Guest Reviews
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Nancy is lovely and helped us a lot to arrange the boat tours. The house is nice.
- Scott (10/5): Beautiful spot - Beautiful spot and housing and excellent caretaker. The only drawback was the outdoor cats here, and at the beaches because my wife has some health issues where she has to limit her exposure to the parasites that outdoor cats carry.
- laura (10/5): - Regatta Point è stupendo, incantevole. La proprietaria veramente molto gentile. Abbiamo trascorso 5 notti a Regatta Point e siamo stati benissimo, una bellissima vista da tutte le finestre della casa. Il mare in casa. E' stato sempre un piacere ritornare a Regatta dopo aver girovagato per l'isola. Consigliato.
- Jessica (8/5): Bahamas im Regatta - Detox von Smartphone und TV. Toller Blick aus dem Zimmer und der Veranda. Habe es sehr genossen
- Nicholas (10/5): A real taste of Exuma - Great host, magical location . In the heart of the main town but secluded on its own peninsular.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Super schöne Wohung im 1. Stock mit 2 Terrassen direkt am Wasser. Durch jedes Fenster ist Wasser zu sehen und besser kann man nicht aufstehen. Zudem ist die Dame, die dort wohnt und es verwaltet, extrem hilfsbereit und ruft sogar Taxen und Restaurants für einen an
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The room was just ok...but that's not what you're in the Exumas for :-) The location is great, within walking distance to groceries, and the water taxi to Stocking Island. Nancy was incredibly helpful, arranged taxis for us etc., anything we needed. Sugar Adventures picked us up right at Regatta Point, which was fabulous. The Exumas are absolutely gorgeous...you haven't really seen the Bahamas in all their splendor unless you get away from Nassau to the outer islands.
- Nick (10/5): Georgetown gem - Located right next to GeorgeTown with easy access to Stocking Island and the rest of the Exumas. We stayed a couple of nights over the Music and Heritage festival which was great to get our bearings and experience local bahamial life for the first time. Apartment was well appointed with everything you might need, cutely accessed by bridge from the main port. No A/C but not needed. Good beds and bedding. Perfect starting point to our holiday.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - The property has potential but needs updated and better maintained. It really needed a good cleaning from top to bottom! Not my worst stay but not worth the money!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very beautiful location in Exuma, right in the city center and a great host!
- Verified traveler (2/5): - I was told on the day of arrival that no room is available while I have my booking confirmation in hand. And then I was asked to book the only available hotel at the last minute with an additional $420 charge. Both Regatta Point and Expedia were refused to cover the additional cost so far.
- klaus (10/5): Traumurlaub - Unsere Wohnung ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen aber immer wieder. Das andere Gästehaus wurde gerade renoviert und steht nun im neuen Glanz da. Ebenso phantastisch ist das kleine aber feine grüne Paradies das Nancy, die Vermieterin, da geschaffen hat. Sie ist gern für ihre Gäste da und hilft wo sie kann.
- Sara (10/5): Splendido soggiorno - Bellissimo soggiorno in una location con una vista fantastica su Stocking Island, a due passi dal centro di George Town e dalla partenza dei taxi boat.
Appartamento molto bello con ampi spazi e sempre molto pulito!
La proprietaria e il suo staff sono stati sempre molto efficienti!
Grazie Nancy! Hai reso il nostro soggiorno indimenticabile!
- Olivier (8/5): Localisation exceptionnelle - Belle maison chargée d'histoire. Spacieux et confortable.
La propreté pourrait être meilleure, et avec un peu plus d'équipements (Climatisation, wifi), cet établissement deviendrait incontournable.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Excellent location on water - Beautiful location with a warm greeting from Nancy. I was initially worried about having no air with my teenage kids. The place was comfortable and we were able to make meals after boating each day in which the boat rental is a short walk with having the ability to pull the boat up was nice as well..
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Isolated spot with no wifi, making it hard to coordinate particularly as there is no reception to get help. Otherwise comfortable rooms. Not suitable for swimming really as appears advertised near beach.
