French Cloister at One and Only Club
While the exclusive One and Only Club is for members only, one of its unique features is visible from the road which runs to the eastern end of Paradise Island. The gothic stone cloister was built in the 12th-13th century in France and transplanted to the Bahamas in 1962. While the grounds are not open to tourists, the cloisters are easily viewed from the road.
