My husband and I recently celebrated our 10th anniversary at the Rock House in Harbour Island. The hotel, designed and operated by Alabama native, Wallace Tutt, is quite simply an amazing place to vacation. From the moment of our arrival, we were greeted with the warmest of welcomes and were provided impeccable service, accommodations and delicious food in a most gorgeous setting throughout our entire stay. The island is fantastic and the locals are friendly, polite and helpful. The hotel staff is a "family," and they treat you with utmost respect and discretion. Wallace has an amazing attention to detail, and I was amazed at and appreciative of the effort that he and his staff exhibit to ensure that Rock House guests enjoy every aspect of their stay. The art, decor, fresh orchids, linens and breakfast goodies are wonderful. We enjoyed fresh fruit and homemade bread, scones and yogurt each morning at the pool under the veranda. Our time at the beach was also enjoyable -- always with fresh towels, cold water and padded lounge chairs. We had everything we needed to relax and enjoy the pink sand on the island and crystal clear water in the ocean. Sunsets each evening at the Rock House are something not to miss, and the food at dinner was the best on the island. With nine rooms, the hotel offers a quaint experience and an opportunity to meet others from around the world. We eagerly await our next opportunity to experience all the wonderful amenities that the Rock House offers.

We just returned from the best vacation of all time! After reading other reviews we had high expectations, but Don and Wallace exceeded them. They make you feel at home the minute you enter their establishment. During the entire stay the staff refers to each guest on a first name basis which makes you feel right at home.

The food at Rock House is amazing, both lunch and dinner were spectacular! They will even pack you a picnic basket if you would like to go on an excursion.

We stayed in the Palm Room which overlooked the breathtaking bay. The balcony is equipped with comfortable lounge chairs to relax on while taking in the views or a serene sunset. The linens and bed define pure comfort.

Typically, we look for beach side hotels, however, we are glad we chose the Rock House. The two minute golf cart ride to the beach allows you to discover both the beauty and friendliness of the island. They provide beach chairs, umbrellas and bottled water on their own section of the beach, which is located next to Sip-Sip an excellent choice for lunch or a local cocktail.

All in all, Wallace and Don ensured that our every need was met from the moment we arrived to the minute we left. We were sad to leave this special place, and already are planning our next visit.

the Rock House is a fantastic, small boutique hotel (8 rooms). It is in a great location and is a 5 minute walk to the beautiful beach and to many great restaurants. The owners and staff were really attentive and the food at the hotel was delicious. The hotel does not allow children.

My wife and I recently visited the Rock House at the advice of friends to celebrate our 11th anniversary. We arrived with high expectations but left with those expectations greatly exceeded.

The hotel is impeccably decorated, serves tremendous cuisine, and the service is easily the best on the island.

The food bears no resemblance to traditional bahamain food. Could just as well be eating at a top restaurant in midtown (albeit with exceptionally better views!). We even canceled our reservations at another spot for our last night so we could enjoy one final dinner. If it is on the menu - order the Grouper.

Wallace & Don (the owners) are tireless and cater to your every whim. They bring new meaning to the word "at your service." They made us feel so welcomed that by the end of our stay we felt as though we were saying goodbye to friends. Also would reccomend Wallace's Bloody Mary - not to be missed.

We would (and already have!) strongly reccomend the Rock House. Already counting the days to a return visit...
