Hawk's Nest Resort and Marina

Frommer's Review

This remote getaway lies on the southwestern side of Cat Island, fronting a long beach and containing its own runway for charter flights and private planes, plus a 28-slip full-service marina attracting yachters. This intimate resort is set near the village of Devil's Point, lying some 16km (10 miles) west of Columbus Point close to the ruins of two once-flourishing but now-abandoned plantations, Richman Hill and Newfield. Bedrooms, with either two queen-size beds or a king-size bed, are well furnished and brightly decorated, each with a shower unit. Each room features a patio for those late-afternoon toddies overlooking the sunset. If you bring the family, you may want to look at the two-bedroom house on the beach, separate from the other structures. The clubhouse, the rooms, and the main house are spacious and inviting.

They serve full breakfasts (cooked to order), sandwiches for lunch, and a buffet-style dinner, with the unannounced fare changing nightly. A one-tank dive costs $60 (£32), a two-tank dive $80 (£42).
