Peace & Plenty and Stocking Island

Peace & Plenty has three offerings: the Hotel in George Town with 35 rooms, the Island Cottages on Stocking Island with five cottages and private decks, and a Beach Club1. The cottages put you on Stocking Island, which has its own page: Stocking Island.

Exuma Beach Resort and Grand Isle

Exuma Beach Resort sits in George Town on Elizabeth Harbour5. Grand Isle Resort & Residences describes itself as a villa resort, at Rokers Point in George Town7. Both are on Great Exuma, so the Great Exuma and George Town guide applies to either one.

February Point

February Point is a private destination marina community on Great Exuma8.

Elsewhere in Exuma

Augusta Bay Bahamas is a beachfront property on Queen’s Highway in Exuma, with a pool, a restaurant and direct beach access9.

Staniel Cay

Staniel Cay is the second base, and the Staniel Cay guide covers the island itself. The one lodging operator in this guide on the island is Staniel Cay Yacht Club, which runs vacation rentals and a marina2. Its Waterfront Suites page lists suites on the waterfront6.

Sample rates at Staniel Cay Yacht Club

These are the rates its booking engine showed on 18 October 2026 for one night, Monday 19 October, with 2 adults3. Rates move by date and season, so run your own dates before you plan around a figure.
