About this property

Exuma Family Vacation Home - ocean views, spacious, comfortable, and convenient.

Flip Flops on the Hilltop is a vacation rental property designed for families and/or groups of up to 10 total guests. A large 2-story home with 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, spacious kitchen, family room, sitting area, bar & gaming table, and a laundry room. There is a welcoming front porch, screened-in balcony (overlooking Palm Bay and Elizabeth Harbor), and a sundeck with lounge chairs.

Plenty of space with decor designed for all the comforts of home. The extra large chef-inspired kitchen is loaded with everything you need to cook and enjoy meals. The home can accommodate up to 10 guests; the primary bedroom is on the second floor with a king-sized bed and ensuite bathroom. There are three bedrooms on the first floor; two with queen-sized beds and another with custom-made dual bunkbeds with XL-twin mattresses. The family room has a large sectional couch and Smart TV for those relaxing evenings watching your favorite streaming shows.

Flip Flops on the Hilltop is located just 1.5 miles from Georgetown and is only a 12-14 minute drive from the Exuma airport (GGT). Our home is also part of the Hideaways Beach Club on Palm Bay. The amenities at Hideaways are included for our guests to enjoy; this includes a pool, club room, workout room, and water toys (kayaks and paddle boards). Splash Restaurant is also on site and serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner most of the year.

We also provide our guests with ice chests (one large and 2 small), beach towels, beach chairs, and a wagon. The walk down to Hideaways and the beach is only 2-3 minutes; Palm Bay Beach is often shallow and calm with great snorkeling along the rock formations. Palm Bay Beach is also a short 5-6 minute walk along the beach to Jolly Hall Beach (one of our favorites).

For the kids, we offer plenty of board games, gaming table, Foosball table, Jenga, Cornhole boards, and a Connect 4 game. We also have Starlink WiFi service for those mobile device connections.

For your comfort, each bedroom has its own AC unit which is remote controlled. The ideal temperature settings are around 72-73 degrees. Its okay to lower to 70 degrees at night in each bedroom; but please turn off when leaving the house for the day. Each floor also has large AC units which should remain on at 73-74 degrees during the day (please turn off at night). When departing for home, please leave these larger units on but set the temperature to 76 degrees and all bedroom units should be turned off.

Lastly, once your booking is confirmed, you will be notified via this platform and via email. We also provide a copy of our Welcome Book which will be very helpful for planning tours, beach visits, renting a car and/or a boat, and checking out the list of restaurants for dining out. Please do not hesitate to reach out to us or our Property Managers for any questions; we look forward to hosting you soon.

Amazing

Flip flop was perfect for our group of ten with kids ages 9-17. Slept everyone perfectly. We loved the location and were happy to be centrally located on the island so halfway between our excursion starting points. Being able to use the amenities at the hide aways was also great. Communication with owner was phenomenal and he checked on us multiple times as did the property manager. Check in and instructions super easy as was check out. The house had beach chairs, floats, wagon and towels which all came in super handy. Kids loved playing foosball and poker and we also enjoyed games there such as sorry and charades. We sat on the screened in porch both morning and evenings and soaked in the views. We had the best week in Exuma! Hands down would stay at this house again.

Beautiful home and great location

The house is beautiful and extremely comfortable. We enjoyed the family room downstairs and the open floor plan upstairs. The view out to the harbor from the upstairs porch was a perfect place to sit and have coffee in the morning. It was a perfect location, easy to get to George Town and points north and south. We had lots of helpful information from the owner before arriving and Karin was a great resource once we arrived. If and when we make it back to Exuma, we would definitely stay here again.

Great stay at Flip Flops

This was our first time visiting Exuma. Loved Flip Flops on the Hilltop. Great location so we had easy access to everything we wanted to see. The house did not disappoint. We especially enjoyed coffee on the veranda while taking in the beautiful view. We had three generations on this trip and everyone enjoyed. The bed in the master was too soft for us and would be an extra perk if some beach chairs were provided. (so expensive to rent). Thanks for a great stay!

Home away from home

This home was simply lovely. It was perfect for our stay and the owners and property managers were so helpful every step of the way. We did rent a car during our stay and I’m glad we did so we could experience and explore the ENTIRE island. It’s was a dream come true to have been able to see the amazing water and have this house as the home base the entire time. I think the only thing that is missing are some beach chairs so you don’t have to rent them, but other than that the house was perfect in every way. Thank you for making the home accessible to us and we look forward to coming back in the future!

