Thatch Bay Cottage

The cottage is perched on a ridge overlooking the endless ocean water, stretching far into the horizon. The cottage is perfect for families who love swimming and relaxing on the 1,300 sq ft patio. Due to its southern exposure and 270 degree wrap around porch, staying at Thatch Bay Cottage allows you to view captivating sunrises and sunsets that fuse the water into the sky when the ocean's surface is glass.

First time to Exuma?
You’re in for a treat! There are so many things to experience in Exuma and the Cays - there is something for everyone. Our guests’ favourites include exploring the gorgeous beaches with crystal blue water, visiting the famous swimming pigs and iguana island, swimming with sharks, sea turtles or sting rays, snorkelling, diving, fishing, kayaking, golfing at a world-class course, enjoying a beach-side picnic, indulging in fresh local seafood, and so much more!

Exuma Exclusives Travel Guide:
Upon booking, all guests automatically receive our curated Exuma Exclusives Travel Guide to help you save time planning your dream vacation. This complimentary package is carefully crafted to answer (almost!) any question you may have around planning your trip, recommended activities, restaurants, or points of interests, cost expectations, and the island in general.

Customer Service:
By booking an Exuma Exclusives home, you can be confident you’ll receive the highest level of customer service before, during, and after your trip to Exuma. Our expert local property management teams can assist you with any aspects of your stay including, but not limited to: grocery delivery, chefs and local caterers, rental vehicles, excursions (such as visiting the swimming pigs!), babysitting services, fishing recommendations, and any other local recommendations or assistance you need. They have a wealth of knowledge about the island and are committed to ensuring you enjoy all Exuma has to offer - hassle free.

Important things to know when planning a trip to Exuma:
- Renting a car is highly recommended. Almost all of our guests rent cars for the duration of their stay and it is the best and easiest way to explore the island. Additionally, Exuma is unlike other islands - golf carts are not a typical form of transport on the main roads.
- Protect yourself from the unpredictable. We highly recommend purchasing travel insurance for your trip that protects against any unexpected travel disruptions or delays. We’d be happy to recommend specific providers.
- Thinking of a boat rental? Boat rentals on Exuma are typically daily rentals only (no overnights). Therefore, it may not be necessary to pick your house based on the presence of a dock. If you’re bringing your own boat and your property doesn’t have a dock, please identify your closest Marina (beginning of description).
- Plan ahead: Restaurant reservations are recommended for peak seasons, particularly for large groups!

Insurance:
We are committed to protecting our homes so that all future guests can enjoy them the same way you will, which is why we've partnered with “Superhog: Know Your Guest”, a leading vacation rental guest authenticator & damage insurance provider. Please note that prior to check-in, we will send you more information and ask you to input your details to activate this coverage.

Other Rules:
No parties. No exceeding guest count on property. Minimum 7-night stay over peak or holiday seasons and/or weekend to weekend bookings. Christmas (night of the 25th) and New Years Eve (night of the 31st) cannot be booked together, except for stays of 14 nights or longer. Instant bookings are subject to 24-hour review to ensure adherence to house rules. Note: A 1% non-refundable processing / administrative fee will be due for all cancellations. If rebooking to future dates, this fee will be waived.