- Katharina (8/5): Sofort wieder - Total ursprünglich, karibisch.
Der Standard ist natürlich auch dementsprechend, aber wenn man gerne die karibische Lebensweise kennenlernt ist es super dort. Haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Lage ist perfekt und man hat einen super Blick aufs Meer. Küche ist sehr gut ausgestattet, alles etwas älter aber total funktionstüchtig. Würden sofort wieder kommen:)
- Michael (2/5): They overbook the villas! - When we arrived they told us our villa was no longer available. We made a reservation 2 minths in advance, which had not been canceled through hotels.com. They simply overbook and do not care what happens to those who they turn away. Like most people, we travelled a long way to get to Exuma. Hotels.com gave us some cash credit but that was a small consolation - there was nothing else available to rent so we had to fly home. Buyer beware!!!
- Verified traveler (2/5): book at your own risk - Regatta Point did not honor our hotels.com reservation booked three weeks prior to our arrival. The owner said they were fully booked and refused to even look at our confirmation e-mail documenting our reservation.
- Chad (8/5): - Weather was a little off but was a nice place and enjoyed my visit
- steven (8/5): Cute Rooms and plenty of room for the family. - We liked the location and Nancy was very nice. It was a large 2 bedroom and was clean.
- Felipe (2/5): - Hotel overbooked our room and couldn't care less about where we would stay next.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Super schöne Hotel direkt am Meer - Sehr empfehlenswertes Hotel bzw Appartement, für alle die, die Ruhe und Entspannung suchen. Direkt am Wasser gelegen mit tollem Blick auf das blau-blaue Meer mit großer Küche usw. Sehr nette und interessante Gastgeber und super Lage, da man im fußläufiger Nähe zum kleinen George Town mit wenigen Läden ist und auch direkt am Regatta Point ist, wo die Wasdertaxis ablegen.
- Dustin (10/5): Weekend Getaway - Awesome location, right in downtown George Town. Close to the ferry and local restaurants/shops. Nancy and Jeanine were very friendly and pleasant to chat with. Thank you for having us.
- Amanda (10/5): Wonderful location. - We loved our three night stay here. It is right on the water, the view was stunning. It is in easy walking distance to everything in Georgetown (Peace and Plenty, groceries, water taxi to Stocking Island). We loved having a kitchen and the beds were very comfortable. Everyone was very helpful and accommodating. We can't wait to go back.
- des (8/5): Cozy hotel - We stayed here for a week and it was very comfortable and quaint but it's bare essentials so don't expect luxury. We were okay to walk to a beach (45 min) but you should rent a car if you want access to nicer beaches. It's close to a supermarket and liquor store.
- Boris (10/5): Exceeded all expectations - Booked the hotel last minute and what in for a nice surprise. What an incredible place! Huge room and very nicely decorated. The owner went out of her way to accommodate us. Very helpful staff. Will definitely come back again. Ohh, did I mention the location, location, location?
- Peggy (10/5): Perfect! - Regatta Point is amazing. The property is beautiful. Nancy, the owner is a treasure. She updated our room, just because the bigger one was available. How thoughtful! She made us feel at home and we will always think of her as family. We love this location and had a great time watching the Super Bowl with locals. We had a fantastic time and will definitely go back.
- Benjamin (10/5): The REAL Bahamas - Nancy was the kindest and most accommodating host. Her cats REALLY made the stay feel a - one evening during a fierce rain storm - one of the cats came into our room to stay and snuggled up with us on the bed - it truly felt like home as we were missing our fur-kids terribly. The room was spacious and very comfortable and included a kitchenette. The area was VERY peaceful and beautiful. Rough road coming in but that just added to it's charm. We wished we could have stayed longer! PERFECT!
