Top Nassau Hotel Reviews
Margaritaville Beach Resort - Nassau
"My partner and I flew over to Nassau to celebrate my birthday. Our stay at Margaritaville was amazing. The front desk staff were very friendly and helpful. They told us about places to go to hang out and even gave us a room upgrade to the 1 bedroom residence suite. 10-10. The view was breathtaking. The staff was readily available for any of our requests and did their best to provide us with any additional accommodations. I will definitely stay with them again."

"Average"
British Colonial - Nassau
"I like the room it was nice but I had to go upstairs which was hard for me with my disability, when I requested a ground floor room I was denied the change without any explanation. The staffing was horrible they didnโt refill the toilettes, towels, and water etc. I love the scenery of the property and the poolsides I really enjoyed it although the staff was very rude when asking questions about anything. Only one male supervisor was nice he assisted me up the stairs and helped me with my suitcases coming downstairs"
Grand Hyatt Baha Mar

The Sunset Stay BnB
"Good location. Parking is next door to the property. The rooms are always clean. Iโve stayed here multiple times and itโs always exactly what I need- safe, good location, close to the airport, quiet, well priced."
Sandyport Beach Resort
"Even though you can tell the property is older, the room we had was perfect! We had a full kitchen with a separate bedroom and two bathrooms. Our room was spotless and when housekeeping came through they cleaned up well. The bed was really confortable. The shower is small though. All of the staff were really friendly and helpful. The pools were decent, especially the one with the two slides for the kids. There are a few places to eat closeby, they are walkable."
Sandals Royal Bahamian - ALL INCLUSIVE Adults Only
"We enjoyed our stay and the staff was incredible. The food was 10/10. The only thing I would change would be for easy food like burgers or chicken strips."
