THE BAHAMAS' SERENE SECRET

THE BAHAMAS' SERENE SECRET

Only a mile wide, this slender, unspoiled island faces the Atlantic Ocean to the east and the Caribbean Sea to the west. That combination offers island goers the best of both worlds: dramatic, rocky coastline with crashing waves on the Atlantic; crystal-clear calm waters and white sand beaches on the Caribbean.

Nestled on the Caribbean side is The Cove Eleuthera, a resort that feels like its own private island. It's the type of under-the-radar place that celebrities love. (Lenny Kravitz lives just down the road.) But there's no pretension here.
