Designed for privacy and exclusivity, Villa Tatutina is a spectacular tropical estate that has been described as one of the finest and most unique properties in all of the Bahamas: “The Very Best in Island Living”. Located on Abaco Island (the out-islands), the property is close to the US mainland and other "touristy" areas of the Caribbean, but upon arrival, you will see that it's truly a world away. This oasis is not for everyone - there are no cruise ships, high-rises or crowds. This is an opportunity for a unique vacation, set at your own pace, to experience authentic destinations and activities that are off-the-beaten path.
The estate is situated on beautifully landscaped and gated grounds overlooking the harbour where the views and sunsets are breathtaking. The estate offers every amenity expected of a true luxury residence. The tropical gardens surrounding the property are extraordinary. Massive royal palms and lush highbred tropical foliage are in such abundance you have to see to believe. Outdoor entertaining areas include a towering pavilion that overlooks a beautiful infinity pool accented with hand painted tiles and cascading waterfalls over rock formations. This spectacular area has a fabulous view of the harbor. A back-up generator, air conditioning and on-site laundry are highlighted amenities that ensure a comfortable stay.
** Nightly Rental Rate includes up to 16 guests. Additional guest fee incurred for 17 or more guests; total guest counts above 20 must be discussed with owner. Children 2 years and younger stay free. **

We rented Villa Tatting for our company retreat and it was perfect. We all had space and the gathering house and pool made it easy for everyone to gather when we wanted to. The private villas gave everyone privacy as well. 10/10 would recommend. The staff onsite and offsite were extremely responsive, friendly and accommodating!

We were there the 2nd week of July '19. The location and home were as advertised, really nice property, well outfitted, very nice dock and great location. Staff was very nice and helpful (took sometime to hear back a couple of times, but all in all everything got done). Only ONE HUGE issue......We reserved this home because my neighbors had it last summer and raved about it, ESPECIALLY the "master suite".
The new owner has recently taken it for himself and made a new "master suite". TOTAL JOKE ! We would have taken one of the guest suites, but our friends with kids needed them. The "new" master suite might pass for a room at the Holiday Inn (and that's being kind). Small, no closet, no internet (in that room only), no tv, no box spring, just a cheap mattress on plywood, with sharp, exposed corners. I cut myself badly and will no doubt have that scar for the rest of my days ( I have the pictures of the chunk it took out of my shin and all the blood). For that much money, the master was a real disappointment. Anyway, such is life, other than the master suite, it's pretty cool.

Where do we begin? First of all, want to let everyone know about two amazing people who we met. First, there was Carolyn the property manager who was so helpful with everything, who answered my numerous emails so quickly, made arrangments for two birthday cakes to be made for my grand twins 11th golden birthday and delivered! Then there was Willie who was at the property every day bright and early to make sure that things were ready for the day, and made sure that we had everything we needed.
When we first arrived at the property we knew we landed in Paradise. The grounds on the property were amazing and the different buildings, which we called our houses, were exactly what we thought they would be. We spent the week with our two sons and their families. The gathering house was the best place for all of us to enjoy our meals together in the mornings. Each family had their own house to stay in and we never worried about waking others up since we all had our separate sleeping quarters. The one house with the kids sleeping area is amazing, but one note, to get up there you have to climb a ladder stair. We had a three-year-old that we would not allow them to go up because it was steep! The pool area was huge and great for all. A small sandy area with a hammock for the little one. There was also a hot tub that was great for the chilly nights that we had. The outdoor kitchen was perfect for the evening meals. The dock for our boat was great. Would love to have had some chairs on the dock for some night fishing that we did. The property was gated and we never thought once about locking up the houses when we left. The laundry facility on the property was great to have midweek. I just can't say enough about this property. Thank you for allowing us to spend the week at the lovely property and we will be back!

Much is expected at a five-star villa and EVERYTHING went way beyond that. No detail is overlooked. We especially enjoyed the outdoor kitchen with double sink with garbage disposal, dishwasher, refrigerator, fully stocked with silverware, dishes and glasses. Bren and Willy could not have been more helpful and that is an understatement. The bags of ice and five gallon jugs of water delivered every day was a nice touch. The dock could not have been better for mooring a boat and the dock house was very convenient for storing equipment and cleaning fish and lobster. You can NOT go wrong with this Villa, the price is more than reasonable considering all you get. We will certainly return next year.

Breath taking
Bren was absolutely fantastic. Helpful,nice and gracious . The property and the services provided could not be any better. We travel and stay at a lot of 5 star destinations so the only thing I can come up with this must be 6 stars. Thank you Bren for a wonderful stay!!!

