(Cape Cod Bay is the only location on the East Coast where you can view the sun setting over the ocean). Play a fun game of corn hole in the spacious back yard. Enjoy a quiet and child safe neighborhood with access to nature trails only 50 feet away for a 15 minute walk to beautiful Grays Beach also know as Bass Hole or stroll along 6A (Old Kings Highway) and enjoy our historic village with outstanding cafes and restaurants. The beautiful bay beaches are only 15 minutes down the road too.

Well stocked to make entertaining a breeze and staying at home for home cooked meals a perfect alternative to eating out.

THE DINING AREA overlooks the peaceful marsh and distant bay and is open to the family room and the cozy fireplace sitting area.The large farm table comfortably accommodates a party of 8 along with 3 bar stools at the island. Large 4 panel sliding glass doors lead to the outdoor deck. There is also a desk for surfing the web or writing a postcard.

THE FAMILY ROOM has a slip covered sofa and two swivel rockers that are extremely comfortable to relax in after a fun-filled day. There is a 55'' flat screen television with Apple TV, DVD player, games, books and magazines, and an adjoining fireplace sitting area.

THE LARGE DECK has a round teak table with an umbrella & chairs. There is also a comfortable sofa and two oversized chairs with ottomans to thoroughly enjoy the outdoor space. Three steps down is the patio with a bistro table & chairs, two chaise loungers, and a large professional stainless grille for cooking while surrounded by nature and salt air breezes. A 100 lb propane tank is included to ensure that you never run out while cooking. The salt water hot tub is located next to the deck and fire pit to relax and rejuvenate after an adventurous day. The amazing sunsets & marsh view can be seen from either the kitchen, deck, hot tub, or backyard.

A PERFECT LOCATION IN A PERFECT SETTING
Nature trails are easily accessed only 50 ft away that lead to Grays Beach also known as Bass Hole. You can stroll the boardwalk that stretches 868 feet into a salt marsh over the bass river. Grays beach offers a playground, picnic area, boat launch, beach with lifeguards, and free parking. Here's what visitors are saying: http://www.tripadvisor.com/Attraction_Review-g41955-d208266-Reviews-Gray_s_Beach-Yarmouth_Port_Cape_Cod_Massachusetts.html.

Walk or bike to the neighborhood ice cream shop, village store, or playground only minutes away. You will be conveniently located with easy access to the pristine bay beaches of Dennis which are only a 15-minute drive down Rt. 6A. Bike, walk, or drive to Dennis pond which is 1 mile away and is one of Cape Cod's cleanest freshwater ponds. Enjoy kayaking, fishing, swimming, or just relaxing on the beach which has lifeguards on duty during the weekend. The neighborhood playground is a 10 minute walk away. The new rail trail bike trail extension is only a 3 minute drive away with free parking. You may bicycle on a paved surface for as far as 25.5 miles and stop along the way for a bite to eat at several eateries.

Visit downtown Hyannis, just 15 minutes away, where there is always something fun to do for any age. It boasts eclectic and fun museums, library, carousel, art galleries, boutiques, pubs, fine restaurants, nightclubs, ice cream parlors, coffeehouses, bookstores, harbor cruises, and the ferries to Nantucket and Martha's vineyard.
Experience the quieter side of cape cod. Scenic route 6A is chock full of antique shops and some of New England’s finest boutiques. The tree-lined winding road will bring you to many of the area’s finest restaurants while passing through some of America’s oldest villages.

“Landscapes, like beauty, may well be colored by the eye of the beholder, but steering along tree-shaded route 6a on a mild summer day, with blue inlets of cape cod bay on one side and white picket-fenced houses on the other, I’m tempted to conclude this may be the most appealing stretch of America I know.”
–Jonathan Kandell, Smithsonian Magazine, April 2005

Relax and Stay By The Bay…
I truly can’t say enough about the property, location, amenities and property manager. The beds are so comfortable all the guests slept great. The kitchen is more than well stocked. There was plenty of room for our group of 8 to enjoy each others company, both inside and out and, also retreat to our own space when ready for some peace and quiet. The neighborhood and the neighbors were so welcoming, it felt like we were home. The view, the yard, the wildlife, the sunsets made me wish we had more time there.

