Warwick Paradise Island: Beautiful Place to stay!

We had booked a 4 night stay however we extended our trip! The resort was beautiful! The service was great! The food was excellent! It was very clean, and well kept! We will definitely go back next year!

Riu Palace Paradise Island: Stay away - definitely not a 4-star resort. Especially if you’re not white.

The service at this resort was by far the worst I’ve ever experienced and I’ve been to many resorts. Most of the staff acted like they didn’t want to be there. There were some staff members that were lovely but enough of the rude ones that effectively ruined the entire experience for us. We were constantly met with an attitude as if they were doing us a favour and that we were annoying them with our presence. The first interaction that left us scratching our heads was after we got to o [... read more]ur room. There was a hole near the lock so we decided to ask the front desk if we can switch rooms. The man we spoke to was extremely rude and acted as if we were a huge inconvenience to him. My friend and I were nothing but polite and friendly. When I reminded him that we needed a room with two beds, he acted exasperated and said “Ok…Only if there is something available. If there isn’t, then…” then had his arms out and just looked at me. I was so surprised because it felt like he expected us to leave. I had to ask “Ok, can you please check for us?” He sighed again and then went back to his computer. We were able to switch rooms but were so shocked with that encounter. I’ve never even been treated like that at a McDonald’s, let alone a so-called 4-star resort. We were very confused as to why we were being treated this way. Regardless of the poor service and horrible attitude, we still tipped them. However, they would often take the tip without even looking at us. We were definitely not seeking a huge gesture of gratitude but a quick “thanks” or smile would have been common decency. No luck here. My friend and I were the only two Asians there but we really didn’t want to jump to conclusions as to why we were being treated this way. However this following incident made it hard to ignore. My friend was waiting at the bar near the pool for quite some time but was ignored. It wasn’t busy but the lady behind the bar (Naztada?Maztada? I couldn’t see her name tag well) pretended she didn’t see him. Then a white man walked up and she immediately took his order with a smile. This was honestly so upsetting to experience. Not everyone was rude, there were some lovely staff members (e.g the lady performing the PCR test and the a la carte waiters). But the majority of them were so awful to us that it left a terrible taste in our mouths. The food was mediocre and the resort was very small. The only good thing was the beautiful beach. Stay at the Warwick instead or splurge for Atlantis or Baha Mar. Anywhere but Riu. We will not be coming back ever.

Riu Palace Paradise Island: Our favourite for short getaways

This was our sixth stay at this hotel, always 4 days/3 nights. The hotel is perfect for a short getaway - not too far from the airport (and the flight is relatively short for a warm destination), not spread out so you don't waste your time roaming the grounds but go straight to the beach. Also, all the rooms have ocean view albeit a side view but still. It's nice to sleep with an open balcony to the sound of the ocean. Most of the staff were fantastic with rare exceptions. One of the sinks in [... read more] our room was clogged when we moved in and this was promptly rectified after we called reception. We both agree that the food was better than the last time we visited two years ago. The variety is impressive. We even had our favourite octopus three times over four days. Fantastic quacamole with warm tortilla chips - yumm! We never bothered with a la carte restaurants as we don't want to waste our time waiting and have always been satisfied with the food at the buffet. We were mostly satisfied with the measures implemented by the hotel related to COVID-19. The masks are mandatory everywhere inside and at the outside bar and it is mostly enforced. The only problem, and it's quite a serious one, was that only two of the three elevators were operational and most of the times they were full, well over 4 persons limit. Thankfully, we were on the 4th floor and used the stairs most of the times. I don't know why they cannot fix the elevator. I know that it had been broken even before we arrived judging by the reviews. For Canadians - book your PCR test in advance using the app (you can scan QR code at the reception). Another negative thing and it's not the hotel but Sunwing's fault is that the bus to take people to the airport on Sunday is arranged for a ridiculously early time of 6 PM - for a 10:50 PM flight. It's a 25 minute ride to the airport. All people were outraged and lots of them including us took taxis. I remember that two years ago it was a 7 PM pickup. Still, overall we are happy with our short little getaway and would return. The beach, of course, is amazing - one of the most beautiful we've been to.

