We had a wonderful 10 days at “This’ll Do!” The house is centrally located on the island and was perfect for our family of 4. The views were gorgeous. The beach in the backyard was perfect for our daughters and a great way to wind down at the end of the day after exploring the island. The island experienced a power outage while we were there and the house was well equipped to handle it - there were candles & headlamps which came in handy as we were eating dinner. Do yourself a favor, book this property and enjoy all that Exuma has to offer!

Great Family Trip

Our family was 4 adults and 2 kids ages 6 and 3. We found the property to have everything we needed. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds comfortable! The bathrooms were also very spacious and clean with nice showers. We found the kitchen well equipped. Plenty of space in the great room with sliding glass windows overlooking the view of the ocean. The deck had comfortable lounge chairs and a table for outdoor dining. We especially enjoyed the paver stone patio near the beach to enjoy happy hour!! The beach was spectacular!!! You could walk for miles in either direction in the softest sand imaginable! The waves were great fun to play in with no rocks. It was a bit windy while we were there so we had no problem with bugs. Harriet was great to work with and answered all our questions and always replied in a timely manner. Overall we would recommend this place to anyone looking for a great relaxing vacation!!!

Beauty beyond words!

We had a wonderful family stay at this beautiful property. The home is spacious and gave all of us plenty of room to spread out and be comfortable. Very large deck for relaxing on the lounge chairs, beautiful beach, enjoyed the kayak and even saw a turtle! Conveniently located, only a few minutes from Georgetown. Would definitely return!

This house has it all

This house is located on beautiful Tar Bay, close to everything. A short 5-min drive from the airport and a 10-minute drive to downtown Georgetown. Well-appointed, spacious and comfortable, the house is located on beautiful turquoise Tar Bay. We walked along the beach each morning and enjoyed lounging on the back deck star-gazing at night. Groceries and boat rentals are close and in-town. Attentive hosts also provided everything we needed for a terrific week.

House name says it all!

We very much enjoyed our week long stay at This ‘ill Do. The house and view were even more beautiful than the pictures in the listing. There were plenty of beach towels, the kitchen had everything you need (although we never really cooked), the bedrooms and bathrooms were spacious and comfortable, having a washer and dryer was nice and allowed us to pack light, and that view! We spent a lot of time on the deck overlooking the beach and loved the sounds of the waves hitting the beach. We got in the water occasionally at the house, but since there aren’t any barrier islands the water was not the calmest. Our communication with Harriet was great. She responded quickly to messages and made sure we had everything we needed. We did enjoy a couple excursions. We did the full day tour with Exuma Water Sports and it was an amazing day. Our other tour was a hydro bike tour of Moriah Harbour with Hydrowater Sports. It was such a fun experience being elevated on the bike we saw lots of sealife. During our week we also visited the main beaches. My only items I mentioned to Harriet regarding the house, but in no way was a negative is possibly adding darker shades to bedroom in case you want to sleep in a little. There were a couple other small things, but Harriet responded promptly to address them and again, it did not take away from our stay at all. If you’re thinking about it, just book This ‘ill do! You won’t regret it. Thank you Harriet!

Always Perfect

The beach, the house, the people, the property owner…always perfect! We love those property and the owners could not be more accommodating. This year we took a couple of day trips to explore some of the others beaches, but did not find anything that matched the beach we had right out our own back door.

This'll Do is an understatement!

A beautiful two bedroom home with large open middle kitchen/living/dining area, perfect for two couples. The home is set back from the road, unlike others in the area, and only steps from one of the most beautiful beaches and swimming areas we've been to- and we've been to many! Powdery sand beach extends right into the water for a long way. Very private, only a few other friendly people strolling the beach. Minutes to grocery stores and George Town. This is what we wanted, and this sure did Do! Oh, and the owner is very accessible, and friendly as can be.

Incredible place to stay

We had an amazing time at this property. Harriet was very responsive and great to deal with. The property is very spacious, and has absolutely everything you'll need. The beach that it is on, Tar Bay, is one of the best beaches on Exuma. This property is located basically in the middle of the island and is the perfect location and is accessible to all the island attractions. I would highly recommend this spot for anyone considering a trip to the Bahamas Jordan

Private white sand beach!

Excellent communication with the owner from booking through to the last day of our stay. Harriett was very accommodating and was very quick to respond. She prepared us well with a welcome sheet that had a lot of information about the house, where to shop, to which excursions to check out and plenty more. The house was absolutely gorgeous and only 5 mins from the airport. The property is directly on a private white sand beach and close to lots of restaurants and shops. The house was well stocked and very clean. We had a lot of fun at the beach. It was perfect for kids. A lot of stores are not open on Sunday. Exuma markets and Schmitty’s were the best grocery stores. There was a straw market close to Exuma Market for souvenirs. We took a day cruise with Coastline Adventures Exuma that took us to the different Cays, Thunderball grotto and a few other stops. We rented a car for our stay and explored Hooper’s Bay (turtles are down by the docks) and Cocoplum beach (sandbar with starfish and sand dollars). We also rented a boat from Minn’s water sports for the day which allowed us to explore 7miles of the Harbour (Starfish beach was a lot of fun and Man O war sand bar. We also stopped at Chat n Chill, we thought was over rated and ended up going to the Snappy Turtle) which was a lot of fun. I highly recommend this property. It was a wonderful stay for our family. Such a well maintained house in a great location and a fun island to explore.

this property was better than pictured online, was absolute heaven to stay here. the two beds in each bedroom were fabulous and the house had loads of accommodations! owners were so very helpful, and quick to respond to any questions. having the on-island caretaker was great! was a great place to have to be “stuck” during the many power cuts due to localized flooding and power grid issues. would stay here again in a heartbeat!
