About this property

The Salt House - The Perfect Beach Setting with Infinity Pool and Island Vibes

A stay with us will show you why The Salt House is the most desirable beach house in Exuma.

Perched above a private cove, you'll enjoy nearly 300 yards of white sand beach and turquoise water as far as the eye can see. The ocean's infinite shades of blue shift with the sunlight and will keep you mesmerized all day long.

Built in Bahamian architectural style featuring fine details, open living, and endless views of the Exuma Blue ocean. The villa accommodates 8 people and features a 3-bedroom Main House (sleeps 6) and a 1-bedroom Beachfront Cottage (sleeps 2), all with ensuite bathrooms.

The layout of The Salt House encourages socializing with family and friends while providing spaces for relaxation and seclusion. The greatroom offers vaulted ceilings and french doors that open oceanside to the pool deck and to the sunset porch on the front of the house. Relax in the cozy seating from Restoration Hardware in front of a 65" 4K Ultra Flatscreen TV. The greatroom flows to the dining area and kitchen. The kitchen has been purposefully laid out for an enjoyable cooking experience, while staying connected to conversations. It also features a large passthrough window to give you access to the outdoor entertaining area and a dreamy view of the ocean. All furniture in the home is either Restoration Hardware, Bungalow Home, or built by a local craftsman.

The Salt House features expansive outdoor living spaces. The oceanside centers around the heated infinity pool with its stunning view and swaying palm trees and tropical landscaping. The poolside beach bar was inspired by the Caribbean’s rustic rum bars and built using wood salvaged from a local shipwreck. It’s the perfect setting for conversations over an ice-cold Kalik or rum punch. An outdoor shower off the Beachfront Cottage makes for easy movement between the beach and pool or for showering under the sky or stars. Dining alfresco is the epitome of Caribbean living and you'll enjoy doing so on the locally crafted dining table on the covered porch as you taken in the endless views. A standup paddle board, 2-person ocean kayak, beach chairs, beach umbrellas, life jackets, sand toys, and a variety of board games and card games are provided.

Sustainability in travel is important to us. A Solar Power system with a battery backup was added December 2017 and expanded upon in December 2018 and March 2021. This supplies roughly 50% of the house’s electrical power and provides backup power for the main house bedroom air-conditioners, entire beachfront cottage, refrigerator, modem and wifi router and TVS, and select lights, among other areas. Other eco-friendly features of the home include local drought-resistant plants for landscaping, refillable glass water bottles, and energy efficient lighting throughout.

Come stay at The Salt House and soak up paradise like never before.

The Perfect Salt Beach House
Perfect, it is! The house layout is like no other. The bedrooms are spacious and not right beside the living and kitchen which makes it nice for a family with different bedtimes. The pool area and covered porch are the best for a day at the pool. You can be in the shade or the sun. Also enjoy lunch sitting around a huge table while watching others while the swim. The beach, there are no words to describe the private white sand beach. It is perfect for reading a book or laughing with your family while playing in the waves. The house has all your beach and pool toys you will need and more. Coming with your family or a few couples - it is just perfect. The house staff and chefs did awesome. I will be back!

Beautiful Property
This is a beautiful property in a beautiful location. The house is set up really nice and accommodated our family that included 5 adults and 1 child under 2. They had a great selection of ‘toys’ for adults and children. We paddled boarded, played bags and swam in the beautiful pool. Chef Anne came to the house and cooked for us one night. We had a great meal and she provided great service. So glad we did that. Great way to start our vacation! Most of the restaurants we ate at are in Georgetown, great food but 30 minutes from the house. Wish it could have been a little closer. We thoroughly enjoyed staying at this beautiful property!

About the host

Hosted by Rob Hall

Host profile image
After first visiting Exuma in 2010 over the Christmas and New Years holidays, we returned in 2103 to the place that captured our hearts and bought the beachfront lot on Love Beach in Little Exuma that would ultimately become The Salt House. We began designing the house with some sketches in the sand during a return trip in 2014 and eventually began construction in October of 2015. The Salt House was completed in September of 2016 and shortly there after, we hosted our first guests in mid-October. We have a passion for Exuma and share that with our guests and the Exuma community. See more on Instagram @thesalthouseexuma

Why they chose this property

Since October 2016, our guests have raved about the location, the design and furnishings, the amenities, and the experience we have created, leading to the house being booked out 12-18 months in the future. A stay with us will show you why The Salt House is the most desirable beach house in Exuma.

What makes this property unique

The view from The Salt House is truly unrivaled on the island and will have you asking yourself if it's real. The beach is a beautiful crescent and we always have good wide beach at low and high tides throughout the year, unlike many beach houses on Exuma that sometimes lose their beach. The styling and decor of the house is a dream setting, rounding out a one-of-a-kind experience that you get when you choose to vacation at The Salt House.
