A little piece heaven
The home and location were amazing. The home owners so accommodating and friendly. Our family was looking for an exceptional location to unwind and connect. We had a week of perfect weather on a beautiful secluded beach. This vacation exceeded our expectation.

Perfect Location for Families on Exuma
We loved our stay perfect location on Exuma....we were able to visit both the southern end and the northern most end easily via the van provided! Families with kids will love Hoopers Bay in that the water was as calm as I have ever seen it in Exuma and clear. Added bonus was the sea turtles 🐢 and the kayaks!!! This location and house are ideally situated. I did all the research on this vacation and felt like I picked the best place overall on the island!!! The owners are delightful 😀

Family Sanctuary
Sandy Palms at Hooper Bay is what every family vacation spot wishes it could be. Powdery beaches with turquoise water steps from the back deck. Open the door and you can turn the kids loose with a snorkel and a frisbee only to return when they're hungry. Generations of sea turtles live in the bay. You can swim and take pictures with them all day long. With kayaking, sea shell collecting, swimming, and lounging to be had there isn't any reason to leave the beach house, except to reload on food and drink. The floorplan of the property is ideal for families (if you're ever inside). Peter and Betty go all out to make your stay perfect. This place is your own private sea world filled with sun and beauty. Don't tell your friends.

This is the place to swim with turtles
We had a fantastic time. Walking distance to stores. You will always see turtles in the water. Peter was great and we were able to get a van with the rental. He was helpful in hooking us up with a chef and various tours.

Beautiful view and great beach
The house was nice and roomy. Peter was very helpful and very friendly. He showed us around and gave us recommendations of where to eat and things to do. He was always around or an email away with any questions we had. Beach was beautiful and the turtles were amazing to see. Very nice relaxing vacation. The only issue we had was that the kitchen could use some updating on utensils and pots and pans. Would recommend to others.

Unanamously voted "By far the best vacation we've ever had" by all of us!
Peter was very informational and helpful, yet defintely respectful of our privacy. I feel as if we have made a new friend on the island! The house was fantastic and fit our needs perfectly. It goes without saying that the beach was amazing. We all agreed that we will be going back!

BEST Beach in ALL Exuma
We had a WONDERFUL stay in Hoopers Bay. Peter the owner was VERY helpful. He had maps and detailed directions for finding everything on the island. He was always a phonecall away when we needed him. The house was very accommodating for our family of 5. (PLENTY of space!) The beach is truly the best part of the house. IT is the prettiest beach we found during our week long stay. The house come with kayaks and paddleboard to explore the bay. We saw sea turtles every day! Hoopers Bay is a short drive from Georgetown making it a very convenient location.

We had the best family vacation of our entire lives!
The home easily accommodated our family group of 12. It had everything we needed, and we also rented two of their vehicles. The beach is the finest on the island in our opinion. With it being a private home/access and all, we had it nearly to ourselves. In George Town, a five minute drive, you can pick up whatever you need at the grocery store (they all close around 6:00pm) and there are a few fish fry shacks close by too. The home is a short ride from/to the airport. When you travel there, be prepared to rent their cars (or have them help with such rentals) as cab fares can add up quickly. And, take boat excursions to see the sand bars, and visit other islands. The most beautiful waters in the world await you. The hosts are 'perfect' and truly want you to have an amazing experience. Communication between the parties is clear; no hiccups, hassles, or surprises. The hosts helped/offered us with all our needs, etc. We would highly recommend them to any serious travelers. We look forward to having a repeat experience ourselves. The whole experience was just plain wonderful!
