Fodor's Expert Review A Stone's Throw Away

Featuring seaside comfort in fashionable surroundings, this hotel advertised as a bed-and-breakfast is actually a luxurious hideaway—the three-story colonial-style inn with wraparound verandas is perched on a limestone cliff overlooking the beach, 13 miles west of Nassau. The public rooms and guest rooms have the character of a century-old manor house with pickled-wood ceilings, pine plank floors, Oriental rugs, leather chairs, mahogany antiques, and a dining room that serves complimentary continental breakfast daily. You can read on the porch, walk to the beach, or relax by a small pool and waterfall.
