Check Availability & Pricing
Hotel Information: An intimate boutique resort designed by Biba founder Barbara Hulanicki, Pink Sands attracts an international clientele, including celebrities, by providing secluded, private accommodations on Harbour Island, an uncrowded beach, and romantic dining. The resort is set in a gently hilly 20-acre tropical forest and features dense gardens, fieldstone walls, and pebble-and-concrete paths.
Amenity highlights: A sand path through sea grape-covered dunes leads to an east-facing, 3-mile beach of pinkish sand washed by the turquoise Atlantic. On the beach, resort guests are provided with thatched shades and lounge chairs. Use of snorkeling gear, kayaks, and boogie boards is complimentary. The resort's swimming pool is bordered by trees and flower pots. Above the pool deck, a pavilion offers shaded relaxation.
Insider tip: Guests wandering through the resort's forested grounds find lawn-covered clearings and tropical-tree groves with chairs and benches. These secluded areas are ideal for intimate conversation and leisurely contemplation.
