Your morning coffee overlooking St. Elizabeth Harbor as you listen to the gentle lapping of the water as the sun rises can be your daily routine! All you need to do is hit the "Book Now" button!

Bella Vista Breeze is the sister property to our original villa; Bella Vista which has only 5 star reviews- over 80 of them. You can expect to have full access to The Hideaways Resort amenities, amazing waterfront views, and all the conveniences of a home in paradise.

Bella Vista Breeze is perfect for a couple or family getaway with one Bedroom with a king-sized bed and a daybed with a trundle. An ensuite bathroom offers the comforts of home while the half bath allows you to clean up from a day on the beach with a dedicated side door! This small but ample space provides the absolute perfect foundation for any getaway to paradise. Bella Vista Breeze offers a fully stocked kitchen, snorkel gear, 2 smart TVs, board games, and laundry facilities; allowing you to pack light.

Although we are extremely proud of everything the inside has to offer guests, the outside is what you are coming to Exuma to enjoy!! With 2 exclusive patios to choose from, Bella Vista Breeze offers ample outdoor space for you to enjoy. Sit comfortably under a gentle fan overlooking the harbor from your private veranda or on the lounge chairs from your patio as you soak in the ever-changing colors of the harbor. Whether you are enjoying a cup of morning coffee, an afternoon drink, or a romantic after-dinner moment, the outdoor space is truly the star of the show!!

We welcome both short and long term rentals. For rentals over 2 weeks in length, we will hold a $500 security deposit that will be returned within one week of the end of your rental.

Bella Vista Breeze is thrilled to be part of the Guest Services Program at The Hideaways at Palm Bay Beach Club. Being a part of this program is what separates Bella Vista Breeze from some other properties. Our guests have complete access to the Pool, Fitness Center, all Watersports, Shuttle service into George Town, the brand new Hospitality Suite, and the concierge services of the front desk. Not all properties are the same, underpriced properties do not give you access to anything the resort has to offer. Be sure to ask all hosts in The Hideaways at the Palm Bay Beach Club if their guests have complete access to the amenities. If you are going to stay in a resort, you should enjoy the resort!

For those coming to Exuma for the first time, there is no better location than The Hideaways!! Centrally located on Great Exuma, Bella Vista Breeze offers instant access to everything the island has to offer. With a free shuttle into George Town every day, guests have the flexibility to not rent a car or rent for a portion of their trip. We can certainly help you decide what is best for your vacation.

From the moment you book with us, your vacation begins! We pride ourselves on preparing all of our guests with the information needed to plan your entire vacation before you even book your airfare!!

Come be a part of the Bella Vista Family!!! We are not happy until Exuma captures your soul. Enjoy Exuma where we say "You can actually dream with your eyes open!"

Paradise!

I couldn’t have asked for a better property or property owners and manager. I was messaged daily by them checking in to make sure we didn’t need anything. The kitchen was great and we loved having the grill outside. We sat and played cards at the dining room table while looking at the million dollar view from our window. The villa was literally right on the beach! Besides being beautiful, clean and right on the water it was the little things that I loved. The thoughtfulness of having extra sunscreen for us, a book all about things to do on the island with informative opinions/information, and all the beach toys/chairs ever needed. We felt right at home. We will definitely be back. Thank you for sharing your slice of heaven with us.

Perfection!

If you are looking for the perfect place to stay, look no further! Bella Vista Breeze is centrally located on the island allowing you to drive either direction easily. Michael and Roseann were the BEST hosts. The provided us with tons of information before we arrived and kept in contact with us the entire time. Michael and Roseann have thought of literally everything you need to make your stay feel like home. The icemaker was great to keep ice on hand and to use in the cooler provided. And the outside shower is EVERYTHING!! Take a shower outside!!

Perfect vacation location and stay

This was our first time to Great Exuma, Bahamas and our stay at Bella Vista Breeze was perfect for our family of four. The location is excellent and the view was amazing!

Anniversary Getaway

Absolutely amazing anniversary trip thanks to the wonderful hosts at Bella Vista Breeze! We used the information packet they sent us when we booked and their guest Facebook page to plan every day. I cannot tell you how helpful this was! When our flight was delayed for maintenance issues, they even gave us recommendations of places to eat while stuck at the airport. They were quick to respond with any questions we had during our stay. The villa and view were even more beautiful in person. We enjoyed drinks and dinner at Splash and loved walking over to Jolly Hall Beach where we saw several sea turtles! Exuma was absolutely amazing and everyone we met were so kind and helpful. We are looking forward to returning in the future and bringing our children to experience island life in Exuma!

