L’emplacement, la qualité de la chambre et des services offerts.
Personale fantastico e posizione invidiabile!! Da tornarci
Posizione strategica
Almeno una pulizia camera e cambio lenzuola ogni 3/4 giorni. Il bar ristorante, che non dipende dalla struttura, chiude la cucina alle 20.30 ed il personale è poco disponibile.
Son emplacement juste à côté de la plage de Joly Hall Les navettes gratuites pour Georges Town Le style local de l’hotel La disponibilité et la gentillesse du personnel
Une plaque de cuisson aurait été un vrai plus ainsi q’une fontaine à eau pour les clients de l’hôtel
Good location, nice beach at the hotel. Clean and nice room. Well mantained
I don’t know if the restaurant was part of the hotel but the service was not the best. Waiter looked overworked
This was our second time staying at the resort. As a domestic tourist, I'm proud to say the treatment we received there was consistent both trips. Very friendly, helpful staff and clean environment. The rooms were clean and neat, the enviroment surrounding our room, the entire property was so calming. We enjoyed a few afternoon meals at the onsite restaurant. We would of appreciate if the restaurant breakfast menu had native foods. But it gave us a chance to view more of the island. Cheaters for the win, best native breakfast menu and good prices. Every staff knows their job description and even willing to help out of that category to make a guest more comfortable. Sadly we have experienced being treated of less value than foreign guests on a few trips but never at Hideaways. We were greeted with a smile and served with pleaseure. The staff encouraged us to communicate our pleasure and dislikes to make our stay with them beautiful. Thank you staff of Hideaways especially Cindy,Rita and Bev. YESSSSS we will be back and we have recommended Hideaways.
Wonderful place to stay! The rooms are clean and very comfortable! We had a small living room, dining room, and kitchen, and it truly felt like home for a few days. I can't compliment the staff enough! From the front desk to the pool and kayaks attendants to the shuttle driver, everyone was kind, friendly, and professional. Lots of things to do around Exuma, and many places to eat, and the staff at Hideaways will help you find all of it! We will be back for sure...!
This place is the best. Loved the location, room, service and the people who worked there. (they are the sweetest) The whole resort is clean and beautiful and felt like we got to experience the Bahamian culture at its best. Jolly Hall Bay is the most beautiful beach. The 1 bedroom villa was beautiful, clean and spacious. We enjoyed the balcony patio to relax and soak in the views.
Lo mejor del alojamiento fue doña Rita , deverdad que señora más querida , amable y servicial, hablamos solo español y ella es cubana así que nos ayudado mucho , para escoger el mejor tour el día de la llegada , incluso nos ayudó a re programar un vuelo , ella deverdad es lo mejor del hospedaje . La cabañitas son limpias , agradables y tienes todo lo que necesitas
Exuma es muy solo , y todos los hospedajes tienen como un horario de atención , no es que esté alguien allí en la recepción constantemente . Es un lugar para ir a decansar y quedarse en el lugar que reserves y a los tour . Salír en la noche o encontrar variedad gastronómica es complicado . En cuanto al alojamiento nada que decir , cuenta con todo lo necesario para que tengas unas buenas vaciones .
The staff were incredibly friendly, especially Rita and Turtle.
Given all the rave reviews, I had high expectations, but we were sadly pretty disappointed. On our last 2 days (of 4), the pool was bright green and had to be closed down. The restaurant also sold us expired (by a few months!) and moldy yogurt on our first day. The next morning, we went to pour milk in our coffee, and noted it was expired by a few months as well. When we pointed it out to the server, she went in the back and brought milk back out in a silver non-descript container (meaning we couldn’t confirm what she did with the old milk). Needless to say, we did not eat at the restaurant again.
The property was right on the water which was beautiful. Has a restaurant right next door which was really handy after long days on our boat tours. The staff were super helpful.
For some reason the floor was constantly damp (probably humidity)?
Emplacement et vie imprenable !
Traverser la route…
This was the most incredible bungalow hotel, on an absolutely spectacular beach!! Spacious and clean, with all the amenities we could hope for! I especially have to shout out to Tevin, Tori, and Nae Nae!! Service was so friendly and considerate! There was truly something for everyone, from canoes to paddle boards and beach chairs. 10/10 would recommend!
