About this apartment rental

Our 2 room beach apartment is ideal for a family who want a holiday or vacation DIRECTLY on what is regarded as the best beach to stay on in Exuma and the only beach with resident GREEN TURTLES. We were pleased to have won the traveler choice, and certificate of excellence awards for the third consecutive year from the worlds largest trip advisory organisation.
See our turtles-exuma.com and enjoy watching how our guests have interacted with the turtles and learn more about their lives and protection.
The apartment is particularly useful for parents with young children or those with accessibility issues as everything is on the ground floor and the few paces to the beach is on flat ground.
One Queen bed is in one room and a King or 2 Twins is in the other room - each room has its own shower room. A full kitchen has stove with oven, fridge, microwave, toaster, coffee makers etc.
Fully air conditioned plus ceiling fans for comfort together with flat screen TV, radio/CD player and FREE, UNLIMITED WiFi.
A patio with table and chairs allows for outdoor relaxing or meals.
Just a few seconds through the palm trees in our garden takes you directly onto the beautiful Hoopers Bay beach -a 1/2 mile (1 kilometer) long soft white sandy bay gently sloping into the incredibly blue safe and calm water which is ideal for all ages to swim, snorkel, play or kayak. Hoopers Bay is sheltered from the prevailing winds so is always calm and safe.
Some of the advantages of staying at our sandypalmsbahamas location are:-
--Direct "on the beach" position
--Peaceful and private situation with our grounds of 1.5 acres around the property
--Only 12 minutes from the international airport, less than 1 minute from a range of good local shops and 6 minutes from restaurants and George Town, the capital.
--FREE kayaks for our guests use
--Pickup for the private transfer to the swimming pigs tours.

This was my 3rd time to Exuma and I took my 2 teenagers for their first time. Peter and Betty were wonderful hosts. They answered my questions quickly and were waiting for us when we arrived to show us around their wonderful property. The location is wonderful, very close to 2 grocery stores and a short distance to Georgetown. I would definitely stay there again if I make it back to Exuma!

This property is in a good location right on the beautiful beach at Hoopers Bay, a stunning setting. Peter the owner was there to great us on our arrival, he is very welcoming. We had lots of questions about the area, Peter took time to tell us all about the island, he is able to arrange trips for you, car hire and fill you in on the history of the island. We really appreciated the time Peter spent with us, he and his wife Betty were perfect hosts for our stay on Exuma.

We would highly recommend this location and rental for folks that want to spend their time outside, sunning, swimming, reading, snorkeling, kayaking, boating, etc... A great value and wonderful neighborhood... two convenience stores well within waking distance. I would recommend renting the car as offered. It allows you to explore more of this awesome island and it’s courteous people. Just remember you are on island time ...

Great location, amazing hosts and beautiful island!
Great location, amazing hosts and beautiful island!
We can’t say enough about our first visit to beautiful Exuma! From the first communications with the hosts, Peter and Betty, we felt we would be in good hands and felt their warm welcome. We are a family of four with two boys (14 and 12 yrs old) and had a few questions about the location, access to services, rental of vehicle, what to do, etc. and they provided all necessary information from the get-go. They arranged for a pick-up at the airport and Patricia, the taxi driver, was the best! Peter met with us the first day to go over the basics and then took the time to provide us with local info, not-to-miss beaches, restaurants, activities and so much more! The location was perfect! Our youngest son was on the beach every morning by 7am to play in the sand and I followed a bit later to do yoga on the beach. We felt safe everywhere we went on the island. We had the beach to ourselves, along with the friendly Sea Turtles that swim in Hooper’s Bay! We rented a vehicle from the hosts, which was easy and practical. We spent one day on the southeast side of the island and visited Tropic of Cancer beach as well as Forbes Hill beach! Again, we were just a few families sharing these beautiful beaches! The next day we took Elvis’ water taxi, recommended by Peter, to visit Hamburger beach and Stocking Island! The extra 5$ to visit Hamburger beach was well worth it as we were alone to snorkel beautiful beaches and saw a Giant Starfish, a Barracuda, Sergeant Major fish and more. We then went to the main part of Stocking Island where we had fresh Conch Salad, which I LOVE! The Conch Salad guy gave us leftovers and we were able to feed the Stingrays! What an amazing feeling to touch and feed them! He then recommended a few coral reefs close by for some snorkeling! The next day, we visited the northeast side of the island where we visited Cocoplum beach, Exuma Point, Barraterre, Three Sister Rock beach, Emerald beach and a few more ;) Mary Anne and her staff at Exuma Point restaurant were so friendly amd helpful! And the food? Delicious!! The next day we did a full day tour with Coastline adventure where we got to swim with sharks, pigs, feed the most docile Iguanas, snorkel Thunderball grotto and ride a boat among the Exuma Cays! There is lots to do, great places to eat (you have to try the Guava pie at Shirley’s, the bbq chicken, pork or Grouper fingers at the Fish Shacks, and Conch salad! The local people are welcoming and very friendly! Two thumbs way up!!

Sandy Palms is an excellent choice to stay at. Right on gorgeous Hooper's Bay Beach. The villa & property are extremely well maintained by owners Betty & Peter Oxley & their staff. They are very attentive to your every need. All amenities are provided & are in excellent working order. We did boating, fishing, snorkeling, swimmimg, beaching & walking. Rent a vehicle & drive south to Little Exuma for lunch at Tropic Breeze with a spectacular view, beach & snorkeling. Drive further south to Williams Town for terrific rum cake at Mom's bakery. North of Sandals go to Big D's conch shack for superb conch salad on a great walking beach. In Georgetown go to Peace & Plenty boutique hotel for lunch at the pool bar with a terrific view across turquoise blue water to Stocking Island. You can also cook your own food at Sandy Palms & enjoy lot's of R & R on the beach. We are a family of 5 adults & have stayed at all of the Oxley properies over the last 7 years. We love all of them & have never been disappointed. We keep coming back & will continue to do so. Betty & Peter Oxley are very gracious & amiable hosts. You will not be disappointed. Sincerely, Bonnie & Ron Meyers - Toronto, Ontario, Canada
