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. A few steps from the beach cottages, an oceanfront restaurant serves the best food on the island. Dishes blend French, Italian, and Caribbean cuisines, incorporating island-grown fresh produce along with fresh fish and seafood from local waters. This is the most eco-sensitive resort in the southern Bahamas; it's powered by alternative energy, so the sun and wind keep it running. The location is halfway between Stella Maris and Deadman's Cay.

Facilities:
Restaurant; bar; bikes; fishing; kayaking; reef fishing; saltwater fly-fishing; snorkeling; island tours; babysitting

About Our System

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.
