Experience the Real Bahamas!

Enjoy two nights in a stunning one-bedroom, ocean-front villa at the AAA Four Diamond-rated Grand Isle Resort on Great Exuma in the Bahamas. Situated on the ivory crescent-shaped beach of Emerald Bay, the 1,040-square-foot villa - with a king bed and a pull-out full-size sofa bed, large living area, bedroom and bathroom, custom-designed furnishings, fully-appointed gourmet kitchen, large waterfront balcony, washer and dryer, and its own golf cart - is ideally suited for a romantic getaway, an unforgettable experience with family and friends, or simply enjoying the Exuma lifestyle.

The resort offers the utmost in quality, privacy and space, yet nature remains the focal point with views to the ocean, lush gardens, and dramatic fairways of the golf course that lies adjacent to the resort. The resort's staff is as kind, warm, thoughtful, and happy as they are attentive and professional. The Grand Isle restaurant - The Palapa Grill - is exceptional and offers an authentic taste of the Caribbean, complete with tropical cocktails and fresh, local ingredients; meals also can be made available in the privacy of your villa or balcony. From the architecture, landscaping and interior design to a host of modern and thoughtful conveniences, the villa - and the resort - offer luxury and quality with all the comforts of home. Exuma represents the antithesis of glitz by providing an authentic laid-back Bahamian lifestyle experience, while Grand Isle Resort provides the ultimate luxury villas to suit the demands of today's modern nomad.
Resort

Great Exuma and its Cays are the most exotic of the Bahamas Out Islands, and the most authentic. A collection of 365 tiny jewel-like islands - most of them uninhabited - Exuma is world-renowned for its magnificent coral reefs, colorful sea life, and powdery white-sand beaches offering the ultimate Caribbean experience. It's all about life on the water and a totally laid-back Bahamian lifestyle that has been the best-kept secret of savvy tropical vacationers. Gentle winds help maintain a balmy and warm tropical climate year-round, with summer temperatures ranging between 80-90 degrees and winter temperatures rarely dropping below 78 degrees. Great Exuma is located just above the Tropic of Cancer and is roughly 120 miles southeast of Nassau, Bahamas and 300 miles southeast of Miami (a 30-minute flight); Grand Isle Resort is less than a 20-minute drive from the Great Exuma airport, making it extremely quick and easy to get to from the Washington, DC area.