How friendly and helpful the staff were.
nothing.
Beautiful property with extremely friendly and helpful staff! The location is beautiful, and 5 minute walk down the beach is Jolly Hall beach which is even more beautiful. The restaurant on site makes great drinks and decent food, although please be aware of island time. If you want a different experience, walk 3 mins down the road to Augusta Bay Restaurant. The property has a pool, ample beach and pool seating, and has kayaks and paddle boards that you can use. Another tip is to bring a good amount of cash as there is only 1 ATM in Georgetown and some restaurants, most taxis (including boat taxis) only take cash. Definitely take the shuttle into town and visit the shops and restaurants there. I also highly recommend you utilize the grocery delivery from Exuma Market as there is nowhere to get snacks on site. They will deliver to your room before you arrive. Lastly, wear 50 sunscreen, the sun in the Bahamas is strong!
mitten im nirgendwo, perfekt zum Entspannen. Menschenleere Strände
I loved the location, the views, proximity to the beach, the staff was so inviting.....especially Tevin!!!!
Everything, such a beautiful island
Service at the splash bar could be better
Great location, good value, and overall was what was expected.
Scratches resistant pan for cooking breakfast was really scuffed and scraped likely due to only providing a big metal spatula for previous guests. That coating is a health risk so would be nice to get rid of items after they’re past their useful life.
Great location. Bed was comfortable. Loved that they have a microwave and refrigerator and dishes in the room. Be sure to ask for a hair dryer if you want one. great beach nearby and restaurant food was very good
l'hôtel est plutôt bien placer même si sans voiture c'est compliqué de pouvoir se déplacer. La vue avec la piscine de l'hôtel et la plage juste a coté c'est super. Le personnel était vraiment super sympa. On a pu déposer nos valises et se changer à l'hôtel bien avant le check in.
On nous avez dit que la chambre été vue mer mais pas du tout. Les logements ne sont pas vraiment la ou y'a la piscine il faut marché pour arriver ou centre de l'hôtel. Ca reste raisonnable mais a faire attention lors de la réservation. Le restaurant de l'hôtel est vraiment pas ouf. On a attendu presque 1 heure pour avoir nos plat, pour ce qui est du petit déjeuner lorsqu'on voulait commander la dame nous a dit qui n'y avait plus certain ingrédients sachant qu'on est arriver à l'ouverture.
We stayed 4 nights at Hideaways in Exuma and absolutely loved it. We were in an ocean-side, garden cottage, which was more like a small house. It really became our home-away-from home. The cottages are arranged like a small village, with magical lighted pathways between them. Each has their own front porch, where many guests choose to hang out and chill, some even barbecuing! The cottage is full appointed, and has a coffee maker with coffee supplied. The on-site restaurant had tons of options and was absolutely hopping the first night we went--although it took an hour to get our food, it was tasty when we got it. We also went for breakfast the next morning and enjoyed it. Hideaways has it's own small, private beach, with various water activities like paddleboards and kayaks. We didn't partake although we did sit out on their lounge chairs. It's also a very short walk to the stunning Jolly Hall beach, which is where we went for our proper beach day. Hideaways is also a short walk to the Fish Fry, with a variety of restaurants, and neighbouring hotels with dining options as well. There is also a free shuttle into George Town, where we bought some groceries to have in our cottage. What makes Hideaways so special is the community vibe--it really feels like you are staying with family. The people are amazing and the fellow guests all have that relaxed "we have a secret" vibe. And the secret is how amazing Hideaways is.
O hotel conta com um bom restaurante, o que é muito útil em Exuma, pois não há muita disponibilidade de restaurantes. O quarto é espaçoso, confortável e possui uma cozinha completa. O hotel disponibiliza transfer gratuito para George Town.
O estacionamento fica no outro lado da rua, e era muito difícil conseguir vaga a noite. O ralo da banheira não escoava a água adequadamente. A limpeza do quarto demanda um aviso prévio de 1 dia para o staff.
The villa is perfectly situated right in front of the beach, offering breathtaking views that make your stay truly special. The property was very clean, well-maintained, and had everything we needed in the room for a comfortable stay. The staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming, always ready to help with anything. Overall, a wonderful place to relax and enjoy the surroundings — highly recommended!
