Little Norman's Cay, Isla Privada De Exuma Cays

Set amid the extraordinary waters of the northern Exuma Cays and adjacent to the renowned Exuma Cays Land and Sea Park, Little Norman’s Cay is a fully functioning private-island estate created for privacy, effortless entertaining and generations of shared experiences.

The approximately 40-acre island features six secluded white-sand beaches, exceptionally clear turquoise waters and elevations reaching approximately 50 feet. An untouched tropical forest covers much of the landscape, with walking trails leading through indigenous vegetation to hidden beaches and dramatic viewpoints. Indigenous wildlife remains abundant, while the surrounding waters offer outstanding swimming, boating, fishing and diving.

From the main villa and expansive pool terrace, uninterrupted western views provide a spectacular setting for sunsets.

At the heart of the island is an architecturally distinctive villa inspired by the warmth and character of the American Southwest. Centered around a private courtyard, the residence combines generous interiors with extensive outdoor entertaining areas.

The 1,500-square-foot main living room features a piano. Two additional living areas include a billiards room and a games room with foosball. A private 16-seat cinema with an extensive film library can also be converted into a dance floor.

The 400-square-foot dining room is supported by a principal kitchen with rotisserie, a separate service kitchen and laundry facilities, allowing private chefs and household staff to operate discreetly.

A 3,500 square foot courtyard and patio space surrounds a central fountain. The 14-by-5-meter swimming pool overlooks the turquoise waters and is accompanied by an expansive deck with two built-in sun beds.

An outdoor culinary and entertaining area includes a wood-fired pizza oven, traditional fire barbecue, propane grill and dining for as many as 20 guests.

Little Norman’s Cay has an unusually strong operational story. The island’s solar-energy system provides a high degree of self-sufficiency, while dedicated staff accommodations and service facilities allow an experienced team to operate without intruding upon the privacy of owners and guests.

A private marina cut into the limestone provides protected access for center-console boats and island operations. Larger vessels may be accommodated at the nearby deep-water marina on Norman’s Cay.

Separate owner, guest and staff accommodations allow the Island to function comfortably during extended stays or when hosting larger groups. Together, the solar-power system, staff infrastructure, marina and extensive accommodations make Little Normans Cay a genuinely turnkey island.

Despite its secluded setting, is remarkably accessible from South Florida, Nassau and other international gateways.

Private aircraft may fly directly to neighboring Norman’s Cay, whose approximately 4,700-foot paved runway accommodates a range of private aircraft. Little Normans Cay is then reached by a five-minute boat transfer.

Guests may also arrive directly by seaplane. Subject to advance approval and arrangement with the appropriate Bahamian authorities.

This combination of nearby runway and customs access, private marina and seaplane capability allows owners and guests to travel from private aircraft to private beach with minimal interruption.

Little Normans Cay brings together the qualities most difficult to find in a private-island acquisition: meaningful acreage, significant elevation, six private beaches, preserved tropical forest, owner and guest accommodations, dedicated staff infrastructure, solar power, a protected marina and convenient aviation access.

More than an island residence, it is an established, operationally sophisticated and self-sustaining family domain in the Exuma Cays ready to become the setting for its next own
