Riu Palace Paradise Island: Best resort!

This hotel was amazing! From the food and drinks, to the gorgeous hotel and amazing staff. This is my 4th time to this resort and will keep coming back every year. Thank you again trip central for always making booking so easy and always keep us posted on updates. Thank you Riu Palace Paradise Island for the amazing memories

Riu Palace Paradise Island: Rui Excellent Adventure

The Rui is a first class hotel. The rooms are well decorated and clean. The restaurants offer a wide range of delicious foods, even in the buffets. The pool area is spacious and clean with a great swim up bar overlooking the beach. The beach only steps away has powder soft sand and plenty of space to sit with staff assisting you to get chairs. Overall a excellent experience and great value.

Viva Wyndham Fortuna Beach: Amazing resort, beautiful white powdery beach!

Great family hotel. Not to big very intimate. Food was good, rooms were spacious, grounds well maintained and clean. Great pool area including hot tub, morning yoga, plenty of towels, snack bar. Daytime and nighttime entertainment was very good. Trapèze very popular with tweens and courageous adults. Daycare facility available so parents can snorkel, go kayaking, paddle bord or sailing all part of the inclusive package. For an added fee you can snorkel with turtles, feed pigs, explore caverns  [... read more]and walk the beach were Pirates of the Caribbean was filmed. We Thoroughly enjoyed our vacation and would recommend this hotel.

Viva Wyndham Fortuna Beach: Good holiday

We enjoyed our holiday at Viva Wyndham. We needed time away to unwind and this was just the ticket. The beach is absolutely beautiful, the food was good, the staff were amazing, all so friendly and willing to help in any way possible and the rooms were clean. I would suggest putting hooks on the back of the bathroom door so that we could hang bathing suits to dry etc. Thank you. Everything went so smoothly.

Melia Nassau Beach Resort: Great resirt

Clean rooms with great service. The food was really good and so was the choice of restaurants...the buffet was really well stocked and fresh. Great staff and the ground were kept very tidy. This is an excellent resort for the cost.

Riu Palace Paradise Island: Great Resort

Met the General Manager and he is a great guy. Looks after the resort very well. Staff are nice and place is extremely clean and well run.Jackie (Jacqueline) in main buffet is the biggest asset to the place. All service staff should be trained by her.

Riu Palace Paradise Island: Comfortable friendly resort

Our Room was beautiful. Nice view of the beach. Food choice and quality was good. Service was excellent and very friendly. Drinks were strong and tasty. They kept the buffet open for our late evening arrival and opened it early for our early morning departure.

Sandals Royal Bahamian: Fantastic food, diving

- Private Island is super unique and fantastic - food is absolutely fantastic - diving is completely included and was really good. - rooms are lovely and fully stocked with alcohol - pools and hot tubs are wonderful but can be a little chilly

Viva Wyndham Fortuna Beach: Great family trip

Overall, we enjoyed our trip to Viva Wyndham. The staff was very friendly and the ammeneties were great. Our room was just okay. The beds were comfortable but the room lacked cleanliness. The food at the hotel was average. It was great that the hotel used reusable cups for their drinks.

Viva Wyndham Fortuna Beach: Okay resort with amazing amenities

The hotel is situated on a beautiful waterfront with great amenities and activities at your disposal. If you are like us and care more about the experience than the quality of food and hotel room, this resort is a jewel. You will not spend a dull moment on the grounds, or the island. Would highly recommend.

Riu Palace Paradise Island: Amazing Beach

Hotel is at a great location on public Cabbage Beach, but it does get busy both from hotel users and locals (who walk the beach selling stuff). The Beach has beautiful soft sand, is cleaned every day and the ocean is so clear. Next door to Atlantis Resort. Easy to do a day trip downtown via Ferry 10 min walk away. Hotel rooms have a fusty smell but ok if you aren't in your room much. Food was good but hard to get a reservation for steakhouse unless you line up early in advance of it openin [... read more]g.

Riu Palace Paradise Island: Beautiful resort

4 day stay, Thursday-Sunday, hotel was very clean, beach was spectacular, but wished you didn’t have to line up 1 hour before making reservations for the specialty restaurants. Room was beautiful (ocean front) but the pillows were horrible. Second time coming to this resort and will definitely return. Food at buffet was very good, not always hot as usual at a buffet.

Riu Palace Paradise Island: Go somewhere else...