Struttura e posizione
L’emplacement est parfait avec un accès direct sur la plage ce qui rend l’hôtel magnifiquement bien placé
Le seul point négatif que nous pourrions trouver à cet établissement est l’humidité dans le logement. En effet il est impossible de faire sécher ses affaires à l’intérieur. Les serviettes de bain restent donc toujours humides et sentent ensuite l’humidité. Avec le beau temps il est facile de faire sécher à l’extérieur mais malheureusement lors de notre séjour nous avons eu quelques jours de pluie ce qui rendait impossible le séchage
We stayed at Hideaways for spring break with two teens and mother in law. We loved the location of the resort, equidistant between the stunning beaches of Exuma Point and Tropic of Cancer, right next to Jolly Hall, and minutes to Georgetown and the water taxi. We had a two bedroom partial ocean view bungalow, which was large, updated, well appointed, and had a nice porch to enjoy coffee in the AM. Mother in law had a one bedroom ocean front (#14) on the other side of the pool, where I would love to stay next time if we come just as a couple. The beach itself is pretty, though the winds and rough seas when we were there washed up a huge amount of trash. So much plastic! The pool was small, but adequate and well maintained. As others have noted, the lobby is a bit dated, but we did not spend time there except for a game of ping pong here and there. The restaurant was nice to have on property, though service was on serious island time, and the food was good. We had a system where the adults would go and get a seat for breakfast, order for the kids, and then text them 45 minutes later when the food was set to arrive. They also liked playing pool when waiting for dinner. I saw other families bringing in cards and games to pass the time, everyone seemed to adapt to the universal island time. Of note at Hideaways is the warmth and helpfulness of the staff. We were greeted warmly by Tevin, who was helpful throughout our stay. The water in the showers was tepid at best, and he had the problem fixed in hours after I spoke to him. The shuttle to Georgetown is nice to have given limited parking in town, though I would strongly recommend renting a 4 wheel drive car to see all the amazing beaches on the island. If we come again, I would stay in one of the ocean front rooms, some of which belong to Hideaways and some are privately owned and rented.
We had a great time staying at the Hideaway. The room was lovely and so was the receptionist. She was very helpful with helping us organise transfers and shuttles and make the most out short time here before we had to leave the island. I called the number where I had spoke to who I think the name was Cindy, I had called to let them know we were running late for our shuttle to were she proceeded to laugh at me for asking to rebook/change the time to get back to the hotel and said to just get a taxi. I felt it was quite dismissive especially after the great level of service we had received prior to this. We are both 20 years old from the UK and have no idea how to get a contact a taxi as we were in the middle of no where. We have had to ask a local bar in hopes they would be able to help us . The part is we only went on this day out because we had booked/arranged a transfer. This then obviously took much longer and are now off track for getting to our flight. Honestly so so disappointed with how our trip ended and was so long and confused.
Loved our stay at this property. One of the stand out things about our stay was how friendly and helpful the staff were.

Property was clean and functional. Excellent and helpful staff, convenient location
Great location to get the lay of the land but there are many rental options
The staff at the resort were very accommodating and friendly. The resort is a bit long in the tooth. Meaning outdated and worn. The cottage was clean, but showed a lot of wear (rust on the fixtures and around the shower enclosure). The grounds were very well maintained and the beach and pool were quite nice. However, the onsite restaurant, while a cool atmosphere, suffered from indifferent and at times outright rude staff and seriously bad food. Bartender was wicked drunk. Fortunately, right next door there are a couple of good places to eat and drink. We also found some good food and friendly service in Georgetown and also further north. All in all, we enjoyed our stay and the price was a fair value. Just too bad the restaurant was so poorly managed. For that reason, we will not return to the Hideaways.