Paradise in Exuma

This was our first time opting for a rental instead of a hotel during our family vacation, and it turned out to be the best decision we could have made. Bella Vista Breeze, hosted by Michael and Roseann, exceeded all our expectations. The villa is perfect and comfortable, providing everything we needed. The location is ideal, allowing us to easily drive to all our destinations. Being part of the Hideaways gave us peace of mind, especially with the on-site restaurant and friendly staff. Our stay was truly wonderful. The meticulous attention to detail by Michael and Roseann, and the overall experience. Our 4-year-old son is already counting down the days to his next birthday so we can return, and we feel the same way. I would rate this vacation and everything that made it special a perfect 10!

We loved our stay at Bella Vista Breeze. It was the perfect location with the best view. Michael & Roseann were very helpful making recommendations for us. They have everything you could possibly need to hit the beaches, beach chairs, floats, beach towels, cooler, umbrella, blue tooth speaker, waterproof phone case & even beach toys. We can’t wait to go back! Thank you Michael & Roseann for your hospitality.

Everything we needed!

We really enjoyed our stay at Bella Vista Breeze. There are so many things convenient about the property that make it great. Location wise it's on a great beachfront, is only a short to the fish fry, is literally right next door to the onsite restaurant Splash and is only a 5 min drive to Georgetown. It is also pretty centrally located on Great Exuma which makes going to either end of the island easy. Michael & Roseann were very responsive along the way and for my wife and I the unit was all we could ask for. We cooked meals in the kitchen, enjoyed the front porch just watching the ocean and took regular walks on the beach. We can't wait to return!

Best location on the Island

Bella Vista Breeze is everything the listing describes. This is our 2nd trip to Exuma and as they say “location, location, location”. This is a true oceanfront property just steps from the water. Bella Vista Breeze is conveniently located on the island. It is close to Georgetown and there are restaurants within walking distance. We rented a vehicle and it was awesome that we could travel north or south as opposed to being at either end of the island. The property is clean, the bed is comfortable and the hosts provided many extras. Bella Vista Breeze guests have access to all the Hideaways Resort amenities as well. It also has a great private outdoor shower with warm water. Michael and Roseann are excellent hosts and available to answer any questions. Their welcome package provided detailed information on the island including restaurants and excursions to name a few and was available as soon as we booked. It was a great planning tool. They have also put together a beautiful photo book with descriptions, so we ventured to places we probably wouldn’t have. Bella Vista Breeze would be our “go to” place.

Bella Vista Breeze is very clean, beautiful and fully equipped with everything we needed to ensure we had a wonderful vacation. The communication from both Michael and Roseann before and during our stay was exceptional. The very detailed information they provided before we arrived as well as the visitors guide when we arrived was extremely helpful and greatly appreciated. Our favorite spot was on the beach in front of Bella Vista Breeze (only a few steps from front door), which we enjoyed every day! This was our first trip to Exuma and we already can't wait to return to Bella Vista Breeze!

Perfect in every way!

Everything about Bella Vista Breeze is spot on! Communication with hosts, Michael and Roseann was a quick and thorough. Visitor guide is VERY helpful. King bed was very comfortable. Kitchen is fully stocked! Restaurant next door, Splash, was probably the best place we ate. They have anything and everything you could want on Exuma! Snorkle gear, beach chairs, umbrella, outdoor lantern, outdoor shower, etc. First visit to Exuma and we are hooked! Highly recommend staying @ Bella Vista Breeze!

Absolutely Perfect

This villa is exactly as described and in the perfect location. It has everything you made need for your stay. A few steps out of the door and you’re on the beach. Splash restaurant is on site and was convenient for us. Michael And Roseann were so helpful with planning, answering questions, and even allowed us to extend our stay due to delayed flights getting here. They have a detailed welcome guide with tips, directions, restaurant guides, etc. This was our first trip to Exuma, and we’re already looking to book again to bring our kids. 10/10 recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Michael & Roseann Castrillon

The Castrillon Family is dedicated to our guests' enjoyment from the day they decide to vacation in Exuma. We truly enjoy helping our guests plan their trip and can be as involved or uninvolved as you wish. We simply do not want our guests to head home feeling they have not seen it all!! We bought Bella Vista Breeze because we no longer wanted to disappoint our guests looking for vacancies at Bella Vista. For that reason, it was imperative that all of our guests had the same experience in all the Bella Vista Properties.

Why they chose this property

After spending 5 years providing memorable moments for hundreds of guests, The Hideaways is the only place we would consider for our Bella Vista offering. The Guest Service Plan provides our guests with unlimited access to all resort amenities with the cost included in their rental. A stay at Bella Vista Breeze is like staying in a resort with all the comforts of home.

What makes this property unique

As any Bella Vista Guest will tell you, the work we put in to preparing our guests for their vacation makes us different. Admittedly, there may be too much information, but we want our guests to be aware of everything the island has to offer. This way, as soon as you land in Exuma, you can begin enjoying rather than spending time planning your getaway.
