Fair Winds: Tropical Beach House, Stunning Ocean Views, Steps to the Beach!

Fair Winds is a true tropical beach house located on a hill with stunning turquoise ocean views, and a lush tropical garden! A quick 2 minute walk to our beach access with 1/2 mile of white sand, turquoise waters and a beautiful reef to snorkel and adventure on! The property is very private, with native Bahamian flowers, palms, and trees surrounding the grounds. The house is your home away from home with a beautiful kitchen, stocked with all the amenities a Chef will need! The Great Room is a focal point of the home, perfect for gatherings and enjoying the beautiful turquoise views. The Great Room, featuring built-in soft seating and a dining table for 8 guests, has stunning high ceilings and a wall of windows to look out over the ocean and palm trees! There are three bedrooms, 2 King bedrooms upstairs with 2 full baths, and the Garden Room located on the lower level has a Queen bed and a Twin bed with an on suite full bath. The wrap around deck provides a great place to enjoy the Bahamian breezes, tropical bird songs, and of course -THE VIEW! After a quick swim at the beach, enjoy the outdoor shower and snorkel gear rinse station. The outdoor barstools and rail provide the perfect spot for coffee or drinks while listening to the waves crash.

We are less than 10 minutes from the airport and within walking distance of a grocery and liquor store.

We can guide you to easy car and boat rentals or other island excursions to fall in love with Exuma!

We enjoyed our stay at Fair Winds. We had 2 adults and 2 children under 10 and the house had more than enough room for us. Kristin provided great recommendations for our trip and we had the best time! The house had everything we could have needed during our stay.

Perfection in Paradise
Our stay at Fair Winds in Exuma was amazing. The house and property are wonderful spaces to relax and enjoy the island life. From short walks down to the beach for incredible sunrises, to sitting on the porch to watch serene sunset, to perfect family meals around the big dining room table, everything was better than we could have hoped for. Kristin was the perfect host and gave us all the local tips on where to eat and what activities not to miss. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

The house & grounds are beautiful & well kept. The size was perfect for our family of 5 to sit, sleep & spread out. Central location to drive around the Island. Beach was very close but waves were bigger here during our stay, but our teenagers did not mind. Owner is very easy to Communicate with.

Lovely getaway
We spent a great month at Fair Winds. The house is attractive and very comfortable. We headed often to local beaches, did some bonefishing, found fun restaurants, and relaxed on the deck. The owners were very accommodating of our needs and local contact, Keno, helped with household requests and local recommendations. Love that hospitality!

An amazing home away from home in paradise
Thank u so much Kristen for sharing your beautiful home with us. We had everything we needed and more. The house is even better than the pictures. The beach right by the house was so beautiful and we always had it to ourselves. Kristen was always available for any questions and every recommendation she gave us was top notch. We wanted a relaxing vacation to recharge and it was exactly that. I feel in love with Exuma and plan to return and hope to stay at Fair Winds again.

Breezy and Beautiful View!
We loved Fair Winds! The house is beautifully decorated and appointed. The kitchen is well equipped and we enjoyed many meals in the spacious dining area. Love the porch and the back garden. We were so comfortable, it was hard to leave! The beach is a short walk. The ocean was rather rough and wavy when we were there, but I enjoyed the surf. The star gazing at night was amazing! And we appreciated the small touches. Only issue was that the bar area wine chiller and ice machine were not working during our stay. Would be a good idea to add some ice trays to the freezer in case this happens again. Thank you for a fantastic stay!

This was an unexpected gem. The photos do not give justice to the views from this little house. The decor highlights and compliments the aqua blue oceans. Easy walk to a beach with few visitors and quick access to small stores and Georgetown.

Comfortable Oasis
This is a great rental. The house is very comfortable and easy. We were two adults and two teens. We all had our own space and could come together for meals and game time. The location is easy to the airport, and accessing all of the island. The view is very nice as is the outside space. We actually didn't visit the local beach as we did tours (Exuma Cays and also rented a boat from Minns), and went to Rolleville. We were super pleased with this home and recommend it to others.

Thank you so much for a wonderful vacation. Your beautiful home was the perfect place for our family of four. We did it all! Local beach, Hooper's Bay, Big D's, Cocoplum Beach, Chat and Chill, Exuma Water Sports Pig Tour, Blu Restaurant, Tropic of Cancer Beach, Jolly Hall Beach, and even star gazing from the home. Love the warmth and care and quality and style of this home with countless amenities. Wonderful house manager, too. Definitely recommend Exuma and your home. Forever cherish the memories.

Heaven on Earth
This was our first time to the Bahamas and our group consisted of 4 cousins. The house was fabulous with a very private feel with beautiful landscaping & accents. The beach was about a 2 minute walk and we rarely encountered others. Everyone we met was super friendly & helpful. Kristen & Keno were both just a text away. Loved this location!

Exceptional home, host and experience!
Fair Winds was even more beautiful in person. The home was spacious, comfortable, sun lit, well airconditioned and had ceiling fans and sliding doors. You could see and hear the ocean from the kitchen, dining room and deck! Kristen was so communicative before and during the stay. She provided me with great details of things to do and many recommendations for eating, boat and car rentals and excursions. The kitchen had all we needed for cooking and meal prep. Kristen even provided a service where I could order groceries before I arrived so that the fridge was stocked when we got there. That was amazing! The two upstairs bedrooms were large with queen beds. The three bathrooms all had showers. The downstairs bedroom had a queen bed and a twin bed/day bed too. This one was more private with a sliding door entrance and it's bathroom was the largest. So you could fit a couple and their kids down there easily. Internet was great too. Kristen had beach chairs to use (small ones with carry bags so they were easy to take on my day trips) and beach towels. The only thing we needed to bring was our snorkel gear but turns out we didn't really even need that because we did a day trip which provided the gear. You can walk to a beach with waves in just 2 minutes. And drive to calmer beaches in 5-10 minutes. I did the close beach each morning and night and then drove to all the other beaches mid day. Parking at all beaches is easy. I will be returning to Fair Winds ASAP! Wonderful Experience

This loved home was perfect for our ladies vacation week. The house is exactly as pictured online. We walked to our nearby beach, which is like having a beach to yourself. The home is located near the airport, which was very convenient. The home had everything we needed during our stay. It is clean and very beach. The owner was so welcoming and gave us lots of information about restaurants, boat tours, etc. We had a great week in paradise and would stay at Fair Winds again!