Exuma is absolutely BUT staying at Hideaways Resort at Palm Bay had some disappointments for us. We will never return. First, I will mention the positives. The water is stunning and the weather was perfect at 26C each of the 7 days that we were there. Hideaways is on the windward side of the island, so there was always a warm breeze that kept you cool. The water at the beach in front of the resort is very shallow and not good for swimming. Even when you walk way out in the water, most adults are only up to their thighs. The resort staff only groomed a small portion of beach directly across from the restaurant. High tide brought garbage onto the beach everyday that included a lot of plastic materials presumably from boaters. It was very unpleasant walking through this if you like to walk the beach length, as we do. If you walk beachfront about 10 minutes past Hideaways, you eventually arrive at Jolly Hall Beach which is heaven on earth. It is less windy, has powdery sand and is sparsely populated. The water is deep, and you can have a great ocean swim here. We visited this beach everyday. The pool at Hideaways is clean & warm but it’s very small . However, there was never any competition for loungers at the pool or on the beach. Our ‘hillside studio’ accommodation booked through Air Canada vacations was a big misrepresentation of the ad and pictures online. Our room was in a triplex, 300 meters off the main resort property. We had to cross the Queens Hwy, walk through the resort parking lot and walk up a hilly slope to get to our room. The road was full of potholes and the walking surface was uneven. It was poorly lit at night and created risk for falling. There was construction of more duplexes going on across the street from our place with a large gravel pit behind them. None of this detail was mentioned on the website or brought to our attention at the time of booking. We asked to change rooms and pay for an upgrade but the resort was fully booked. We later discovered that Hideaways only owns a few of the cottages you see online. The rest are privately owned, and many are for rent on AirBNB. So… if you want to stay at Hideaways, make sure you book an Oceanside cottage. Our room was remote from the resort and we had no room phone to communicate with registration. The front registration closes at 9:00. All lights are turned off and the door is locked. Daily housekeeping was part of our package, but when it was not performed, we were told you had to arrange for housekeeping with 24 hours notice. There is only one restaurant on the resort called Splash. The food is good and portions are generous. Dinner service was pleasant and timely but the breakfast service ( included with our package) was sad. On our first day, the restaurant was closed without prior notice to guests. We were told by the server, that they were performing a kitchen clean for an upcoming inspection. The breakfast servers were generally unfriendly and kitchen seemed slow to produce the meal. It was however, always hot and plentiful with lots of menu options. Fortunately, a few steps from Hideaways is Augusta Bay Resort. We ate dinner there a few nights and it was awesome. They have a lovely dining room with attentive servers and big picture windows facing the ocean. Try their grilled Grouper… yum! They also have a beach pier bar & grill called Frankie Bananas. We enjoyed a yummy burger & BBQ chicken there. In our opinion don’t waste your time or $ going to Shirley’s at the fish fry. It was expensive and not as good as locals claim it is. Also, be prepared for the high cost of food, both in restaurants and at the grocery store. Often, restaurants would run out of things on the menu as supplies don’t always arrive when expected. The front desk team and complimentary shuttle team are gracious, lovely and eager to please. Kudos to them! Fortunately, we met some other fun loving Canucks at Hideaways and we enjoyed some great adventures with them. Take the water taxi to Coconut Palm beach club on Stocking Island. It’s fun for all ages. We tried the stop at Chat & Chill too, but it was too chill for us. Be prepared … the Bahamas is expensive! We travel to a sunny location every winter and feel there is better value and enjoyment elsewhere.
The staff is very kind and helpful. The place itself and the location are amazing. We really enjoyed our time there, the location is perfect !
All was good !
Excellent! location, clean, room, beach, service, all right!
Professional and super-friendly staff. Great location with a small private beach, amenities, complimentary paddle boards, kayaks, and a swimming pool. Peaceful and well-maintained property with great cabanas. Beautiful Jolly Hall Beach is within walking distance. Recommended.

Great location! Very clean! ..and staff were very friendly and helpful!
NA
The rooms were really clean
Ran out of food / beer / water in the restaurant. Staff not very attentive and overall the place needs updating
Lo mejor sin duda fue conocer a Rita, una de las chicas de recepcion.Nos ayudó con consejos varios, resolvía las peticiones tipo conseguirnos secador, toallas, etc como si nos conociera de toda la vida. Valorable también el servicio gratiuto de bus para ir al centro.
