St. Francis Resort

Saint Francis Resort & Marina is a laid-back, family-run-style island retreat on Stocking Island in the Exuma chain of the Bahamas, a short water taxi ride from Great Exuma. The resort offers a rustic, unpretentious Caribbean experience for travelers seeking tranquility, natural beauty, and a close connection with Bahamian culture rather than luxury accommodations. Its setting includes white-sand beaches, waterfront views, and access to snorkeling reefs, blue holes, underwater caves, and other island adventures.

Accommodation options include king and double bungalows and a house boat, with features such as air conditioning, private bathrooms, refrigerators, coffee makers, and views of the surrounding waters. Guests can choose bed-and-breakfast, meal-plan, or all-inclusive options. The resort also operates a marina, with slips and mooring information for visiting boaters, and offers tours, including water taxi excursions. Kayaking and snorkeling are among the activities highlighted for exploring the local waters. Saint Francis Resort emphasizes friendly, personalized hospitality and a casual atmosphere, inviting guests to enjoy a peaceful, off-the-beaten-track stay immersed in the distinctive scenery and spirit of the Exumas.
