Pink Sands Resort
Harbour Island, Bahamas
It is always important for a mother and daughter to find time just to spend with each other without all the distractions that face daily living. Where else to get away than to the Bahamas for a week solely devoted to the two of you? The intimate boutique hotel, Pink Sands Resort on Harbour Island in the Bahamas, is the ideal location for such a retreat. Sitting on 20 acres above one of the most beautiful beaches in the world (yes it is pink!), the resort provides peace and quiet. The 25 pastel-colored cottages, scattered throughout lush tropical grounds, provide the setting for a sophisticated but relaxed beach holiday. Walk along the three mile powder sand beach, enjoy gourmet meals, and take advantage of all manner of water sports or snooze on a secluded beach. The retreat will have no more than 10 mother/daughter couples. The retreat and facilities can also accommodate a mother bringing two daughters.
