Roseanne and Michael (the owners) were AMAZING! From before I booked, to after I booked, while asking for recommendations in planning and the checkout process, it was all anyone could ask for. They will do whatever you need to make sure your stay is perfection. ##### Elisha H.

Looking on line I noticed that this wonderful 1 bdr cottage was available for a few days and jumped on it. I needed a Bahama break.So happy I did. The location is fabulous. Perfectly clear swimmable water, fantastic snorkeling, good restaurants in walking distance. Comes with kayaks and paddle boards and water toys. I was able to order groceries in advance and have them delivered for my arrival!The bed was super comfortable, Kitchen has everything you need. I felt very safe here and in George Town.The owners go out of their way to be accommodating. they are fantastic! Highly recommend this rental for solo or couple. ##### Lynette O.

We have stayed at the Hideaways property previously and really like the amenities. The cottages vary in terms of their comfort and supplies and Bella Vista is the absolute best. We really appreciated the chairs and umbrella and the stocked kitchen. The views are unbeatable - you can see the ocean from the bed. The owners have great communication in advance of arrival and made everything easy for us. We can't wait to go back to Bella Vista or the owners' other beachfront cottage. ##### Jenine B.

We visited a ton of places on the island and honesty when we come back we will come back to the same one. Thank you for your hospitality! ##### Veronika M.

Perfect location, beautiful property, wonderful hosts. Michael and Roseann answered all our questions promptly and reached out to us during our stay to make sure everything was going well. You couldn't ask for more personal service than that! Bella Vista was just so homey and inviting and had everything we needed or wanted. Location on the beach and the access to Hideaways amenities just added to the overall great experience. We have been to several Caribbean islands but this is probably our best vacation ever. Can't wait to return. ##### Monica B.

Prior to booking Bella Vista, I read the description and reviews and I'm happy to say BV is truly a gem. The unit is updated and fully stocked; the view from the unit is gorgeous and the location on Exuma is outstanding as well. Michael and Roseann are wonderful and really do treat you like family. They were extremely helpful before, during and even after our stay! They went above and beyond to make our first visit to Exuma a memorable one. We hope to come back to Bella Vista or Bella Vista Breeze for a future stay ##### Verified traveller Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michael P. 25 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### True Paradise We love Bella Vista and can’t wait to return! Michael and Roseann were the perfect hosts! They are so thoughtful, kind, reachable, and responsive. Michael and Roseann prepared us so well for our first trip to the Bahamas. We felt more like locals than tourists. The property photos are beautiful but being there takes beauty to a whole new level. Bella vista is pristine clean, updated, well organized, and mighty comfortable. The beaches and water were the best I’ve ever experienced. Our family is already looking forward to our next visit to Bella Vista! ##### Michael P.
