The gated enclave of Lyford Cay, located on the island of New Providence, Bahamas, is considered one of the world’s most exclusive and posh communities. In this private haven renowned for its understated style and beautiful white sand beaches, the Lyford Cay Club serves as the social hub of the community. Town & Country was granted exclusive access to photograph the Lyford Cay Club after a seven-year overhaul by Tom Scheerer. “Lyford, to me, is all about pink. I think it stems from all the old colonial buildings downtown,” said Scheerer. Let’s take a virtual trip to pink paradise! Photography by Pieter Estersohn.

Looks like paradise!
It's so much the way Naples was…and the Port Royal Club still is…
Genteel, so pretty, classic, and timeless! John Volk did the structure, and Mimi McMakin of Kemble Interiors re-decorated it not too long ago- just stunning!
Absolutely true to it's roots of decades ago. I love that he redid the place, but kept the same feeling. It is truly beautiful and for the beautiful people. Great post.
I can see why it's so exclusive – simply divine!
My then 12 year old son spent a week at Lyford Cay Club with a well-to-do friend and his parents (private jet and all!!) I considered stowing away in his luggage but didn't think I'd be able to dodge them all for an entire week, and how to explain how I'd gotten there???
He raved about it for months, especially the crepes they made him for breakfast. Ah yes, the crepes . . . .
He had no comments about the design, though — I guess the food was far more memorable!
