GOLF CART ACCESS
If you rent a golf cart, we have a private path leading down to the "lower road," aka Queen's Highway, where we have a parking area. The parking area, which is outside the gated settlement area, provides quick access to the middle and south end of the island (rental carts are NOT allowed inside the settlement except by special arrangement with the Town Council). It's a short walk from our house and down the path to the parking area.
NO GOLF CART? NO PROBLEM!
If you’re unable or unwilling to rent a golf cart, rest assured that our location is ideal for getting around by bike or on foot. Three of the main restaurants on the island are within walking distance, and the other three offer shuttle service.
ADDITIONAL BOOKING DETAILS
- Requests for stays under seven days will be considered on a case-by-case basis, but the norm during holiday weeks and peak periods is a seven-day minimum.
- Christmas and New Year’s are separate full weeks with mid-holiday changeovers unless otherwise agreed.
- We’re unable to accommodate Sunday arrivals unless agreed to in advance. As for Sunday departures, guests will need to manage their own departure logistics.
SOLAR POWER
The house is powered by a new roof-mounted 15,000 kilowatt, 27-panel solar system that runs everything except the dryer and the air conditioning, both of which are powered by the local electric utility (BPL). The solar system avoids the unpredictable and disruptive power outages that are an unfortunate part of life on the island. BPL automatically recharges the solar batteries in the unlikely event that their charge falls below 20% (overnight charge levels typically remain above 75% and are back to 100% by late morning). The house has a manual generator to replenish the solar batteries in the unlikely event of an extended outage and overcast weather -- something that has happened only once.
DOCK SPACE
Private dock space is available nearby upon request for an additional charge.
LONG HISTORY
Hope Chest has been a beloved vacation getaway for a US family since 1959. The original bungalow-style house was destroyed in Hurricane Dorian in 2019. Many items were recovered and re-used in "Hope Chest 2.0." The new house features modern conveniences and is more than twice the size of its predecessor.
MOBILITY ISSUES
We have one of the highest locations in the settlement area, roughly 40 feet above sea level. This gives us wonderful ocean breezes and spectacular views, but it may be problematic for individuals with mobility issues. Please reach out for more information if this is a concern.
BEACHFRONT SAFETY
The beach in front of the house is constantly changing. During warmer months, when southerly seas prevail and bring sand, it's often fine to swim directly in front of our stairs. At other times, however, rocks may be exposed at low tide and we recommend walking a few hundred feet to the left for safer swimming (near the cell tower and before the tall pink house).

This 4 Bedrooms House provides accommodation with Parking, Wellness Facilities, Guest Services, for your convenience. This House features many amenities for guests who want to stay for a few days, a weekend or probably a longer vacation with family, friends or group. This House is less than 2 km from Hope Town, and gives visitors the opportunity to explore it. The rental House has 4 Bedrooms and 3 Bathrooms to make you feel right at home.

Summary: Just had an unforgettable stay at this beautiful, comfortable home! Perfectly situated close to town but with privacy and breathtaking ocean views. We loved having direct beach access, enjoying dinners on the porch, and stargazing from the deck under the clear night sky. The host was great, sharing local knowledge and making the entire stay seamless. From check-in to check-out, everything was easy and stress-free. It was truly a memorable getaway, and we can’t wait to return!

Summary: We recently stayed at the Hope Chest in Hope Town, and our experience was nothing short of incredible. From the moment we booked, Chuck, the owner, went above and beyond to ensure our trip was seamless and enjoyable. He was incredibly helpful in arranging transportation to and from the airport, handling our luggage, and even connecting us with local companies to rent a golf cart, boat, and dock space. Although we were initially concerned about the weather affecting our plans, it ended up turning in our favor, allowing us to proceed as scheduled. Chuck was very understanding and willing to work with us had we needed to make changes, which gave us peace of mind. His local staff is just as wonderful—always available, super helpful, and easy to reach whenever we needed anything. One of the best parts about Hope Chest is its fantastic location. It’s so close to downtown that we didn’t even need to use the golf cart—we just strolled down the charming little street past the schoolhouse to get wherever we needed to go. It was a truly great experience. The Hope Chest is a beautiful property, and our stay here made our vacation unforgettable. We can't wait to return!

Summary: Excellent location with access to Hope Town Harbor and the Atlantic Ocean. Beautiful beach to swim and snorkel with private stairs from property. Boat access is a short walk down to town to the public dock or you could rent a dock. Once you’re on your boat there is so much to explore! Don’t worry the owner will provide the scoop on all the things to do. Golf cart not necessary but if you want to explore south end of island thoroughly probably best, we just went by boat instead. The house is beautiful and just steps out of the settlement so you will feel like you are on your own island. It has everything you need. Clean comfortable and relaxing. Couldn’t have had a better time. Hope to be back soon!

Summary: From the moment you arrive at Hope Chest you are greeted with unobstructed views of the Atlantic. Accessible yet secluded this house is the perfect balance for those seeking both relaxation and activities. The house was impeccably clean, the efficient floor plan has spacious communal areas with private retreats, making it ideal for large family groups with children like ours. We put all the kids in the spacious upstairs, but the upstairs would be a great space for adults too. The highlight of Hope Chest for us were the outdoor spaces with the expansive covered deck off the house and additional seating area perched over the ocean with views of the Atlantic from all spaces. The host was incredibly helpful and communicative, promptly answering all inquiries and ensuring a smooth arrival. Throughout our stay, they remained attentive, offering recommendations for local attractions. Be sure to rent a golf cart to explore the island and get to restaurants. We found that keeping our boat at the nearby Post Office dock worked well. Well done, Hope Chest - we will definitely return.

Summary: Our stay at Hopechest 2.0 was fantastic! The house was very clean and exactly as advertised. We had a beautiful beach view from the house and deck, and it was very easy to get to the beach to swim. The house is walking distance to the grocery and a few good restaurants. The house was very new and comfortable and had everything we needed. We were two families traveling together, and it worked perfectly. The owner and the caretakers were all attentive and very helpful with any questions we had. I would definitely stay here again!
