Well, the hotel part of it anyway. We run a small 5 room place, with a very big garden, as those of you who hang out on the nature forum might know...I'm always posting pictures of the multitude of flora in our garden...we can't compete with Sandals or Atlantis, but it's our little piece of "paradise". (Uh, my husband loves to play with power tools and he was responsible for the shutters that look like feet! :rolleyes: :lol: )
Taken with 350D, 18-55mm kit lens and ND 0.6 grad, sun was behind the building.

Cute place Elisabeth. Looks like a nice place just to hang out and enjoy your flowers. Give your husband a "at a boy" for the shutters. They are too cool!
Your place is my kind of place. Much rather do this than Sandals anyday.

Neat place, E-A. What would a week there cost? and what is there nearby? I assume the beach is close, would a guest spend all his time there?

Yeah I second what the last person said...what are your charges and where are you located??? I love the looks, just my style. Kind of bohemian fun. By the way, were you born there or did you move from somewhere else???

Hello Elizabth-Ann;
You need to get your web address for the hotel on here...
I can already feel the urge to take a trip...
Cheers;
Lee

PS: I assume the feet aren't a life size image!
I'm more intrigued by what's on the left...

Great shot E-A and a great place. This is also the kind of place I would want to go to. Very cozy, friendly and peaceful.

Wow, thank you all for the enthusiastic responses - I wasn't sure if it was OK to advertize our business on here, but if you click on the link to my website, there is a gallery (still rather in progress, need to get a few more photos of the place, inside and out posted) and of course there is a contact page on the website. We are within easy walking distance of nice beaches and downtown Nassau, historic sites and the local zoo. We are on the main road, so transportation, tours etc are readily available. I'll post our rates on the website, please check there and of course we will be delighted to see POTN members!!:lol:
