Frommer's Review
This is essentially a resort complex for sportfishermen, with complete dockside services and 32 modern slips -- one of the country's finest places of its kind. The main building is a white-frame, waterfront Bahamian guesthouse, the Anchorage, where Michael Lerner, the noted fisherman, used to live. It's at the top of the hill, with a dining room and bar from where you can look out to the ocean. The midsize bedrooms contain double beds, wood-paneled walls, white furniture, and picture-window doors that lead to private balconies.
The Marlin Cottage, although much altered, was one of Hemingway's retreats in the 1930s. He used it as a main setting in Islands in the Stream. It has three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a large living room, and two porches.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
