We had a fantastic stay at Tanglewood House. The property was even more beautiful than the listing showed. Several rooms had new furniture. We loved the location with groceries, restaurants and a gorgeous beach nearby. Having access to the facilities at Silk Cotton Villas accross the street was a big plus, and my son used the gym there daily. We did have some issues with the home, but they were quickly resolved by the operations supervisor, Yulino. All staff that we interacted were very friendly and helpful. One thing to note was the hot tub was more like a warm tub. Our guess was the temperature was a max of 92 F instead of the usual 100 F. We were very happy with our experience and would highly recommend.

Our family rented Ole Ike Bay for a the week of Christmas and were blown away by the natural beauty that surrounds this house. Gorgeous views of “Exuma blue” water in every direction, a private beach and dock, pickleball, basketball, kayaks, corn hole, wave runners, and a top notch staff who shopped, cleaned and kept everything running smoothly during our stay. This house had everything we needed for a great week. You will not be disappointed if you choose Ole Ike Bay for your next stay in Exuma!

Amazing house! Super attentive host! We lost a tablet when checking out and they immediately sent cleaners looking the house for it, found it and offered to drive it to the airport to get it to me. Beautiful landscaping, luxurious salt water pool.

The home was beautiful, we spent our annual couple trip and the home provide everything we needed. If you want a peaceful and quiet atmosphere in the Bahamas, this is the place. Most importantly the house was close by everything including The Atlantis.

Ole Ike Bay is the place to stay! After being there in April with family, to come back this September was so much fun! I brought friends all with me, we enjoyed boat rides, jet skis and the kayaks on the property. Getting dressed up to go out for dinners too! Highly recommend staying here if you are visiting Exuma. The staff and hospitality here are always one step ahead and ready to help. Can’t wait to start planning my next return!

We booked Tanglewood for our party of 7 for a couple of nights before we returned home from our diving vacation. The house set up well for our group with 4 bedrooms (all ensuite) and multiple beds in 2 rooms. We spent the majority of our time by the pool area. The outside area is a great set up for relaxing or cooking out. The kitchen was well appointed. The house was within easy walking distance to several restaurants, grocery store, Starbucks and the marina. We were provided with easy directions for check in and check out. Would definitely stay there again when in the area.

The place is exactly as listed, I came here for my bachelorette and everyone was so responsive and helpful. There is a team of wonderful people running this airbnb and shantell helped us set up transport to and from the airport and other various excursions. All of the drivers were so friendly and were available at all times, it was all very safe. The beds were very comfortable, and any small issues we had, were resolved quickly. I definitely recommend staying here if you have a large group, it’s much more affordable than the resorts and more private. It was a very quiet and safe area, and with the drivers, it was very easy to access all parts of the island.

My husband and I stayed for our anniversary and it was amazing! The combination of Airbnb seclusion with the butler service had us feeling like royalty! I don't often do Airbnb on vacation because lets face it, who wants to worry about cleaning and losing a deposit on vaca?! The butler service eliminated that factor. Maureen was the kindest, sweetest person ever and helped us with anything we needed/asked. The house itself was GORGEOUS! It was so spacious and the outside wraparound balconies (yes plural) were everything at sunrise and in the evenings with the beach air blowing through like magic. Not one mosquito was present. The private beach and jet skis were the cherry on top! I cannot wait to go back. We stayed the second half of our stay at a popular resort and we missed ole ike bay tremendously. We will most definitely be back!! Oh and I forgot to mention the sandbars across from the house. They were magical!

We had a great stay overall at this lovely rental! The pool was a huge hit with the kids, and we appreciated the plenty of space to spread out. However, we did experience a couple of issues - there was an AC leak upstairs that was addressed on day of arrival, the water pressure was a bit low, which made showers less enjoyable, and the TV in the first-floor bedroom wasn't working however it was replaced by the next day. Despite these issues, the host was very responsive and handled them somewhat promptly and efficiently. A good stay for a large group. Would definitely recommend.