Riu Palace Paradise Island: Awesome trip

Amazing amazing resort- clean, very covid safe (masking/hand sanitizing was maintained and they have PCR tests at the hotel), staff was so friendly and attentive- this was exactly what I needed for a quick last minute vacation. Beach is beautiful, pool area is immaculate, food was good… cannot wait to go back.

Breezes Bahamas: Great Time

The resort was on the old side but the staff was very good. The meals were great with lots of variety. The staff treated everyone wonderfully. We felt very safe with Covid as the staff is tested weekly all safety measures were met. Larry and Devon were great on the Entertainment and activities. I will be definitely returning for another stay.

Riu Palace Paradise Island: Boring hotel

Hotel needs better service, more elevators, a gift shop would be nice, needs entertainment and more variety of food. Rooms were nice and clean. Beds were uncomfortable and pillows need to be replaced. .

Warwick Paradise Island: Amazing friendly staff!!!!

I had a great time! I did find however the resort to be much small then anticipated. The night light life on the resort wasn't what I expected at all, they had more of a game night feel rather then a clube scene for the adults. However, the staff there were amazing. So helpful, engaging in conversations and going above and beyond to help in anyway to make your experience there a memorable one.

Viva Wyndham Fortuna Beach: Amazing resort!

We were very happy to have stayed in this resort, despite the fact that there were lots of guys for the march break. Luckily we have always been guaranteed priority without lines. Fantastic and well equipped beach Clean rooms but small bathrooms Good food Entertainment TOP

Viva Wyndham Fortuna Beach: Caught by Surprise

Do Not Go To This Resort last week of February or first 3 weeks in March. At no point during the booking process was it disclosed that over 800 Spring Break Students from the states would be there it was chaos! Staff did what they could to accommodate and we have teenagers so we managed but it was a complete drunk fest and line ups for the bar and food. SunWing said we were told however they are hanging their hat on the communication that was sent out after we paid for our tickets. When we chall [... read more]enged them all they offered was $100 vouchers! Nice beach and clean hotel and friendly staff but SunWing does this year after year to fill the rooms. They need to be held accountable for tricking people who save all year to take their family on vacation and walk into the environment we dealt with for a week.

Riu Palace Paradise Island: Really amazing resort

Hotel nicely appointed with comfortable furniture throughout all areas, fantastic large beach, fun infinity pool bar and adequate lounging/exercise main pool area. Super friendly helpful staff everywhere. Food and drinks are 4 star+ Entertainment could be stronger

Riu Palace Paradise Island: Great resort

Great location , beautiful beach .Staff is very friendly and helpful .The food is great with the various restaurants Joyces . Recommend this location to anybody for a relaxing week of R&R . For the first time in the Bahamas we were impressed with the clean surroundings in Nassau and in general a clean city .

Riu Palace Paradise Island: Great Value!

The resort offered great value for the price we paid. I believe all room have ocean view. Food was much better than I expected. We ate at an a-la-carte restaurant for the 4 evenings we were there. Breakfast and lunch buffet provide ample options. Drinks were good. Beach was excellent. Clean sand and crystal clear water. Beware, it does get windy on this island and 2 of the 4 days you were not able to go in the water. Your neighboring Atlantis if you would like to gamble or go for a star bucks  [... read more]coffee. Overall good resort.

Melia Nassau Beach Resort: Review of Melia Nassau

The hotel & property on the whole were quite good - lots of different places to swim, relax etc. The beach & its facilities were fine. The food however, left something to be desired, primarily because most of it was never hot. Cold scrambled eggs first thing in the morning are a dreadful way to begin your day! The smoothies for breakfast were lovely, on the other hand. My greatest criticism lies in the appearance of a gazzilion college students who showed up in spring break! We really wer [... read more]e upset. We would have easily come another week. Why were we not told this at the time of booking?

