were quite comfortable for our party of 6, and Cleo was very communicative and easy to work with. The only issue we had was... our stay wasn't long enough! We hope to be back soon!
Fanta Sea was a great property centrally located on the island and secluded from other rentals with an amazing view. Everything described in the listing is exactly how the house was. Cleo, the property manager greeted us at the door when we arrived and was available on What’s app with answers to any question throughout our stay. She was great! Beach towels were provided and nice. The bath towels were quality and very nice.
A car is a must to be able to enjoy all the island has to offer. All the public beaches are so quiet it’s almost like you have the beach to yourself. And each one is gorgeous. Plenty of restaurants close to the property too. We had a great time!

No hot water for 2 days poor response
We went 2.5 days with no hot water heater . Water heater went bad . When we called they were quick to send someone over but they couldn’t fix it and called coming else. The 2nd person figured out water heater was bad but was in no hurry to get one . I understand it takes time to get . But 2.5 days??? We said ok but we want a partial refund due to no hot water . At this time we were ghosted . Called , text and got no response . No refund . I would recommend this place at all . It’s also not Walking distance to beach . You have to drive a little distance then walk . It was very clean and a nice house . Had a great view and centrally located . Staffs non response made it not with it though . I would not recommend this place . I didn’t expect much if a refund but a day would have been nice. Instead we were treated poorly and ignored
The property has one of the nicest views on the entire island! The covered porch was perfect for enjoying coffee and at the end of the day. The house was very clean and the beds were very comfortable. You will need to get bottled water for drinking - they had some jugs in the fridge which was great! Cleo was wonderful to work with.
The pool is smaller than it looks in the pictures, but that was fine and we enjoyed it at the end of the day! You can walk to Jolly Hall beach, but you have to walk beside the Queens highway for a bit. We drove.You can park along the road for a lot of beaches.
You can walk to Splash restaurant - we enjoyed it. But a couple of days later it was closed (not sure if it reopened) We also ate at Shirleys, It was just ok. Restaurants seem to close on the weekends, and may randomly close. I highly recommend calling to be sure they're open! On weekends, get reservations or call ahead for pickup. It can take a long time to get food.
A lot of beaches were hard to find. There is very little signage. Research detailed directions ahead of time to save yourself time and frustration! It's worth the hunt though! Hint: look for "Beach Access" signs. A lot of the roads to beaches are in rough shape (some can wash out) We were VERY glad we rented a Jeep!
Recommend Smittys grocery store - it's much nicer than the Shop Rite. Note that groceries are expensive -about twice the price in the states
Overall a wonderful stay and I would rent the house again!
A great house in a great location! This was our first trip to The Bahamas and couldn't have enjoyed this property more! It's centrally located just outside of George Town and a short drive to nearby beaches, such as Jolly Hall and Hooper's Bay. Grocery stores were about 5 minutes in either direction via the Queen's Highway. We enjoyed a day trip into Little Exuma (Santanna's and Tropic of Cancer Beach) in addition to a half day boat tour through Exuma Water Sports. We spent our last day in a boat we rented from Minns Water Sports checking out Stocking Island and Elizabeth Harbor. Beautiful weather (upper 70s) on our trip between Christmas and New Year's. Cleo was very welcoming and did a wonderful job as our concierge to make our vacation truly special!
Could use some updates and a little maintenance but overall was a great space! Plenty of room for 3 couples. Great location to all we did. Great space at the table to play games, space for all to watch a movie.
We loved the location and the house. It was comfortable and had everything we needed. We did have an ant problem in the kitchen and master bedroom. Other than that it was great!
This is a great property. Location is great and views are awesome. Had an issue with hot water in the master suite and unfortunately while wasn't fixed I still loved the property and believe the management team was trying to get fixed. Other issues like the handle on the toilet braking was fixed very promptly.
Angie & Willy are the best !! The house had enough room for everyone and we had a great time. Highly recommend staying at this home - it was everything we needed to completely enjoy the family vacation.
Our time spent at Fanta Sea was fantastic! Beautiful view and perfect location in the middle of the island. There are several quite beaches very close, some even walking distance. The villa is located next to Splash bar and grill, and we definitely recommend. We would 100% stay again!
