Grand Lucayan Breakers Cay: Great all inclusive resort!

Our family really had a great visit at this resort (early Jan, 2014). It was our 1st time in the Bahamas so we weren't sure what to expect. We went on an all inclusive package which I would strongly recommend as food and drink is quite expensive if you are on an accommodation package only. For whatever reason when we arrived the volume at the resort was not high so the hotel voluntary upgraded our accommodation to one of the Lanai Suites. Having previously stayed in several Cuban and Mexican res [... read more]orts we can say that these were easily the nicest hotel or resort rooms we've ever stayed at on a package vacation - two spacious and beautiful jointed rooms, two baths, two TVs, chairs, safe, vanity areas, a/c, etc and best of all a sliding patio door that opened to our own little beach front patio with the ocean steps beyond and the sound of waves to lull us to sleep. There are plenty of tours and trips to go on. The beach sand is clean and of excellent castle building quality for the kids. A car rental is a good idea and is a great way to get around the island and visit the sites such as the Lucayan National Park and Dead Man's Reef were the snorkeling is simply out of this world! The food at the hotel's various restaurants was always excellent, and we always found the staff and the islands people in general to be very friendly and helpful. We have great memories of the place and hope to return some time in the future. All in all we were pleasantly surprised at how much we enjoyed our trip to the Bahamas (despite dodgy weather at the time) and this we would say in great part is because of the resort itself. Note: we did not stay in the main hotel building so we can't comment on the accommodation there directly - but all of our review regarding the resort, staff, food and activities is still relevant. Highly recommended by this Canadian family.

Riu Palace Paradise Island: Friendly, beautiful resort! Great staff!

We went for 3 nights in Feburary at RIU Paradise Island, and it was perfect. The food was mind-blowing. The beach gorgeous. Location was so safe and easy to navigate from. I would love to go again and probably will in the future. The staff was wonderful. The stingrays swimming up and down the beach out front out last day was an awesome surprise too!

Breezes Bahamas: Breezes Bahamas just fine

I have been to Breezes twice. Its not 5 star but it is a great getaway if you are not stuck on new fancy rooms. I went each time when the price was a steal and I will go again when I see a great deal..if its some beach and a getaway you want its great, if its 5 star rooms you want don't.

Riu Palace Paradise Island: Kick back and just relax

LOVE this location, this is my fourth time vacationing here. Food is fantastic, staff always ready to help and professional, very clean and the beach is stunning. Great getaway to rest and relax without a worry.
