Ocean Club Resort
The upscale Ocean Club Resort is located
on Paradise Island in the Bahamas. It used
to be the private mansion in the late thirties
of A&E heir, Huntington Hartford; however,
it is now the only resort in the Bahamas that
is a member of the Leading Hotels of the
World. The Versailles Gardens, which can
be found on the resort property is famous to
visit.
The afternoon and high teas are served in
The Library. From The Library, visitors can
set eyes on the green lawn and the vast
ocean.
It would never be expected that well-served
traditional tea could be found on an island in
the Bahamas, but one would be surprised.
Both the quality of the food and service
were excellent. The appetizing display of
tea sandwiches were made from fresh
ingredients. Recipes are changed daily by
Chef John Lotarsky, and the devonshire
cream is prepared fifteen minutes prior to
the serving of tea. The dessert array and
the scones were the best we had in the
island. After our afternoon tea experience,
we walked around the premises and
throughout the garden. It was very tranquil
and private, unlike most other resorts.
Afternoon tea is served from three to five
o'clock, and no reservation is required.
