Lovely hotel- great staff ( Christopher,Fay,Katerina,Joel and Maleka) - small and clean beach- recommend cappuccino with oa**eal at the coffee shop-
However if like us you like to sleep with the windows open you may be disturbed by the noise from nearby nightclubs and overnighting cruise ships
Long story short,highly recommend

Most of the time the pool or other parts of the property was shutdown for photography shot for the advertisement. Which we all had to wait to use. Also i emailed the hotel a few times to set up a Proposal engagement for my girlfriend. Which i didnt hear back from the hotel to do something special for my Fiance. I did reach out to the hotel in person to do something special, and I wanted to do it on a certain date. They got back to me too late. With no help with the hotels email i was pretty pissed. Which kind of made my experience at the hotel feel i was not welcomed, and they only cared about thier advertisement. All the outdoor chairs were cover with cigarette stains, and they were not cleaned. We couldnt find a clean outdoor place to sit. Only the pool chairs where cleaned. The walls in the rooms where so thin that you can hear your neighbors. When we checked in the room, we noticed they had two Compliary waters. One water bottle was opened and dranked out of. I did speak to someone at the front desk about the water bottles. They front desk did say they will come by and replace the water. Nobody showed up and we had to go back to the front desk and talk to them about it a second time, they did replace after the second complaint. The small refrigerator was unplugged when we got to the room, and we found out why it was unplugged. When we plug the refrigerator on, the refrigerator made so much noise and was very loud and we couldnt let us sleep.

The property is beautiful, loved it. But I didn’t like our room , no view and it faced a alley , garbage dumpster and rats were running around the dumpster, we requested to move to another room and they never got back to us .

Historic hotel centrally located downtown close to the cruise ship terminal. Nice private beach and pool area. Included breakfast buffet offered good selection of items including made-to-order omelettes. The menu offerings in the tavern restaurant were quite good and reasonably priced considering how expensive restaurants in the Bahamas are generally.

everything would of been great if the initial room did not have a fish smell and the ac was not malfunctioning. After several complaints the manger Jeremy was able to help out with moving us to a different room.

Second time I stayed at this location in one month staff are very friendly and are available for any requests. From Fay and Anwar at the door, the ladies at front desk are always smiling and David and his crew in the restaurant. Omar and Raymond at the bar in the evening serving up some delicious drinks even though I only drink campari and orange juice. Thanks guys for another amazing weekend
