About this property

Sundowner house, beach front, one of the best views on the island. Sleeps 6.

Sundowner House sits with an unparalleled view of the beautiful light blue sea. You can watch fish swim past from the patio– ideally done at “sundowner” time! The house sits 35 ft. above the sea and 25 yd from it, with beach frontage and safe swimming. Hoopers Bay is one of the most beautiful on the island, and extremely quiet. The house has three bedrooms, 1 with a king bed, one with a queen, and the other with twin beds which can be moved together to make another king. There is a mooring in front of the house, marked by a polystyrene buoy. This was installed in August 2022, and is a helix anchor point. All living rooms have fans, air conditioning and a full unobstructed sea view. In response to comments made by one tenant, we took on board what was said, and decided to give Sundowner a facelift, and the following renovations were carried out . The kitchen units, sink and bar were all replaced, and a new refrigerator/freezer bought. For the dining area, a new dining table with 6 chairs provided. All cracked ceramic floor tiles in the house were replaced. The master bedroom has a newly tiled floor, a brand new king size bed in 2018, whilst it's shower room has been completely renovated. It now has a walk in shower. The end bedroom has been altered, the wooden door to the outside has been filled in. The patio has 4 new sunbeds.

Please note, the HOUSE IS ON THE BEACH. I am frustratingly unable to get removed the note that it is a "7 minute drive to the beach".

Two paths lead from the house, which join up then take you to some steps onto the beautiful beach.
Exuma is one to the best bone fishing areas in the world, and it has some of the clearest and cleanest seas to swim, snorkel or dive in. Facilities are available in George Town to do all these things, and also hiring boats. Brochures have been placed in the house to help you in this matter.
The house has satellite WIFI using Starlink so is very fast.
There is split A/C in all bedrooms, kitchen and lounge/diner area.
2 outdoor showers.

One good suggestion from a renter is to bring with you a few paper products that are light and easy to carry, such as trash bags, detergent pods, tin foil, baggies etc as they are very expensive to buy on the island. If you use the App "What3words" the driveway to the house is identified by "sunlit.fattens.mentioned"

The Sundowner was a beautiful place to stay while we explored Exuma, and the beach outside was a treat to enjoy at the beginning and especially end of the day. Plenty of space for our family, and a great location to easily explore the island.

Best location on Hoopers Bay

Stayed here 3 times. Can’t beat the location and size of the property. Slightly elevated so the views of Hoopers Bay are awesome. Steps away from one of the nicest beaches in Exuma. Easy to get to Georgetown, Smittys, or Prime market. Great house that we will book again.

We had a fantastic Monday through Friday stay at Sundowner. It is a perfect location and convenient to the airport and Georgetown. The beach and water are just steps away and the veranda has a gorgeous view for your morning coffee. There is an excellent blender for making your own cocktails and the convenience store is just down the street. Geoff’s recommendations in our welcome letter were spot on. We enjoyed a couple of great dinners at the Exuma Yacht Club which is about an 8 minute drive away. We will definitely be back!

Wonderful property and hosts. They sent us detailed information about the island and it was so helpful when we had their recommendations for renting a boat and other things to go see and do! Highly recommend. The beach was like our own private beach and they had plenty of floats and things to hang out in the water for hours with. From exploring many other beaches on the island and stocking island…the beach at the house was our favorite beach, next to the sandbar of course. :)

About the host

Hosted by Jenny Kettel

Host profile image
British, and my father first bought land on Exuma in 1964. He was formerly an RAF pilot and airline Captain, but passed away in 2020 aged 94! I inherited it and am now fully retired. The first house on Exuma Dad had built on Tar Bay, but we needed more protection from hurricanes so moved location to the current one in over 30nyesrs ago.

Why they chose this property

Bought the land and built the house in 1990, due to its stunning location. The width of the plot allowed me to have 3 bedrooms all with a sea view.

What makes this property unique

Stunning view where 10 islands can be seen.
Height above the sea, which gives fantastic sights into the sea, where passing fish can be seen.
Closeness to the main town, and the airport.
