Wonderful stay in Buttercup

The cottage was a no-frills very comfortable place for my husband, daughter and I. It was very clean and well laid out. Everything we needed was there. We loved coffee on the screen porch overlooking Elizabeth Harbor and afternoons at the beach across the street. Easy access to both the north and south ends of the island - both worth visiting.

Great Cottage!

We very much enjoyed our stay at Buttercup Cottage! It was perfect for two couples. The beach across the street is beautiful and the supplied beach chairs, towels and umbrellas were so nice. Monica was very responsive when we had a question or need. We especially enjoyed the porch for morning coffee and evening cocktails!

Awesome little cottage! Great location!

Minns cottages... just what they advertised they were. Stayed 10 days. Quaint, cozy and had everything we needed for an awesome first visit to Exuma! Location was awesome! Perfect to drive and explore the entire island. Wonderful little beach a few steps away...And we had it to ourselves every single day! Kitchen well stocked with what we needed for the breakfast and a few meals we cooked in. Ate out somewhere different every night! Owner is awesome and responsive. Thank you Monica for everything. We will be back! Exuma stole our hearts!

Special vacation get away.

This little home has it all, the best location, the best property manager and the best service. Monica went beyond the norm to make sure our stay was truly special. From arranging a very special birthday cake for my mom to making sure the home was well equipped at all times. Very relax, checking and checkout process, always giving priority to our family! This trip to the exuma and the Minns cottages is a new family tradition. See you all next year!