- Verified traveler (2/5): Niemals wieder / Never Ever - Das Zimmer, die Küche und das Bad waren eine Zumutung, alles war dreckig, mit seltsamen Flecken überhäuft. Da es keine Klimaanlage hatte, hatten wir 2 Ventilatoren, die voller (5mm) mit Fliegen und sonstigen Dreck überhäuft waren. Das Wasser im WC sowie in der Dusche war gelb. Der Kühlschrank sowie das Besteck war mit Essenresten überhäuft. Das beste: durch die verzogenen Türen und Fenster war es kein Problem für die Moskitos in das Zimmer zu gelangen, somit war auch Schluss mit dem schlafen. Wenn man nach dem Wifi fragt, kriegt man nur die Antwort, dass sie nicht weiss was das ist.
FAZIT: Mit einem Zelt wären wir besser dran gewesen.
- Chelsea (8/5): Nancy is a fabulous host! - Nancy is a fabulous host and was so helpful with helping us arrange all of our activities throughout the week. The location has amazing views, the rooms are spacious with a full kitchen, front and back decks to sit/layout, and is very quiet at night.
- Verified traveler (10/5): The best place to stay - Cannot say enough positive things about the host, the place, or the location. Helpful, went above and beyond. Will be staying here again on our next trip
- Jisun (8/5): - Hotel host was so nice and frendly and we had great stay at Regatta.
location is perfect. it is very close to george town,supermarket and port.
only bad things was No wifi and no air condition..
it was too hot and too many mosquitos.
I couldn't sleep well during i stay in Regatta point.
But we would like to stay again.
It is wonderful island for honeymoon.
- John (8/5): Great location. Beautiful views. - We were quite pleased with the accommodations. The only issue would be no wifi, tv or radio. Great to unplug, but would have been nice to check in at home, especially since we were there over Mothers Day. Also, might have been nice to check a weather report. Other than that, Nancy was very accommodating and made us feel like family. One other note. She does not accept credit cards for payment.
- Charles (8/5): Tranquility island - It was a fantastic location and well worth a visit.The place is rustic but adsolutely fasanatingThe owner Nancy is so nice.I could listen to her all day she is one of the most interesting persons I have met in my life. The only downside was we were charged more than we were informed what the price would be from hotels.com and it was bed only so there were no extras we could be charged for!!!!! Not sure where the quoted price comes from but will certainly be questioning if we use hotels.com again.
- Penny (10/5): - Regatta Point is an amazing little spot on the edge of George Town, right by the Harbour. It’s peaceful and secluded yet only a 5-10 minute walk into the centre of George Town. Nancy is a great host having a wealth of knowledge. The apartment we stayed in was well equipped and had a fantastic view of the sea. If you require wifi and tv this may not be the place for you as there isn’t any – perfect for us. It was lovely to sit on the deck or even in the apartment and watch the boats going by or to do a bit of turtle spotting. Make sure you take a good book and perhaps a few games. We would definitely recommend the 4 cays trip. Its expensive and a long day, especially with young children, but it’s a fantastic trip and for all of us our favourite activity during our holiday to Florida and the Bahamas. You may want to budget for car or boat hire to see some other beaches or for water taxis ($12pp return) over to Stocking island. The beaches on Stocking Island are beautiful and there is a bar called the Chat and Chill which also serves food. Wild sting rays will swim in for the scraps from the Conch Salad bar, which you can feed them! Nancy recommended the Peace and Plenty hotel in George Town on Thursday nights for a Bahamian BBQ. Delicious food, good value for money, a lovely setting and a local band playing. We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Exuma with a very relaxing stay at the wonderful Regatta Point.
- KL (2/5): The room we reserved was not available - The confirmation from expedia said no reason to call to confirm. Would highly recommend that you call the hotel directly to make sure the specific room you reserved will be available. The owner had given the only room that fit our needs to another party and we had to stay at another hotel. She also was not very apologetic or concerned that the room we reserved was not available.
- AJ (10/5): Delightful Guesthouse - We had very pleasant long weekend away from the bustle of the 21st century.
