Driftwood First Floor Condo at Hoopers Bay With Stunning Views
Driftwood Condos are in Exuma, one of the family islands in The Bahamas, with easy access from the US via Miami or Atlanta and Europe via USA or Bahamas Air direct flights from Nassau.
The 2 Driftwood Condos are stunningly located on the water's edge of Hooper’s Bay, Exuma, one of the most beautiful beaches in the Bahamas. With private steps down to the secluded, empty sands, cooling your feet in the shallow waters of the bay, this is as close to paradise as you can come. If this, first floor condo, is booked or you want our top floor consider the second floor condo at VRBO listing number 7962137.
Each Condo sleeps 4 people so you can either rent each Condo separately or rent both and have up to 8 guests. Located just a few minutes walk from the best food shop on island, a few minutes drive from the main settlement of Georgetown, and close to many restaurants and beach bars, your holiday here will be in your memories forever.
Driftwood Condos is right on the beach on the north side of the island, with its cooling breeze and magnificent turquoise waters where you can swim with the wild turtles, watch dolphins, snorkel in the crystal clear waters, or just soak up the sun on the beautiful beach.
The two Condos are one above the other and benefit from all modern amenities. They are identical; both with two bedrooms (with en-suite bathrooms) and open plan living room, dining area and full kitchen with breakfast bar. With panoramic windows leading onto a full width balcony you can soak up the spectacular view over a cold drink. The balconies on each Condo overlook the beautiful bay with its stunning sunrises and sunsets. Both Condos also share an outside deck. If you open the glass doors you can hear the beautiful and gentle sound of the waves. The beach is very safe for children and adults. Because the Condos at Driftwood are elevated and have a whole wall of glass doors you almost feel you are in a boat.
The second floor condo has two bedrooms and each has one queen bed; this first floor one, more suitable for guests with children, provides one queen bed in one bedroom and two twin beds in the other that can be converted into a king size bed.
The Condos are modern with hotel quality furniture and equipment. All rooms have air condition. The balconies on each condo have chairs and tables to relax by. The Condos offer luxury flexible accommodations for 2-4 people in each of the two Condos. This flexibility means you can rent either Condo for 2-4 people or both for up to 8 guests.
The Condos are clean and enjoyable and have all of the amenities needed. The bedroom closets have plenty of hangers and storage space for your personal needs. Each condo also has a safe for your valuables. Attached to the building there is a laundry room with a full size top load washer and dryer. Laundry soap is provided.
The kitchen has a full fridge/freezer, microwave, stovetop, counter top oven with convection and rotisserie, a complete set of cookware and small appliances (coffee maker, kettle, toaster, blender, food processor, waffle, pancake and sandwich maker). There is also an outdoor gas grill for your grilling needs.
When you arrive at Driftwood Condos you will find five gallons of filtered water in your cooler (which we refill as needed from our own reverse osmosis system), 2 rolls of toilet paper in each bathroom, one roll of paper towels, bathroom soap, dish soap, a new sponge, all purpose cleaner, windex, dishwasher soap, coffee filters, basic spices, plastic food wrap and aluminum foil. If you arrive on a Sunday or after 5:30pm please let us know if you would like us to pick up a few groceries and we are happy to do so if you send us a list. You can reimburse us when you arrive.
Hoopers Bay is one of the main reasons for staying at Driftwood Condos. It is pretty much everyone's idea of the "perfect beach". It is shallow, warm and very safe for swimming. You can run your fingers and toes through powder white sand, whilst drowsing in the shade of a tall coconut palm with a cold drink by your side. With few people around the half-mile long beach it is quiet and private. Just the place to unwind.
As a guest at Driftwood you have two kayaks for each Condo with life jackets provided and a paddleboard. There are also some floats and toys for children. Snorkeling is always a great way to spend an afternoon, looking for myriads of fish in the crystal clear waters or swimming with the wild turtles that live in the bay.
At Driftwood we have a very unique feature at the beach, which is our very own private space reserved for our guests. Under the beautiful coconut trees we have many different beach chairs, two hammocks and a table and chairs. If you would like to move the chairs closer to the ocean we have umbrellas that you can use for shade. In our beach room we have cushions that you can use on the chairs as well.
You will find everything you need for your stay in and around Georgetown. Grocery stores, a fantastic butcher shop walking distance from the Condos (Prime Island Meats), restaurants/bars, liquor stores, bank machines, gas station and you can purchase souvenirs at the Straw Market and other small stores in town.
There is a lot to do in this magic island including visiting the now famous swimming pigs on a day excursion. Exuma offers the perfect picture of the true Bahamas. It is stunningly beautiful. Nature has excelled herself here. The wild life in the sea, on land and in the air is staggering and the beaches are perfect. Exumians are warm and friendly and welcome visitors with open arms. Exuma also offers a laid-back life style with casual beach bars, no fancy restaurants or nightclubs, no fashion shops or boutiques. It simply offers you the chance to discover what simple life can really be about.
You can arrange to have a guide with a boat pick you up right at the Condos. Renting a boat on Georgetown (Minns) also allows access to all the beaches of Elizabeth Harbor and Stocking Island. Sight seeing, adventure tours (swim with the pigs, visit the iguanas, snorkel in underneath caves at Thunderball Grotto) and scuba diving trips can also be arranged.
After you book your vacation a detailed PDF document will be sent to you that will give you tips on what to bring, detailed directions to various important places and contact phone numbers to assist you in booking excursions. We will also be happy to answer any questions you might have so please do e-mail us. We are always available.
We look forward to meeting you soon Lidia Rodrigues and Eric Beutner

