When we got there the room wasn’t ready;however, the front desk service clerk was very nice and accommodating. She didn’t everything within her power to get us to our room within an hour. The room I stayed in AC was leaking so we had to change rooms in the middle of the night; however, they did allow us a late checkout to compensate.

The location next to a gorgeous beach was great, the property itself was extremely dated. The most disappointing element of the stay was the poor concierge. The woman running the desk was very unhelpful and unknowledgeable about local excursions, bike rentals etc. and No WiFi in the room! Ughh

The pool and slide are awesome but the floor of the pool made it look dirty. Didnt like the tv was static could hardly view and internet service only at restaurant and around pool and lobby and also internet is really slow so people can’t do important work over internet in a timely fashion. Really important to get faster internet and available in rooms for me to come back to resort. Worst RCI resort i have ever been to. If they would update property would be awesome place.

Love this resort! Its a real taste of the Bahamas with the comforts of home. The pool, swim up bar, beach and restaurant are wonderful! A few challenges, for example the collection of kitchen utensils/cookware was random and made cooking a bit of a challenge. But once we asked it was handled quickly by very kind staff. I highly recommend this property!!

I thought this resort was amazing! However, many of the amenities were closed (water sports, ferry) and closed early (6:00 pm). But the staff was so amazing and friendly the entire time!

I aish i knew restaurant and bars were not open except friday and Saturday. Even on those days it was open the hours it said it would be. I went to breakfast Friday at 1020 and they were not serving it anymore. I Lso found out after i was supposed to get a gallon of drinking water which i never got. I think the slide, bar, and restaurant should be open past 6. At least untill 8pm if not later. I did like the lounges and tables on the beach and the hammock by the pool. I also had mosquitoes flying around in my room. Alfie is the best bartender!

This is a clean and lovely property with friendly staff. The lack on internet in the rooms made it challenging to conduct work. During the winter months and in light of no direct flights bringing tourists to the islands currently, the restaurant is closed so there are no options for food or drink (or water) within walking distance. (Tap water on the island has a high saline content.)

Negatives...Lots of repairs needed on roof and some other outside areas. Rooms are in need of upgrading. Mosquitoes in evening were voracious. Would have preferred Bahamian music in restaurant. Positives....friendly staff....especially Lilly in restaurant. Great restaurant food. Great beach. Spacious, well designed rooms. These outweigh any negatives.

Could be realky nice place still fixing up from previous hurricane. Pool excellent. But water slide closes at 4:30 eastern time so kids dont have use of it and the water from slide makes the lazy river flow so no slide no lazy river at 4:30 pm cave bar closes at 6pm so no drinks of any kind. So after bar and slide closes not a lot to do.

The pool area especially the swim up bar is very nice. They don’t clean/tidy up the room when you stay there, there’s an extra fee to request for that. It’s kinda odd if you want new towels in the room, you have to go up to the laundry/housekeeping place and ask for new towels but before you can do that, you have to bring the old ones from your room.
