About this property

Charming get away. Just steps to the waterfront and 5 minute walk to the beach

Tarpum Bay is a warm friendly picturesque local Bahamian town, located on the Central/Southern part of the island of Eleuthera. From the house you can walk to everything you need, such as Food Stores, churches, restaurants, bars, beaches, docks to purchase fresh fish, and many historic sites. We recommend a rental car so that you can explore the many other towns, sites, and attractions on the island. A camera is highly recommended whenever you leave the house.
On The Rocks house is a fully furnished 3 bed 2 bath, living room, dining room fully equipped kitchen, breakfast nook, laundry room and dedicated office space. It is ideal for individuals wanting to work in a quiet area or get away from work, couples, honeymooner, families, divers, fisherman, explorers and guest just coming to the island for a special event. Good quality Internet, wifi and cable t.v are free. Guest have free access to property owned kayaks to explore the bay, and bar-b q grill to grill on the porch, backyard or on the rocks. Guest can also take a 3-5 minute walk to the beach for swimming or long beach walks and for physical fitness walk or jog around the settlement (approx 1.2 miles).

Weather conditions changes the ambience and features of the site often. It is not unusual to experience a perfectly calm, crystal clear sea in the morning and later in the evening have a raging sea with waves crashing into the rocks and sending salt spray over 50 feet into the air.

About the host

Hosted by Dennis carey

Host profile image
For many years it was my plan that after retirement I will return to my childhood home town to really enjoy 'island life' again. The ambience of a quiet, no traffic, walk anywhere, town is a dream place to live. The beautiful waterfront, beaches, friendly residents, and the experiences of nature is enjoyed an appreciated everyday.

Why they chose this property

On The Rocks is the site of my birthplace and I consider myself fortunate that the property has remained in our family for over 100 years. The site is an historic area for the town of Tarpum Bay and the older folks refer to it as the lighthouse. Why it is known as the lighthouse is a long story and I enjoy enlightening our guest on the history of the site and Tarpum Bay in General. For me it is a joy to sit on the rocks and experience all weather conditions such as remarkable sunsets, calm crystal clear water or the raging sea with waves splashing on the rocks. Some of the old homestead has been replaced over the years but the site still remains special to me.

What makes this property unique

Sunsets are like snowflakes – no two are the same. My favourite feature is to sit on the rocks and experience spectacular sunsets while enjoying the ocean breeze and taking far too many pictures of nature’s beauty. Whatever you can do on the beach you can do on the rocks, anytime of the day or night, such as relax in the lounge chairs, kayaking, snorkeling, grilling your favorite foods, trying your luck/skill in line fishing or just relaxing with family and friends while enjoying your favorite beverage. Except for the early morning roosters(chickens) the neighborhood is quiet and within walking distance to food stores, churches, docks, liquor stores and restaurants.
