The Blue Marlin house was amazing! The pool and pool deck were where we spent all of our time. Sitting in that pool and watching the ocean has to be the best view in Exuma. The owner was very attentive and responsive to our every need. Since we had a 1 year old traveling with us they arranged to have a high chair and a pack n' play, which made the stay much easier for our family. The location of the house is near everything which was very convenient. I can't recommend this property enough. We are already talking about when we can go back and we will definitely stay at Blue Marlin.

This home was absolutely beautiful and exceeded our expectations. It was spotless, incredibly spacious, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The kitchen was fully equipped, making it easy to cook and enjoy meals at home.The location couldn’t have been better! Right on the beach with stunning views and centrally located on the island, making it easy to explore everything Exuma has to offer. The heated pool was such a treat, and the beds were incredibly comfortable, making it easy to relax after a full day.We truly loved our stay and would absolutely return. Highly recommend!

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS HOUSE!!!! We had an amazing week long stay at The Blue Marlin. The property is absolutely perfect and set up well for adults and kids. The property manager was very responsive about multiple questions we had. The property owner also checked in on us and was very helpful to allow us a late checkout. If you are searching for the perfect home in Exuma, look no further than The Blue Marlin!!!

Another great stay

This was our third stay at Blue Marlin and it was as expected...amazing. We keep coming back to this property because the house is great, the pool, the location right on the beach and easy access to the airport, Georgetown and all of the restaurants/bars. We had two families and it was great for adults as well as kids. We will certainly be coming back again in the next couple of years.

Exactly What We Wanted

We have been to Exuma multiple times.... this was by far the best pool we have had. The hot tub was amazing to warm up in on the "cooler" days (January). Only minutes from the airport and centrally located on the island. We would highly recommend this property.

This house was amazing!! View is beautiful! Close to the airport and restaurants. Georgetown is just a short drive away. Enough room for everyone to sit and eat together or hang out on the deck and enjoy the view. Lots of beach toys, floats and towels. Sand is just steps away. Would definitely stay here again!!

We shall return! Awesome!

The setting is AMAZING! Gorgeous beach and pool. The house was perfectly set up to accommodate 8-10 guests at a time. Jane and Nigel were excellent hosts and wanted to be sure that we had the best experience, and they succeeded! We rented for a month and were really able to get into the island life style. If we return to Exuma this would still be the perfect spot to spend time in again!

Stellar ocean view

Stunning ocean view & easy access onto beautiful beach. Water toys including kayaks & paddle boards. House with 3 bedrooms & private baths with a bonus pool suite fit our extended family of 7 perfectly. Ample kitchen space but would have benefitted by having a few staples like cooking oil. Minor maintenance issues (door handles, lock on pool house, hot tub water).

Blue Marlin Beach Oasis Treasure

First trip to Exuma and Jane and Nigel from Blue Marlin did not disappoint Jane and her family were very accommodating and quick to respond to all of our questions and made for a very stress free unforgettable stay in Exuma. Spectacular beach house with all the amenities to make for an incredibly fabulous vacation. Great location, beautiful white sandy beachfront, spectacular sunrises, lovely outdoor space with a warm welcoming interior finish with all the fixings. Beautiful pool, beach facing hot tub, toes in the sand and a drink in our hand was a fabulous way to spend the week ; life is good Definitely a redo for our group of travelling friends and family Jane & Nigel you have a amazing piece of paradise, thank you for sharing 🫶

Overall, this property was outstanding. We’ve stayed on Tar Bay multiple times in many different houses. This house stood out above the others because of the pool and hot tub option, which we used everyday. The beach is beautiful, the house was clean and had everything we needed. The pool house was perfect for the couple that wanted a little extra separation with a gorgeous beach view and ocean wave acoustics for sleeping/napping. Beds were extremely comfortable and A/C worked great! You have your own personal reef about 50 yards down the beach as an added bonus! Great for snorkeling out to see the colorful fish/sea turtles/barracuda. We would definitely stay here again. Exuma never disappoints!!! See you next year!!

Absolutely amazing

We’ve just come back from a trip of a lifetime. Blue Marlin was a fabulous home for our friends and family. You absolutely can not have a better location. The bluest water you’ll ever see! We loved having the pool for when the water was a bit rough, especially for the kids. All of the beds are comfortable. Ayana was wonderful and helped us whenever we needed it. And the owners were excellent at responding whenever we reached out. I hope to come back!

Christmas Family trip

5 stars!! The home was beautifully situated on turquoise water beach. The layout of home is perfect. Essentially you have 3 master bedrooms and a bunkhouse room with bathroom. Which allows everyone to have “their own space”. The rest of the home has a nice roomy open floor plan with view of the pool and ocean. The home was clean and well stocked. I would absolutely stay here again. The owners were so flexible with making changes for our sons schedules.
