Great Anniversary trip
The house is excellent for 2 couples. We only were two people on this trip. Plenty of beach towels ( don’t pack your own) that are large and soft. The beds are good. We stayed in the master bedroom the first 2 nights but then went to the other bedroom with a queen bed that has a much softer mattress. The back sliding door from the living area is broken and does not lock. It took us a few days to discover there are safes in both bedrooms, however; the safes are not bolted to the floor…. So what’s the use?The grills are sketchy but one works and that’s all we needed. Bathroom in the master bathroom has loose tile on the step into the shower that breaks off. Be careful. The location is great for traveling the whole island. We would stay here again. Really had a wonderful time at this place. Just wanted to give a couple tips on things that need improvement.

Girls trip
This is my 2nd stay at Villa Marjorie, this time with 2 of my friends. The location is central and super convenient. The back porch and beach are the best part of the house. We spent each night on the porch enjoying the view, breeze and sounds of the waves. Exiting the driveway can be difficult to see so take caution.

Description is NOT accurate
Lovely house but the description was not accurate. There are NOT three bedrooms as listed and the third “bed” is a fold out couch that doesn’t even lay flat. Very disappointing. As this was a family vacation our teens were so uncomfortable on couch they needed to stay with family in a different Vrbo. No laundry soap provided and not enough toilet paper. There is no check in book to help navigate that property very disappointing again.

What a hidden little gem of a stay on Tar Bay. The view from all the windows is amazing and with the beach at your patio. Everything was provided for. Additional backpack beach chairs were nice to have to go see all the other nearby beaches. Host was accommodating and great with communication. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

We had a nice stay in this location. Convenient to many beaches and a drive to the two extremes...Coco Plum and Tropic of Cancer but close to town and several other beaches. Well cared for place and have no complaints.

Peaceful Paradise
The property was just as described and shown in the pictures. Best location to stay on the island in our opinion. It was just me and my husband. The floats and kayaks were a plus. Everything you need is there. Even reusable bags that you will need if you have to go to any store for groceries. Jena is an amazing host, and we are so thankful she shared her piece of paradise with us!

No doubt, the location of this home is excellent. The views are gorgeous. The swing off the tree is there and awesome. The bathrooms had great showers, water pressure so that was good. The very unfortunate downsides: The home is NOT a 3 bedroom. It's a 2 bedroom. The view included a tore up kayak rack that belonged to the neighbors. The 2nd bedroom had no dresser or anywhere to put luggage to live out for a week. All the floats provided were useless for ocean use. Two had holes in them. The kitchenware was nasty, old and useless. The grill needed maintenance so they came out and fixed it thank goodness. Although it's a 2-person grill and not suitable for a home of that size. We had a lovely time... but the house had many shortcomings. But for the price, you definitely get what you pay for. If we return to Exuma, we will not stay here again. Sorry to bash...but just being honest. (I saw one honest review before I booked and I wished I had listened to it.)

This is was our second stay at Villa Majorie and it just gets better every visit . The host was always available and accommodating and was as usual a pleasure to speak with ! The description is exactly as promised . The best beach in the world in our opinion and the water … it’s almost like it’s not real … it’s the most turquoise in the island … we just relaxed outback in a picture perfect serene environment that makes you not want to ever leave ! Thank you again to the host and we can’t wait to get back !

This was our second visit to Exuma and super excited about the location of the home. 6 minutes from the airport, 10 minutes from down town Georgetown, and just minutes to different restaurants and beaches. This was a perfect home for my husband and I. It was quiet and clean. Thank you for opening up your home to us!

Quiet, clean home located right on the beach-PERFECT
For our annual winter getaway, we look for places like this one. It is quiet, modern, well equipped, conveniently located & directly on a beautiful beach. We like to take long daily walks and IMO this is the best beach type for that: sandy with some waves and VERY peaceful w/FEW people. What a great place! if you ever decide to sell, make sure you let us know

Beautiful house on the water
Villa Marjorie was a great house on a large soft, sandy beach. The house was well appointed, with a nice kitchen, pretty bathrooms and comfortable beds. Do note that the 3rd bedroom is the living room. The couch is a double recliner, not a pull out. My teen thought is was less than optimal for sleeping but you can always nap on the beach later (but beware the no-see-ums cause those suckers bite and you itch). The stretch of beach you will sit on has several houses and makes for a great morning or afternoon stroll. We didn't kayak too much as the water was rough, but it could be a fun activity. The other houses are close, but not too close so they don't bother you. All in all a great place for a small group to beach dream the days away.

I attended a wedding that was hosted on the same beach, so this rental was the perfect location. It is about 15 minutes from town which can get pricey if you take cabs, but the beachfront makes up for that. The host was super responsive throughout our stay, and we really enjoyed it!