Riu Palace Paradise Island: Great Resort

This hotel is very welcoming, friendly staff all around the resort. Visited between March 1st-5th-2020 The Resort offers great views of the Ocean from any room with a pool view. We were located on the 3rd floor overlooking the pool and the Ocean. The elevator was directly across the hall from our room, surprisingly we didn't hear anybody while in our room waiting for the elevator. In fact we heard more noise coming from the balcony. In our room we had a mini fridge which was topped up ev [... read more]ery day. Beer, pop & water also 4 varieties of liquor. We also had room service available 24/7, mostly sandwiches with potato chips(plain). Also, in our room we had a $25 US voucher for the casino at Atlantis among other coupons. (Although the catch was you had to spend $25 US to receive the voucher). The food was Delicious at the international Buffets numerous options available. The A La Carte's are based on a first come first serve basis (no reservations). Didn't bother with the Spa or Fitness centers. Beach is beautiful with a short walk to the Atlantis resort. Overall everything this Resort has to offer is less than a 5 minute walk, to our room, pool, buffets or A La Carte's, beach, bar, & disco, lobby. I spent more time at the coffee bar as they had a variety of desserts and sandwiches & coffee was delicious among my favorites in the Caribbean. We also booked a city tour through Sunwing. We had a blast visiting a variety of destinations ex: Fish markets/docks, straw market, rhum distillery, rhum cake factory and forts. We stopped for lunch at a local restaurant known as "Da Fish Fry" a highly recommend local dish in the Bahamas was the Conch Salad or Conch burger.

Riu Palace Paradise Island: Riu Palace - excellent!

First time to the Bahamas - first time to a Riu hotel. The grounds, rooms, employees, and especially the food was first rate!! Cannot think of a single complaint in 7 days of being there. I would have no hesitation to go there again, and would definitely recommend the hotel to any friends thinking of going to the Bahamas

Riu Palace Paradise Island: Nice Resort/ Did not get what we paid for

Paid for an upgraded superior suite, a couple of family members went with a Jr. Suite, ended up their suite was identical to ours with a better view & for considerably less money. In speaking with RIU Management, they suggested that this was an error on behalf of our travel agent. Also paid $240.00 for Premium Elite Plus Service; family members paid $200.00 & were given the exact same privileges including the $50.00 rebate per person if they filled out a questionnaire.

Riu Palace Paradise Island: First time back since the renovation. Very clean. Food was great. Resort service was very good.

The only downfall that the six of us found was that the restaurants in the resort was too loud and noisy. Something should be done to reduce the noise level. I literally had to put ear plugs in my ears in two of the restaurants.

Melia Nassau Beach Resort: Had a great time

It was an amazing 4 days trip to Melia resort. Every staff member were not only courteous but very helpful and friendly. Rooms were very clean, all the amenities and services were flawless. All the restaurants were great specially the market place. The pools were clean and were great for kids and all family members. The beach were clean and spectacular to swim or for walk. I will definitely will come again and will highly recommend to my friends and family. Thank you for such a great experience.

Breezes Bahamas: Breezes Nassau

Resort: Clean and provided all the necessary amenities. Nothing fancy Restaurants: Buffet - Good but nothing special. The setup wasn't done very well. There is only one line to get food. This caused large wait times. A La Cartes: Very good Beach Restaurant: Very good Bars: Only one bar is open during the day. Huge lineups. But servers did their best to furnish. Nightly bars: Lobby - Good Piano Bar: Good Beach: Bad weather caused a week of red flag. Wasn't very nice. Can't re [... read more]ally give a proper review. Service: Excellent, this is what makes the resort standout. Everyone tries hard to please the guests. No complaints here. Rooms: Good, provided a clean place to wash and sleep. Overall: Weather didn't help make this a memorable trip but there were many repeat customers so I guess this speaks for itself. As for us, it was decent, provided the necessary relax time but we will not be returning. Not because we didn't like it only because we have been to other destinations that we prefer.

Melia Nassau Beach Resort: Above Standard

The Melia Nassau was as advertised and more. Not only did they deliver on food quality, white sandy beach, numerous pools and prompt courteous service it was all meticulously clean and staffed by courteous friendly and efficient people who took time to talk to us personally. The restaurants on site continued the wonderful service and friendliness and the food served was outstanding for a four star resort. We supplemented our experience at the Melia by touring the Atlantis and the three great pr [... read more]operties adjacent to the Melia on Cable Beach called Baha Mar. The turtle exhibit and flamingos were absolutely enjoyable and quite unique. We toured the casino and supplemented our dining at Fi Lia restaurant. I recommend the seafood stew. The resort made sure there was lots of towels for beach and pools and that there were plenty of activities planned for all ages.The transfers from and to the airport were smooth and timely. We flew West Jet from Ottawa and despite a weather delay on return airport staff and plane crew couldn’t have been more courteous and helpful. We plan to return next year.
