Why summit Exuma?
The House, The Location, The View
The House
Spanning an impressive 10,000 square feet and valued at a remarkable $7 Million, this property offers an unrivaled blend of luxury and grandeur. The Summit Exuma boasts panoramic views of Stocking Island and Elizabeth Harbour, visible from the expansive windows and decks across its three majestic levels.
Key Features:
A sophisticated self-playing Grand Piano on the second floor enhances the ambiance with its melody.
A dedicated Private Gym/Fitness Center for your wellness and fitness pursuits.
Soaring 28’ ceilings that add to the majestic feel of the space.
A 500’ private driveway leading up the hill, ensuring privacy and a grand entrance, complete with a gated entry.
The property is encircled by an 8’ high stone wall, providing a serene and secure sanctuary.
The Location
Summit Exuma’s location allows for a much broader vacation than most rental homes on Exuma. Half of your amenities and fun is a 3-minute walk down the hill and the other half is accessible only 1 mile away in Georgetown. This unlocks a much more diverse vacation because you can move around and change venues easily and quickly. Conversely, most rental homes on Exuma will have you enduring a lot of 20-minute car rides that force you to commit to one venue at a time. If the weather changes, your destination decides to be closed, or a member of your group decides to bail out, it can really kill your day. When your whole vacation is within 5 minutes of the house, your vacation explodes with choices and ensures that nobody in your group has to endure something that they are not in the mood for.
Walking distance to 3 American-style, oceanfront restaurants/bars, 12 Bahamian restaurants/bars, and the best calm water beach on Exuma. Also, Georgetown is only 1 mile away, which provides every other amenity as well as the ever-important boat access to the wonders of Stocking Island/Elizabeth Harbour.
The three hotels at the base of our hill each feature oceanfront bars/restaurants. This is a huge convenience for Summit guests for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. BTW, one spot has great pizza. In contrast, most rental homes on Exuma have no walkable restaurants and usually require long drives down the winding two-lane road.
The lively “Fish Fry” is located a walkable 1/3 mile from Summit Exuma and features 12 Bahamian-owned small bars and restaurants. Shirley’s restaurant is the most popular.
While most pictures that show rental homes on Exuma feature photos of super calm ocean water, the reality is that the water is rough 2/3 of the time on Exuma. That is a big deal when planning your activities for your time on vacation. Therefore, finding spots with consistently calm water is paramount. On mainland Exuma, there are only a few choices, with the best being Jolly Hall Beach. Jolly Hall Beach is located down the hill and left 300 yards. The ½ mile beach is protected by surrounding islands and shoals from the prevailing winds and waves and therefore delivers a fantastic swimming experience almost every day. The other choice for good calm water are the two beach clubs on Stocking Island (Peace and Plenty Beach Club and The Chat n Chill). That, of course, requires you to drive to Georgetown to get on one of the two boat shuttles which service those beach clubs
The View
The elevated view of Stocking Island/Elizabeth Harbour from all three floors of Summit Exuma is breathtaking. Most rental homes show a nice slice of ocean, but very few provide a grand, commanding view of all of the 6-mile-long Elizabeth Harbour. That’s Summit Exuma!