Lovely spot! Nice Bungalow and very helpfull staff ecpecially Rita! She was the best so helpfull all the time in everything. Nice beach
If you are looking for a laid back island holiday than this is the place. The beaches were amazing and the people wonderful. Felt safe on the whole island! Staying at the Hideaways was perfect (we are done with large all inclusive resorts) and the Hideaways had an onsite restaurant/bar where the food and drinks were great. This has a beautiful beach area and a nice small pool. One of the nicest beaches on the island is Jolly Harbour and you can walk to it in less than 10 minutes along the beach from Hideaways. The resort is very laid back and a little rustic in a great way. (it is not a 5 star luxury resort but it is perfect as far as we are concerned) Staff was excellent - thanks to Reta, Cindy, Marvin and Patrick! - sorry of I forgot anyone. There are a couple of restaurants and fish fry in walking distance PLUS the resort offers a shuttle to Georgetown - so you can go to other shopping & restaurants if you wish. This is not an all inclusive so we picked up a few groceries and mix in town and our room had a fridge and kitchenette for snacks etc. We did go ATVing to see more of the island - great fun, took a water taxi to sip & chill and did a boat tour with Roberts where we swam into the grotto (from James Bond Thunderball), swam with sharks, pigs (not together!) and a number of other spots. We will return. Hideaways was a great resort and location and we would most likely choose to go back to the same place.
We enjoyed our stay at cottage number 47 for 7 days and an extra night ( due to a cancelled flight ) in cottage number 5. The accommodations are clean, updated , and decorated in a pleasant coastal style. Staff members are friendly, helpful, and polite.
Clean Environment Location is not far from the Airport AC was nice and cold Sleep Quality is Awesome No Loud Noise or Disturbances Great Resturant on Property Service was very Responsive
The service, the staff, the pool, the beach, the kayaks, the food.... everything was exceptional... the staff is so friendly and always greet you with a smile.. I loved the time I stayed there, thanks again to the wonderful staff.
Hideaways and the Exumas were 5 star all the way through! Marvin is one of a kind and made us feel so comfortable and at home for our stay here.. I had a minor air conditioning leak (out of anyones control) and they swapped all of my bedding/mattress that got wet in a blink of an eye… I have never experienced a better stay and more hospitable hosts/friends before.. Thank you Hideaways, Marvin, Meh, Arrentt and everyone else we were so damn lucky to meet!! 🩵 We will 100% be back and will stay at Hideaways.
Everything was wonderful for our trip. We had the best stay in Unit 28 right on the bay. The cottage was clean and comfy. Beautiful views of the bay and the sunrise and sunset believe it or not. The sunset reflects back onto the east and the views are just incredible all day. Ms Arnett was so helpful and felt like family. Marvin was so awesome. He helped us with all our questions and drove us through the offered shuttle. He is the best!!!!
Nice pigs 😘
It was a beautiful view and staff was very kind and helpful. But we had several cockoroaches. They did respray and said it was unusual but there were too many even coming out when we cooked breakfast. The villa 28 oceanfront was nicely decorated. But the bug situation is not good. They offered to more us back but no refund and we would pay more for no view.
HI MARVIN! We had such a wonderful time at Hideaways and will 1000% be back. Everyone was courteous, friendly, and fun! Having access to the Georgetown shuttle was extremely handy, and they even gave us a lift to the ATM one day. We enjoyed two meals at Splash and are looking forward to future Donkey Kong and swing bar-sitting. We greatly enjoyed the pool at the end of every day and enjoyed fantastic snorkeling right off of the beach at the hotel. Our favorite part of Hideaways was Marvin! He and his boss went as far as to set up an anniversary surprise for us to find after a day at the beach. Fantastic service, beach, food, cleanliness. No complaints at all, only rave reviews! - Savannah and Andrew
Cottage molto ampio, letti comodi, bella posizione, bella struttura
Il resort avrebbe grandi potenzialità, ma la gestione lascia a desiderare. La navetta per Georgetown parte solo 4 volte al giorno, l'ultima volta alle 5, e la sosta dura almeno 2 ore. Il paese è piccolissimo, in mezz'ora si fa il giro a piedi. Cosa fare nel resto del tempo? Come fare se si vuole passare la serata in paese? Il bar dovrebbe essere aperto almeno dalle 8 alle 24 e dovrebbe offrire prezzi contenuti per i clienti dell'hotel. C'era molto caldo e per 3 giorni la reception è stata sprovvista di acqua. Le informazioni fornite su Booking non sono aggiornate: ad esempio è falso che si possa pagare con bonifico e, pur avendo insistito per poter pagare anticipatamente, sono stati irremovibili, adducendo come motivazione di essere stati truffati da clienti Booking. Vorrei capire perchè addebitare la prima notte su carta di credito sia esente da truffa, mentre addebitare l'intero soggiorno possa portare a truffe...
