Nice & clean, staff very friendly. We were aware that there was a charge for hotel tax but not aware this hotel is “Cash Free”. We had an 11yr. old with us, could have been helpful if they could have had unlimited beverages for free. Very expensive island!

The resort was beautiful, very well maintained. We stayed on the condo side, bedroom was immaculate, and view was spectacular. Only bad thing were the noisy seagulls in the morning and evening, but nothing too disrupting, just annoying. Food was delicious but extremely expensive and overpriced, especially the alcohol. $20 USD per alcohol beverage and hardly any booze! Our bartender we found at the S.O.S bar was amazing!! Water park was fun, and got to enjoy some kayaking. I highly recommend Senior Frogs (just on the other side of the condo side, easy access through boardwalk door with your wristband). Great food, spicy margaritas delicious, lunchtime party a blast! Full of cruise ship people, fun times. Great shops on Bay St. Shops further away from the cruise port, cheaper the prices! One negative thing about the hotel staff - they were pleasant but lacked the energy and upbeat personalities that I’ve seen on all inclusive resorts in Cuba and Jamaica. Restaurant service was slow, energy average. We went on the half-day excursion to Rose Island Swimming with the Pigs. I DO NOT recommend. Waste of money, didn’t even get to swim with the pigs as the shoreline was eroded. We did get to interact with the pigs for a little bit of time in the water as the staff fed them and coached them into the water, also got to bottle feed and take lots of pictures but not what I had expected or paid for. We were not told this upon booking the day trip. Was rushed through the day (due to a storm coming). Was left alone for an hour or so while the staff cleaned, organized. Had to load/unload boat with a step stool while the boat rocked in the waves, and had to climb up a few rocks to get off beach to mainland. Not recommended for people with knee or hip issues. Wooden beach chairs were extremely uncomfortable. Taxi to/from excursions was not included, had to pay extra there. Not much of a nightlife, nor were there any shows or any type of entertainment. We did stay Tues-Fri which could have played a factor but no entertainment is a big negative for me. At least all inclusive resorts had a DJ or music after dinner. Beach and water were beautiful. And our taxi driver Slim was amazing!! I would rate our stay 5/5 for scenery but the prices & service bring it down to 3/5. I enjoyed our stay but was ready to go home after 3 days. Bahamas checklist item checked but would not go back to this resort.
