INVITING TURQUOISE WATERS
Escape your day-to-day and find yourself in a world of pink sand beaches, pastel-painted houses and inviting turquoise waters.
With just 11 rooms under its roof, Bahama House feels more like a stylish friend’s beach retreat, complete with palm-shaded terraces, a beautiful living room and stunning blue lap pool.
Originally built in 1800, the blush-coloured hotel enjoys a superb setting on the ‘harbour’ side of Harbour Island, which has quietly become known as the ‘crown jewel’ of the Caribbean. Rooms are elegantly modern yet exude old-world charm from their vintage rattan furniture, canopied beds and plantation-style shutters.
You won’t have to go far to find buzzing restaurants and live music spots where you can spend evenings soaking up the local culture. The island has a laidback vibe, but if you feel like injecting a bit of adventure into your stay, guides are ready to escort you on scuba diving, snorkelling and cliff jumping adventures. Keen anglers are even invited on deep-sea fishing excursions aboard the hotel’s 35-foot Scorpion RIB boat.

The service we received from The Ultimate Travel Company was second to none. Tania took the time to understand exactly what we wanted and helped us explore every option clearly and thoroughly. Her first-hand knowledge of Kenya and safaris made a real difference – she explained everything brilliantly. The thoughtful extras, like the travel wallet and documents, were such a lovely touch – especially for someone who loves to travel well-organised! Thank you so much. We’ll definitely be back for future adventures.
