Excellent Dinner

“During our stay, I was blown away by the dinner experience. The calamari was cooked perfectly, and the warm rolls with a cheesy crust were simply to die for. The red snapper and mahi-mahi entrees, topped with fresh mango salsa, were some of the best meals we've enjoyed in Exuma. The attentive service made the whole evening even more good.” view full review

Very nice Ocean View

“I loved the large and comfortable room we stayed in. The ocean view was amazing, and the sound of the waves at night was incredibly calming. Having a refrigerator in the room was a nice touch for keeping drinks cool while enjoying the picturesque surroundings.” view full review

Relaxing Beach Access

“One of the best parts of our trip was the easy access to the beautiful beach just steps from our room. It felt like having a private paradise! We often took leisurely walks along the shore and enjoyed the tranquil environment, which was perfect for unwinding and soaking up the sun.” view full review

What an incredible experience we had at the St. Francis Resort! The setting is truly magical with breathtaking views, and the atmosphere is perfect for a family getaway. However, the service left much to be desired, particularly in the dining area, where we faced long waits and inconsistent quality. While the resort offers a relaxing environment, there are several areas in need of improvement, especially regarding room maintenance and staff attentiveness.