We went to a Riu resort in Aruba in September of 2019 and absolutely loved everything about it, service, food absolutely amazing. When booking Bahamas, we thought, its a Riu will be amazing! Especially considering price. Nope. We had a late flight with Sunwing, arrived at the hotel Sunday, February 9th around 11:30 pm. Our flight back home was the following Sunday at 9:45PM. When we got to the hotel we were told late check out was on first come first serve basis. On Tuesday morning we asked  [... read more]about late check-out, we were told "Sorry nothing is available"..we asked again every day and got the same robotic response, all the while, we met another couple who got late checkout for 2PM vs 12PM only because they had a complaint every single day about service, cleanliness and other issues. After lots of complaining the resort gave them a 5PM checkout and we actually used their room to shower before leaving for our flight. The frustrating part about this is that there was no way the resort was full, they simply chose to not provide late check out to their guests and Sunwing is also to blame for not making these arrangements to begin with knowing that guests have a late flight. They expect you to check out at noon and then what? Go to the beach and get on a plane full of sand and sunscreen? Or the alternative is to waste the day lying around in which case you're better off with an early flight anyway! We expressed our concern to the Sunwing rep at the resort, they did not give a s**t. The hotel also mentioned our luggage would be locked in a room and we would have access during the day, well the luggages were out in the lobby anyone could go and say oh yeah that's my luggage and then gone! Moving along, the food at the buffet, let's just say I ate better in Cuba than here. There is no variety, every single day you're presented with the same dishes, rice, some kind of meat stew, pizza, bruschetta, burgers and hot dogs. There are no live pasta stations or grill stations like other resorts, this was a first for me, I've been to about 10 different resorts and they ALL provide grilling and pasta stations or some sort of daily dish that is the "feature" for that day. The jerk chicken they make by the pool was the best option, but you get sick of it, because again, same thing every single day. I am not a picky eater at all but the food was really really disappointing. The A La Cartes are a freaking disaster. They don't take reservations. People line up for the Steak house at 4:45/5pm!!!!!! They open at 6PM! Now here's the fun part. We managed to get a spot for the Steak house one of the days, actually happened to be Valentines Day, and while we were in there, we saw multiple people get turned down. The restaurant was literally half empty so we thought maybe there's guests with buzzers waiting to get called down. Didn't happen. We had dinner and left and the restaurant remained half empty (we got there for dinner at 7:30 pm). They turned people who wanted to enjoy a nice dinner away just because, saying "Sorry we're fully booked", meanwhile the place is empty, what the hell??? Entertainment at this resort is by far the worst I've ever seen. The Michael Jackson show had people leaving 10 minutes in. No offence to the performers/staff but 1) he looked nothing like Michael Jackson, which in comparison to other resorts was "interesting" and 2) he could not dance...they had a different guy come on stage to do the moonwalk to "Billie Jean"...Another night they had what they called a "White Party"...well nobody was wearing white because 1) it was not advertised and 2) it was INDOORS! All white parties I've been to in resorts are always either on the beach or by the pool. So yeah there was maybe 10 people wearing white and also it was not a party, nobody was dancing except for the entertainers, everyone was just at the bar and most people leave to go to the Atlantis, which is the only good thing about staying at this resort as you're a 5 minute walk from that amazing resort. After the "show" there is literally nothing to do at the resort so we would always walk over to the casino at Atlantis and tour around there and the premises. Staff - most of them are nice people I didn't really have any terrible experience, but not an exceptional one either. However, one of the couples that flew back with us went to breakfast at the buffet one morning, asked a lady for cutlery for their table, she pointed over at a different table and said "there's some there, get it yourself"...WOW! Talk about the audacity. This is the same couple that was awarded with the late check out, they really had a terrible experience this is just one of the things that happened to them. Another couple we met, also went for breakfast and asked to be seated outside in the small patio. One of the servers said, "Sorry we don't have enough staff to clean a table outside right now"...I was literally astonished. Beach - the beach is beautiful and water is amazing, however it does get rough, the first and last day we were there it was a red flag but other days was really nice its crystal clear, and very clean. I loved the Bahamas, but I absolutely disliked and was extremely disappointed with my experience at the Riu. I will not be returning to this resort. We met at least 20 other people coming back on the same flight as us that had the same and worst complaints, every person expressing their disappointment towards the hotel. When you pay so much money to be somewhere and get this kind of service, its really frustrating. And shame on Riu for not caring enough to make their guests experience more enjoyable. I would go back to the Bahamas, but surely would not stay here.

Viva Wyndham Fortuna Beach: Wonderful Vacation

The hotel rooms were nothing special, rather dated. But the dining area was rather nice, the food was excellent, and the staff was amazing! The beach was perfect, large and lengthy, you could walk for miles in the lovely white sand. The specialty restaurants had great food, but the meal at the Viva café was to die for. Every succulent mouthful was unbelievable! The entertainment was different than anything we’ve experienced in any other resort, it was actually entertaining, with comedy ski [... read more]ts one night and a musical review another night. The entertainment staff made it a point to meet almost every individual staying at the resort, remembering most by name, and invited people to join them throughout the day in all of the activities, like water aerobics, etc. In the end, it felt like one big happy family.

Viva Wyndham Fortuna Beach: Great Resort and Great Staff

We stayed at this resort from Feb 8th to Feb 15th. We enjoyed our stay a lot. The staff were very friendly and make an effort to get to know you. Also, the resort is great for families as they do many activities for kids as well as adults. Also, the food is good, the beach is beautiful and very clean however the water is very rocky so make sure you wear water shoes when you swim.

Melia Nassau Beach Resort: Relaxing family vacation!

Our family spent one week here in February and had a great time! The beach was beautiful! We really enjoyed taking long walks down it. The food was great at the buffet, many different choices, so the kids always ate well. The pool area was great for the kids! The staff was helpful and friendly. Only downfalls about the resort would be having to ask for water and mini fridge restocking. Most days they forgot to do our room. Our room was a walk out on the main floor. It was spacious enough for us, [... read more] even with the cot between the two beds. It was however, very dated. Pretty sure it was the original hotel. They should renovate this area. Definitely get rid of the carpet in the hallways! All and all, a great vacation. Close bus ride to the airport, downtown area and even paradise island. We will visit again!

Viva Wyndham Fortuna Beach: Great Resort with Amazing Staff

Overall, we loved our stay at the Viva Wynhdam, it is the ideal resort for families. They do great activities for adults and kids, thw resort is small, so makes it easier to walk around and get to know people. The entertainers at the resort and the staff was awesome. The food was good, was a little repetitive with not much options, but it was good. The only downside to the hotel is the fact that you can only check in for 3 PM, for someone that gets there around 11 AM with kids, that is not ideal [... read more]. But besides that we enjoyed our stay and we highly recommend this trip destination.
