A Stone’s Throw Away: The stairs leading to this boutique hotel overlooking downtown Nassau isn’t quite as impressive as Nassau’s famous Queen’s Staircase, but it hints at the great views you’ll get when you reach the top. Set back from West Bay Street on the quieter west end of New Providence Island, A Stone’s Throw Away has ocean and garden king room suites in a porch-wrapped building styled after traditional Bahamian mansions. Stays include continental breakfast served on the porch overlooking the ocean, and a grotto pool is a quiet sanctuary for guests.
