Oceania Heights Villas is an exclusive, “gated community” on the natural unspoiled island paradise of Exuma Bahamas. Luxury Estate Hill Top Villas offer breathtaking, panoramic views of the Caribbean. Each Villa has its own private swimming pool, access to our private secluded beach, BBQ, full kitchen, flat screen TVs, and personal computers with high speed wireless internet. Oceania Heights’ friendly experienced staff is always available to assist in the many activities Exuma has to offer, including: golfing, snorkeling, sport fishing, diving, boating, tennis, exploring the Out Islands and more. Oceania Heights Villas Rentals are less than 10 minutes from the golf course, providing the ideal location to stay for a golf vacation in the privacy of your own luxury villa.

Accommodations:

For those not wishing to cook, a professional Gourmet Chef is available upon request or you can enjoy a fine-dining experience at the numerous restaurants Exuma has to offer.

Villa renters receive an Oceania Heights Club Card which entitles them to discounted rates at the world renowned Greg Norman Golf course, and Emerald Bay Four Seasons Resort, complete with Spa services and European Style Casino.

The Golf Course:

  • The course is nestled along the picturesque turquoise Exuma waters of Emerald Bay. The front nine takes you inland, with native vegetation and winds through a mangrove preserve which is complete with its own island green.
  • Review of Golf Course.

Rates:

  • From $1,140 per night for a three-bedroom villa to $2,640 per night for a five-bedroom house.

The Verdict: Oceania Heights is an exclusive resort on Great Exuma Island in the Bahamas. It’s expensive but, as always, you get what you pay for. And, if you’re splitting the rate several ways, it becomes very reasonable. Recommended.

How to get There:

The Islands of the Bahamas are served by two international airports: Nassau International Airport and Grand Bahama International Airport. These two airports are served by almost all of the US domestic airlines as well as airlines from Canada, the United Kingdom and Europe.

Travel to the Out Islands of the Bahamas is achieved via Bahamasair. Bahamasair offers regular scheduled service to the Abacos, Exumas, and most of the smaller inhabited islands.

Travel to the Abacos and The Exumas can also be achieved via the Fast Ferry from Potter’s Cay in Nassau – daily scheduled service is available. This is a great way to visit the Out Islands. I highly recommend it.

Rental cars are readily available at both international airports.

Look for the best airline and car rental deals with these two aggregators, which provide travelers with an up-to-date search tool to compare prices on airfares and car rentals of all ratings:

I truly hope that you enjoy your visit to the Bahamas as much as I always have.

And don’t forget: there are many other opportunities for great golf all over the world. Favorite locations include Scotland, Florida, the American Southwest, Bermuda, the Bahamas and many more. For up-to-date golf travel news and information, be sure to Subscribe to my weekly Newsletter.