- Verified traveler (2/5): Nightmare - Owner does not play nice. Location in poor condition. Chris
- Kayla (10/5): Best way to relax in the Exumas! - Nancy was very accommodating upon arrival and she had a taxi sent to the airport to pick myself and my friend up. The room was exactly as I expected, and then some. The dive shop was literally around the corner along with the straw market, a couple restaurants, the grocery store, bank, etc. Everyone in the Exumas is always very friendly and pleasant to be around. The water taxi over to Chat & Chill aka Stocking Island, was within walking distance also, made the whole trip a relaxing one.
- Chrissy (10/5): Beautiful and relaxing. Great location and staff! - Nancy was so helpful and answered all of our (many) questions. Beautiful location with views of the water on both sides (front patio and backyard). Room was always clean and the kitchen had everything we needed. Walkable to restaurants, bars, a market for groceries, boat rentals, and water taxi. Perfect for what we were looking for - a romantic, quiet, beautiful place to stay and relax after long and busy days exploring the Exuma islands. 9 days of bliss!
- Les (10/5): Regatta Point Exceeded Expectations - Very comfortable place and quite spacious!
- Elizabeth (10/5): Our piece of heaven - We have been going to regatta point for 40 years.....it's our romantic "go to" place. We honeymooned there 15 yrs ago.
- Gail (10/5): Fabulous stay at Regatta Point! - Great way to spend New Year's Eve!
- Jennifer (10/5): We spent Christmas Eve and Day 2015 - Absolutely breathtaking views of Georgetown harbor! Nancy was a lovely hostess and even invited us to have Christmas dinner with her famy! Proximity to town is unbeatable, yet you are completely surrounded by water on four sides. You must be prepared to give up television and internet, but wireless is available at a nearby cafe. Charming and the real Exumas!
- Jules (10/5): Like living on the Prow of a Ship - Regatta Point has the perfect position jutting out into Elizabeth Harbour. The views from our room were beautiful from all points of view.
The room was spacious and full of the breeze off the sea. Beautifully and simply decorated, clean and functional, whether for a couple or a family.
We were also able to dock our boat 30 yards from our door!
The self catering kitchen was well fitted with a large, clean fridge, cooker and coffee maker. The market for supplies just a 10 minute walk away.
The owner, Nancy was so welcoming and knowledgeable.
It was all simply Beautiful.
- Kelsey (10/5): Wonderful place to stay while in Exuma! - Regatta Point is a lovely place to stay if you're visiting Exuma. We husband and I stopped here on our honeymoon and Nancy, our host, was very lovely and helpful. The location is very central and an easy $30 taxi ride from the airport. I highly recommend doing a day boat trip to the cays if you're coming into town (4 C's was wonderful).
A couple things to note if you're staying here while in Georgetown. If you get to "borrow" Nancy's boat it's actually a rental and you will be charged for it. That being said her rates are very reasonable and comparable to what you'd find nearby. Georgetown is also very small and many/most the shops/restaurants are closed by 5 or 6 at night and completely shut on Sundays. We were there in the slower June season so I'm not sure if this is different during the busier winter months.
Overall, I'd highly recommend staying at Regatta Point and you surely won't regret visiting the beautiful Exuma Island. The water is like nothing I've ever seen!
- Patrick (10/5): PERFECT! - I loved everything about it. Looks just like the picture displayed. Nancy has been so friendly and helpful. Will definitely come back!
- Cathryn (10/5): An absolute gem! - I throughly enjoyed my stay here, Nancy is the perfect host and it's close to everything! The views are amazing and you have everything you need. Almost all the rooms booked up by our second day there, but there was still a sense of privacy and remained pretty quite.
- Laurie (10/5): Amazing hospitality, cleanliness, and location - Regatta Point owner, Nancy, is very kind, warm, friendly, and helpful! My daughter and I arrived late and she ensured that we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The suite was very clean and spacious. The views from our 2 decks were spectacular... Ocean, bay, palm trees, sunsets. 5 to 10 minute walk into Georgetown. Short walk to water taxi to Stocking Island where you can pet wild sting rays. 4 Cs all day excursion was unbelievable! You can swim with sharks and pigs, snorkel through a cave, feed iguanas, swim at a sand bar, eat lunch on an island. I highly recommend Regatta Point and the Exumas!