Villa Tatutina has to be the most beautiful & relaxing property on the island.
What a wonderful week. Just too short. The villa itself is a work of art and the landscaping & pool are truly outstanding. We have traveled quite a bit & never stayed anywhere nicer. Our grandchildren are still talking about how much they enjoyed it. I hope we can return .

Amazing
It is very hard to express how great this place is. It met every need we had and Bren was great to deal with. We can not wait to go back and stay at the same place. Next time I hope we can stay two weeks.

This is it! A truly awesome private resort!
Wow!
One is never sure of what to expect when booking any private vacation Villa. We hope to find an accommodation that looks at least pretty close in person to what pictures are posted online.
After exhaustive online research, I decided that the Villa Tatutina also seemed to fit in with our own luxurious vacation home venue ideas. With fingers crossed, I secured the week, and I set out to "fill in" the rest of the details for excursions, boat rentals, and the like.
From the very start, Villa Tatutina's gracious owner, Ms. Bren Barlow, proved to be an invaluable asset for our vacation's coordination process. Need a boat rental?; no problem, she will help with suggestions and contact information. A rental car? She helps not only get things set up, but she actually has the vehicle delivered to the villa in advance, and takes care of handling the paperwork! How about a private butler who can help set up an amazing private chef...or a private musician group? No problem, she knows the perfect person! Need a talented masseuse, or an expert local guide for offshore or inshore fishing? Yep, her recommended privately sourced butler can help with that too!
The truth is that the online pictures do not do the Villa justice at all! The Villa and grounds, the overall ambiance and convenient design, the breathtaking landscaping and the truly unexpected attention to every detail....each are evident with every turn of the head. The pool and pavilions are truly large, luxuriously appointed, ideally sized for a large group....and the overall resort like "feel" of the architecture is uniquely inspired.
The Abaco islands themselves offer such a unique experience with nature's beauty...the island's reputation for amazing bone fishing, deep sea fishing, reef diving, sailing, beach combing...all of it is well earned. We swam with and even fed small sharks, gentle stingrays, hungry sea turtles...and even fed swimming pigs by hand!
We all agreed the best parts of each day involved coming "home" to Bren's amazing Villa Tatutina; splashing around the pool, dining at the summer kitchen pavilion, gathering around the leisure room at night, and falling into the comfort of luxury linens at the end of the evening. Even the ever present breezes made us wish we lived there full time, in "paradise found".
We found that the Villa price as charged was more fair than anywhere else we have yet stayed. What a vacation, and what a value!!

Great Experience
The property was excellent and the owner, Bren, is a fantastic lady. Anything we needed was taken care of and done with a smile. The beds, bathrooms, and living areas are perfect. We cooked a lot and the kitchen more than exceeded our expectations. This property is especially great if you have a boat. You can get gas just two docks over. Loading and unloading couldn't have been more convienent. We caught more fish than we could eat so Bren took us to a local pastor who is helping those who have very little and we gave the pastor what we had.

Our wedding would not have been possible without Bren and Tatutina
I've been going to the Abacos for a very long time. I never even considered having our wedding anywhere else.
When looking at places for the main family to stay, we found Villa Tatutina. The ability to come together when we wanted in the main house, pool, or dock but also importantly tuck away to our own privacy when needed, could not have been more perfect.
Our request of Bren was above and beyond normal guests for the week- we asked if we could throw our rehearsal dinner there as well. She was more than helpful and made sure everything was PERFECT at all times. Throughout the week, there was nothing that she didn't have ready with a smile.
I honestly can't say enough nice things after spending over a week there. Thank you, Bren. We couldn't have pulled it off without you.

Amazing Experience
We had two families staying at Villa Tatutina for a wedding along with numerous friends staying close by for 10 days and it could not have been a nicer experience. Bren and Willy were more than accommodating of our every need. We had the rehearsal dinner for 80 guests by the pool and it was truly magical.
As a boating group, we had rental boats from Blue Water and traveled to multiple adjacent islands enjoying the entire Bahamas experience.
Thank you Bren for your assistance when needed during our stay.

