Great, excellent. The best in Exuma

Janet and Paul are very kind. They made their best to host us : great communication ! There is everything to cook. You have also all you 'eed to go to the beach. And it is very quiet. Excellent location to visit the north or the south of Exuma, close to the airport and close to George town

Loved our stay on beautiful Exuma!

We had a great stay. The property was well equipped and comfortable. The path to the beach was nicely landscaped and took approximately 3-4 minutes to get to the beach. Janet and Paul were very receptive and easy to get in touch with. Centrally located to reach both ends of the island easily by car.

Great!

Wonderful host and great property, has everything you need for a short term stay. The only (minor) caveat is the property can be tricky to find at night time if you arrive late in the afternoon/evening. Google Maps "This Fitz" would help you find it easier.

Love This Fitz!

We had an incredible stay, enjoyed everything about your place. We cooked most meals at home, you guys had everything we needed to cook and the grill out back was perfect for bbqing and heating up our pizza. Most evenings, we walked the path over to the beach. Was quiet and so beautiful. Thanks again for having us, having the water container was a great idea.

Wonderful!

We really enjoyed our stay and so happy we picked this rental! Janet and Paul are great hosts and so friendly. The studio was perfect size for us, very clean, and it’s in a great centralized location. The outdoor shower was great for washing off sand after returning from the beach. Tar Bay beach is just a short 3 minute walk along their path. We would definitely stay here again!

Great little get away

The place was great for a couple. Had everything we needed to be comfortable. The hosts Janet & Paul were fanastic and really easy to work with, i was able to get ahold of them when needed. The outdoor shower and private walkway to the beach were great. The photo of the beach is slightly misleading, as i thought the property was actually on the beach but is in fact a very short walk from the beach - no views of the beach from the home. Turned out to be a non issue as everything else was so wonderful and the short walk was actually rather nice. The location of the house is centrally located on the island which made traveking around easierOverall great place, great hosts, and if we were to visit exuma again we would certainly love to stay here again!Thank you!

Great Beach Vacation

Our stay at This Fitz was awesome. This unit was equipped with everything you needed for the week for the beach, for cooking and staying at the studio. The unit was a single level, with owners above the unit you stay in. There was a five gallon water dispenser for drinking water, ice cube trays for ice, cooler for cold drinks at the beach, chairs for the beach, etc. This unit was centrally located on the island with easy access to groceries, alcohol or whatever else your heart desires. The beach was never crowded and often we were the only people on the beach for it's two miles of length.The owners or hosts were super nice and took care of any needs, which we had few of. This unit was very reasonably priced for two or three people. I recommend taking skin so soft or deet bug spray for the beach or ouutside around duskunit for twfew of.miles.locatedcoolTheer

Amazing stay in paradise!

Amazing place with all you may need! We enjoy the kitchen area, bbq and beach chairs! For us, it was the perfect location! Near everything but far enough to be quiet and peaceful. We really enjoy the beach as we were alone on it all week! It s only 2-3 min walk so it is perfect. The hosts were quick to response to all the questions we had! Check in and check out was easy!

Great 7 day stay

This Fitz was just as described in the posting. The owners weren't there during our stay so didn't get to meet them but they were very timely for any questions or needs. This was our first time to Exuma and we felt like it was the perfect location to explore the entire island. Felt very private and secluded but directly off the main highway. Perfect for a couple traveling. The beach chairs were much appreciated. We walked the trail out to the beach a couple of times as well and it's maybe a 3 min walk. Would definitely stay here again!

Island of Discoveries

This location was great , close to Georgetown but far enough away from the hustle and bustle. Close to groceries and restaurants. The unit is well equipped, and the owners are very hospitable and helpful. Rent a vehicle so you can discover all the breathtaking waters of the different beaches. The beach chairs supplied were a great asset. Hopefully we will be back soon!

Great location to see the whole island.

“This Fitz” was perfect for my wife and I. We enjoyed our morning walks and 350 steps to the beach then miles of beach was great. The property is well kept with accurate pictures and description. The owners were so warm, inviting, and quick to respond to any questions and had great recommendations on food, boat rentals, and excursion companies. We recommend this property and hope to be back one day!

Our stay in the condo was great! It was very clean and well stocked with whatever you might need over the course if your stay. We had trouble getting a car to rent for the week and the host was able to help us secure one for our stay. She also was there no matter what questions we had. Exuma itself was different than we expected but the beaches were absolutely beautiful!

