Go to the museum first and check their hours. Shop at Vernon's Grocery (ask someone for directions) and buy their Key Lime pie. Stroll the town. Swim in the ocean behind the Hope Town hotel. The only thing I didn't like were the flies when we ate at outdoor restaurants.

Just came back from a week long stay at Leapin Lizards in Hopetown. I traveled with six adults and eight teenagers. We absolutely loved the charming Hopetown. We rented three golf carts and had easy transportation everywhere on the island. The house had the perfect layout with the beach cottage and the main house. We enjoyed the pool, hot tub,... More

Restaurants, a new coffee shop, also a new wine bar, baked bread delights by Vernon, the iconic candy-striped lighthouse, charming little pathways with names like Lover's Lane,... More

No crime, charming, hard to get to. No cars are allowed in town and everything is very well maintained, and a lovely little harbor.

The crystal blue water, soft sand beaches, quiet sea breeze, and swaying palm trees won’t fail to impress... More

The pure beauty of the island. The clear water, beautiful beaches. Not crowded or overly touristy. We loved just walking around the settlement of Hope Town and getting to know the people.
