DILLYCRAB BEACH HOUSE: POOL/GAMES ROOM: Pool Table/Table Tennis/StarLink/Solar


Centrally Located so you can dine, shop, and explore both ends of the island easily. There is Tim’s on the Bay bar and restaurant at the opposite end of the beach. Liquor store and gas station 5 minutes away and groceries 15 minutes.
From your house, enjoy the sunrise and Ocean view and easterly breezes. 2 MILES of silky WHITE SAND BEACH and the prettiest TURQUOISE WATER you will ever see. A mile out you have your own "PRIVATE ISLAND" to explore!!!
The Oceanside Tree House Deck set between 4 palm trees is a fantastic place to find sun and shade.. AND what a view from there! Your house has an unobstructed view of the ocean and is just steps away from the Treehouse deck and the stairs down to the beach protecting the sand dunes.
Enjoy your PRIVATE POOL for your morning dip or evening cocktails. A GARDEN OASIS curated with flowers and over 65 coconut palm trees will surround you bringing bird song and the sound of palm fronds rustling in the breeze.

CLEAN ENERGY: stored in the Airplane Hangar (our giant garage!)we have an 18KW Solar Power and Tesla Power Wall back up system means you not only will be able to enjoy a guilt free carbon neutral vacation, you also won’t be affected by the (often) blackouts that happen on Exuma. At Dillycrab the lights stay on, your beer stays cold and your ice never melts!!! We are the first rental guest House on the island that is committed to Carbon Neutral! The extra energy we make goes back into the GRID! We also have STARLINK WIFI so if you really have to answer an email while on vacation.. no worries!

Absolutely Brilliant!

We found Paradise in Exuma, and Dillycrab was it's name. Just perfect in every way, from it's wonderful location on a perfect beach to the fantastic spotlessly clean accomadation and the beautiful pool, it was heaven on earth for our family of 5 adults. Far exceeding all our expectations the house has everything you could ask for, and the games room was a real bonus! We were lucky enough to meet Michele and Howard the owners during our stay and they are as delightful as their house, no wonder there's such a great atmosphere here. Great Exuma is a very special place and Dillycrab makes a very special base to explore all it's treasures from, we'll be back and we can't wait! Helen and Mike

Paradise

Dilly Crab Beach House was amazing! Top notch rental with best location on a sandy beach. Deck with sun loungers offered a gentle breeze and a great place for cocktails. The pool was refreshing and loved the two birds that visited us. The upper porch was our morning place for breakfast as we planned the day’s activities. The host, Michele, provided excellent communications regarding restaurants, places to visit, boat tours and food/bakery options. We loved the full day boat tour and glass bottom kayaks. We also enjoyed the straw markets and trips to Stocking Island. A wonderful vacation with close friends that we will remember forever. Thanks for the memories!

Perfect Setting

The owners obviously take great pride in this home and have done a great job continually maintaining the property.The owners have thought of everything to make stays at Dilly Crab comfortable, enjoyable and convenient. All the beach/ocean/pool details are well thought out and covered... a beach cart for hauling all your necessities to the ocean, coolers, life jackets, ocean toys, towels, kayaks, boogie boards, paddles, pool toys, etc. You name it, they have it.The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need to prepare meals, as well as an outdoor grill and bar, ready to go.They even have a hot/cold water cooler and plenty of tumblers so you're not dealing with your kids' unfinished plastic water bottles all over the house :).Will definitely stay here next time we're heading to Exuma!

A slice of heaven

Loved our week at Dillycrab. It’s a very cool property bc it offers a lot to do. It’s not just a place to store your clothes. They have kyaks, snorkel gear, ping pong, and a pool table……and a pool! The property even comes with an interesting bird named Ralph who seemed to be there every day. It’s a 10 minute drive from the airport which was super convenient. The property manager/owner was easy to work with and even arranged for coconuts to be cut down for us to enjoy. Thank you Michele for a great week.

Spring break in paradise

Paradise! The Dillycrab House was perfect for our family of 5. Michele was the truly the best host and we loved getting to chat with her throughout the week. Her attention to details and thoughtfulness were recognized during our stay. Michele even picked up some local veggies from the farmer for us and dropped them at the house. The Dillycrab has everything you could possibly need for vacation - beach towels, chairs, coolers, kayaks, pool floats, etc. The private pool was perfect for relaxing and the turquoise water at the beach was breathtaking. Relaxing in the hammock down by the beach was also a treat for us too. We loved Exuma and our stay at the Dillycrab and will definitely be back! Thanks Michele and Howard for making our first trip to Exuma so memorable!

Perfect island getaway!

This beach house has it all! Stunning views, beautiful pool, lush landscaping, and well thought-through interiors. Just steps away from the sand and sea, we enjoyed coffee overlooking the waves and endless white sand each morning! Excellent location near the airport and well-positioned to access both ends of the island with ease. The kitchen is fully equipped and the downstairs game room is a teenagers dream! Additionally, everything you need for the perfect beach vacation is there - beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers and more. The home owner and property management team were wonderful! Highly recommend this property. FIVE STARS!

Only blue is that water!

