A Warm Welcome

“Welcome” is not a greeting in the Abacos, it’s a way of being, a way of seeing people—visitors or locals—and embracing their presence and time on the island. That’s why the Hope Town Inn & Marina has a whole new Welcome Center. The Hope Town Inn & Marina wants everyone to feel from the moment they arrive that welcome is a state of mind.

The new space offers high-speed internet, a coffee bar, a cocktail bar, a business center, a conference room and other amenities, the Welcome Center is designed to make people comfortable as they make their first contact with the property. Whether you’re arriving on a boat, booking a reservation for dinner, or making inquiries about buying a villa on the property, the Welcome Center is a physical extension of the warmth and heartfelt appreciation of islanders on the property and off to anybody who visits.

The Hope Town Inn & Marina Offers Dream Weddings

The fanning of palm fronds overhead for a witness, a soft crunch of surf to cadence the vows, sparkling water promising something blue—that’s before the arrival of any of your fond friends. The wedding season is all-year in the Bahamas.

The Hope Town Inn & Marina can host a wedding party on the grounds, indoors or outdoors, on the beach or by candlelight with white linen table service. You bring the love; we’ll surround it with romance.
