Island-hopping is possible through Bahamas Ferries which runs catamarans to out islands including Eleuthera and Harbour Island from Potter’s Cay between the old and new Paradise Island bridges. Or visitors can travel as the locals do, on mailboats which leave for the out islands from Potter’s Cay or Prince George Wharf, but passage can run on “Bahamas time” (slowly) and cargo can include livestock.

Amenity highlights: Large rocks and small, sandy cove beaches, one 75 feet long and the other 25 feet, flank the hotel's dock over turquoise Atlantic waters.

Situated behind a whitewashed stone wall 10 feet above the ocean, the hotel's swimming pool has a shallow children's section and a deck with cushioned lounge chairs.

Insider tip: A thatched shelter on the end of the hotel's 100-foot dock provides a tranquil spot for enjoying sunsets, contemplating the ocean, and watching stars at night.
