More Info:
Nettie Symonette is a native Bahamian, born on the island of Eleuthera. Nettie's Different of Abaco Ecotourism Resort is the result of her dreams and a lot of hard work. With years of hotelier experience behind her, Nettie acquired 635 acres of Crown land, locally perceived as primarily swamp and waste land, and created what is known today as "one of the most unique Ecotourism resorts in the Caribbean." -Wild Bird Magazine. Caribbean Travel and Life magazine says "Nettie's Different of Abaco is the best kept secret in the Caribbean." This visionary ongoing project was created without commercial financing and to the astonishment of many who said it couldn't be done.
She has won many other awards of distinction, among them: Most Outstanding Woman in Business (1988), Bahamas Who's Who Society Hospitality Hall of Fame Award (1990) and Silver Jubilee Award (1998).
Come share Nettie's vision. CNN Travel did and found it to be " A little piece of Heaven." Indulge yourself and enjoy an extraordinary Bahamian experience.
Nearby Attractions:
