We had such an enjoyable stay here. It’s very quiet and secluded so you will need a car if you want to get out around the island, however the place the Inn is in is absolutely beautiful, with breathtaking views and a very secluded beach. The staff are really friendly and helpful and the food is delicious. Highly recommend!

Great Place to Unwind

Located in the quiet residential community of Schooner Bay 27 miles south of Marsh Harbor, this inn is a haven for future incoming residents and visitors to Abaco. The accommodations and chef are first class and we immediately were catered to in every way. A rental car is a must.

300 a night with no television, and no internet

This was a terrible stay. 300 a night with no television in room, no internet (technically has internet but poor and non existent), cell servicr is terrible in area sonyou cant use your cell either. And to top all that off when we bought breakfast one morning a lady told us we cant eat our food in the room. Utterly ridiculous!

Tranquility Defined

If you are looking for a "get away from it all" peaceful vacation with walks on a quiet beach and swimming in the ocean this is the place for you! The service was outstanding and the staff were extremely attentive. The food was prepared to prefection and we enjoyed the local cuisine. Renting a car is a must if you want to explore outside of Schnooner Bay Village. Although there is internet, bring your own entertainment as it is truly an unplugged experience. We spent an entire week there and loved it, very relaxing!

A Hidden Gem

What a beautiful place! We were pleasantly surprised and impressed with The Sandpiper Inn. Located a short walk from the most beautiful sandy beach we’ve seen and on the other side, crashing waves and a pretty beach full of conch shells and sea remnants. Our meals were truly delicious, 5 star quality food prepared beautifully. We would love to return!
