More Info:
The Small Hope Bay Lodge is an informal holiday resort that focuses around the central lodge built of coral rock and Andros pine. Comfortable couches and throw-pillows create a friendly home-like atmosphere. The Lodge houses a dining area, lounge/bar area, game room and reading room.
There is also a small boutique on the premises, a separate building for office administration and guest services and a staffed laundry facility. There is an outdoor patio bar and dining area for summer-night barbecues.
There are no phones (phone/fax/internet for guest use in the office), no newspapers, no TVs, no keys. Emphasis is on a natural environment with relaxing, low-impact lifestyle. There is no dress code -- bare feet, T-shirts, sarongs, anything (except neckties) is acceptable.
Small Hope Bay Lodge offers 14 private cabins and 4 family cabins (2 rooms sharing 1bath). We specialize in vacations featuring snorkeling and scuba diving, fishing, bird watching, eco-tours, weddings and honeymoons and of course, "rest, relaxation and rediscovery."