Nicely updated and great floor plan. Views are incredible (while sitting in the house looking through all the windows and doors or sitting on one of the rear porches. Less than five minute walk to great bar/restaurant and beach. Willy, the owner, seemed like an all around good guy and was very helpful with questions about the house or the island.
The host Willy was very helpful with any question we had. The house is just like the pictures. No surprises. Great view from the house and a easy drive or walk to jolly beach. We loved all the different beaches on the island.
Fantasea Villa was conveniently located from the airport, George Town, and all the beaches and attractions were easily accessible!! The weather was perfect every day of the week we stayed. Restaurants provided good food, good drinks, and most of all very friendly and nicest people to wait on us!!! The property manager Willie was always available to answer all the questions and requests we had. There are no words fit to describe the beauty of the ocean and the white sand beaches. The best vacation we had to date! We will certainly plan to go back!!! ❤️😎😍
We LOVE Exuma and the FantaSea offers a great central location and if you don't need to be on the ocean, the view is amazing. Willie is super responsive and helpful. The property is as advertised, you see what you get in the posting. It could use some TLC, deep cleaning. and functional and comfortable furniture (living room set is patio furniture - as pictured and beds are a little shaky). It is a very basic rental, but provides great space and function. Location is central to everything, but will still require a car. The only restaurant regularly open in walking distance is Splash at Hideaways (staff is not super friendly) and food isn't great. Frankie Bananas is no longer open and Latitudes may have been open 1 day while we were there for 11 and never experienced it. But, there is way too much more to experience on the island and Shirley's and other shacks are open down the road, grocery and liquor stores available nearby and just fun to explore unique and different places throughout this beautiful destination. We highly recommend: Hopper's Bay (turtles), Coco Plum, Jolly Hall (although we didn't get to experience on a calm day), Tropic of Cancer is overrated, but worth the drive to see it and other beaches on Little Exuma. Haulover Bay beach bar is a hidden gem and so special - if you go during low tide you can walk to Man O War island. Santana's is there too and don't miss Mom's Bakery (yum!) - make a day or two of Little Exuma and seeing the Salt Flats.. We rented a boat 2 days (Minns and Island Exclusive) and took a fantastic full day tour with Exuma Water Sports (if you are going to do ONE thing, do this - such unique things to see). When you see pictures of empty long beautiful beaches, they are accurate - you feel like you might have this island to yourself and it is truly a relaxing and tropical destination that we will be coming back to.

Clean, breezy and close to everything you need
We really enjoyed our stay. The breeze was wonderful on the hill and the view was spectacular!! The house was clean, spacious and attractive. The furniture was comfortable and the king size bed was so good that I slept like a baby every night. The pool was fun, and swimming at night was a real treat. The location is near the fish fry and three other restaurants, but our favorite was Splash. I really learned to appreciate a screened in restaurant like Splash, because it keeps the flying insects away. Splash also does carry out, so you can bring your burger, pizza or my favorite.... Cracked Conch, home to enjoy them. I only ended up cooking breakfasts and one lunch at the house, but the house was well stocked with anything you will need. There was a brand new grill that I wanted to use, but we ended up going out to dinner every night. This was my fourth trip to Exuma, and I don't know how I never made it to Jolly Hall Beach before now. This beach was clean, gentle waves with a nice soft sandy bottom and never had more than 5-6 people on it. Be sure to go to Jolly Hall Beach, you will absolutely love it. In the evenings we planned on watching movies on the TV, we had downloaded movies onto my brothers iPad, but it didn't work out. I am no tech genius, but my Brother is, and between the Regatta crowd overloading the internet, and the fact that the iPad wouldn't project to the TV ( because Apple is so fussy and proprietary), we were not able to use the TV to watch the movies. What we did was even better. We watched the movies on the iPad, on the deck, with the breeze keeping us cool. Wonderful!! I do recommend you bring DVD's to play on the DVD player, as your back up plan, but maybe your Netflix will work for you. I am very picky about where I stay, and I would absolutely rent this house again, and you can feel comfortable renting it too. Perfect location!!
