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.
