Perfect house for our family

The house was amazing and the view was better. Private beach and pool were perfect for our family. House was well equipped for cooking and beach activities. The WIFI was down during our stay that was an inconvenience. Highly recommend

Amazing Time

We stayed at this property for our wedding week in the Bahamas. This home is more beautiful than advertised. I would recommend this to anyone and everyone. The week was just perfect and you never need to leave the beach or house. Obviously the island is gorgeous and you should explore but you would have an amazing time not doing so as well. We hope to be back in the future and will absolutely consider staying here again.

Amazing Vacation!

My family of four had an amazing time at this luxurious, clean, and tranquil home over Christmas! Both Tina and Theo are absolutely amazing and made us feel so safe and comfortable the entire time. We took an excursion through Theo, and it was absolutely incredible! The beach access, pool, and ocean view from the living room made for an unforgettable experience! The Bahamian people are also are so kind and welcoming! As a family who travels a lot, this was by far our favorite spot! We WILL be back!

Fantastic Time At The Reef House

The Reef House was perfect we all had a fabulous time. The house looks exactly how it looks online if not even better. The views are amazing. We took advantage of pool, hot tub and of course the great beach. It was quite windy so we didn’t venture out on the kayaks but would love to have had the opportunity. Fantastic time! Thanks so much.

Absolute Perfection

We celebrated my 50th birthday at the Reef House and it was absolutely perfect. From Tina meeting us at the airport to her making our reservations and more, the property and service exceed all expectations. The house is absolutely beautiful and the beach is quiet and secluded. We have traveled to this island nearly 20 times and this was our best stay yet. I cannot wait to return!

Absolutely Stunning

The Reefhouse in Exuma was even prettier than the pictures, if that could be possible. We woke up every morning and could not even believe the views. We visited for Thanksgiving and had a couple of days of very windy, overcast weather and enjoyed just sitting in the living area looking at the exquisite view. The house accommodated our family of 8 very well. It was very well equipt with everything we needed and then some. Would highly recommend. Great for up to four couples or comfortably a family of 8.

10/10 - The reviews are all accurate

The house, the property managers, the views, it was all just as described or maybe even better. If we were to visit again, I'm not sure if there's another house on the island that I would pick to stay at over the Reef House. It has a great lay out inside, a really nice pool and hot tub, and easy access to an almost private beach. There were also plenty of beach toys including paddle boards, kayaks, floats, beach chairs and really everything you would need or want at the beach.

This house was perfect. It is just as pictured in the photos. The location is great, right on a beautiful beach with close access to other beaches. The property managers, Tina and Theo, were always very accessible and took care of all of our needs. I would highly recommend this house. We will definitely be returning there on our next visit.

Absolutely beautiful

The house was better than the pictures! Every room has an ocean view with its own bathroom. It has 2 master bedrooms with worked perfectly for our group. The beach access CANNOT be beat. You are literally steps to the most inviting ocean. Each room has its own air conditioning which was very much appreciated. The trio is basically the house and the view! It’s best to buy your own food, the food at the restaurants is expensive and not that good so buy your own food. They have everything you need to cook at home. The property is very well maintained. Totally worth it.

Perfect for a holiday getaway!

Everything checked out exactly as shown in the listing. Tina and Theo were outstanding both for the property orientation/care and the fishing excursion we arranged. They saw to minor maintenance issues (not a surprise for a property right on the ocean) promptly. For our family of 8, there could not have been a better experience!
