Ciesta Sands is an exceptionally well-appointed and equipped home, with a magnificent view of the water. The owner's thoughtful attention to detail and her care in anticipating the needs of her guests made for a very comfortable and enjoyable stay. Christine (owner) was very easy to work with, and Esther (property manager) was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. The beach bar next door was being renovated during our stay, but would likely be a fun touch for folks seeking a nearby lunch option. The in-home meal prepared by Chef Glory was a fabulous treat.

Ciesta Sands is an outstanding pick for a private, semi-secluded island getaway. The home is exceptionally well-appointed, combining comfort with utility. Credit the host with thinking of everything. Whatever we needed was already in the house. It felt much more like a tasteful lived-in, cared-for home than a generic vacation rental. We're more accustomed to nice hotels/resorts when we travel, but this time we wanted something quieter, more isolated, fewer people (especially on the beach). This location delivers, without being so out of the way that it requires a second flight or boat ride to reach. Reasonable minds might debate the best beaches in the world, but after experiencing the Tropic of Cancer Beach, no one would exclude it from the conversation. The water is astonishing. The natural beauty at Ciesta Sands is absurd.Surprising highlight: there's a tiny beach shack next door where Sandy and sister Jackie make killer grilled chicken sandwiches, and sweet tropical cocktails. Thanks for the great week in paradise.

Classy home on the beach

The decor and design of the home made us feel like we were in the Hamptons. The home is beautiful, well appointed, clean, and perfectly located. The beach is beautiful, and accessing the islands the kayaks and paddleboards was a big highlight for all of us. Awesome stay, our favorite house in Exuma.

Just book it! Trust me. This home was exceptionally stunning. It was immaculately clean and stocked with everything you could possibly need. From beach chairs, pool floats, skim boards, bean bag toss, life jackets, kayaks and SUP boards, to 5 different ways to make coffee, every kitchen appliance, crazy comfortable beds, and so so much space. But the best was the view. We couldn’t stop staring. This was a perfect vacation for our two families. Thank you Ciesta Sands for the easy communication and incredible attention to detail. We’ll be back!

Ciesta Sands

A newer and well designed and decorated beachfront villa that suited our family of 7 adults very well. Tropic of Cancer beach is steps away, with beautiful white sand and aquamarine waters. Vistas are breathtaking. Takes a bit more effort to reach, but that effort is rewarded by a secluded beach and relative privacy (apart from the occasional limited noise or activity given the proximity of the nearby public beach access). A highly memorable stay.

AMAZING HOME

Our family of 4 and our best friends family of 6 went rented this house to celebrate both our 20 year anniversary! Logistically a little bit of a pain to get to, but once you get there all your traveling issues go away! The home was a magazine home and the beach/ocean was the best we been to and it was right out your door. We've been to some nice places, but this water color tops them all. If you are looking for a great place to relax and get away from the busyness of life....look no further!

Exceeded expectations - we want to come back!

Ciesta Sands was a beautiful house and property. The house was well laid out, comfortable, and high end. The property is very private on a quiet beach, with beautiful islands within kayak distance. The islands made the view from the house very unique and special. They had everything we needed, including double laundry, ice machine, and all the beach toys you could imagine. Bedding, towels, throw blankets were all super comfortable. The house manager was super attentive and helpful. Also walkable to a beach burger hut, so you don’t have to cook if you don’t want to!

We loved staying in this beautiful beach house! It was perfect for our family. We loved the pool area and beach to paddleboard and kayak. The house had every single thing we needed for the week. The owners have thought of everything. The pool floats, chairs, toys were such a great extra that we weren’t expecting. The kitchen is fully stocked, and we were able to comfortably make meals at the house each day. I would highly recommend this house to friends and family.
