Beautiful Hotel and Great location. I would definitely recommend. I love the private beach and pool area. Only negative thing is that the food and drinks are very pricey and not many kid-friendly items on the menu. Our family enjoyed this hotel so much that we have re-booked.

great potential let down by 2 poor choices.
very beautiful building and very well maintained. The pool is the perfect temperature and the bar is just incredible. Great location too as right in the heart of Nassau so you can easily get to the top attractions and get a proper local meal. The two big issues with this hotel are: 1 they let in people from the cruise ships, so the pool can be totally overrun with people who aren't paying. Second issue was that the internal restaurants are a bit dull and over priced for what they were. Room service especially needs a revamp.

The restoration of the hotel is going to be beautiful when it is completed. We did not like the fact that we were on the first floor with the staff Workers who are working on the hotel and we were the only guest on that floor as well.
