Vacationed in Great Exuma for 12 days. Santanna's was on the "must-do" list! We rented a car and drove down to Little Exuma. It was about a 50 min drive from the Grand Isle. It was everything we hoped it would be and more. When we pulled in, Dee was siiting on a stool with a big smile on her... More

There is not enough to be said about Santanna`s! The people are amazing....the view is amazing...the food is out of this world!! If you want a real laid back island meal then this is the place to go, you can sit and chat for hours watching the waves come in. Do not miss this wonderful little place :)

This is almost into Little Exuma, but it's worth the trip. It has most beautiful scenery to view while you sit and eat. He runs a good show so be patient. When we went there was a bus of folks dropped off to eat, it's worth the wait!!!

Food is reliable and environment is delightful. Stop at Tropic of Cancer beach on the way. About 30 minutes east of Georgetown.

Santanna's is a great place for lunch. Locate on a small cliff over looking the ocean. Beautiful views. While we were their a couple got married. Definitely plan to have lunch at Santanna's if you are driving down to the south end of Exuma

We also had the ribs, which were really good as well. The rum punches- holy cow, watch yourself. I had 1, then ordered another and couldn't finish the 2nd... More

We have been to Exuma 3 times, and this was our first time trying Santana’s. We kept hearing about how great it was, but every time we tried to go there – they were closed. They are closed on Sundays and Mondays. We ordered the lobster dinner and the conch dinner. One lobster dinner is $22 and comes with two... More
