Fodor's Expert Review Staniel Cay Yacht Club

Staniel Cay, Exuma, Bahamas Fodor's Choice

The Staniel Cay Yacht Club is nothing short of legendary, once drawing such luminaries as Malcolm Forbes and Robert Mitchum to its property. It's now a low-key getaway for yachties and escapists. The cotton candy–color cottages, perched on stilts along a rocky bank, have broad ocean vistas and dramatic sunsets, which you can treasure from a chaise lounge on your spacious private balcony. Take a tour of the cay in one of the club's golf carts. Meal plans are available.
