The hotel is beautiful and all of the staff are very friendly. The location is perfect for exploring Nassau by foot. There are lots of restaurants and shopping nearby.
I did a solo trip here from Miami and really enjoyed it . The staff was very friendly and helpful . Loved the wings here and the bar inside I had a fantastic martini. The beach is a bit lackluster but access to margaritaville is nice
The room was clean and had all the things needed for a comfortable stay. The staff was always very courteous and ready to help with any request that were made.