My email stated I’d pay 81.00 upon arrival at the hotel but I had to pay 118.00 or couldn’t check in. Although it’s not a huge difference, I want my 37.00 refunded to me. The hotel was nice but very dated. The furniture needs serious updating, also, there were no clear channels on the television. All were very fuzzy.
Rita at front desk was the best
Hideaways is a quaint small resort in a great location. Everyone is so nice and helpful. the restaurant/bar onsite has the best pizza and is very convenient if you do not have a rental car. The shuttle runs to Georgetown 4x a day if you want to go into town for groceries, shopping, etc. I would definitely stay here again
The room was immaculate and very comfortable. Beautiful views and conveniently located nearby main sites and tourist hubs and eatery. The staff was very helpful and accommodating.
Crossing the street. A light or some type of caution system needs to be implemented.
What a wonderful place to hangout for 4 nights while my son recovered from a double ear infection before we could fly home. The mini villas were cool and comfortable. The pool and breach area are quaint and the water is exceptional. It was nice to have the restaurant Splash onsite but I could also make mini meals in our villa. The staff is helpful and friendly. This is on our list to return on another trip to Exuma.
Location . Cleanliness . Friendly And Helpful Staff .
TV Location In Room . Turning On Bathroom Light And Hearing The Exhaust Fan Noise . Light Should Be On One Switch And Fan Should Have Its Own Switch .
The villa was super comfortable and clean. I liked the access directly to the beach and how friendly the staff were.
Location meant that you had to get a taxi or drive most places
We had our own private cabin. Staff was very good. Shuttle service into town was great. Water taxi to beaches was so convenient.
Loved the area and living area was prefect for my family and I.
I stayed in one of the one bedroom cottages and it was so cute! Very clean and had a small fridge and microwave. The people were so friendly and helpful!! They gave me the office number to use through whatsapp in case I had any issues and responded immediately when I texted about a car rental. I would definitely stay here again if/when I go back to Exuma.
Our first trip to EXUMA and I am very glad we choose to stay here at Hideaways! I did A LOT of research on where to stay on the island and this by far was the best locations for our needs. I am glad I went the hotel route instead of a vacation rental. This place has everything you need! we stayed in the Oceanview 2bedrm/2bath it was brand new. All of the staff are there to help you in any way you ask them too. All other guests were kind, friendly and everyone has respect. I WOULD 100% stay here again and I would recommend for others to stay here as well.
My wife and I were really impressed with our ocean side stay. For Exuma, this is a great option to ensure a safe, fun stay in the Bahamas. Not a whole lot of food options in the area, however, the hotel provides you with kayas, paddleboards, a pool, and all sorts of other fun.
We loved that we had a restaurant on site. The pool and beach were nice. Good central location.
Very peaceful cozy place rooms were all very comfortable loved the place only thing I will add is vending machines cause everything closes early at exuma
Truly enjoyed my stay at hideaways in Exuma. The staff was wonderful and very helpful. There’s a shuttle from the hotel to sort of the busier part of the island most days. The rooms were clean and beds comfortable enough. Food was ok - but drinks were excellent. Will definitely be back!
Great location on the water and many amenities
Sporadic power outages (not hotel’s fault - it happens on the entire island)
Beautiful place
The property's beachfront location is excellent, and the units are spacious. Mine had a stunning water view. However, they don't make your room, unless you ask for it, and at the time I came back to the hotel was too late to ask for it. The outdoor area is pleasant but requires some maintenance. Parking is ample across the street. The front desk staff, particularly Rita, were very friendly. The on-site restaurant is a convenient amenity, although the service was slow and prices were steep. Despite some issues, I'd still consider returning to the hotel.
