This was an unforgettable experience from start to finish. Even though communicating in English was a bit of a challenge for us, my husband actually found it to be a positive and enriching part of the trip. Every single staff member we interacted with was incredible—warm, professional, and always going the extra mile. Special shoutout to the amazing girl who helped us with our excursions; her name escapes me right now (something like Avis), but she made everything so smooth and enjoyable. The resort itself is stunning—luxurious, peaceful, and beautifully maintained. We truly felt pampered throughout our stay. If you're looking for a perfect beach getaway with exceptional service and a relaxed vibe, this is the place. 10/10 would return without hesitation.
Graycliff Hotel is an absolute gem nestled in Nassau, offering a serene escape with a rich history and timeless elegance that’s hard to find these days.

Staying at Orange Hill Beach Inn was an absolute highlight of my trip to Nassau! The location is perfect—just steps away from a pristine white-sand beach with crystal-clear water. The ambiance is serene and tropical, making it ideal for unwinding. The staff went above and beyond with their warm hospitality—always smiling, helpful, and attentive without being overbearing. My room was clean, well-maintained, and had a lovely view of the ocean. I especially appreciated how easy it was to get around; the local bus stop is just a short walk away, and downtown Nassau is within reach in minutes. The overall experience felt genuine and relaxing, with no frills but plenty of charm. If you're looking for a peaceful, authentic Bahamian getaway with great value, this place is a must-visit. I’d definitely come back.
The stay at Brownstone Marlin Drive was absolutely fantastic! The staff were incredibly attentive—when they learned a larger group was arriving, they proactively moved us to a quieter room and even upgraded us without hesitation. That kind of thoughtful service really made a difference. The team was warm and friendly throughout our visit, and linens were changed every other day, keeping everything fresh and clean. The pool area was inviting, the grounds beautifully landscaped, and we felt very secure walking around the property. It’s clear that attention to detail and guest comfort are top priorities here. A truly memorable experience with excellent value—definitely planning to come back.
This hotel is absolutely incredible—every single detail was spotless and thoughtfully designed. The resort offers an impressive array of amenities, and the access to the water park is a major highlight, especially for families with kids. Dining options are diverse and top-notch, with excellent service from every staff member we interacted with. From check-in to checkout, everything felt seamless and luxurious. Whether you're looking for relaxation, adventure, or just a high-end getaway, this place delivers in every way. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone. Five stars? More like ten. A truly unforgettable experience.
The stay was decent overall, but I’m not sure I’d return. The location is a highlight—well removed from the hustle and bustle of Nassau and the cruise port, yet still close to the beach and quiet enough for a relaxing getaway. Our room was beautifully decorated and recently renovated, giving it a fresh, upscale feel. There are two large pools—one heated, the other more temperate—and direct beach access. You can even take a short boat ride to their private island, which added a nice touch to the experience. The mini-bar was included, though we had to call reception daily to get it refilled—something that felt like extra effort. Unfortunately, room cleaning was inconsistent. Every day something was missed: towels, bath mats, mopping floors, or sometimes the entire room wasn’t cleaned at all. We were on the 6th floor, and water pressure was terrible—on full blast, we barely got a trickle. That made showers frustrating. The Sandals app is clunky and unreliable, with frequent crashes and poor navigation. We’re glad we didn’t book a butler room; the tiered service system felt unfair and unnecessary. Dining experiences varied wildly—from excellent meals and great service to some really disappointing ones. While the all-inclusive package promises premium alcohol, we were handed wine lists with surcharges in several restaurants. No one informed us upfront which wines were already covered, so we only found out after asking. It felt like a sneaky way to upsell. Luckily, our room faced the quieter side of the East Bay building. Rooms overlooking the west pool are much noisier due to constant events and loud music throughout the day, which disrupted rest. Overall, the resort has strong potential, but inconsistencies in service and transparency let it down.
Staying at this resort was an absolute dream! The moment I walked into my room, I was greeted with breathtaking ocean views—literally falling asleep with the sound of waves. The entire atmosphere is calm and luxurious, making it feel like a true escape. Everything about the place, from the serene surroundings to the thoughtful touches, made me feel completely relaxed. If you're looking for a peaceful, all-inclusive retreat with stunning sea views, this is the perfect spot.
I absolutely love this place! The highlight has to be Max, the parrot—so much fun chatting with him every time I walked by. The hotel is literally right in the heart of town, which means no need to rent a car or pay for taxis constantly. As someone who hates walking, that’s a huge plus. Everything I needed was within easy reach—restaurants, shops, and local sights—all just a short stroll away. It’s such a convenient and charming stay. I’d book here again in a heartbeat and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Nassau.
Our flight got canceled last minute, so we had to book a room on short notice—luckily, the staff went above and beyond to make our stay stress-free. They helped us find a late-night dining spot after the airline delay and even gave great tips on how to enjoy the area while waiting for our next flight. The front desk was super helpful with arranging airport transfers too. The only downside? The on-site restaurants closed earlier than expected, which was a bummer. But honestly, the amazing service and warm hospitality completely made up for it. If you’re ever stuck in a travel hiccup, this place is a true lifesaver.
I only stayed overnight due to flight delays, so I didn’t get much time to explore the place—but that short visit was still impressive. The apartment is clean, well-maintained, and feels like a cozy home away from home. What really stood out was the host—extremely welcoming and helpful with any request, from local tips to check-in details. Their genuine hospitality made the whole experience feel personal and warm. Even though my stay was brief, I’ve already added this guesthouse to my list for future trips to Nassau. If you’re looking for a reliable, friendly, and comfortable spot near the beach, this is definitely worth considering.
Staying at El Greco Hotel was an absolute highlight of our trip to the Bahamas. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome—friendly, attentive, and genuinely caring. Our room was spotless and beautifully appointed, with a stunning balcony overlooking Junkanoo Beach. We loved waking up to that view and spending evenings relaxing out there. The location couldn’t be better—just a short walk to Arawak Cay for dining and nightlife, and close to downtown too. Everything we needed was within reach. This wasn’t just a stay—it felt like a home away from home. I’d book this hotel again in a heartbeat and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Nassau.
The Rosewood Baha Mar is an absolutely stunning property with top-notch service and a luxurious vibe throughout. The pool area is one of the highlights—spacious, beautifully designed, and surprisingly quiet with very few guests around, making it perfect for relaxing. The beach is decent, though nothing extraordinary—good for lounging and enjoying the ocean breeze. That said, the spa experience was underwhelming. There were no showers, sauna, or hot tub available on-site, which felt like a missed opportunity given the resort’s high-end positioning. However, I was able to use the neighboring Hyatt’s facilities for the day with no extra charge, though it required a short walk. Still, it’s a helpful perk. Overall, this hotel delivers on elegance, comfort, and atmosphere. With its prime location and exceptional staff, it’s definitely worth considering if you’re looking for a refined Bahamian getaway.
