The Resort Lifestyle Guide: A Harbour Island Escape
December 12, 2024
Welcome to our latest Lifestyle Guide, where we take our new arrivals for a spin and cross off must-do activities in a bucket list location. Our latest destination? Harbour Island for a sunny getaway in the Bahamas.
Welcome to Harbour Island, where the sand is pink, the water is crystal clear, and the relaxation is endless. First step? Checking into the Salt Box— the ideal home-away-from-home base.
Harbour Island is a special place with charm and history. We were excited to find one of our favorite interior designers, Tom Sheerer, has a home you can rent there. His style is classic yet boho and understated—you’ll feel relaxed and at home the whole time.
Kick off your warm-weather escape, throw on some stripes from one of favorite resort designers, Cala de la Cruz, and hit the pool.
Sailor striped pants are trending, and we’re here for it. Rock these MOTHER jeans with a little white bikini or tee to let the stripes have their moment.
Must-haves for day at the beach: a Hunza G swimsuit and easy coverup to throw on and go from Tnuck Beach.

“My favorite stretch of beach is Girls Bank (seen above). I’ll go there in the morning with my breakfast and dogs, and watch them run and scare the herons who nest in the Lone Tree there!” -India Hicks
Nothing says “you’ve arrived” like that first night out on the town. Whether a mod mini or a neutral shift, it’s the details—trellis, crochet, cutouts—that make these dresses noteworthy.
Visit the town of North Eleuthera and stop by Eva’s Gifts to weave a custom basket as a souvenir for friends. The foolproof outfit formula for shopping around: a plain white tank, boho maxi skirt, and on-trend jellies.

“My favorite shop is The Sugar Mill, a treasure trove of goodies discovered from around the world. You can find almost anything for anyone. But I am biased—it’s my shop, after all.”-India Hicks
A monochromatic look is a no-brainer on vacation. Packing hack: you can wear this eyelet skirt from the beach to the bar.
Island Treasures
Have fun with statement jewelry at the beach or pool—think shell shapes, chunky collars, and colorful earrings.
Bikes or golf carts are your ride while on Harbour Island. The easiest way to look put-together is a matching striped set. And the biggest win? You can mix-and-match for three outfits in one.
A breezy shirt dress is a closet hero, but make it island-ready with a twist—a retro pattern in a sunny yellow shade. Style with wrap sandals and your hair pulled back for an effortless look.

“My go-to supper spot is The Dunmore Hotel. Their restaurant was designed by Amanda Lindroth, who understands the history, style, and architecture of The Bahamas. You’ll see lots of white canvas , peach stripes, rattan and cane.” -India Hicks
This Banjanan beauty is one of those dresses you’ll wear again and again. Equal parts bohemian and feminine, the paradise-worthy print is made for days and nights alike.
There’s nothing like waking up to the sunshine and a plate of fresh fruit. A caftan dress is incredibly easy to wear from breakfast to the beach to the backyard and bar. It will be your wardrobe workhorse, vacation edition.
Our idea of a good vacation is breaking a sweat. Whether you’re planning to hit the court or just throw on something comfy, don’t forget to pack a few pieces from Tnuck Sport . We recommend a pleated skirt, classic polo, and extra layer to beat the breeze pre-match.
