Rosewood's flagship within the Baha Mar complex delivers a distinctly more intimate luxury experience than its casino-resort neighbours. The 237 rooms and suites reference Bahamian craft traditions through woven textures and hand-painted woodwork; The Retreat Pool creates a genuinely calm adult sanctuary, and the Beach Club — exclusive to Rosewood guests — is one of Cable Beach's best stretches.

A 96-acre private island with just 20 villas and suites, Kamalame Cay in the Andros Bight is among the Bahamas's most exclusive escapes. The bonefishing, diving, and kayaking here are genuinely world-class, and the resort's commitment to privacy is absolute. A favourite of those in the know who find Harbour Island too social.

Perched on the hill above Harbour Island's harbour, Rock House is the destination's most stylish boutique — a former private home converted into nine rooms and suites of extraordinary taste. The infinity pool overlooking the harbour, the rooftop deck, and the Bahamian-spiced restaurant are all as good as they look in the pages of Condé Nast Traveler. A cult address.

Pink Sands is the original Harbour Island boutique — a series of tropical cottages set in three acres of garden directly above the three-mile pink sand beach. The property's design mixes Bahamian vernacular with the kind of colour-saturated Caribbean eclecticism that feels effortless here. Sunrise breakfasts on the private beach terrace are among the Caribbean's most quietly magnificent experiences.
