Tingum Village Hotel

  • Address: Next to Harbour Island Library, Harbour Island

Fodor's Review:

These rustic cottages have high pine ceilings, sea-color furnishings, and the suites have netting above king-size beds, floor-to-ceiling corner windows, and two-person whirlpool tubs with garden views. In front of the hotel is Ma Ruby's Restaurant ($-$$), purported home of Jimmy Buffett's original "Cheeseburger in Paradise." Here you can sample Bahamian food, including the famous hamburgers made on "Ma" Ruby Percentie's homemade bread, on the breezy covered patio three times daily. Leave room for Ma's coconut tarts, key lime pie, or pound cake. Tingum Village is on the town's south end and a short walk from Harbour Island's famous pink-sand beach. Ruby's eighth child, Juanita Percentie, built a luxurious five-bed, five-bath, marble-floored, glass-walled villa with a pool and waterfall near Tingum next to the beach, that can also be rented.
