The room hums with low conversation and the clink of glasses as a harbor breeze slips through the open windows of John Watling’s Buena Vista Estate. Under the warm Bahamas light, guests become sleuths: clues appear, actors pace the carved-wood floors, and a bar of amber rum tides along the edge of the drama. The setting feels both theatrical and familiar — a colonial-era great house repurposed into a living puzzle where the drinks are part of the narrative.
