Tucked away off the busy section of Duval Street - but close enough to the hustle-bustle if you want it - is Heron House at 512 Duval Street.

What makes this one of the most romantic bed and breakfasts on the island? The moon deck for star-gazing, the ylang-ylang tree for its fragrance (it produces the main ingredient in Chanel No. 5), Room No. 7 for its whirlpool-for-two, and the physical layout of the entire place.

This is not your usual bed-and-breakfast. Each of the 23 rooms has its own exterior entrance, so you'll never feel as though you're staying in someone's spare bedroom. Room rates are $249 per night. For further information, call 800-294-1644.
