For many romantics, the Bahamas are not their first choice of a destination. They picture the crowded, commercialized streets of Nassau and cringe. Unfortunately, many people fail to realize that the Bahamas' outer islands are among the most attractive and most romantic in the Caribbean. For over forty years, Pink Sands has graced one of these islands while developing a reputation for tranquility and romance.
Recently renovated, Pink Sands sits amid fifteen acres of lush, tropical gardens that border a magnificent three-mile stretch of pink-sand beach. Accommodations come in the form of two dozen luxury cottages. Complete with satellite TV and walk-in closets, the cottages also feature ceiling fans, wet bars, tiled baths, and private terraces with teak furniture. These well-appointed rooms make Pink Sands feel more like a private vacation home than a full-time resort.
Activities at Pink Sands have a definite aquatic theme. Of course you can enjoy the sun and surf on the beach or by the freshwater pool. Nearby you'll find scuba outfits and fishing charters. Of special note, Harbour Island offers some of the best bonefishing in the world and is an experience that an angler should not miss. If you tire of the sea, rent a bike or golf-cart (there are no car rentals on Harbour Island) and explore the island's beautiful interior.
For such a small resort, Pink Sands delivers food on a grand scale. Lunch can be had on the beach at the Blue Bar while breakfast and dinner are served at the Club House. Dinner at the Club House is a romantic's delight. You'll enjoy a fabulous four-course meal as you dine by candlelight in an alfresco garden setting.
