NEW Hope Town Community Center- OPEN!
Heading your way to the Firefly Sunset Resort for the first time in 2017? Make sure not to miss the NEW Hope Town Community Center on your visit.
Opened on January, 14 2017 “The Community Center provides a place and opportunity to express and share all this creative energy so Hope Town will continue to thrive as a great place for families, community groups and cultural events. The building was designed to reflect the traditional island style and is situated on park land in the middle of the settlement, creating a thriving cultural/center for the community,” notes the Committee in a recent article published by The Abaconian.
In addition to adding to the culture of our quaint island town the Center is available for community events (Contact Monica Cook, monicacook@gmail.com, for bookings) as well as to facilitate use as a hurricane shelter.

Shining Light on Abaco Schools
Thanks to The Abaconian for publishing this great feature on the Patrick Davis Hope Town Songwriters Festival via the Abacobuzz.com and the amazing good the festival does for our community! Stay Tuned for the 2018 festival dates!
The Patrick Davis Hope Town Songwriters Festival has come and gone, and many great memories were made along the way. There were so many great performances during the week-long festival dedicated to the craft of songwriting, but the most important moments might not have even happened on stage at all. This year for the first time, Patrick Davis along with some of his talented friends gave back to the community by hosting an educational songwriting workshop for some lucky Abaco school children.
Twenty-two children from schools across Hope Town and Marsh Harbour came together on Sunday, February 12 at the Firefly Sunset Resort to learn the art and science of songwriting from the best in the business. Working together with Davis, Django Walker, Lauren Jenkins and Calynn Green the kids had an incredible amount of fun and also composed two original songs.
Over the past five years the Patrick Davis Songwriter Festival has turned into one of the premier events of the season in Hope Town, attracting thousands of music fans from across the islands as well as across the globe. Nashville’s finest minds make the trip across the water to enjoy the sun and sand while sharing their wonderful music with the island. This educational workshop is just one of the many ways the festival benefits the surrounding area, and we cannot wait to see what is in store for next year.

“My wife and I like to call firefly resort our home away from home. From arrival to departure you are treated with service beyond your expectation. Everyone associated with the property makes your every wish a reality. I would especially like to thank Lorenzo Barigelli and his staff for making our days and nights something special. We had the majority of our meals on the property. Chef “Jay” has composed a menu of extraordinarily delicious food, like no other on the island! We would also to thank the bar staff, Devero, Patrick, for their concoctions of delight….See you soon!”
“Our second family stay at Firefly was so good, we booked for next year before even leaving. Cottage was comfortable with great view. Restaurant and bar are the happening gathering place on Elbow Key. Golf cart was waiting for us when we got there. Boat rental just around the corner. Lorenzo and his team strive to make it an easy and enjoyable experience and they succeed on all fronts.”