Lovely outside patio and lawn. So peaceful.
Fantastic week on the cape at this lovely property. The kitchen and living space, the patio and sprawling lawn were perfect for cocktails, dinners, and quiet reading in the morning. It was a lovely spot.

Amazing 9th summer girls' trip
We take a girls' trip every summer and this year it was to Cape Cod. The house was amazing and everything we needed and some. It seemed for us to be pretty centrally located for all the things we wanted to do. They had a lot of items (kayaks, bikes, beach chairs) to use. We really enjoyed the hot tub and fire pit in the evenings. Nance was very helpful. So many good memories were made.

Perfect Cape Getaway
This is the perfect place to have a family vacation. There is enough space for everyone, the beds are extremely comfortable (a rarity for Cape vacation houses!), and the view from the porch is to die for. The kitchen quality rivals any kitchen we've ever cooked in. We used the provided bikes and kayaks daily. Truly too many nice things to list. To top it all off, Nance is an amazing and attentive hostess. Just truly the best place to stay with a large group on the Cape.

All conveniences thought of
Every small nuance that a guest might want has been thought of with this property. When Nance says that she and her husband put a lot of thought into what rental properties they have loved the most over their 20 plus years renting on the Cape, she was not kidding. The house and property were impeccable with beautiful finishes and tons of conveniences. Her exceptional attention to detail was remarkable---even describing every beach on the Cape with sand consistency, shells, crowds, parking, handicap access, etc. After years of renting through VRBO, Sunset Bay Villa is one of my top 3. Thank you so very much for a wonderful and memorable stay!

Unclean and ill-prepared for our stay!
At first glance the house appeared clean, but the floors were sandy and the refrigerator freezer was VERY dirty and contained old and opened food packages. The pull-out sofa in the lower level where our daughters were supposed to sleep had what appeared to be droppings on the bed when we opened it. They were not able to sleep on it. The kitchen flatware and utensil drawers had to be cleaned before use. Our son had to clean the outdoor grille, as it was unsuitable for cooking. We knew in advance that the homeowner would stop by to pick up the recycling mid-week, but we didn't anticipate that she would stay in-and-around both properties for three hours. We found it very uncomfortable that she would come in and out of the house to address our cleaning concerns we had shared with her when asked, deliver clean towels which we already had plenty of, work in the yard, etc. All this attention to the property should have been given prior to our arrival, NOT during our rental stay. She moved around the house as if she had a right to be there. The homeowner's extended stay interfered with our plans for the afternoon, and I was very disturbed by that. Despite the fact that we told the homeowner in advance of our visit that we wouldn't be using the hot tub, a fact that she denies, she deducted a service charge from our security deposit. While the home and setting were lovely, we would not rent from her again.

Fantastic Cape Cod getaway!
We loved our time at Sunset Bay Villa! We are a group of six adults who have a tradition to spend New Year's week in a house somewhere in New England to eat, play games, and enjoy everyone's company. After much research, we decided on the Sunset Bay Villa and we couldn't have been happier. The bedrooms were spacious and well kept, we didn't have to share bathrooms, the kitchen was large and well-equipped, and the sunsets were beautiful. Because we were there in the winter, we didn't venture too far into town, but had the temperature been a few degrees warmer (and had we not been so cozy indoors) we easily could have walked around the main street and on the path to the beach. The owner, was incredibly accommodating throughout the entire process and helped make our stay as easy and fun as possible. She met us when we arrived and gave us a tour of the house, showing us where things were located, sharing tips on how to handle some of the quirks of the house, and answering any questions we had. She also gave us her cell number and told us to contact her if we needed anything (we didn't). The three hefty binders of menus, check out procedures, and other helpful details were proof that the owner does this a lot and knows what she's doing.
