Hope Town Harbour Lodge ReviewThis much-expanded former private home lies near Hope Town's beach and harbor. It was the home of Brigadier Thomas Robbins, a British army officer who constructed the original core as his retirement house in 1948. After hurricane damage from Floyd in 1999, the property lay dormant until its recent renovation. Hurricane-strength windows and doors were implemented, along with new furnishings. Possibly the best addition was the installation of private balconies in all the rooms in the main building, each opening onto a water view. Boardwalks and artful landscaping added other grace notes. In addition to the lodge rooms, there are six independent cottages, each with terra-cotta tile floors and French doors opening onto private decks, as well as six cabanas. The best way to stay here is to rent the luxurious century-old Butterfly House. Facilities: Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice.

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.
