Das Kloster ist ein klassisches Bahama-Korallenstein Hause, im Jahre 1834 gebaut und vom Innenarchitekten Tom Scheer mit neuen Updates von Margaret Naeve, Antiquitätenhändler und Designer aus Houston, Texas restauriert. Das Kloster diente einst als Heimat der Nonnen Unterricht an der katholischen Schule. Es ist günstig im Herzen von Dunmore Town, nur einen Block von der Bucht, nur wenige Schritte von der Rock House und der Landung, und einen kurzen Spaziergang vom berühmten drei Meile Pink Sands Beach Harbor Island.

My family and I loved staying at The Convent! The house is more than charming ----decorated with beautiful Swedish antiques---and even with it being decorated with the very expensive antiques, it still keeps a definite feeling of a very livable and relaxing beach house. Swedish antiques have very clean, simple lines with no fuss so it all feels very open and refreshing. The house has many outdoor spaces and we used all of them! I always had breakfast in the small garden patio outside of the dining area. In the late afternoons, we sat on the patio overlooking the main street so we could watch the people going by either walking or riding in golf carts. A great way to see the local Bahamian natives! We used the patio overlooking the pool when we came in from the beach . We could take a dip in the pool rinsing off the salt and sand from being at the beach all day and then relax on the beautiful lavender and white comfy cushions on the patio overlooking the pool. The kitchen with its blue and white antique tiles from Portugal was a joy to cook in and had all the equipment and dishes you might need. The entry with pecky cypress walls welcomed us every day with the large white saarinen center table where we could leave our keys,etc on. We never felt the need to lock the house. The entry also has a hanging straw hat collection that we could borrow from when going to the beach. The location of the house is perfect for wherever you want to go. We used a golf cart while there and could be at the beach in less than 5 minutes, be at The Landing in 5 minutes, grocery store 5 minutes away---its location in the center of town was a grand convenience in every way! There is even a great bakery down the street 2 minutes away that makes fresh coconut bread every morning---among many other delicious confections for breakfast or lunch. The house is fully equipped including a washer and dryer and ice machine. There is a gardener, a housekeeper and a house manager that come everyday. The house manager is great and tends to any problem that you might have. He also is a fabulous
guitarist and singer. We saw him perform at the Pink Sands Hotel one evening. I bet he might even perform for you if you decided to entertain at home one evening! I can't say enough about this house----I hope to go back many more times. Harbour Island beaches are the most beautiful in the world!
Harbour Island is a special place on its own merits – but the combination of location, space, décor, outdoor space/pool, staff and extremely gracious owner (Vivien) at Convent conspire to deliver an exceptional island experience.
HI is about being outside (particularly the stunning beach) - but after spending long hours at the beach – we loved coming back to relax by the pool (sometimes it gets windy on the beach), grill and host friends in the extensive outdoor seating areas.
To assist with your stay, Vivien has assembled a dedicated team of on island personnel (Clenide, Smith and Rocky). The ad mentions housekeeping included – that understates things a bit. Clenide (as pleasant as can be) is at the house for 4-5 hrs a day:
• All bathrooms/bedrooms tended daily
• All floors swept/mopped daily
• Fresh towels daily - linens as necessary/requested (the sheets are ironed!)
• Personal laundry items washed per request (she ironed our t-shirts!)
I mentioned we like to grill a few nights and Smith always ensures the outdoor area is fully cleaned and ready to go. If you need charcoal/lighter fluid - just let Smith know.
We had a great stay at Convent – and look forward to returning next year!
Thanks again Vivien!
First time to H.I and such a wonderful introduction. The house is well located for all amenities, beautifully designed and the Owner couldn't have been more helpful. We would love to come back!
The house was old and charming. The neighborhood was very friendly. Everyone involved with the property were super attentive, but gave us our space.
The perfect Bahamian home, tons of charm and beautifully appointed.
The Convent was in the most perfect place on the island. It is about 4 blocks from the Gov't Dock when you arrive ( we got a golf cart ride to it because of the luggage) and a few blocks from 2 great coffee shops and the center of the island ( for groceries, hardware store, etc..). The house is beautifully decorated and private. The owner and the housekeeper/caretakers were attentive and wonderful. I traveled with 4 other friends ( 5 in total) and we each felt like we had alot of private space but also enjoyed the large living room, big back porch for coffee and the large pool. We will definitely return! P.S. Ross Rentals,for a large golf cart,was great and we used Jeff Fox for some amazing snorkeling trips. The golf cart was wonderful for getting to all the beach restaurants at night, so highly recommend.
