Our group’s second time staying at Rum Punch. Great house overall. Plenty of room and beds. Good location. Host and caretaker took care of us if needed. Would stay here again for sure.
Absolutely amazing place on Staniel! Was even decorated for the holidays! Very close to everything but also secluded with no neighbors. Perfect place! We will be back!!!
The property manager met us at the airport and helped us secure golf carts for transportation. The house was clean, open, and lovely. We had a great day thank you so much!
The house was very nice and spacious. The outdoor shower was fantastic. The only negative was the WiFi didn’t work for us.

Nina, thank you for your wonderful review. We are sorry that the internet did not work well for your during your stay. We have two interent service options at the home but given the disruptions that those providers have caused guests, since your stay we've also installed the global Starlink system. This is the direction most of Staniel Cay is going in order to ensure consistent internet availability. This service is now fully up and running. Thank you for staying with us and we hope to host you again in the future.
My family had a wonderful time. Rum Punch has 2 screened of porches to enjoy the sunrise and sunset. The kitchen has everything you would need for a big group, including an espresso machine! The closet full of beach supplies was incredibly convenient and useful. Everyone enjoyed their stay and slept well in comfortable beds. We will not hesitate to book again.
Rum Punch is a great house with wrap around porches and very close to the air strip. It’s a bit worn, but everything works and was clean. It looks like something is under construction in the back of the home but that didn’t degrade our experience. The kitchen is well equipped. I’d definitely ask to stay here again on our next trip to Staniel Cay.
Rum Punch has everything you need for a lovely stay on Staniel Cay. Complete with beach towels, mats and umbrellas, not to mention a fabulous espresso machine. Highly recommend enjoying one of the several porches at night and turning off the lights and looking at the stars. I have not seen stars like that for a while. Very clean and comfortable home in a wonderful location.
Tip for other travelers: Bring eye masks if you are sensitive to light.

Pleasant stay
Communication up to Check in was good and helpful. Unfortunately Check in there was no communication and we could not reach anyone during our stay. We had some issues with wifi and the oven, hopefully this gets resolved. Otherwise we had a great time. Home was clean and well stocked. Dont forget your Mosquito repellant and to book a golf cart in advance.
Rum Punch was as advertised . It’s not fancy, but has everything you need. The A/c in one bed room didn’t work, but was able to be cool enough if all the doors to the other rooms were left open. We particularly enjoyed a few mangoes from their tree. Water pressure in one bath was weak, and you can’t run the washing machine and do dishes/take showers- but allThings that can be worked around.
Rum Punch was perfect for us!! Plenty of room. Very private. Everything in the house was clean and functioning. We were greeted at the airport and brought to the house by the house manager Burkie. He help us get our golf cart rental and answered all or questions. The house isn’t on the water but with a golf cart you are 5 minutes from several beaches and stores. The kitchen is fully stock with cooking items. They also provided beach towels and beach umbrellas. All in all a very nice property. We will most likely be return clients.

We truly enjoyed our short trip to Staniel Cay, in large part to Nalini, Berkie and Vivian, who were so helpful and kind and truly went the extra mile for us. I can’t thank them enough. The house was spacious, clean and centrally located. Highly recommended!

Thank you, Liana. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay. From our team to yours, we hope to welcome you back one day.
Words cannot express how incredible Rum Punch was for our family of 6! This was a last minute booking due to unforeseen circumstances, and we couldn't have been happier. Our experience not only at Rum Punch and with the booking process, but with the staff they have to assist and their responsiveness to a minor, insignificant-to-our-stay request was nothing but sublime.
This was my wife & I's second visit to Staniel Cay and the Exumas (first aboard a charter in 2019) and our planned itinerary this trip was to rendezvous a yacht with family for a 64th birthday celebration. Unfortunately, the vessel had experienced events beyond their control which left them unable to make the reservation, but we continued to keep our flights and see what transpired.
Aware of the typical local availability of necessities, we booked Rum Punch for 5 nights on VRBO with our fingers crossed that we'd still have a vacation of a lifetime, and the villa played an integral part in the experience we had exploring all around Staniel Cay!
Berkie & Vivian Rolle are wonderful people that helped make sure we had what we needed upon arrival, and assisted with golf cart and boat rental during our stay. We had incredible dining experiences at SCYC and had a blast taking a 17' Whaler we rented from Isles General Store all the way from Great Guana Cay to Compass Cay... Iguanas, Thunderball Grotto, Swimming Pigs, Rachel's Bubble Bath all at our own pace and multiple times throughout the week! Something we'd NEVER experienced aboard a charter!
10/10 - WOULD STAY AGAIN!
