Highly recommend staying with Rhonda and Steve. A rental car is pretty much necessary unless you are happy to stay put on the property and kayak to new areas (I might consider that for future trips). If you like nature, kayaking, gardens, and relaxing in a beautiful location - this is the ticket. I did accommodation only but next time I think I'd pay extra to have meals offered as their aren't many easy access restaurants nearby.

Best water sports adventure.
We enjoyed our winter vacation at Turttle Creek Inn.
It is a kayakers paradise.
We were talking different routes every day for 11 days and we just explored a small portion of the water ways. There are also some of the best beaches in the world some of them are only accessible by kayak or stand up paddle board.
Some of the beaches are within a few minutes drive. The Little Exuma is very secluded and quiet, and that was exactly what we wanted, get away from the city noise. The owners live on the property and they are very professional and accommodating. They also offer delicious home cooked meals, guided kayak tours and some car service if you don't want to rent a car. We came back home very happy and relaxed.
