Frommer's Review

A sophisticated little hideaway about 3km (2 miles) south of Hope Town, the Abaco Inn faces a lovely sandy beach on White Sound. Compared to its main rival, Club Soleil Resort, Abaco Inn is actually more of a resort. An informal barefoot elegance and a welcoming spirit prevail here on the narrowest section of Elbow Cay, between the crashing surf of the jagged eastern coast and the sheltered waters of White Sound and the Sea of Abaco to the west. From the cedar-capped gazebo, you can gaze out over the rocky tidal flats of the Atlantic. Excellent snorkeling is close.

The midsize accommodations are arranged in a crescent facing the beach. They're set amid palms and sea grapes, and each has its own hammock placed conveniently nearby for quiet afternoons of reading or sleeping. Each comfortable unit has a ceiling fan, a bathroom with a tub/shower, white-tile floors, sliding-glass doors, and traditional furniture.

A modern, rambling clubhouse with a fireplace is both the social center and the most appealing restaurant/bar on the island. Shuttle service is available from the airport. Boating and fishing can be arranged through the hotel.

Facilities:
Restaurant; bar; pool; bike rentals; babysitting; laundry service; nonsmoking rooms; rooms for those w/limited mobility