Lovely, private, quiet, well set up

This is a wonderful, relaxing place to stay in the Bahamas. It is not on the beach but has a 250 yard path that takes you through the trees, across the busy highway and down to a beautiful beach. The owners were very helpful and were responsive when we had problems finding the place. If we had had instructions to find the place when we arrived, we would have thought it almost perfect! Great value for the price!

AMAZING!!!

This property did not disappoint. Very clean studio. Lots of room. Owner left chairs, umbrella and beach toys. There is a 5 minute walk to the beach on a well marked trail. Only downside was a huge banana spider that decided to make its web across the trail. Yikes!! We just ducked under and kept going. There are also quite a few anoles that scurry around the yard and porch area. Delightful to watch. Definitely would rent again.

Just what we needed for a week on Great Exuma

My husband and I stayed here in March. This apartment is in a perfect location. It is centrally located, and Tar Bay beach is right across Queen's Highway (not really a "highway" :-). The property is tucked away so you don't see the road at all, and we only had to wait one time to cross the road on the beach path. We explored one end of the island (Exuma Point) to the other (Tropic of Cancer Beach on Little Exuma). Groceries and the Fish Fry are nearby. Janet and Paul are lovely hosts and we enjoyed happy hour with them! The kitchen and bath are updated and the apartment is large; it takes up the entire first floor. A perfect place for a getaway for two!

Perfect home steps away from the beach

This vacation home was perfect for us. Safe, quiet, cozy, and clean. It was well equipped with all of our needs. Just a short walk through the pathway to the beach. Just keep a lookout for spiderwebs, and you can easily avoid them. Tar bay was one of the most beautiful beaches on the island. You have much peace and quiet there, as well as privacy. We had a warm welcome and was easily accommodated for any of our needs. The location was right in the middle of everywhere we wanted to go. Be sure to rent a car so that you can see everything. We highly recommend this to everyone and hope to be back some day. Thank you Paul and Janet! It was a pleasure to meet you and maybe we will catch you back in nj. Well wishes from Lauren and Dinos!

Clean House with Central Location

The house itself was clean and private. They provided beach towels and beach chairs, which was nice. The owners helped us book a bonefish charter with Captain JJ which was well worth the money. The walk down to the beach was longer than anticipated. It took us about 4-5 minutes to walk to it. The wind was blowing 15-20 the whole time we were there and the waves crashed hard onto that beach, so we ended up driving to calmer beaches. Communication with the owners is probably my biggest complaint. For example, the listing mentions the use of laundry facilities, but we were not given the code to access it until we were going to bed the day before we left. Overall, it was a decent stay and the central location was nice. Definitely rent a car so you can tour the island.

Really a home away from home

This place was beautiful and relaxing to say the least. The hosts were very helpful, considering I asked them lots of questions, and they always had a kind response. When we stayed here, we didn’t have anyone else staying in the other units, so it was very private. We were even lucky enough to see a meteor shower. This place is close enough to the beach that you can hear the waves crashing, but not so close you have people walking nearby constantly. Crossing the road proved to be fairly easy most of the time so don’t fret about that if you’re considering this property. There’s a market nearby and a few restaurants, so no worries about finding something to do other than beach combing. Our favorite beach was Coco plum beach, although it also had the most people there so be warned of that. One thing no one ever talks about on your beach vacations, especially more remote beach vacations, is the sand fleas. I highly recommend packing bug spray and using it every single day you go to a more remote beach, such as tropic of cancer beach. Also, if you drink, I can’t recommend Exuma rum bags enough. They’re delicious and affordable, even more so than beer. Power did occasionally go out on us, but never longer than an hour or so. Thank you guys for hosting us, we had such a good time.

About the host

Hosted by Janet

We have been going to Exuma since the 1980’s. Our brother built the round house on TarBay and we loved going to visit him. He then sold that house and bought Seascape also on TarBay. As we were planning our retirement and having property on both sides of Queen’s Highway he sold us the property with a 10 foot right away to the beach which enabled us to build the deck and stairs to the beach. We built our retirement winter home and enjoy all the wonderful people we have met over the years.

Why they chose this property

The studio apartment, This Fitz has been renovated to accommodate 2 guests. It is located on Tar Bay in beautiful grounds. Just across the road is a private path that leads you straight on to the beach. It offers seclusion without being remote. A perfect combination.
Local amenities are a short drive away.

What makes this property unique

This Fitz is the ideal base to relax after a hard days sunbathing. Whether you want to cook up a meal at home and relax on the porch in the beautifully maintained gardens, or take a shower and head out to one of the many restaurants, this perfectly placed property will provide you with peace and tranquility.
