Beautiful place with helpful staff.

We stayed at Highbourne twice this past week. The marina is great and the staff was over the top helpful. The beach areas and walking path are really nice. The restaurant (Xumas) was a bit of a disappointment. Food was just OK, very expensive and the mosquitos at dusk...oh my goodness the mosquitos...impossible to sit through it and finish the meal.

Always a Beautiful and Wonderful place to be... the fishing is off the chain, and the restaurant cooks our catch, "the best I've ever had" Captain!!

Excellent. Every single person was kind. It was a delightful experience from start to finish. Market is very expensive...BUT it is a remote island :)

Wow! Picturesque waters and Marina with a lovely restaurant, a small but extremely well stocked grocery store, and friendly and helpful staff. They also offer golf carts so you can tour the beautiful Island and take in the sugar white sand beaches. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Highborne Cay Marina.

Great facility. All the staff was friendly and great to work with. The general store had lots of provisions. Extremely well protected marina from N, E and S winds. Great restaurant, many beaches, free bikes to ride around the island and golf carts to rent. The entire island is well maintained, great place to stop.

Have been coming to Highbourne for 6 years. Always the high point of the trip. Tim and DeAndra are masters behind the bar and table service… Xuma restaraunt is a must… and dock hands are professional and genuinely helpful… The beach and cove with tiki bar allow for all to unwind. And if they are full in the marina… good holding on the leeward side.

We always stay here a few days going south then north. Highbourne feels like home. Kenny is always our dockhand and we consider him a friend now. He wouldn't even let me carry the trash to the bin. The facilities are pristine, the showers excellent and Xumas restaurant is charming and memorable. Garret is a star chef in the kitchen. The office staff are so welcoming too. Just go.

We just wrapped up an unforgettable sailing trip through the Exumas, and our stay at Highbourne Cay Marina was a true highlight. Thank you to all the staff that help make this an exceptional place. From the moment we approached the marina, the experience felt first-class. The facilities are exceptional. The marina is immaculately maintained, with clean docks, reliable power and water, and well-kept amenities throughout. The grounds are stunning, beautifully landscaped, quiet, and exactly what you hope for when arriving in the Exumas. What really sets Highbourne apart is the overall atmosphere. It strikes a perfect balance between upscale and relaxed. You feel like you're somewhere special, but never uncomfortable or out of place. I can tell you, we miss this place already. We’ll be returning for years to come. To add, the restaurant was excellent. Great food, solid service, and an ideal setting after a long day on the water. In fact, I think it was the best restaurant of the entire trip. Whether you're stopping in for a night or planning a longer stay, it’s a perfect place to recharge. Location-wise, this place is hard to beat. Highbourne is an ideal jumping-off point into the Exuma Cays Land & Sea Park and beyond, making it a strategic and enjoyable stop on any itinerary. We’ve sailed in a lot of places, and Highbourne Cay Marina stands out as one of the best-run and most enjoyable marinas we’ve experienced. Highly recommend. We’ll absolutely be back.

This is the nicest marina we’ve been to in the Bahamas. Well maintained for the most part. Several groomed beaches. Staff is very nice. Had problems with the power. Voltage was too high and some electronics, like Victron Multiplus would not connect. Pricey, but I nice marina.