World Class Property & Owner
Usually not the type to write reviews, but compelled to do so for this Owner & Property. We are seasoned renters of Luxury and 5* properties. Villa Tatutina is in a class of its own. Online photos do not come close to what the Villa and grounds actually are. From the level of thought in designing the amazing property, detail, workmanship, quality of furnishings, professional layout and landscaping, to the amenities and location, all amazing. Bren the Owner is a class act and was genuinely a joy to engage with. Helpful, kind and resourceful beyond expectation and explanation. Willy, the Manager, our "go to guy" was so helpful throughout our two week stay. Our family all left feeling like we made new friends. Too many examples to share, but both Bren & Willy came through in so many ways from transportation, on-site assistance, recommendations for island hopping, boat rentals, deep sea fishing, etc. Each Villa is so amazing, offering our entire family privacy and "alone time" in high quality accommodations. Outdoor kitchen by pool and water simply spectacular with ice maker, fridge, Viking grill, overhead exhaust, dishwasher and music! So many areas for relaxing you have to see it to believe it, words just can't describe it. If you are boaters, the Villa is also set up from small crafts to very large with the Villa having its own docks and full service stations. Getting to and from airport super easy, 10 minute taxi and about $25 for full size van. Marsh Harbour area marinas, restaurants/bars super casual, good food, great drinks and about a 15 minute walk from Villa or not even a 5 minute drive. We used A&P car rental and had a van delivered to the Villa with Bren's assistance. Way to go once you get to understand the airports restrictions and rental agencies locations. Made a trip out to Treasure Cay area, beachside Coco Beach Bar & Grill has great set up. Good food and drinks. Investigate online for beach as they charge nominal fees for chairs and thatched covered tables. Definitely rent a boat (Blue Wave was our choice but know the fuel is $5 a gal and oil $65/gal) and do some Cay exploring. No Name Cay with the pigs running around was crazy fun. Abacos is so laid back. Never been prior, but would absolutely return. When that happens, we will be at no other place but Villa Tatutina. Amazing. Thanks Bren!

Fantastic way to bring in 2017
We took our family of 8 to Villa Tatutina the day after Christmas for one of the most fun weeks we have spent anywhere. The Villa is amazingly beautiful both inside and out. Nothing is left out. The landscaping is absolutely top notch and the layout and interior spaces are beautiful and immaculate. We took our boat and the dock was first rate as well. Marsh Harbour provides a great view of life in the Bahamas without a feeling of over commercialization. The owner was there, but totally unobtrusive. In fact we had to encourage her to spend time with us. She provided terrific insights into the island and surrounding areas for us to explore and enjoy. We can't wait to go back!

30th Anniversary Party
I am not sure where to start with how much we enjoyed our stay at this house. This property is amazing to say it mildly.... We went with three other couples for our 30th Anniversary. Bren (owner) was there when we where and she checked on us through out the day to make sure we have everything we needed. She was so knowledgeable about The Bahamas and things to do. You will not be disappointed with this property.....

Amazing Property and Service
We had 4 family's stay for 2 weeks. (18) The Owner( Bren) made herself available to us coming in, ( some by boat, some by plane), which is unheard of in the rental industry. What an elegant lady and so much knowledge to help our group with various activities. The grounds and facilities were excellent and every request was met with a smile and desire to go beyond our wishes. Bren's caretaker Willie was the nicest guy. Always pop'ed in when we had any little request. The kids loved the pool, crossing over to the over side to snorkel the reef's and the dock and boat house where gathering spots for evening drinks and some night time fishing. (even caught a tarpon off the back of the boat!) The layout of the property couldn't be better, with outdoor grilling, covered socializing area's and upscale kitchen's in several building's. And Stock'ed to the brim with every cooking pot, pan's, dishes, and utensil's. the Villa has everything you need for your vacation.
I've been to most islands and stayed in some good and some not so good locations. This is by far the best location I've booked in my 20+years of coming to the Islands. For family and friends its unbeatable. Villa TaTuTina gets 5 gold stars from us!!!

Amazing property!
Our group of 10 adults had an amazing time at Villa Tatutina. The property is incredible! The pictures do not do it justice. The owner Bren was there, she is very fun to talk to and has all the local knowledge you could ever ask for. The work staff (mostly Willie) was always available to help with anything we asked for.
A short walk away we snorkeled on Mermaid Reef; excellent fish viewing and the surf was gentle.
Next time we'll get a boat to park on the very well appointed deck so we can explore some of the out islands.
Marsh itself is more built up than a lot of the other Bahamas islands, the grocery store is HUGE (by Bahamas standards), there are several banks and plenty of restaurants in town, but we mostly enjoyed the seclusion of the villa and cooked at the house. Can't recommend this place enough, we had a great time!

Danielle, Opelika Alabama
This was my first experience using VRBO. I was very shocked. I have been to the Bahamas nine times but this trip by far was the best one ever. This house was amazing. I cannot describe how beautiful everything was. The pictures don't do it justice. Its like being in your own private paradise. This place has any and everything you could possibly ever want. But most of all the people were awesome! They went far and beyond to make us happy. They helped us with renting a boat and groceries and everything in between. I definitely will be back to see Ms. Brenda and Willie as soon as possible. My whole group agreed they made us feel like family.

