Tired of the dark and cold Northeastern winter, my wife and I retreated to Stocking Island for 8 days of snorkeling, hiking and bonefishing. It was all we hoped to find, blue skies and bluer water, 4 miles of clean ocean beach with no other walkers in sight most mornings, and in the evening Carol's gourmet dinners. David and Carol...

Hotel Higgins Landing is unique in its beauty and peacefulness. Four lovely cottages sprinkled throughout the property afford privacy, yet are a short walk to gorgeous beaches, water sports, and an honor bar. Our porch was wonderful area for eating breakfast each morning as we watched the gorgeous boats cruising in the harbor. After dinner we returned to our lounge... More

Spent about a week with teenage sons - our best vacation ever. Beautiful island with many exosystems to explore and so few people to share it with. We explored all day, snorkeled, sailed, bodysurfed, etc., ate fantastic meals in the evening, and simply reconnected as a family. Carol and Dave (owners) were lovely to all of us and helped make...

Higgins Landing is a little gem. We just returned from our two week stay and are already planning our next visit. This hotel is more of a personal retreat than an upscale spa. It is off the beaten track-not easy to get to, but well worth the effort. This is the spot for you if you love beautiful, unspoiled beaches,... More

The island is all one could hope for in terms of beauty and serenity. The cottages and hotel ambiance was perfect until the second day when we experienced an "episode we still find difficult to comprehend". After the first night in our adorable cottage, we left two notes in our room with respect to the "rules of the cottage" left... More

My boyfriend and I were looking for a place where we could be away from the crowds and the tourists that often seem to define the Bahamas. If you are looking for a similar experience, we cannot say enough to recommend Hotel Higgins. The food, the location, and the views are fantastic at this resort. We very much enjoyed having... More

Actually this was the third time we stayed at Higgins and are presently planning our fourth visit. THE place to go to turn off the world and be pampered while doing it. Fantastic beaches, wonderful accomodations, and a five-star chef. Each time we've been there we've been spoiled for more.

My husband and I stayed at Hotel Higgins Landing for our 1st Anniversary. We so enjoyed our trip that we are returning this May for our 2nd Anniversary. Carol and Dave Higgins are outstanding hosts and made this trip wonderful! The bungalows are beautifully decorated and eco friendly. Perfectly private and all with spectacular views of the water. Our evenings... More

In November 2005 I reserved a 2 bedroom cottage for a surprise family vacation over New Year's, at Higgins Landing. I also purchased 4 non-refundable airline tickets to Exuma. From the date of my reservation, the balance was due just (3) days later. However, at the time I arranged the details of the reservation with the hotel's owner, this was... More