Christmas vacation

This was the perfect place to get away. The home is beautiful and comfortable with gorgeous views of the water. Waking distance to the beach with snorkeling to see tropical fish, sea turtles and a coral reef. The owners recommend great restaurants, plenty of things to do and all the best local beaches and are very friendly and helpful making the vacation everything we had hoped for.

Magical family vacation!

What a wonderful trip we enjoyed in Exuma at Flipflops on the Hilltop! Great location close to the airport and many of the activities we planned. The house was very well appointed for all of our needs, comfy beds, well stocked kitchen, and plenty of space for 2 families of 4. The kids loved Hideaways pool and beach with fantastic snorkeling right off the beach. We also rented a boat from Minns (5 min from house) and a car from Berlies (near airport) and beebopped to several beaches, reefs, and islands. Everyone was sad to leave and already looking forward to a return trip!

Fantastic stay at this beautiful Exuma, Bahamas property! (June 24-29) This spacious two-story house exceeded our expectations. It was immaculately clean, nicely furnished, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The washer and dryer were a bonus, and the full kitchen was well-equipped. We also appreciated the thoughtful touches like the ice chest and beach toys. The property was perfect for our group, and we felt right at home. The owners have done a great job of creating a cozy and inviting space. We would highly recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway in Exuma. 5 stars and hope to return someday soon.

Loved our stay at Flip Flops on the Hill

We enjoyed our stay at FFOTH. The home was clean and spacious. The kitchen was extremely well stocked and organized. We loved the upstairs screened in porch for morning coffee and evening crafting. The location is about a mile outside of Georgetown, right in the middle of the island. The Hideaways has many amenities, including a bar and grill and you can eat at the Fish Fry, less than a mile down the road. I hope we can make it to Exuma again--it is beautiful!!!

Spring Break 2024

The property is amazing. All the space we could need and a wonderful place to start and end our day! It is well located to travel about the island. The owners were so kind and flexible when our flights were canceled last minute and delayed our trip by two days. They refunded a night's accommodation which was so not expected - especially as it an airline related issue! They also gave us late check out so we could make the most of our last day. I would highly recommend this house. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Great time at FFOH

We had a wonderful time at this beautiful house! It’s a central location on the island. It was extremely clean and we had a comfortable stay. They provided ice chests and towels for our convenience and a few toiletries and washer pods to get us started. We had access to the Hideaway resort right across the street, and enjoyed walking there for beach, pool, kayak, bar and food access. Our kids thoroughly enjoyed the available activities at the Hideaway. The home is just minutes from Georgetown market area and close to two groceries. The property manager was so helpful and in constant communication when needed. She even warned of us a pre-planned power outage And told us where we could go eat if needed during the outage, which was much appreciated. I highly recommend staying at this property!

Wonderfully comfortable with every detail attended to. Home away from home for a family- Several sitting areas, high quality bedding, towels and linens. Excellent central location- yet extremely private and tucked away. Near to all Georgetowns excellent restaurants, beach stops and shopping. We also found the front desk of The Hideaways to be helpful with recommendations and bookings for excursions. So much to do in Georgetown- each day was full and perfect fit for all the entire family!

Excellent home in perfect location for 2 families

There are alot of things to love about this home. At the beginning, the communication with the owner was early and often. The check in process was excellent and the proximity and access to Hideaways facilities was used daily and a big plus, especially for the teens. The HUGE kitchen was open and not cramped. All the appliances worked well and the kitchen was well equipped. There were ice chests, games and plenty to keep the kids entertained. The upstairs view with fans and screened in porch was wonderful. There are too many things to list and would recommend and stay here again without hesitation.

My boyfriend and I along with a few other couples stayed here for a wedding weekend. The house is absolutely gorgeous - huge kitchen with screened in porch upstairs along with a master bedroom/bathroom and another half bath. There is 3 additional bedrooms downstairs with another full bath, large living room space and bar area. It’s a perfect location in the Hideaways - short walk to the beach and Splash bar and grille! Mike was very responsive the whole trip and answered all my questions. Highly recommend staying here with a large group of friends or family! Exuma was incredible and we will definitely be back.