Location: Hideaways is in a great central location. It’s about 30-40 minutes from the northernmost Exuma Point and 30-40 minutes from Little Exuma making it a fantastic spot if you rent a car to explore the island. It’s also only about 5 minutes from Georgetown if you want to rent a boat at Minn’s or take a water taxi to Stocking Island. The beach at Hideaways is great for snorkeling as there is a small reef towards the little “island” off the beach that has smaller fish, sea slugs, starfish, conch, and turtles. It’s also a short walk to Jolly Hall beach which is a beautiful beach thought the snorkeling in the north side was t as good as others have noted (potentially due to some construction). Amenities: The gym is tiny and not super useful if you want to use it. It has a couple of cardio machines, a pull up bar, and dumbbells up to only 20 pounds. There is a nice small pool with towels provided for the beach. There is also an ok restaurant on site (Splash) that is honestly a bit hit or miss on food quality and availability. That will be saved for another review though. Staff: The staff were very friendly, addressing any concerns as quickly as they could. Room: The room itself is pretty nice. Note: We had a hillside villa so some of this review may not be applicable to the Oceanside units. But the room was large as spacious. Two bedrooms. Two bathrooms. Full kitchen except no dishwasher. Coffee maker. Patio. Silverware and bowls. Everything you would need. However, our unit had some challenges. Some lights didn’t work. Ceiling fan appeared to not be wired right (couldn’t have the fan running and the lights on at the same time). Locks were a bit janky and the door never completely shut. WiFi was spotty. But the worst was the water pressure. Absolutely terrible water pressure. Showers trickled water. Partially because the diverter spout leaked in both bathrooms but also just a very weak water pressure overall from all fixtures. They gave us big bottles of “toilet water” in case the low pressure impacted the toilets. I’m not sure if this is unique to a second floor unit on the hillside, but it really needs to be corrected.
Love this property we will be back
Absolutely lovely stay at the Hideaways, the staff were attentive and really genuinely lovely. The hillside studio was perfect and modern with a little balcony, table and chairs, it was a short stroll from the main hotel, pool and beach. The island, the hotel and area felt really safe. The shuttle into town was a great added bonus. We even saw turtles daily in front of the hotel !
Considering Exuma isn't a huge island, the overall condition and expectations were very good.
Only stayed one night but a great property!
Very nice staff. Had a great time.
Quaint property. Nice, clean villa. Dining options limited but they do provide free shuttle to town.
We stayed the first week of April and had great hot, sunny and windy weather! Anchored Dreams is located inside the Hideways Resort. The unit is set-up for a comfortable stay, many appliances for cooking, TVs, music and a nice deck to oversee the entire property. You might appreciate the cooking some meals, as there is not much variety on island. Sunrises are quiet and serene, the beach is walkable.There is also another small beach you can navigate to that is also beautiful. The staff is available for everything! Check-in was super easy and Marvin took us to our unit. Marvin is the shuttle driver, he and Teresa drive into Georgetown four times a day. This is a very convenient service for quick supplies, we used it almost daily! It is free, but of course, we tipped our friendly drivers :) We did rent a car one day and explored to the north end of the island - beautiful CoCo Plum beach and Exuma Pointe Beach resort & restaurant (a separate space). We also rented a boat and visited a few beach bars on Stocking Island. Another day we took a water taxi to Peace & Plenty - the fee included a day pass with beach chairs. They have a bar and restaurant as well. We ate at the local fish fry spots just down the road (walkable), Shirley's and the Krusty Krab. For a nicer dinner we took a taxi to Blu. This is a very small island and at times they run out of certain popular items, this probably depends on the demands the week before. We had a great time, it's certainly worth the visit!
Very comfortable stay. Marvin was super hospitable!
Very nice. Nothing fancy but very relaxing. The best calm beaches nearby. Not a traditional hotel with daily service, but anything needed..towels, soap, services, just need to ask. On a windy day, their beach was still calm. Splash restaurant has the best conch chowder...nice staff available to help at any time.. the only downside were the sand flies...must bring repellant everywhere.. overall..GREAT PLACE
We had the best time at The Hideaway’s. The hotel is perfectly located between town and the best beach on the island..Jolly Hall. The staff were all super friendly and accommodating. We stayed 10 days and went to the beach every day. It was pretty windy and even rained a few days while we were there, but it is still paradise. We rented a car on 2 separate days and even rented a boat to check out Stockton island. There is plenty to do or you can do nothing and relax. We had a great time and will definitely be back. A special thank you to Rita, Aneeta, “D”, Ithalia, Caden, and Big 12! They all went out of their way to make our stay memorable. Thank you Hideaways!!!!
Room was clean. Safe was broken. No drawers to put clothing, etc. Very bad sewer smell from the bathroom last two days of stay.