We cannot wait to stay here again! Every aspect is 10/10!Lidia and Eric met us when we arrived and walked through the house together. They're warm, welcoming, and thorough. They live right next door, and are available any time, should you need something. They picked up a few groceries we requested and had the condo stocked. This was so appreciated! I've never stayed in a condo that was so perfectly stocked. Kitchen had a blender, coffee pot, tea kettle, food storage containers, pots, pans, spices, utensils. They had a massive outdoor room full of water toys, floaties, kayaks, paddle boards, snorkel gear, etc. Extra bath towels and beach towels, cozy blankets, etc. Location is perfectly central and convenient - approximately 30-40min to either tip of the island. An easy 8min drive into Georgetown. Very easy drive from the airport as well. The view is unmatched!

We had an amazing time, Eric and Lydia are by far the bests hosts we have ever had. Full of information and always ready to get you where you need to go or do with the local inside scoop. Hoopers Bay is the prettiest least crowded beach in our opinion, despite the Turtles having left. The view of the bay, the private beach area, it is very centrally located to town and access to Stocking island. The condo is well stocked, you can hear the waves lapping at night, perfect for star gazing. We kayaked the bay as well. We will hopefully be back. :)

Simply the best
Our family stayed at this beautiful VRBO in Hoopers Bay over spring break at the end of April, and we would stay here again and again and again! It was absolutely perfect for our family of four — the size of the home was just right, with comfortable beds, laundry on-site, and literally everything you could possibly need for beach adventures: flippers, snorkel gear, a paddle board, kayak, tons of floats and tubes… you name it, it was there.The beach at Hoopers Bay is stunning — soft sand, calm waters, and just steps away. The location itself couldn’t have been better either — close to the grocery store, the center of town, and as an unexpected bonus, we were there during Regatta Week, which made it even more special! Definitely rent a car, it is worth it.What truly made this stay unforgettable, though, was the hospitality of Eric and Lidia. They are true angels — some of the kindest, most genuine people we’ve ever met. We arrived on Easter Sunday when most restaurants and stores were closed, and they invited us to a picnic at their home. Our kids especially connected with Eric, who took them to cut down coconuts, hosted a beach fire, and patiently answered our curious 8-year-old’s endless questions about island life.Their kindness, warmth, and the love they put into their home shines through in every detail. We left with full hearts and can’t wait to come back. If you’re considering Exuma, this is the place to stay!

Beautiful and relaxing stay at Driftwood
Wow— what a wonderful place to stay! Eric and his wife were great hosts and their condo was perfect for our trip to Exuma. The condo was in a beautiful and peaceful bay where the water was the most amazing shade of blue. The condo came perfectly equipped with everything we needed to cook and enjoy the beach. Close to town, the airport, and a food market. It was clean, well kept and Eric gave us lots of great recommendations to tour around the island. 10/10 would recommend and will definitely be back!

Driftwood Condos are in a great central location on the island, and the view of Hooper’s Bay is breathtaking. Lidia and Eric are such a sweet couple. They reached out prior to our trip to see if we had any questions. Once we arrived, they gave us a quick tour of the property.

Wonderful!
Driftwood Condos was beautiful. The view and access to Hooper's Bay is perfection. The condo was very clean and the air conditioning worked very well. WiFi was also very good. We've stayed in Exuma before and the WiFi at a different VRBO was weak. The condo is the perfect size for a family of 4. Kitchen was well stocked for cooking a few meals and packing lunches for your adventures. Eric and Lidia were so kind - when I got a low tire pressure light on the rental car, Eric used his air compressor to check pressure and air up all 4 tires. Condo is well stocked with floats, snorkel gear, chairs, paddleboard, kayaks - everything you need to enjoy the beach to the fullest. The only downside was we wish we had more time to enjoy!

Last minute lucky find!
We booked the lower level at Driftwood at the last minute (5 days before our trip!) because the place we originally booked had a roof leak. What luck!
The condo had everything we needed, and the beds were comfortable. (It’s nice not having a sore back every day, as often happens on vacation). If you’re a light sleeper, try to get the upper floor. The people above us weren’t loud, but they did walk heavily and got up at 5:30am every morning… we came home from vacation very relaxed but not exactly well-rested!
We spent a lot of time on the porch listening to the waves in the evenings, but bring your (really strong) bug spray! We enjoyed leaving the patio doors open for the cross-breeze and to listen to the waves at night, but ended up having to use the air conditioner more than we would have liked as there were some holes in some of the screens and the bugs found their way inside.
Most importantly, the condo is right on the beach with an amazing view. The clearest, bluest water we’ve ever seen. The public beach access is right beside the condo so some days the beach got a bit busy with people coming and going to see the turtles, but we almost always had the beach in front of the condo to ourselves. And we didn’t feel the need to check out any other beaches on the island because we had perfection at our back door. You know you have a good thing when people walking by ask you for the name of the place you’re staying at!
Eric and Lidia were great hosts. We had fresh papaya off their trees and they were there to answer any questions we had and suggest things to do on the island or just chat. They also picked us up a few groceries since we arrived on a Sunday.
Best vacation we’ve had in a long time and we look forward to returning to the Exumas and Driftwood condos again!
