A Stone's Throw Away

$$, New Providence Island

User Rating: *** 2.9

Fodor's Review:

Featuring seaside comfort in fashionable surroundings, this "gourmet bed-and-breakfast" -- as the French and Belgian owners describe it -- is the latest luxury-boutique hideaway for celebrities. The three-story colonial-style inn with wraparound verandahs is perched on a limestone cliff overlooking the beach, 13 mi west of Nassau. The public rooms and guest rooms have the atmosphere of a century-old manor house with pickled wood ceilings, pine plank floors, oriental rugs, leather plantation chairs, mahogany antiques, and a dining room that serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Guests can read on the porch, walk to the beach, or relax by a small pool and waterfall.
