We loved the location, away from Nassau, but totally accessible via bus or taxi. Beaches close by, Love Beach, Jaws Beach, Johnston's Beach were great for us as we didn't fancy all the fuzz from the 100's of tourist coming off the cruise ships daily. John, Marcy and RJ were all great. They did everything to help and make our stay comfortable. The garden area was great to chill out and the rock pool was so nice to jump in any time of day or night. The terrace overlooking the beach was always clean and accessible, the breakfasts were simple, yet healthy and the Indian food served at the restaurant was great. I would definitely recommend staying there if you don't mind being away from the centre or for a short stopover.

The mattress in our room was extremely soft, and didn't suit our backs. I would suggest replacing. The owners seem to be replacing the existing furniture with a more modern style.....to be honest we much preferred the old furniture, it had character.

Out of the hustle and bustle of downtown but still close enough to drive there the staff was awesome the room was nice had a great view from the balconies the property was beautiful

I would say the stairs because there's tons of stairs but it's hard as it was to Lug all of our luggage up there and down there and every time you want to go somewhere you got to go up and down the stairs which we counted them and there's over a hundred on a good note my legs are in a lot better shape when I left than they were when I got there

Top location for a short stay near the airport (5min taxi ride for 25 Dollar). Very nice manager who upgraded us to a beautiful room during our second stay at the end of our trip. We also liked the Indian food in the evening. Breakfast is included, however there is only a very small breakfast selection.

If you are looking for a beautiful "Bahamian beach" near the hotel you will not find one by walking. There is a small beach few minutes away, however it will not meet your expectations if you are looking for a "paradise beach".

We liked the location of the property set in an elevated position with sea view. Consequently there are numerous steps so not suited to guests with young children or people with mobility issues. It’s a small hotel in a less tourist developed area of the island. It felt more personal staying here compared to a large resort. There are some good restaurants within walking distance. We had dinner at the property one evening. The chef prepared an Indian meal to our specific requests and it was delicious.

When you leave the hotel there isn’t a specific walk way to get to the local beaches or restaurants. You have to be very careful because the cars are going fast and there’s blind spots. Potentially dangerous.

The staff is lovely, as are the grounds. The pool is in a beautiful garden. The view of the ocean is superb, and the ocean is a five minute walk down the hill. The hotel restaurant serves outstanding, truly outstanding Indian dishes, eaten on a lovely deck looking out on the sea. This hotel feels like a secluded paradise. A pleasant place to stay.

It is the little things. The wifi is non-existent. The television in my room did not work. The shower head was stuck on a strange and sort of unpleasant setting.

The view is beautiful. The pool area was very pretty and quiet. The balconies attached to the rooms are very large. Overall it’s a charming hotel with historical charm. Lots of stairs though.

Did not seem accessible for those that have mobility difficulties. Not wheelchair friendly.

The stunning views.

Menu for dinner was all Indian food (not everyone wants to eat this) and menu didn’t change for the whole duration of my stay. Could do with an information pack on how to work the TV (which I struggled with) and detailing times for breakfast; dinner.

It’s in a quiet part of town- away from major tourist areas, but still very convenient for going out. We loved coming back to our little oasis with garden view. Our balcony was so lovely.

We could hear the people walking around, etc. ( 🫣) in the room above ours

Stayed here as a layover night en route to Andros, as close to Nassau international airport. We were upgraded to a bigger, better room due to Booking.com status. Hotel staff very friendly and helpful with luggage - especially as there are lots of steps from front door to reception and from lobby to rooms! Price Included a cold, continental-style breakfast which was decent. Printed sign in lobby suggested some hot options were available at extra cost, but no further info was on display; we didn't enquire further as the standard offering was sufficient for our needs that day. Hotel has recently started to offer food, we didn't eat here so can't comment either way. On our homeward journey we laid over at Baha Mar and wished we had stayed at A Stone's Throw Away again, instead.

Accessibility from front door to lobby, and from lobby to rooms, could be improved - not recommended for someone who has trouble with steps.

Beautiful little gem... over looking the coast. Property sit up on a cliff. Convenient walk to a couple restaurants and only about a mile away from the airport. Staff was accommodating and even ran us to the airport when a taxi was slow to respond. We had a garden court room but the view from the room was still spectacular.
