Ultimate Outdoor Living, In the Heart of the Action, High above it all
Giant vacation house with a total of 7 BR and 7 BA. Our 10,000 SF house is triple the size of most rental houses on Exuma. The Prime Minister stays at this house every April.
The oversized pool/hot tub/deck/cabana/100” outdoor movie theater are bigger and better than most Caribbean hotels. Experience seamless indoor-outdoor living with shaded lounges, open-air kitchen, secluded outdoor showers, island Tiki Sky Bar, and dining areas under the stars. All with exceptional panoramic views of the ocean. It is the most outstanding outdoor living space on the island.
Located at the apex of a hill above the Hotel Zone. Walk to three restaurants/beach bars at the base of the driveway as well as The Fish Fry. Walk to incredibly calm and beautiful Jolly Hall Beach. Walk to a private dock where you can board your boat, join an excursion, or catch the shuttle boat en route to Stocking Island and it’s five beach clubs including Da Sand Bar. Short drive to groceries and boat rental. LOCATION. IS. EVERYTHING. ON. EXUMA.

• For guests arriving in Exuma by personal boat, we have convenient nearby docking options.
THE HOUSE - Summit Exuma is no ordinary vacation house — it is a true island estate, where soaring 28’ ceilings evoke a sense of grandeur and opulence. Private 500-foot driveway secured by an iron gate. Inside, the estate features a gourmet kitchen with commercial ice maker, a fully equipped private fitness center, and even a self-playing Grand Piano. The craftsmanship and finishes throughout are unparalleled anywhere on the island.

THE LOCATION of your vacation home on Exuma is extremely important to the enjoyment of your trip. When your whole vacation is within 5 minutes of the house, your vacation explodes with choices. Unlike most rental homes that have no walkable restaurants or boat lift and require very long drives down the winding two-lane road just to get to a grocery store or rental boat, Summit Exuma is set in the island’s most coveted area atop the hotel district just outside Georgetown.
• Three restaurants/bars down the hill, at the base of the driveway. • The popular Fish Fry, home to 12 authentic Bahamian bars and restaurants including Shirley’s is a 1/4-mile to the right/south. • The ultra-protected and calm water Jolly Hall Beach is 300 yards to the north. Think of the perfect beach... this is it. • Quick taxi ride into George Town to hit the grocery store, straw market, Minn's Water Sports (boat rental), several more restaurants, boat shuttles to Stocking Island etc... • Stocking Island/Elizabeth Harbor is where most of the boating, sandbars, beach bars, and snorkeling on Exuma happens. This is where you want to be. (Summit guests can walk to a private dock and catch a prearranged shuttle boat en route to Stocking Island.)
Summit Exuma allows effortless exploration: from dining to boating to nightlife, your entire vacation is within minutes.
THE BEACH: Your Private Path to Paradise
Summit Exuma is just a short stroll from Jolly Hall Beach — widely regarded as the best calm-water swimming beach on Great Exuma.
• Accessed via a discreet path, this pristine beach remains untouched by commercial development. As with all beaches in the Bahamas, it is public, but its hidden entrance and low profile keep it serene and uncrowded. • Protected by surrounding islands and natural shoals, Jolly Hall Beach offers a half-mile stretch of tranquil shoreline, making it an ideal destination for swimming, relaxing, and savoring the beauty of Exuma as it was 50 years ago — and likely will be for generations to come.
While many vacation homes on Exuma showcase photos of idyllic, calm waters, the reality is that much of the island’s coastline experiences rough surf two-thirds of the time. Selecting a location with reliably calm waters is paramount, the best being Jolly Hall. Located down the hill and left 300 yards.
AMENITIES • Beach chairs, coolers, water floats, snorkel equipment, beach wagon, and lots of beach towels. • 9 smart TV's, cards and games for the kids and grown-ups, theater popcorn maker for movie night in the loft. • All beds have luxurious medium-plush mattresses and super-soft luxury linens. • Bathrooms: oversized bath towels, toilet paper, antibacterial hand soap, shampoo, body wash and conditioner. • Fully equipped kitchen: Two refrigerators, two freezers, two commercial ice makers, stainless-steel appliances, three-12 cup coffee makers, coffee grinder, Keurig, French press, cappuccino maker, Irish coffee mugs, cookware, blender, 12 Qt crock pot/pressure cooker, KitchenAid mixer, wine glasses, beer mugs, and so much more. • Garbage bags, dish soap, starter dishwasher detergent and paper towels.

