There aren’t enough stars to express how wonderful “This Is It” truly is! We celebrated my 40th birthday with a wonderful group of 10 ladies, and it was the perfect choice. The home was beautiful, and the location was absolutely breathtaking.The property manager, Gail, went above and beyond to make our stay seamless. She helped us transport our bags from the dock to the house when we arrived and back to the dock when we departed. She was always available and quick to answer any questions we had.The home had everything we needed and was impeccably equipped—truly beyond perfect. I highly recommend “This Is It” to anyone looking for an unforgettable getaway. We’re already looking forward to returning sooner rather than later!

We had an absolutely incredible stay at the Luxury 5BR Beachfront Villa “This Is It” and honestly, the name fits perfectly—this place really is it.From the moment we arrived, everything felt seamless and high-end. The villa is stunning: spacious, beautifully designed, and perfectly positioned right on the beach with breathtaking ocean views. Waking up to the sound of the waves and stepping out onto the terrace each morning was unforgettable.The five bedrooms were all comfortable, spotless, and thoughtfully furnished, making it perfect for our family. The living spaces were open, airy, and ideal for relaxing together without ever feeling crowded.One of the biggest highlights was the free premium 6-seater golf cart. It made getting around effortless and actually added a fun, vacation-like vibe to every trip we took around the island. Super convenient and a fantastic bonus.Everything about the property felt premium and well-maintained, from the kitchen amenities to the outdoor spaces. The beachfront access was unbeatable—just steps from the sand.If you’re looking for a luxurious, relaxing, and unforgettable beachfront escape for a group or family, this villa is a top-tier choice. We’d absolutely stay here again.

Wonderful week in paradise

We had a great time. This was our 2nd trip to the island. The house has most everything you need- but they could use some new pots and pans. The master didn’t have a shower, which I found a little odd, but the kids enjoyed bath time in the large tub. We had a few issues and the manager (David) was very responsive and helpful. We did pick up an excessive amount of rusty nails on the side of the house… this seems like an accident waiting to happen. You can’t beat the view, private beach, and friendly locals. Spanish wells is a special place.

This really is It!!!

This was our 9th trip to Spanish Wells and this house was by far the best. A wonderful private location on the widest area of the beach with views from almost every room. The house was incredibly well equipped and spotlessly clean (which is not the case everywhere). The furniture is new, clean and extremely comfortable, as are all the beds. We will be back to our favorite island soon and I can assure you we will stay at “This is it” again!! Keith & Kelley H

This is, by far, the best house and location on the island. We had a large family with multiple small children so easy access to the beach, the outdoor seating areas and shower were a must have. This is our second time on Spanish Wells but our 7th summer in the Bahamas. The kitchen is lacking some basic items and pots and pans could use an upgrade but largely everything you need is there. It was also frustrating to not have a working vacuum as I was 24 weeks pregnant with a toddler who was tracking sand everywhere, there was a broom but we had to buy a dust pan. The hosts were responsive to messaging and flexible with our dates which was extremely helpful. We would absolutely rent this property again.

Best time at This Is It

We really enjoyed our stay at This Is It. The house was nicely accommodating for our family and friends. The sunsets and sunrises were amazing and we were fortunate to see the full moon rise on July 3, 2023. It was huge and beautiful. Our only complaint were the flies. They were very annoying.

A week’s Paradise

I and my three adult children and their spouses and my only grandchild had our first vacation together in many years. I had been to Spanish Wells before so I picked place. Everyone thought everything was perfect including the lodging which truly “was it”. There was not a single thing lacking for the entire time from pickup at the airport being arranged until drop off a week later. No details were spared. I have never stayed in a place before that was more conducive to guests enjoyment.
