Chez Pierre

Frommer's Review

Just south of the Tropic of Cancer, Montreal expats Pierre and Anne Laurence found their little bit of heaven on 3.2 hectares (8 acres) of land opening onto a wide crescent beach. Here they built and attractively furnished a cluster of bungalows overlooking the sea, each with a screened-in porch. All the units come with private bathrooms with showers. This is the most eco-sensitive resort in the Southern Bahamas, as Chez Pierre is powered by alternative energy; the sun and the wind keep it running.

A few steps from the beach cottages, an oceanfront restaurant serves the best food on the island. Dishes blend French, Italian, and Caribbean cuisines, using island-grown fresh produce along with fresh fish and seafood from local waters. The location is halfway between Stella Maris and Deadman's Cay.
