Jun22596 10 | LUXlife Magazine Encompassing a meticulous blend of West Indies and coastal-style architecture both inside and out, The Inn at Bald Head Island (Bald Head Island Inn LLC) is comprised of ten luxury bedroom suites that each boast their own full bathroom. Eight of these rooms can be found in the main house, with seven possessing balconies overlooking such sites as the nearby marina and the famous Old Baldy lighthouse. A disability-friendly room is then available on the first floor, complete with a king-sized bed and such accessible amenities as a roll-in shower. The Inn at Bald Head Island’s second floor holds both a seating area and five of these suites, all of which contain king beds for maximum comfort. Going up to the third and final floor, this is where the final two suites in the main house can be found, one possessing both a king bed and a daybed, and the other a king. Each of these rooms also has a flat-screen television, as well as unique furniture that gives every space its own sense of character, something further underpinned by all of the suites being individually named. As for the other two rooms, these are housed in the crofter cottage, with each consisting of king beds that can convert to twin beds, full bathroom facilities, and a sizeable porch/sitting area. Just like the main house, these crofter rooms are complete with the likes of hardwood floors and elements that strike the balance between timeless and modern décor, with each telling its own story and embodying the guiding motto of this luxury B&B - “Timeless Island Elegance” - to the full. The innate elegance here manifests itself in other ways too, such as in the shared dining and social areas that allow guests to interact with one another, something that begins with the full continental breakfast included with every stay. From fresh fruits to pastries, yogurt, muffins, and bagels, oatmeal, and frittatas. The vast selection available here means that there is something for every fancy. A similar approach is taken when it comes to serving the afternoon refreshments, a time when wine flows freely and guests can tuck into the likes of meats, cheeses, and sweets. Jul24005 Best Luxury B&B 2024 - North Carolina On the east side of the Cape Fear River in North Carolina’s Brunswick County is the gem Bald Head Island. A small and relatively remote island village, its tranquil nature is underpinned by the fact that it is only accessible by ferry, and there are no private gas powered vehicles allowed on the island. Nestled in the heart of this landscape in Harbor Village, The Inn at Bald Head Island has been providing remarkable getaways since opening its doors to guests back in 1993. Today, it is owned and kept by Dann and Gail Jackson and their stellar team, who have been upholding its stellar reputation since taking the reins in 2017. “We are always adding new items to our selection of breakfast offerings and introducing new wines, appetisers, or cheeses.” Beyond the borders of this luxury B&B lies the continuation of the perfect holiday experience, with approximately 10,000 of Bald Head Island’s 12,000 total acres made up of largely untouched beaches, marshes, and forests. With 14 miles of beach to explore and serene landscapes aplenty, Dann and Gail afford each guest complimentary access to beach chairs and umbrellas, as well as bicycle hire. Since cars are not allowed here, patrons may wish to hire golf carts to journey around, the preferred method of travel for the village’s locals. Golf carts are more than just a random vehicle choice, as the B&B is situated just a short cart ride from the renowned Bald Head Island Club Golf Course, which is one of the most acclaimed renovated courses across the US and one that any fan of the sport should have the opportunity to play on at least once. This remarkable course and the nature that surrounds it also lends itself to an abundance of natural wildlife environments, housing everything from deer and red foxes through to alligators and a selection of beautiful birds. On top of all of this, every guest can enjoy access to the neighbouring BHI (Bald Head Island) and Shoals clubs, two leading institutions that bring with them a host of first-class activities that range from golf at the aforementioned course through to swimming, tennis, pickleball, and croquet. Several thousand square feet’s worth of fitness facilities and access to a number of remarkable restaurants round out the perks of these memberships, making them one of the defining elements of every stay at, North Carolina’s premier luxury B&B. When it comes to pinpointing other such elements that make this bed and breakfast hotel a cut above the rest, one of the things that its guests enjoy the most is its 21+ adults-only status and the pet-free environment
