These tropical cottages dotted along a pink sand beach are truly magical. Each villa is both contemporary, retro, and designed in shades of sea blue and sand, accented by natural fibers, warm woods, and woven organic textures.

Dating back to 1800, this classic plantation-style boutique hotel houses thirteen guest rooms, an award-winning wine cellar, and our personal favorite — a library complete with cozy cane chairs. It also overlooks the harbor in the heart of Dunmore Town, and is an easy five minute stroll to the pink sand beach with private beach chairs and umbrellas.

Even Ralph Lauren is amazed by the stunning interiors and incredible English architecture of Hibiscus Hill. Designed by India Hicks, daughter of famed British interior decorator, David Hicks, and her partner, David Flint Wood, the property boasts three accommodations; the Guest House, Cricket Pavilion, and King’s Retreat — each with its own aesthetic. Staying here is a true experience and if it fits your budget, you will not regret it.

What is Harbour Island’s preferred mode of travel? Golf carts. If biking sounds too much, or you want to go a little further than your legs allow, rent your own cart from Michael’s Cycles and enjoy this playful breezy way to explore the island.

Biking anywhere is always a good idea but especially on sleepy Harbour Island. Check out Michael’s Cycles if you’re in need of some wheels.

Although I grew up in a beach community, there is nothing that’s as special as Pink Sands. If you’re looking for a breathtaking beach day that you won’t forget — you will need to rent a boat to visit. As above, you can also find boats at Michael’s Cycles.

Basically, everything on Harbour Island is a relaxing and healing experience that’s good for the soul. But if you’re looking for some more traditional wellness events, check out Dunmore Realty’s Harbour Island info for yoga classes and other events.
