Frequently Asked Questions

Before You Arrive

Q: How does your concierge service work?
A: Once you’ve booked, our concierge team reaches out to help personalize your stay—stocking groceries, arranging excursions, private chef or massage services, and addressing any special requests.

Q: Is the property remote to reach?
A: Yes—remoteness is part of the charm. Barrier Island House is on Stocking Island and reachable only by boat, but we make it effortless: fly into Exuma (GGT), then taxi to the Peace & Plenty dock, where our boat captain will whisk you across in 10 minutes. This exclusive journey sets the tone for the escape to come.
