Why the Owner Chose Hopetown
We have vacationed in Hope Town for over 30 years always renting local properties.We recently bought Banana Split as a newly built house. The house is extremely well designed by a local Architect/ builder and finished and furnished to a high standard.Hope Town is a perfect place to relax and unwind.Elbow Cay is fringed with white sand beaches and crystal clear seas. Locals are welcoming and friendly.
The Unique Benefits of this House
Banana Split benefits from cool breezes and escapes the hustle & bustle of the main community whilst being close enough to reach the bars, restaurants, shops and harbour.The secluded pool and tropical gardens are perfect places to relax.The house is tastefully furnished in a West Indies style. All equipment is new.Each bedroom has a bathroom and the downstairs is ideal for a couple,teenagers or grandparents
