Frommer's Review

Lodging at this laid-back place, 3km (2 miles) from the Congo Town airport, is like staying at a beachside ranch. The accommodations are set on 8km (5 miles) of beachfront on an island that contains 10,000 palm trees. The hotel is casual -- a place to get away from urban life and rest your jangled nerves on a lovely beach. Guests are treated like members of the family.

The rooms are large and comfortable, with well-laid-out bathrooms with adequate shelf space and shower stalls. All in all, it's a relaxed, tropical ambience.

Scattered over the palm-studded property are hammocks and a freshwater swimming pool. The dining room features Bahamian seafood, and outdoor steak barbecues and seafood buffets are sometimes held. South Bight marina is 2.5km (1 1/2 miles) away, serving as a yacht anchorage for anyone who arrives by boat. The hotel will also rent you a car or bike if you need one.

Facilities:
Restaurant; 2 bars; pool; Jacuzzi; car-rental desk; limited room service; nonsmoking rooms; rooms for those w/limited mobility
