We hadn't planned on staying in Harbour Island while on Eleuthera, but because my 12 year old son was scuba-diving with a dive shop in Harbour Island towards the end of our visit, we decided to spend a night there before heading out on the ferry. We were fortunate that they had a room, and that there was a hotel... more

Our second time to the Tingum Village and we will keep coming back. Just love the place, island, people and hospitality. Feels like home away from home. Best hamburgers ever, great tropical setting and Ma Ruby always says Welcome home. Even though rooms are simple they were always clean and well maintained. more

You won't find the typical resort or similar amenities, but you will be hard pressed to find people more friendly than Juanita and Ma Ruby. I was a bit disappointed with some of the comforts of the room, but the receptive-ness, friendliness and willingness to help in any way they can made the stay very homely and intimate. We had... more

If you want an authentic Bahamian experience, this is the place for you. We stayed at Tingum Village and had a wonderful time. The staff was so friendly and personable. We enjoyed getting to know the legendary Ma Ruby and her family. Our room was very quiet and cozy. It was also amazingly clean. We returned from the beach and... more

I just spent a week in Harbour Island staying at Tingum Village Hotel. I was one of a party of nine: two sets of parents, four children and one grandparent. We rented the cottage and a room. Overall, our stay was delightful and a real bargain, especially given that it was high season. As other reviewers have emphasized, the place... more

I cannot believe the other reviews. Our experience was TERRIBLE. The room was dirty, lots of hairs in the bathtub, no water pressure, AND the owner organized a wedding in front of our room which was filled with unbearable noise all day long (actually you could hear the music all over the island). Ma Ruby was very rude too. more

Do you want relaxation and something different than the ordinary plastic-wrapped, hypersanitized, same-as everywhere-else visit. Then let Ma Ruby set you up for some fish stew and johnnycakes. Fish for breakfast? I didn't believe it would be good but boy was I in for a shock. Those Bahamians know how to make a filling healthy meal. Of course it takes... more

More than a dozen stays in more than a dozen years at Tingum Village! My husband, our daughters and many friends have enjoyed the hospitality of all the Percenties. We no longer feel like guests...it's more like a family reunion. The property is tropical, well kept and quiet. The rooms are spacious and clean. If you need anything...just ask...Juanita will... more

We had a great time with Ma Ruby. Her Inn -not really anything larger than that- was very clean, and the hospitality was great. more
