The cottage was a no-frills very comfortable place for my husband, daughter and I. It was very clean and well laid out. Everything we needed was there. We loved coffee on the screen porch overlooking Elizabeth Harbor and afternoons at the beach across the street. Easy access to both the north and south ends of the island - both worth visiting.

We very much enjoyed our stay at Buttercup Cottage! It was perfect for two couples. The beach across the street is beautiful and the supplied beach chairs, towels and umbrellas were so nice. Monica was very responsive when we had a question or need. We especially enjoyed the porch for morning coffee and evening cocktails!

Minns cottages... just what they advertised they were. Stayed 10 days.
Quaint, cozy and had everything we needed for an awesome first visit to Exuma! Location was awesome! Perfect to drive and explore the entire island. Wonderful little beach a few steps away...And we had it to ourselves every single day! Kitchen well stocked with what we needed for the breakfast and a few meals we cooked in. Ate out somewhere different every night! Owner is awesome and responsive. Thank you Monica for everything. We will be back! Exuma stole our hearts!

This little home has it all, the best location, the best property manager and the best service. Monica went beyond the norm to make sure our stay was truly special. From arranging a very special birthday cake for my mom to making sure the home was well equipped at all times. Very relax, checking and checkout process, always giving priority to our family!
This trip to the exuma and the Minns cottages is a new family tradition. See you all next year!

We had a wonderful trip to Exumas. Minns Cottages was the best location for all the things, events we planned. Everything from the check in and check out process was simple and easy. Communication from the owner to find the cottages was on point. We were met with kindness the entire trip from the staff and the owner. We had troubles with our flights out of town, and they were super helpful and accommodating through it all. I can't thank them enough for their kindness and hospitality. Minns Cottage was perfect for us!!!

We loved our stay at Minns cottages. The cottage was so clean and well equipped with everything we needed. Monica was always quick to communicate and very helpful with any questions or issues that we had. However it was also very private and quiet which we appreciated so much. There was a lovely beach across the road and Georgetown was only a 5-10 min walk - we went to town numerous times most days. I would HIGHLY recommend Minns cottages. We LOVED our stay and hope to return. Thank you so much Monica.

This house was well equipped with towels, linens, things we needed to cook in the kitchen.
We felt safe and enjoyed the exclusive feel of the home. The couch wasn’t as comfy as we would had hoped. But overall we felt as though the value was good.

Everything was great. Kitchen was fully stocked with plates, pans, towels, dish soap etc etc- just bring your food. Beds were great, as was AC, wifi, porch, TV, etc. Even had a pair of binoculars! See you next year!

Monica had our cottage cooled down, refrigerator stocked with basics since the grocery stores were closed and lights on when we arrived Friday evening.. The cottage was clean and just right for our family get together another. Across the street was our own private beach. The snorkeling on the reef there was fantastic. Lots of starfish, tropical fish and a couple stingrays. The location was perfect being only a short distance to downtown Georgetown. We highly recommend Minns cottages!

My adult daughter and I loved our stay at Buttercup Cottage. The view from the front porch where we ate breakfast every morning was beautiful. We had an almost private beach across the street to enjoy with chairs, towels and cooler onsite to borrow. Monica had some groceries waiting in the refrigerator since we arrived after the stores had closed our first night which was so nice. Monica always responded to any Exuma questions promptly and gave great suggestions for our trip! She personally met us at the cottage when we arrived and we enjoyed meeting her. The cottage is close to Georgetown and conveniently located to explore the island. We can’t wait to go back!

My wife and I have been sailing through the Exumas but didn’t have enough room on our boat to host our friends. Minns Cottages was the perfect home base for hosting friends for the week. We loved the convenient location (and even anchored our boat in the bay across the street!); it was great to be able to walk to town for groceries and to the Fish Fry for dinner. We also enjoyed the beach and snorkeling across the street. The cottage was well-equipped for cooking and we used the grill twice! Monica was communicative and helpful, answering questions and recommending a taxi service when needed. All in all, I highly recommend Minns Cottage if you are coming to the George Town area.

Buttercup cottage was a perfect place with all the amenities! Large bedrooms with very comfortable beds! Monica was great with communication and was there to show us the home. The beach was right across the street and town was only a couple minutes away. Would definitely recommend this beautiful cottage!

Buttercup is darling! Chloe was wonderful at check in, the property was very clean and the AC was cold! Screened in porch was really nice, had breakfast there a few mornings. Kitchen has all you need, both bathrooms are in good working order as are things in the kitchen. Will stay there again!

If you are looking for a true Bahamian experience then look no further! Buttercup Cottage & Monica & Michael Minns were wonderful hosts. All your basic needs (including beach towels, beach chairs, cooler, snorkeling equipment, washer/dryer) & more are met. The cottage is clean, comfortable, centrally located (you can walk to Georgetown) on the island & some of the best snorkeling is directly across from you in Queen’s Harbour; brain & finger coral; sting rays, numerous fish including starfish the size of dinner plates & more. Monica graciously offered to grocery shop for us as we were arriving after the stores closed. She greeted us upon arrival & helped us to get settled. Rent an SUV/Jeep & explore the island from tip to tip, and watch out for the potholes! There are many beautiful beaches to be found (Hooper Bay, Pretty Molly Bay, Tropic of Cancer, Coco Plum) & conch fritters to taste (the best we found were at Club Arawak). Be prepared for the ‘no see em’ bugs & just expect to get a few bites - it’s just part of being on an island! Use baby oil to keep them at bay. The main road runs in front of the cottage, but don’t let this deter you. The screened in porch drinking a cup of coffee or cocktail was a delightful place to watch the sunrise & locals as they passed by. We will be back!

This property was wonderful!! We went as a family of 10. We stayed in Buttercup & the other family members rented the cottages around us. Clean cool and wonderful!!! The views were gorgeous!! The beach was directly across the street and a beautiful sandbar. It was a wonderful week. The owner was next door and he was a world of information. Fabulous trip. Highly recommend!!
