"Let me just say that the views from this lovely beach house can't be beat! Whether you're inside the house or out on the deck, the views are amazing! The beach itself is very secluded. We only saw 4 other people on the beach the entire week we were there. Very quiet and very relaxing which is what we were looking for. The house is very clean and everything you need is provided. Kitchen items, beach towels, beach chairs, umbrella etc. You will need to buy your own toilet paper, hand soap etc. The owner Barbi is very responsive to phone calls and emails. I had to call her once and email a few times and she responded right away. Now for the cons...keep in mind that these are my opinions only and may not reflect ypur opinions or preferences, and some are just things we weren't aware of prior to vacationing in the Bahamas which was our fault for not doing our homework ahead of time. We were not aware that they drive on the left side of the road which was a little scary at first but my husband got used to it pretty quickly. There are random speed bumps on the road which are difficult to see until you get right up on them so be careful. Everything is very expensive here and not every place takes credit cards so bring plenty of cash. The locals are very friendly and welcoming to visitors. We ate at 4 restaurants while visiting and here are my thoughts on those. 1648 was my favorite. Great views from the deck. The staff was amazing and so was the food. I ordered the shrimp and sausage"

"We LOVED everything! The only thing they could possibly improve on would be room darkening blinds in the bedroom. My husband slept great; I’m a light sleeper."

"Has everything needed for a relaxing and quiet getaway!"

"**Parkay at Sunset - A Perfect Escape!**This was our second stay at Parlay at Sunset, and it was every bit as amazing as the first. The house is perfectly situated with a beach right in the backyard, making it an ideal spot for snorkeling, critter hunting at night, or simply relaxing by the water. The sunsets here are nothing short of magical – the view of the water almost looks like liquid glass.The property is well-equipped with everything you need. The generator is a AWESOME feature, ensuring we never had to worry about power. The house was spotless, and Diana and Charles were incredibly responsive and helpful throughout our stay.It’s conveniently located near a large grocery store in Rock Sound, and a smaller one in Tarpum Bay, so stocking up on essentials is easy. Plus, the dock is a great spot for fresh fish—perfect for cooking up a meal in the fully stocked kitchen, which had everything we needed to cook at home.It’s just a short 30-minute drive to Pascal's, where you can enjoy a swim-up pool bar and a beautiful beach – we visited multiple times during our trip. And definitely don’t miss the stargazing at night – it’s truly mind-blowing!Before you leave, be sure to pick up a straw hat from Stevie in Tarpum Bay—it's a perfect souvenir.The South Side of Eleuthera has so much to offer, and this property is a perfect base to explore it all. Highly recommend! We will be booking again next summer! "

"The location was amazing. The house was centrally located to everything! The beach was so nice and peaceful. The house is a littler older but still clean. Overall 10/10 experience "

"One of the most beautiful sites and accomodations that anyone can ask for. The services were amazing and there was not one bad experience. The beach is stellar and the pool is magnificent. Absolutely amazing! "

"This was our first time on the island and this was the perfect location for my family. It is central to everything in the island and that beach…….it was perfection. My kids spent hours snorkeling all around Ten Bay. The house had everything we needed and the views were to die for. We will be back!!!!!!"

"This house has a ton of charm with a very casual feel to it. Small swimming pool was extremely nice for those days of sunning on the decks then cooling off. The Beach was very close with 3 min or less walk. The master King Bed was very comfortable and had its on walkout balcony deck with beautiful views. There was a 2nd bedroom with large bed and bunk above, which would be nice if you had kids. The pictures accurately illustrate the house. The house is very private, which we liked and was perfect for our stay. It was also well appointed with towels, beach gear, TP, trash bags, coffee maker, coffee filters, etc. Jethro “Host” was extremely kind and helpful & responsive with our inquiries, which gave us a peace of mind. We will be staying again. "

"We had the most beautiful week in Eleuthera. Property was as described. It was centrally located on the island. Plenty of space to spread out and relax. Loved seeing the turtles visit. Can’t wait to go back."
