Monkey Sea House, Unit 1

Relax at this peaceful place to stay. We have recently purchased this duplex, formally known as "The Yellow House" here on Exuma. "Monkey Sea 1 & 2" is located on the Queens Highway, 5 minutes from the airport and 15 minutes to the Georgetown itself, in the area of Mount Thompson. There are 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms on the 1st floor and the kitchen and living area upstairs.

Welcome to our beach-y home, built by Bahamian's on "island time"! We are are fixing it up American Style, but if you know anything about Exuma, everything takes a a long time! We have made it as homey as we can, and with each trip over we are bringing over more and more items.

We love it here! The house is clean, across from the beach, and is, to us, just perfect for a Bahamian get-away.

There are 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths on the first floor. The "primary" has a king bed with an attached full bathroom, as well as, a washer/dryer. The second and third bedrooms both have queen beds. The bedrooms all have new mattresses and new linens. And the bathrooms have new towels, shampoo, conditioner, hand and bath soap.

Upstairs you'll find the kitchen, living area, and outdoor rooftop deck.
The kitchen has dishes, pots, pans, cooking utensils, coffee machine, microwave, blender, toaster, etc. And the deck has a table and chairs, as well as, two lounge chairs.

Monkey Sea 1 & 2 sits across the street from the Beach. Basically, you would walk out the front door, walk across the street and down onto the beach, all in all, about 100 feet. It is a very quiet beach meaning 99% of the time you will have the beach to yourself. You can walk a mile in one direction and miles in the other, and we would be surprised if you see more than a few people at any given time. The living area upstairs and the outdoor deck both have views of the beach, the sunrise, and the sunset.

We have been coming to the island for 7+ years and finally decided to buy property here. We can help plan your time, from car rentals (which we recommend) to grocery stores, to restaurants and excursions. We can even have everything pre-stocked for you as well!

Thank you!

Not as Expected

We stayed 6 nights with our children ages 8, 10 and 12. The location of the property is central and near the airport but found it to be a good distance to Georgetown for groceries, boat rental, water taxi, etc. The property was not very clean with piles that looked to be swept but just left. There were several pieces of silverware that had chunks of food left on them which made us feel we needed to wash everything. The AC unit in the primary bedroom didn't cool to a comfortable temperature. The shower valve in the front bathroom needs to be replaced as you could get hot or cold water but not warm. The front door lockset doesn't latch unless you slam the door. My daughter and wife ended up with bug bites on their legs after they slept in the back left bedroom. The property owner blamed us that we didn't shower before coming into the house. We always showered but after we came into the house. A guest in unit 2 brought up that he received many bug bites while sitting on the furniture. I can't say for certain the source of bites but seemed very coincidental. Basement windows are left partially open which allows bugs into the home?? Primary bed is hard. The owner stated that we should have shared our displeasure so they could fix things. When I am on vacation the last thing I want to think about is coordinating repairs, cleaning and being a complainer. These are all pretty obvious things the ownr has made a decision to not address. We have never experienced a property like this.
