One Tar Bay was perfect for our group! The owners and property manager were all so wonderful to work with. We hope to be back to this magical home!
We loved our stay at this property with all the bedrooms & each having their own bathroom! The beach was very private & the most beautiful beach I have ever seen! The views were amazing from the deck. The owners were very responsive & nice. It was so helpful that Mary sent us so much info on the island before we ever arrived. We enjoyed our trip very much!
This is a great property located centrally on the island making all the amenities very close. The property itself is gorgeous with unbelievable views, great decks and lovely pool. The beach access is right there. The owners are very gracious and will do everything they can to improve and support your stay. We were there for 12 days and there wasn't a single day where we weren't doing something really fun. The house has lots of beach accessories so you don't need to bring any. Exuma is beautiful and this is a great place to experience it.
Kitchen is very well equipped with a good layout. Very easy access to the beach and the Infiniti saltwater pool was awesome. Easy access to everything. Cleo, the property manager was very accommodating. Very roomy and spacious for big parties. Great place to create beautiful memories.
Enjoyed the property
Our extended family of 9 had a wonderful time at One tar bay. The location and views are best. Plenty of room for everyone. The owners were such a big help with finding activities with last minute cancellations. The pool/beach/deck area was terrific especially for those who needed shade. Great vacation.
We had a wonderful time. The views are spectacular and having our own private beach was a highlight. The house was perfect for the nine of us. Overall, a perfect location if you want a relaxing vacation. We also enjoyed heading to Tim’s for lunch and also just hanging out at the pool with a “few” beverages!
Just got back from a week at One Tar Bay. Was there with 8 other adults. The place is amazing. Everything needed is there. There is a long stretch of beautiful beach where you can walk to Tim's on the water for drinks and food. If you're into exploring, it's also a great location to go to other beaches, which are all incredible, and a short ride to town, groceries and the airport. If you just want to relax you have the deck and pool right there along the ocean. The owners are very thoughtful and had the property manager greet us and make sure we had everything we needed. They provided a fantastic detailed guide of what to do, where to go, what to bring, etc. which was very helpful. Overall, an amazing place to stay and island to visit.
A great place to stay with entire family (age 10-82).
The house was perfect for our family. The downstairs apartment gave our twenty-somethings space to themselves and somewhere to stay up late without bothering the rest of us. Everyone having their own bathrooms was FANTASTIC! The views were beautiful and the pool and beach access made it the absolute perfect vacation home!
Beautiful house and pool on the best beach on the island. We all loved this house!
The views from the house are amazing. Owner was very attentive throughout the booking and during our stay (although we didn't need anything during our stay). House is perfect for families, beach access, pool, plenty of toys, games, equipment, etc. We loved it, traveled with party of 8 including 3 teens.
8 of us stayed here for a week in March to celebrate a 50th birthday. It was fantastic. We were grateful to have the pool because the ocean was very rough and hard to swim in. Mary was extremely responsive to our questions and requests and Cleo was very helpful. The house had everything we needed and was just as expected.

We had a wonderful week in this property, it was perfect for our two families. The kids enjoyed the pool and we walked the basically empty beach daily. Cleo was very helpful at check-in and responsive to any needs. The owners were even kind enough to give us duct tape when needed! The location is central to both sides of the island and we were able to explore it all. Perfect views and a beautiful home!
Our family and in-laws stayed here for a week in early January. The view is incredible and the property is exactly like the pictures show, but better. Traffic can be moving quick, so its easy to drive by it a couple times. From the house you can walk an easy path down to the beach, and because of the rocks on each side you'll always be the only ones on it. You can also easily walk to the restaurant Tim's on the beach. The house is only 5 minutes from the airport and it makes that part of travel so easy. The house is also right in the middle of the island, it made going to different beaches really easy. Our favorite beaches were Tropic of Cancer Beach, but be prepared for a bumpy ride, Cocoplum beach and the farthest north beach, I think its called Exuma Point, has a massive sandbar, massive. The home had everything we needed. Everything worked. If we had a question about anything, Mark or Mary or Cleo was responding back within minutes. They had many more amenities than the vrbo site lists, like things to snorkel with, toys for our boys, etc... Make sure you keep an eye on grocery store hours and days that restaurants are open. I would definitely consider booking here again if we return. We had a great time.
We had an incredible stay at this beautiful property. From our first contact at booking to our check-out, Mark, Mary and Cleo were wonderful. We can’t recommend this property highly enough. The location is perfect, the indoor and outdoor spaces great for a group, the kitchen well stocked and everything is clean, comfortable and welcoming. Mark and Mary are a great resource for things to do and see on the island. Thank you for a wonderful stay…our group of 10 will be back!
Excellent property Due to storms/flooding prior to arrival it damaged beach area in front of house/property. Overall great place to stay. Was a nice and relaxing vacation. On site property manager was very helpful in organizing activities. She also cooked a dinner which was fantastic. Would recommend staying here.
We couldn’t have asked for a better home for our first trip to Exuma! Everything listed is accurate. The home is clean, perfect location. That view! Doesn’t get better. Cleo is fantastic. Her cooking is delicious and she is very helpful giving you some tips on local restaurants and guides! Thank you Mary and Cleo for a wonderful trip!
Exuma is breathtaking, and we loved being able to call this space home for the week! Great location, amazing views, and all the amenities we needed. Owners were very responsive to questions leading up to the trip and even allowed us to change our rental dates when plans changed. Cleo, the property manager, was also great and so helpful with local recommendations during our trip. Great place to stay!!
