Arrayed on an eight-acre gardened hillside facing Harbour Island’s three-mile beach of pale-pink sand, this petite resort offers open-air ease and stylish interpretations of colonial decor.
This Bahamas resort offers 39 guestrooms and suites (all non-smoking), refurbished in 2005. Shared or private balconies or ground-floor terraces provide garden or ocean views. White, tropical-weight comforters top the beds. Bathrooms feature L’Occitane en Provence toiletries. The decor is a contemporary adaptation of colonial style. Floors are wood or tile.
The Terrace Restaurant, located on the main-house veranda, presents sophisticated Bahamian and international cuisine, accompanied by ocean views. Renovated in 2005, the hotel’s lobby displays a Great House style inspired by the islands’ colonial era. Dark-wood floors and wainscoting, French doors, and wood-paddle ceiling fans complement overstuffed chairs and deep, banquette-style, high-back couches. That style extends into the library, which contains board games, a pool table, a big-screen TV, and book-filled shelves. Complimentary wireless Internet access is available in the lobby, which also contains a computer with high-speed Internet access (surcharge).