As other have said, Dillycrab Ranch is the gem of Exuma, located on a pristine and private stretch of beach, convenient to airport, restaurants, gas station, and groceries. This was our first trip to the island, and Michele was a wealth of info, plus a guardian angel when our return flight was canceled overnight. I know our experience was enriched by her tips and kindness. The house itself is just the right size and equipped with more than you'd need, but the outdoor spaces are truly where you'll enjoy your time! Just a note that the main living space and 3 bedrooms are on a second floor level, allowing for awesome views of the pool and that blue, blue ocean, but meaning you have to navigate a short outside staircase with luggage or to come and go (small price to pay). There is no internal access to the ground level game room/4th bedroom (consideration with younger kids, but my young adults loved it). Thanks also to Desereen and Jonas for their help and hospitality at Dillycrab in making our stay so nice. We leave with warm memories and grateful hearts...until next time!

It was amazing! The house was beautiful, the water was refreshing and so close to the house. One of the people who manage the property, Jonas, was so quick to be helpful and even got us coconuts to try from the nearby trees. The pool was clean. The overlook balcony near the ocean was beautiful and had nice chairs. The hammock was a little torn but it still worked fine and makes sense with some of the crazy wind.

Family Fun

My husband and i made our first trip to Exuma in February and couldn’t wait to bring our adult kids back with us. Dillycrab was the PERFECT house for us! We loved feeling isolated from the rest of the world but also loved the location of being almost in the middle of the island. Michele is a master communicator and gave us so much information and answered all of our questions. She is a gem. The deck on the beach was by far our favorite part of the property. Even with it being July, there was shade and a wonderful breeze overlooking the gorgeous beach and water. Michele thinks of everything so you don’t have to. I highly recommend this property!

Perfect pristine beach. All cares and worries just disappear

This place is amazing! I have absolutely no complaints about this place. The house is right on a perfect beautiful beach with calm waters. The most beautiful blue waters I have ever seen in person. It rained a lot while we were there but that didn’t dampen our stay. The house within itself is a vacation. We still managed to have beach time everyday even with some rain.The house has every thing you need. Good pots and pans to cook with. Bakeware…everything. We ate out a lot but also cooked plenty. They have kayaks to use. The house is in a convenient location into town. The beds were comfortable to sleep on. The owner is the best I’ve ever experienced with communication. She was great at explaining everything we need to pack, things to do and what to expect for having a great trip. We celebrated my husband’s birthday and she surprised us with a birthday cake. I’m usually ready to come home from a beach vacation. Instead, I could have totally stayed longer…didn’t want to come home at all. We will definitely have to return. Thank you Michele for allowing us to enjoy your place. It’s perfect.

Charming Exuma hideaway

DillyCrab House was the ideal spot for my family to get reacquainted with beautiful Exuma. Michele and Howard, the hosts, have created a private paradise, on a very pretty beach on the north end of the island, only minutes from the airport. The house is absolutely charming and the second floor porch, living and bedroom layout was perfect for gazing at the gorgeous ocean, enjoying meals together and relaxing in very comfortable bedrooms. The master suite is spacious with a fabulous bathroom, the kitchen is stocked with everything you could possibly want, and the downstairs rec room is a huge bonus for watching tv and playing games. The pool is surrounded by a lush tropical garden and has a great grill and tiki bar setup. Michele and Howard are a lovely couple and have thought of very detail to make staying at Dillycrab House a wonderful experience! They were in residence in the guest house next door and we really enjoyed getting to know them and hearing about their plans for improving Dillycrab Ranch and their generous philanthropic work to improve the quality of life for the islanders. They are also happy to help you with loads of great recommendations and are very knowledgeable about everything from the best spots to eat to fishing guides.

Why they chose this property

From a blind date to a 30 year journey, Howard and I have survived many ups and downs. We are best friends and this has carried us through parenthood and life as entrepreneurs.
Having a Beach House in Exuma has been a dream come true! It took many years of hard work and still more hard work to come. We wanted to have a place where all of our kids and grandkids would be happy to play and create wonderful memories.

What makes this property unique

Dillycrab magic happened! The first time we were renting like you. I woke up to the sunrise spreading its glory over the ocean without even lifting my head off the pillow. With coffee in hand, I lay in the hammock on the porch and watched the ocean in every shade of blue and turquoise while little birds in the palm trees were singing away, a dove cooing in the nearby tree, the gentle warm salt air caressing my skin..I was in Love. I was in Paradise!
There are 65 palm trees that create an island oasis.( Love the sound of palm fronds rustling in the breeze.. and the oceans music from every room in the house.)
Right in front of the property is a beautiful island you can paddle out to, sailboats in the distance. It is like a picture book. I have travelled to a lot of Caribbean islands but I have never experienced such turquoise water and such white soft sand. I also have never experience what it is like to have a 2 mile Beach to wander and lucky to see another soul.. never hassled and feeling safe as a woman to walk alone....This made me fall deeper in love..
I can not even tell you about how much fun and family bonding time we have experience sipping cool drinks floating in the pool..I never thought before Exuma that that would become one of my favourite things to do! There is sun as well as shade from palms on the pool deck for all day pleasure. Dillycrab is wonderful and lots of spaces to spread out. There are fun spots and quiet spots and spots to feel alone with a good book and spots to play together.. it is like your own mini resort, lots to do or nothing to do.
As you can see we LOVE Dillycrab.
