About this house rental
Make the most of your Bahamian getaway and stay at the colorful Beach Blanket! Owned by actress/model Jena Sims-Koepka, this contemporary 2,600 sq ft home has 4 bedrooms, 3 and a half bathrooms, and 3 outdoor seating areas. Perfect for families, small groups, or individuals looking to relax in spacious comfort, three of the bedrooms offer Queen-size beds, while the fourth room has two Twin-size beds. The Master bedroom is located on the main floor with an en-suite bath (shower only) and a sliding door leading to a porch. Upstairs is a second Master bedroom, which features a private balcony and an en-suite bath with double vanities and separate shower and bathtub. The additional upstairs bedrooms share another full bath that also has a separate shower and tub.
Beach Blanket is located on Sandy Lane, nicely landscaped and just a short walk from the sparking, turquoise waters lapping the shoreline at Jimmy Hill Beach. Enjoy the three-mile stretch of beach for sunbathing, snorkeling, and long, lazy walks. Paddle boards and other floating toys are available at the house for guests to enjoy. Prepare a delicious meal in the bright, well-equipped open kitchen, which features stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher and ice-maker. A separate wet bar with a mini fridge is located just off the kitchen—perfect for evening drinks! Gather in the living room with its ample array of comfortable seating and a nearby half-bathroom. There is also an outdoor gas grill for cooking in the fresh sea air. The house further offers a washer and dryer, vacuum cleaner, cleaning supplies, kitchen utensils and provisions (including spices and condiments), a coffee maker, and a toaster.
Exuma International Airport is just a few minutes from Beach Blanket, and George Town is only 15 minutes by car, making it easy to discover local shopping and dining. There’s lots to do on the beautiful island of Great Exuma, including fishing, snorkeling, scuba diving, kayaking, visiting the famous swimming pigs, and touring the Exuma Cays. As the island is only 37 miles long, you can explore by car all day at your leisure and be back in time for dinner. Take a water taxi across Elizabeth Harbor over to Stocking Island for lunch or drinks at the lively Chat ‘N’ Chill beach bar or sample a variety of local cuisine at the Fish Fry food shacks.

7 of us stayed at the Beach Blanket in May, 2026. The house was beautiful and had so many wonderful amenities. I do wish there were more beach chairs. They had 4 and we were a group of 7. We tried to rent additional chairs, but to no avail. We loved how the house was so centrally located to everything on the island. The availability of the rental car was a definite bonus. Onike was very helpful and answered all our questions promptly. The biggest negative was the beach access. Yes, it is a short walk TO the beach, but once there, you can’t reach it because of all the steep rocks. Lots of houses have been built since the pictures of the house have been taken and block any great view of the beach. This was a big deal to us so we probably wouldn’t rent this house again. You can drive to the beach, which isn’t far at all, but we wanted easy walking beach access from the house, which it isn’t. Overall, we had a fabulous stay and loved every moment of our trip. Highly recommend Exuma, the beauty of the water and deserted beaches is just magnificent!!

Our family of 6 just stayed at Beach Blanket and we LOVED it!! We are already planning a return visit. Onike was so helpful and responsive. Her guidance allowed us to be prepared for our week and anything we needed while we were there was met with a quick and friendly response.Ice Maker, Rental Car and Location stand out as well as the great home that Beach Blanket is. Exuma is gorgeous and rustic at the same time. Adopt island time and meet all of the smiles with smiles of your own. Everyone is so nice and welcoming on the island.Highly recommend the Exuma Watersports All-Day Tour (Worth the Money), Baymanhi Beach Club (Stocking Island), and Coco Plum Beach. B'Booky and B'Rabby's had some great cocktails and wine right in the middle of town as well.I could keep going, but you really should simply go and see for yourself.

We had the most incredible stay at The Beach Blanket House in Exuma! It was absolutely perfect for our group — two families traveling together — with plenty of space, comfort, and charm. The layout was ideal for both privacy and together time, and everything was so thoughtfully arranged and well-stocked.One of the best parts was how close we were to the ocean — just a short, easy walk away! The beach was stunning, peaceful, and never crowded, making it feel like our own little slice of paradise. We have visited the island many times and enjoyed being close to town! From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The house was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed to relax and enjoy Exuma to the fullest. We can’t recommend The Blanket House enough and would return in a heartbeat!
