The Ocean Club, A Four Seasons Resort, Bahamas will debut a redesign of its Hartford Wing accommodations in October 2026, refreshing 24 Hartford Ocean View Guestrooms and two Hartford Ocean View Suites. The project introduces a lighter, more contemporary palette drawn from the colors of the sand and sea, led by Palm Beach-based designer Joanna Kerr of Joanna Kerr Design.
Ocean Views & Upgraded Stays
Guestrooms replace darker wood paneling with blue linen-inspired wallcoverings, paired with mirrored detailing on headboard and television walls and layered wood finishes ranging from chocolate tones to warm greige oak. Furnishings reference vintage travel trunks, and custom artwork includes marine life paintings and patterned textiles. New tile flooring draws from sand and shell stone, while bathrooms feature wave-patterned stone tile and basketweave stone mosaics at the shower. Hand-tufted rugs carry basketweave motifs inspired by the property’s courtyard, and a private bar is finished in blue glass mosaic tile. Black-and-white photography throughout nods to the resort’s history.
The Hartford Wing, the resort’s original accommodation wing, opened in 1962 and sits near The Spa and the Martini Bar. Ground-floor guestrooms include private terraces overlooking the ocean and lawns.
Of note: Work concludes after the resort’s seasonal closure, with reservations open now for stays beginning Oct. 8, 2026.
Guests have access to three pools, including the Ocean Pool, the Family Lagoon Pool and the adults-only Versailles Pool, along with dining at DUNE by Jean-Georges, Ocean Blu and the Martini Bar. Recreation additions include two illuminated padel courts and three resurfaced Har-Tru tennis courts near the Versailles Gardens, plus pickleball, basketball and a multi-purpose turf field. Instruction is available from tennis and padel professional Marvin Rolle.
This fall, wellness expert Nora Tobin returns for Rejuvenation Weekends built around stress optimization, restorative sleep, performance, advanced nutrition and biophilic design, with themed weekends scheduled Oct. 16-19 and Dec. 4-7, 2026.
