DILLYCRAB BEACH HOUSE: POOL/GAMES ROOM: Pool Table/Table Tennis/StarLink/Solar


Centrally Located so you can dine, shop, and explore both ends of the island easily. There is Tim’s on the Bay bar and restaurant at the opposite end of the beach. Liquor store and gas station 5 minutes away and groceries 15 minutes.
From your house, enjoy the sunrise and Ocean view and easterly breezes. 2 MILES of silky WHITE SAND BEACH and the prettiest TURQUOISE WATER you will ever see. A mile out you have your own "PRIVATE ISLAND" to explore!!!
The Oceanside Tree House Deck set between 4 palm trees is a fantastic place to find sun and shade.. AND what a view from there! Your house has an unobstructed view of the ocean and is just steps away from the Treehouse deck and the stairs down to the beach protecting the sand dunes.
Enjoy your PRIVATE POOL for your morning dip or evening cocktails. A GARDEN OASIS curated with flowers and over 65 coconut palm trees will surround you bringing bird song and the sound of palm fronds rustling in the breeze.

CLEAN ENERGY: stored in the Airplane Hangar (our giant garage!)we have an 18KW Solar Power and Tesla Power Wall back up system means you not only will be able to enjoy a guilt free carbon neutral vacation, you also won’t be affected by the (often) blackouts that happen on Exuma. At Dillycrab the lights stay on, your beer stays cold and your ice never melts!!! We are the first rental guest House on the island that is committed to Carbon Neutral! The extra energy we make goes back into the GRID! We also have STARLINK WIFI so if you really have to answer an email while on vacation.. no worries!

Drive 5 min to the gas station and liquor store, 15 min. to Prime Island Groceries and 20 min. George Town, and the Fish Frye(7 shacks) for great local cheap food (lobster, BBQ).

Activities: Exuma offers incredible bone-fishing and deep-sea fishing. If fishing is not your thing RENT A BOAT and seek your own adventure, snorkelling, sandbars, turtles.. (No license required)
..OR have OUT ISLAND EXPLORERS show you around the Exuma Waters. Kayak mangroves, scuba dive, do a tour of the Exuma Cays (see the famous swimming pigs). Check out a full day or half day excursion up the Cays to see swimming pigs and my favourite, swim with the sharks! Do the 7 Beach boat Tour with Exuma Water Sports!

If you want privacy and relaxation, relax by the pool or walk and swim the gorgeous beach or hang out in the hammock with a good book that you wanted to read. Barbecue poolside and enjoy a tropical drink while the sun goes down.
Hire an IN HOUSE CHEF..and have a Massage at the House, relax like the Rich and Famous. ..AND for those early birds, long beach walks in silky sand, or relax on the veranda with a freshly brewed cup of coffee and enjoy the beautiful sunrise.

Paradise

Dilly Crab Beach House was amazing! Top notch rental with best location on a sandy beach. Deck with sun loungers offered a gentle breeze and a great place for cocktails. The pool was refreshing and loved the two birds that visited us. The upper porch was our morning place for breakfast as we planned the day’s activities. The host, Michele, provided excellent communications regarding restaurants, places to visit, boat tours and food/bakery options. We loved the full day boat tour and glass bottom kayaks. We also enjoyed the straw markets and trips to Stocking Island. A wonderful vacation with close friends that we will remember forever. Thanks for the memories!

Perfect Setting

The owners obviously take great pride in this home and have done a great job continually maintaining the property.The owners have thought of everything to make stays at Dilly Crab comfortable, enjoyable and convenient. All the beach/ocean/pool details are well thought out and covered... a beach cart for hauling all your necessities to the ocean, coolers, life jackets, ocean toys, towels, kayaks, boogie boards, paddles, pool toys, etc. You name it, they have it.The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need to prepare meals, as well as an outdoor grill and bar, ready to go.They even have a hot/cold water cooler and plenty of tumblers so you're not dealing with your kids' unfinished plastic water bottles all over the house :).Will definitely stay here next time we're heading to Exuma!

A slice of heaven

Loved our week at Dillycrab. It’s a very cool property bc it offers a lot to do. It’s not just a place to store your clothes. They have kyaks, snorkel gear, ping pong, and a pool table……and a pool! The property even comes with an interesting bird named Ralph who seemed to be there every day. It’s a 10 minute drive from the airport which was super convenient. The property manager/owner was easy to work with and even arranged for coconuts to be cut down for us to enjoy. Thank you Michele for a great week.

Best sand ever and gorgeous beach! Great location near airport but not bothered by jet noise. Easy to get around by car. Comfortable, well outfitted house with lots of "toys" in the rec room, pool floats, nice pool. Honestly, our friendly, helpful hosts thought of everything. We had a great stay and would definitely consider going back.

Perfect island getaway!

This beach house has it all! Stunning views, beautiful pool, lush landscaping, and well thought-through interiors. Just steps away from the sand and sea, we enjoyed coffee overlooking the waves and endless white sand each morning! Excellent location near the airport and well-positioned to access both ends of the island with ease. The kitchen is fully equipped and the downstairs game room is a teenagers dream! Additionally, everything you need for the perfect beach vacation is there - beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers and more. The home owner and property management team were wonderful! Highly recommend this property. FIVE STARS!

Why they chose this property

From a blind date to a 30 year journey, Howard and I have survived many ups and downs. We are best friends and this has carried us through parenthood and life as entrepreneurs.
Having a Beach House in Exuma has been a dream come true! It took many years of hard work and still more hard work to come. We wanted to have a place where all of our kids and grandkids would be happy to play and create wonderful memories.

What makes this property unique

Dillycrab magic happened! The first time we were renting like you. I woke up to the sunrise spreading its glory over the ocean without even lifting my head off the pillow. With coffee in hand, I lay in the hammock on the porch and watched the ocean in every shade of blue and turquoise while little birds in the palm trees were singing away, a dove cooing in the nearby tree, the gentle warm salt air caressing my skin..I was in Love. I was in Paradise!
There are 65 palm trees that create an island oasis.( Love the sound of palm fronds rustling in the breeze.. and the oceans music from every room in the house.)
Right in front of the property is a beautiful island you can paddle out to, sailboats in the distance. It is like a picture book. I have travelled to a lot of Caribbean islands but I have never experienced such turquoise water and such white soft sand. I also have never experience what it is like to have a 2 mile Beach to wander and lucky to see another soul.. never hassled and feeling safe as a woman to walk alone....This made me fall deeper in love..
I can not even tell you about how much fun and family bonding time we have experience sipping cool drinks floating in the pool..I never thought before Exuma that that would become one of my favourite things to do! There is sun as well as shade from palms on the pool deck for all day pleasure. Dillycrab is wonderful and lots of spaces to spread out. There are fun spots and quiet spots and spots to feel alone with a good book and spots to play together.. it is like your own mini resort, lots to do or nothing to do.
As you can see we LOVE Dillycrab.
