This trip was accidentally booked to Bermuda and we are visiting the Bahamas. I am still waiting to see if they will issue a refund. It's a shame that I am being penalized for an error made unknowingly. We never used their accommodations so it's pretty upsetting that I'd have to pay almost $500 for an unoccupied room.

Beautiful and pristine location with super friendly and nice staff made this a superb experience. Loved the fact that even at what seemed to be a peak season, the number of people was minimum giving at times the impression that you had the place for your family only. We will definitely return.

We loved the secluded nature of this resort. It was rare to see more than 10-15 people on the beach or in the water at any given time, and plenty of hours when we had the beach to ourselves. Activities like kayaking, snorkeling, paddleboarding, and biking were free, with complimentary rental of helmets, paddles, life vests, and snorkel masks/fins. There were other tours and activities available for a fee. What you can't see from the photos is the excellent snorkeling available and the unparalleled glimpse you'll get of the Milky Way each night. I count both experiences among the best of my life. Our villa was spacious, comfortable, and everything (from furnishings to fixtures) looked like new. We enjoyed cooking in our villa kitchen, making our own frosty beverages, and watching Netflix/Amazon Prime Video each night. The resort makes their own drinking water, and there are small markets and cafes on the island if you want to eat in your villa/bungalow or away from the resort. While we were there, many fish/seafood dishes on the menu were not available, but this is typical on islands that depend on local catches and imported goods. Every dish we enjoyed was delicious and well-made. For those who are prone to mosquito bites (early in the morning and sunset/night), the resort provides insect repellent.

Wow was the first word followed by simple disbelief when so first saw the beach. The photos do not even do it justice. The hotel itself is simple, but each room features beach views and when the beach is that stunning you don't need much else. The hotel also offers many activities and tours. It is perfect for those who are looking for a low key, relaxing holiday, away from the hustle and bustle of Nassau. Lastly, the staff were just incredible and we shared many laughs. A home away from home. We will be back.

first the good stuff: amazing views, perfect beaches, intimate vibes, friendly other guests after that: service is below average, attitude from the waiters. villas are clean but could use an upgrade. biggest issue is the food. there are no other restaurants on the island so you will be captive to a limited menu with very high prices (plus mandatory 15% tip and 12% vat). everything is over cooked (i.e. well done) presumably because it's not fresh
