Fowl Cay

Fowl Cay Resort is the ultimate destination for those who want the luxury of a private island with the independence of a sea captain. Its defining feature is that every villa includes a 17-foot or 18-foot powerboat with unlimited fuel, allowing guests to explore the 365 cays of the Exumas at their own pace. The resort balances a "casual-chic" atmosphere with high-end service; you can choose to have a private picnic on a deserted sandbar or dine at the social Hill House restaurant. It is a destination where "all-inclusive" truly means everything—from the top-shelf liquor in your villa’s pantry to the professional fishing gear used to catch your dinner.

Accommodations & Design The island features six freestanding villas dotted along its eastern perimeter, designed with a blend of colonial Bahamian and modern tropical styles.

The Villas: Bluemoon & Sweetwater (3-bed), Starlight & Seabreeze (2-bed "treehouse" style), Birdcage (2-bed with private pool), and Lindon (1-bed honeymoon retreat).

The Primary Suite: In the multi-bedroom villas, the primary suites are typically located on upper levels with French doors opening to private balconies and en-suite bathrooms with panoramic ocean views.

Design: Bright, airy interiors with local stone fireplaces (decorative), fully equipped kitchens, and spacious terraces equipped with hammocks and loungers.

Amenities & Inclusions The Fowl Cay experience is centered on the water and the "unpretentious luxury" of the Hill House:

The Powerboat: Each villa’s boat is equipped with a GPS, cooler, and life jackets. A thorough orientation is provided upon arrival.

Gastronomy: All meals are included. The Hill House serves fresh local seafood and features a 24-hour open bar, a pool table, and a dartboard.

Recreation: A freshwater pool at the Hill House, a floodlit tennis court, a fitness room, and unlimited use of kayaks, Hobie Cats, and paddleboards.

Marine Gear: A "double closet" full of high-end snorkeling and fishing equipment for all ages.

How Private Is This Island? Privacy at Fowl Cay is a blend of seclusion and security. With only six villas spread across 50 acres, you are rarely in sight of other guests. Access is restricted to resort guests, and the island’s location—1.25 miles from the nearest airstrip—ensures a secure, water-locked environment. For high-profile groups, the Full Island Buyout provides a private kingdom where the staff, the fleet of boats, and the entire 50-acre island are dedicated solely to your party. It is a secure, gated-style wilderness where the "Swimming Pigs" are your only neighbors.
