From world-famous resort-lined beachfronts to back-of-beyond cays that summon to mind just about anybody’s vision of a Caribbean paradise, the Bahamas sing quite the siren call, needless to say. And their whitesand strands, reef- and seagrass-floored waters, and smoldering sunsets are yours to savor with a 100 Collection vacation home, thanks to our local partner The Good Life Bahamas.
Below, explore three standout oceanfront rentals in the Bahamas that could be your very own ticket to paradise via this unbeatable partnership!

The dazzling seascapes of Great Exuma will be in full seduction mode throughout your stay at Surf House, a spectacular vacation spread in Hartswell, right on the doorstep of Moriah Harbour Cay National Park. It is, indeed, the play of light (including moonlight!) upon the aquamarine lagoon that helps to set the rhythm of Surf House, plus the sway of the lush green vegetation that nestles this gorgeous Bahamian home.
Along with a private pool, you’ll also enjoy private beach access to ensure whenever-you-want-it communion with warm, lapping waters, plush sand, and the kiss of the sea breeze. And kayaking and paddleboarding among seagrass beds and mangrove channels rich with marine wildlife are readymade activities for Surf House guests.
But the appeal of this place isn’t, by any means, all about the outside: Indeed, the plentiful windows bring the outside into the bright, airy interior. Here you’ll find a lavishly outfitted kitchen—complete with a stove, grill, oven, microwave, dishwasher, refrigerator, and toaster—and four bedrooms, all equipped with air-conditioning. There’s wireless broadband Internet available, plus a TV.

Another one of the best villas in the Bahamas for group escapes, Ballymena provides a sumptuous home base in Hartswell on Moriah Harbour. From the pleasures of a fully equipped kitchen—and the services of a private chef available, if so desired!—to the outdoor jacuzzi and gazebo with their straight-out-of-a-dream Caribbean sightlines, this beachfront vacation home provides all the ingredients for an idyll in paradise.
The bathrooms boast such amenities as bathtubs and hairdryers, while the liquid skyline looks absolutely marvelous from the front-row seats offered by the private infinity-edge pool. And your Ballymena accommodations put you a hop, skip, and a jump from both Georgetown and Moriah Harbour Cay National Park, with kayaks and paddleboards ready and waiting to go.

Fall under the spell of Grand Exuma’s Moirah Harbour at Sueno de Mar, which composes a beautiful medley of turquoise, deep blue, and green with its sea sightlines, sparkling private pool, and luxuriant landscaping. The ambience and views are out of this world, but you’ll also appreciate the practical creature comforts, from the ready-for-anything kitchen to the snazzy laundry area, anchored by a brand-new Whirlpool washer/dryer unit.
The master bedroom serves up masterly views (not to mention a king bed and an ensuite bathroom with a his-and-her’s sink), while the wooden deck outside encompasses not only that private pool but also a handy-dandy barbecue grill for Caribbean cookouts. What more could you ask for?
Here at The 100 Collection, we’re honored to join forces with The Good Life Bahamas to give our guests top-shelf getaways to this legendary corner of the Caribbean.
Good Life co-founder Peter Whitehead grew up in the Bahamas and learned the fundamentals of West Indies hospitality from an early age, and it certainly shows in his astutely hand-picked inventory of vacation homes and villas—and in the many enhancements our clients can partake of on a trip, from private chefs and massages to guided boat tours and other curated activities.
