Greenbank Guest House

Frommer's Review

This guesthouse stands at the water's edge in Salt Kettle, just across the bay -- a 10-minute ferry ride -- from the City of Hamilton. It's an old home (the oldest section dates from the 1700s), hidden under pine and palm trees, with shady lawns and flower gardens. The manager welcomes guests in an antiques-filled drawing room. The atmosphere is relaxed, and the service by the Ashton family is personal.

Greenbank offers accommodations with private entrances and kitchens in waterside and garden-view cottages. Rooms vary in size and shape, but most are small, with small bathrooms as well, each with a shower unit. The furnishings are rather plain but comfortable. The four units in the main house afford less privacy than the cottages. The guesthouse has a private dock for swimming; the charter operation on the property rents motorboats and sailboats. The nearest beach is Elbow Beach, a 15-minute taxi or moped ride away.
