We had a lovely stay and cannot wait to return. The house has everything you need and more! We were just as excited to return from the beach each day to spend time in one of the many fun areas as we were to walk the pink sand beach. Lovely home, lovely hosts!
We loved the whole property. We would golf cart to the pink sands beach and then come back and lounge by the pool. We used the bbq which was lots of fun. Even had morning fires on the cooler mornings. We loved The Salt Box
The Pictures do not show how amazing this property isâŠ.. I canât wait to come again. Great location. Extremely comfortable and perfect for a family or group of friends. Special place !!
Sofia was very communicative and everything was perfectly maintained and thought out for our arrival. Sofia also provided helpful recommendations for our time on Harbour Island, which came in handy since it was our first time to the island. The house and guest house were well appointed and we enjoyed our time at the Salt Box. We hope to be back soon!
Our group of friends just stayed here for our third annual trip to the area and this is our favorite spot yet! Great location with beautiful yard and pool.
Salt Box is an amazing home in Harbour Island. The pool and outside area is perfect to relax at after a day at the beach. Great outside sitting areas. Bedrooms are very spacious and comfortable! Our family would easily go back!
This is a great place to stay if you have a big party, the rooms are spaced out nicely. While the indoor living space is small, the outdoor living area and pool area make up for it! We had the best time and plan to visit again soon.
Loved this property. The house is beautifully decorated with so much personality and functions perfectly. The outdoor garden is spacious and a lovely place to gather after a day at the beach.
The Salt Box is an incredibly beautiful property. Unassuming from the entrance, you step into an oasis with tons of charm to boot. We had 4 infant / toddlers that were very comfortable as well.
This is the best VRBO we have ever stayed at. The house is beautifully decorated and the landscaping is gorgeous. It had everything we could need and more. The location is right in the middle of everything and the host and staff were incredibly helpful and kind. We highly recommend and canât wait to go back.

Located on Dunmore street, the heart and center of Harbour Island, close to all restaurants, main government dock and beach. Privacy from the bustle of the town. Private garden, pool and preserved historical kitchen. One of the only historical homes left in the Bahamas from the era of circa 1820.
