2 Star Hotels in Nassau, Bahamas

If you're expecting a luxury resort, this isn't it. This is nothing more than an older, worn down hotel. The plumbing in our bathroom was evidence of that- the shower stopper was stuck on, and the sink drain was stuck closed, although they were quickly resolved with a request to the front desk. The walls were paper thin. If you want an all-inclusive option, though, the food and drinks were better than expected, especially at the Captain's Table (buffet.) If you want to eat at the Harbor View restaurant, make your reservations EARLY at the Captain's Table breakfast or lunch. If you get a late reservation (9 or 9:30), show up an hour early and you're likely to be seated. The biggest disappointment here was for Christmas dinner. The waiter had no idea how to take an order for or serve a 4-course meal. And they ran out of dessert.

We was able to walk to most places. Only suggestion is that we found ourself requesting items that should have been already available. Ie wash cloths, iron, remote to the tv. Etc. with all these request they made sure received it.

If you are looking for a Bahamian experience, and really wish to see what the culture is about, stay at this place! I chose it because lets face it, if I wanted to stay in a hotel that reminded me of Vegas, I'd go to Vegas. I go to the Bahamas to meet the people and explore their culture. The staff here was amazing! I wasn't just another tourist face that they had to put up with, which is what you tend to get in the super expensive hotels. They treated me like family, making sure I had anything and everything I needed, getting me rides to and from places, making reservations at Stuart Cove's dive shop, recommending places to see and always asked how I was doing. I could walk up to the Villas from getting off the shuttle/ jitney and immediately was greeted with smiles and asked how my adventures were going. For the price you pay, you don't feel tied down to a hotel room just because you are spending loads of money on it each night. You feel guilt free to roam around the island and enjoy yourself, then come back and relax at home, instead of feeling like you should be getting your monies worth out of a hotel your spending a fortune to stay at.The beach is not even a one minute walk from your room. You see it from the balcony. The villas have a small kitchen, with burner, microwave, refrigerator, and small electric tea pot. If you need a car, you can rent one from the hotel for $50 a day if you don't want to rent one for the whole time you are there. If not, they will call the jitney (bus) to come pick you up and that is only $2. Its off the beaten path, so you will need a ride to get to the downtown area. But its SO worth it. I felt so at home and so relaxed while I stayed here that, when I go again, I'm definitely staying here. And I know they will have even more surprises for me next time, as they started to remodel certain aspects of the Villas while I was there! LOVE THIS PLACE!
