Small Hotel of the Year: Valentines Resort and Marina, Harbour Island, Bahamas This small hotel on Harbour Island in the Out Islands of the Bahamas achieves a difficult feat: combining a real, local feel with the amenities and quality of a modern, cutting-edge resort. On an island as historic and charming as Harbour Island, it’s even more difficult. But that’s just what the endlessly creative Valentines has done, with some of the Caribbean’s most beautiful guest rooms married to a vibrant, village-style layout.
