Nestled on the edge of Harbour Island's famed three-mile pink sand beach, Pink Sands is a tranquil 20-acre haven. Designed by Biba founder Barbara Hulanicki, this eclectic retreat comprises twenty-five pastel-colored cottages scattered throughout lush tropical grounds. Easily accessible from major cities in the United States, Europe, and South America, Pink Sands is just 50 miles east of Nassau and a short 20-minute land and water taxi trip from North Eleuthera International Airport (ELH). Known for its relaxed atmosphere, the island offers a sophisticated escape from the crowds. Guests enjoy privacy in their cottages, perfect for a luxurious beach holiday. Bicycles and golf carts are the preferred modes of transportation around this charming island, just three and a half miles long and a half-mile wide. Pink Sands offers luxury amenities, including Anichini linens, massage bath products, and wireless internet.
