"On an island that’s less than two square miles with fewer than 2,000 people, new hotel openings are bound to cause a stir—as did Bahama House when it launched on Harbour Island in January, 2017. It’s the newest outpostfrom the folks at Eleven Experience, a vacation outfitter known for offering elegance after a full day of bespoke escapades. Spread across a restored colonial home built in 1800, an annex, and two authentic Bahamian cottages and enclosing a freshwater lap pool, handcrafted tiki bar, and hot tub area, Bahama House’s 11 suites have been appointed with eclectically curated furnishings, artwork, and wall coverings, eschewing island kitsch for beach-chic sumptuousness. Though the hotel leans toward softer adventures thansister properties in Colorado , Iceland , and the French Alps, the flip-flop–wearing “experience managers” are on hand to arrange snorkeling and bonefishing excursionsandpaddleboard or kayak outings.Or they'll simply provide a fully stocked Yeti cooler for a day of lounging on famous pink-sand beaches."
