Fodor's Review:

Built in 1875, this gloriously shaded property covers a third of a city block in Old Town. Peggy Mills, who bought it as a private estate in 1931, coiffed it with orchids, ponytail palms, and black bamboo. She added walks, fountains, and earthen pots imported from Cuba. After her death in 1971, the property was turned into a romantic inn that offers several types of accommodations, from standard rooms with garden and courtyard views to a two-bedroom carriage house suite. Decorated with Bahamian plantation-style furnishings, the quiet and elegant rooms are a luxurious tropical retreat. Most have private verandas. Rates include continental breakfast. Pros: luxurious bathrooms; secluded garden seating; free phone calls. Cons: hard-to-get reservations.
