Our group of 6 loved our stay at Las Breezes. The house provides an awesome view and there really was a steady sea breeze most of the time, as we sat on the back porch enjoying our morning coffee while the men cooked breakfast. The kitchen had everything we needed and was perfect for preparing afternoon beverages and appetizers or cooking up a meal for our group. The beds were comfy, and the bedroom air conditioners cooled the entire house with the help of the fans. We washed a load of clothes and enjoyed hanging them on the line to dry.
It was an easy drive to our beach, and it was very nice and private. We saw lots of fish and sea turtles under the pier and along the coral stone cliffs that border the sandy beach. We took the tandem kayak out a few times, and it was easy to handle in the gentle waves. With Smitty’s right down the hill, it was easy to pick up the juice and rum we needed to make the native’s Goombay Smash to enjoy for the day on our beach. Our stay-at-home day ended with grilled steaks from Prime Meats, just a mile down the Queen’s Highway.
Peter and Rita took care of all our needs. Rita greeted us upon our arrival with a tour of the sparkling clean house, and Peter welcomed us later in the day. Since Peter owns Exuma Cays Adventures, we booked a harbor tour with him for the next day. It was the highlight of our trip! He showed us all the best snorkel spots and beaches, and we knew exactly where to go on the day we rented our own boat. We also did the Exuma Cays tour with Peter, Rita and their son, Carmelo later in the week, hitting all the touristy spots you can’t miss on a trip to the Exumas.
When we return to Great Exuma, we wouldn’t think of staying anywhere else. The reviews can’t do justice to the experience we had in our own little piece of paradise. Hope you enjoy the redneck golf we left behind! If you’re smart, you’ll challenge Carmelo to a game, but be prepared to lose!
