Compare Historic Hotels in Long Island

"Simply put, an amazing staff. They all were friendly, courteous, and above all, accommodating. The views from all sides of the resort are spectacular and cannot be topped. The views from our room overlooked the bay side and the colors of the water were unreal. A few steps (literally) to the other side of the resort and there was the most spectacular beach and ocean views. The majority of the people using this beach were hotel guests so it was basically a private beach. Cannot speak highly enough of this place, the staff and my time there. "

"If you are considering a trip to Exuma, this is the only property you should be considering. What makes this house so special is it has everything. The location, the space, an owner who is involved and a team in Exuma that is the best team I have ever experienced. From my first contact to my departure, the team at Blue Lagoon was on top of every single one of my requests. We spend a long weekend there to celebrate my husband's 50th birthday. The staff set up everything. When I say everything, I mean everything. Food was fully stocked when we arrived. Beautiful charcuterie boards and champagne waiting for us. I forgot to add ice to my list but they knew we would need it so picked it up...they just know what you want and need! The next day, they arranged a boat to pick us up literally at our back door. We walked outside and there was a boat to take us all over to some of the most beautiful spots and to pig island then dropped us back off right at our door step. The next day, I texted Larissa and asked if there was any chance she could get us some jet skis. Within an hour, we had jet skis delivered right to our back door. But the highlight was the birthday party. I asked for a birthday part on the beach with chef dinner, DJ, bartender...the works. Larissa did no disappoint. To be able to have a party like that in a location like that was something I would never have imagined. I have so much more to say but I'm out of characters! THE BEST!!!!!!!!"

"The location is absolutely beautiful. Enough seclusion to enjoy the stay but very close proximity to grocery and a few restaurants. The property owner is wonderful and very helpful/easy to communicate with. 5 stars all around!"

"This was the first time that my husband and I have been in the Bahamas. The Exuma Islands are amazing! We are super-happy with our stay at Bella Vista. The view was beyond expectation, and the location could not have been better. The unit was very clean and well equipped. We had everything we needed. The staff at the Hideaways are very helpful and friendly. The packet that we received from Michael and Roseann as soon as we booked was very useful. Michael and Roseanne were always quick to reply to any questions we had before and during our stay. We would definitely recommend Bella Vista. Thank you for a great experience."

"We chose the Villas for a destination wedding to share a special time with our families. The property is surrounded by beautiful blue waters- Serene and peaceful. The Villas are equipped with everything you need- and then some to make it extra convenient. The furniture is just right, cozy blankets, float pump and big grill were an extra great touch. Oh and life jackets too! We enjoyed the kayaks and exploring the small islands… and seeing the resident sea turtle pop his head up each day! They thought of everything to make the experience easy- leaving you needing for nothing - aside from some of Chef Shariqua’s delicious cooking!! Highly recommend some meals with Shariqua. We had an amazing experience -"

"Prior to our stay, Eric provided an island guide via email that we found incredibly helpful throughout our trip. Upon arrival, Tony met us at the airport and helped us get to the rental car building. Tony led us to the house and showed us around, making sure we had everything we needed. We had an absolutely amazing stay. Aqua Vista was so perfect that we didn't even feel the need to leave the house most days. We took the kayaks to a remote island, paddle boarded, went snorkeling, and collected shells (all at the house!!!). The kayaks, paddle boards, and snorkeling gear significantly improved our trip and we were so grateful that these things came with the house. The house was even better than the pictures and everything was spotless. The road leading up to the house is pretty rough, but we made it there in a Pacifica mini van just fine. Eric was extremely responsive and we had no trouble getting in touch with him when we needed to. I can't say enough great things about this rental - we would 100% stay again!"