Excellent
We are a family of 11 that spent a week at Villa Tatutina. Three of us arrived by boat and were met by Willie, the grounds keeper, on the dock. We were expecting the Villa and grounds to be beautiful having seen all the pictures online, but were blown away with all the little details. Our 15 year old grandson was barely containing himself, he was so excited. Our tour began on the pier, where the little house there had everything you could possibly want for water skiing, including many various size life jackets. We went by the beautiful pool, with the waterfall and a basketball net, the outdoor kitchen, dining and lounge area. Willie pointed out the outside bath room and showed us where all the, beach towels, pool toys and floats were. Since we have a 4, 6 and 7 year old grandchildren, we were a little concerned about the bedrooms not being connected to the main gathering room but it turned out not to be a problem at all. Having the gathering room with its large lounge area, fully equipped kitchen, large dining room, powder room bath, and office allowed those who woke early or who stayed up late to watch tv, get something to eat, surf the net, watch a movie or just visit and play cards around the dining room table, without waking or bothering anyone else. There was plenty of room for us to spread out comfortably. All of the bedrooms were comfortable and beautiful. The upstairs kids bedroom was a big hit and one night the grands had a "sleep over" up there. We used this as a base of operations. We were diving 3 days and then would take day trips on our boat to other islands. Everyone really loved the pool and the basket ball net was a really great idea and was used a lot. We are already talking about a return stay!

Perfect Villa for a lot of people
We had a great time at Villa Tatutina and used this location as a home base. It's the perfect 'home" destination and then every day we ventured out to a different destination. It's big enough where everyone can have their own space to do what they want. The grounds were beautiful and the owner was very accommodating. The pool area was inviting and fun. The kitchens are great and we took full advantage of having them. We also felt safe and would not hesitate to return.

Best Family Vacation Ever!!!
Our group of 13 just spend a week at Villa Tatutina in June. We were a group of 4 children and 9 adults, ranging in age from 10 to 76. This was a second visit for most in our group. We had a fabulous time and would rate it as one of the best trips we have ever been on. The property is still stunningly amazing. The only problem was that we ran out of time. We had such an awesome experience, nobody wanted to leave. Everything worked perfectly. Air conditioning in other villas we have rented throughout the Caribbean is sometimes weak or broken. Everyone in our group stayed cool and comfortable. We enjoyed great meals from the poolside grill including jerk chicken, steak and lobster. The kids had a blast catching small grouper and other fish from the dock. The pool is absolutely wonderful, and was well used every day. If we weren't sitting on the steps talking or hanging out on the floats, we were playing water volleyball or basketball. There is a covered outdoor sitting area between the pool and outdoor kitchen that was a favorite spot for those enjoying reading. We had a fantastic time on the boat that is available with the villa. Captain Sam did a great job taking us places to find shells, snorkel, and swim with sea turtles. He also took us shopping and to a wonderful restaurant for lunch at Hope Town. Sightseeing by boat is a must. The villa is also within walking distance of the well known Jib Room and Mermaid Reef, both highly recommended. Having 2 minivans available with the villa is extremely convenient. It is really hard for me to adequately express what an awesome place Villa Tatutina is and I feel it's even better than photos represent. We are extremely fortunate to have been able to bring our family and friends here twice. We missed seeing John, the owner, on our trip this year, but he did call to check in on us. We enjoyed our time with him. In his absence, we were well taken care of by Willie who helps maintain this beautiful place and keeps everything running smoothly. He can also arrange local excursions for you. One of the things I enjoyed doing again on this visit was exploring around, taking pictures of all of the incredible landscaping, streams, water features, and well thought out structures that make up this property. When you take the time to look around with sincere appreciation for what a special place this is, it becomes quite clear there was a tremendous amount of heart that went into making it that way.

Gorgeous villa!!
For our fourth trip to Abaco we chose Villa Tatutina on the recommendation of friends who had been there. There were ten in our group and everyone had a wonderful stay. The grounds are picture perfect, the accommodations are comfortable and private, the gathering spaces are roomy and inviting. We especially liked the pool and gazebo area, spending a lot of time relaxing while watching the boats and activity in the harbor. Having a car available and a great place to dock our rental boat made getting around easy. The staff was pleasant and helpful. If you get a chance to have Andrea cook for you, you will not be disappointed. Her food and service was outstanding. We had a wonderful week and would certainly return.
