More Info:
Hopetown is a quaint, unhurried, peaceful little settlement on Elbow Cay (pronounced "Key"). Hopetown is approximately 190 miles east of Palm Beach, Florida and about 90 miles from Nassau, Bahamas.Many of its pretty New England style houses date back to its founding in the 1780’s, and most of its current inhabitants can trace their descent from the original Loyalist families who came here at the time of the American Revolution.
The town offers grocery stores, a liquor store, shops, a historical museum, churches, a library, restaurants, a post office, a drug store, telephone service to the US, a dive shop, a straw shop, and charter fishing boats.
Abaco is a fisherman's paradise; Marlin, Sailfish, Grouper, Yellowtail and Bahama Lobster are readily caught with the assistance of the qualified charter captains of Hopetown. A 17' Boston Whaler or 18' Privateer are available for rent from a local marina.
Nearby Attractions:
The beautiful warmth of the subtropical sun keeps the temperatures in the 70’s most of the year and in the 80’s during the summer. The balmy climate provides wonderful opportunities for swimming, sailing, snorkeling, fishing, diving, beachcombing, and shell hunting.
Amenities:
Bahama Breeze is in the settlement of White Sound, about a ½ hour walk by road from Hopetown proper, or a ten-minute boat ride on the bay. The bay is a short walk from the house.
Bahama Breeze is situated on an 18-foot bluff above a white sandy beach and crystal blue water of the Atlantic Ocean. A private stairway allows easy access to the beach. From the deck of the house, you can watch the sunrise out of the beautiful tropical sea! Swim, surf, or windsurf right in front of the house.
The house is designed for four (4) people. It has a large central living, dining, and kitchen area, and all rooms are equipped with air conditioning and overhead fans for maximum comfort. There are two full baths, each with showers, and each of the 2 bedrooms are privately accessible via their own doors onto the large, ocean-facing deck. You can view some beautiful sunsets from the kitchen deck. There is a separate tower house that accommodates 2 extra people.
The kitchen, with a refrigerator/freezer combination, gas stove, microwave, toaster, Mr. Coffee, and ample utensils is ready to do as much or as little cooking as desired. The Island has several lovely restaurants. The master bedroom has a queen-size bed and the second bedroom has twin beds. All linens are supplied including beach towels.

Caribbean Travel Tip
Entry and Exit Requirements
Entering: Every island in the Caribbean has its own entry requirements. Most countries allow you to visit for up to two or three months if you show proof of U.S. citizenship and a return or onward ticket. Some countries, however, require that you have a valid passport. If you are arriving from an area infected with yellow fever, many Caribbean countries require you to have a certificate of vaccination against yellow fever. Some countries have an airport departure tax of up to $25. For authoritative information on a country's entry and exit requirements and on its customs and currency regulations, contact its embassy, consulate, or tourist office in the United States.
Returning - Caution! Make certain that you can return to the United States with the proof of citizenship that you take with you. Although some Caribbean countries may allow you to enter with only a birth certificate, U.S. Immigration requires that you document both your U.S. citizenship and identity when you reenter the United States.
The best document to prove your U.S. citizenship is a valid U.S. passport. Other documents of U.S. citizenship include an expired U.S. passport, a certified copy of your birth certificate, a Certificate of Naturalization , a Certificate of Citizenship , or a Report of Birth Abroad of a U.S. Citizen.
To prove your identity, either a valid driver's license or a government identification card that includes a photo or a physical description is acceptable.
If you lose or have your U.S. passport stolen while overseas, report it immediately to the local police and the nearest U.S. embassy or consulate. A lost or stolen birth certificate or driver's license cannot be replaced outside the United States. There are several countries, most notably Barbados, the Dominican Republic, Grenada, Haiti, and Jamaica, where airlines have consistently refused to board American citizens with insufficient proof of U.S. citizenship. The resulting delays can be inconvenient as well as expensive.