A TRADITION OF LEGENDARY EXUMA HOSPITALITY
Enjoy SKY DECK and SKY BAR to the max: • While soaking in the hot tub, count stars and mast top lights of the 300 boats anchored off the Stocking Island. • Sit with family and friends at the Sky Bar overlooking all of Elizabeth Harbor and Stocking Island. • Watch your favorite movie or ball game while floating on a raft in our heated 1,100SF pool.
As the principal owners of The Peace and Plenty Hotel, we have been hosting on Exuma for over 20 years. We have mastered the art of showing people a good time while visiting this island. Our prime location is close to restaurants, bars, and boats heading out onto Elizabeth Harbor unlocks an incredible vacation.
-Rent a boat at Minn's and go explore. Experience the enjoyment of boating from island to island in some of the most beautiful waters in the world.
-Spend your day bouncing between Peace and Plenty Beach Club, Chat N Chill, and Baymoni Beach Club snorkeling reefs, sand bars, and swiming with the sting rays. Walk from the monument or explore the 2-mile windward “wild ocean” beach on the other side of Stocking Island. A great natural adventure for the whole family.
-Take a guided group excursion. Meet like-minded people. Some have described them as the experience of a lifetime.
-Get a boat and captain and let the day take you. Boat can pick you up right off the beach or private dock across the street.

Summit House was wonderful and Nicky did an awesome job of answering any questions we had and making the stay enjoyable! We will definitely stay here again!
We had an amazing time at the Summit Exuma house. My daughters birthday was spectacular. The views are amazing and everyone who works at the Summit. House is extremely helpful.
We loved our stay at Summitt Exuma! The house and view of the ocean were amazing. My family enjoyed using the pool, overlooking the ocean, playing pool and using the snorkeling gear. The kitchen, filtered water, and ice maker were all a bonus as well. The grand piano was a joy to play too!Nicky was kind enough to introduce us to a great boat tour as well. The trip exceeded our already high standards expectations. We are very much hoping to be back!
The location, the house, the resort and other amenities That accompany this house made our stay one of a kind! Thank you to the owners and to Nicki for being such great hosts!
We were 3 families with a group of 17 (ages 10-62). The Summit House was the perfect house for our large group. There was plenty of space for everyone. Not one time did we ever feel “crowded.” The house was also in such a convenient location. The kitchen was well stocked with plenty of pots, appliances, bowls, dishes to accommodate a large group. We loved that the house also provided, coolers, bags, snorkel gear, etc for our fishing and tour excursions. The outdoor kitchen wasn’t complete yet but they provided a very nice outdoor grill until it is complete which worked out fine for us. The pool area is very nice and the view is GORGEOUS! Plenty of seating for a large group outside by the pool. Since the house is up on the hill, the walk to Jolly Hall Beach is not an “easy” walk in the heat and especially when carrying all the beach gear (that the house provides; chairs, floats, wagon, etc.) But the drive is only about 2 mins down the road. It’s worth it though! It was one of the prettiest and calmest beaches on the island!Lastly, I can’t say enough about Nicky, the house Manager. She was THE BEST!!! She started helping me with details, tips and excursions months before we arrived. She checked on us several times a day to make sure everything was good. Whatever we needed, she was willing to help. We can’t thank Nicky enough for how well she took care of us! Thanks again! EXUMA 2025 owes us nothing!
Me and my chilean family (10) had being planning this holiday for a whole year and 5 days before leaving, the host of the house we had already reserved and paid (Calypso House at Farmer´s Hill) cancelled our reservation whithout any reason. Desperate I contacted Jill and Steve. What a nice couple to work with!. They were just what I was looking for, quick answer and super kind. The house is in the best location: in the center for north and south beaches and walking distance to Jolly Hall, one of our favorites. It has 3 floors. First one with 3 rooms and 2 bathrooms and a living room and something like a mini kitchen. Second floor, where we spent all the time, just 1 HUGE bedroom with a HUGE bathroom and walking closet, with a wonderful view. Besides the room there is a large living room and dining room for at least 12 people. Also a super kitchen, with 2 ovens and everything you might need and a piano!!!! which my son really enjoyed. The 3rd floor has 3 open rooms, which are not completely separeted. We were the first guests and they clearly stated that the house was not ready, but I didn´t even notice. It has everything (towels, cooler, etc.)
