This historic hotel is famous for more than its elegance, stunning colonial architecture and its past as “Fort Nassau”, a hub for pirate activity. As a beloved local landmark, located in a scenic waterfront, the hotel's colonial-style architecture and elegant design offers a nod to the past while providing modern amenities and comfort. With two sparkling freshwater pools, relax on partially submerged chaise lounges before heading to one of the vibrant bars or restaurants for a dinner to remember.

Our stay was average at best. We waited in line to check in and then went to our room. Once we arrived at our room our key was not working.
We went back down to the desk and just stepped up to ask the girl if she could quickly reprogram and she said no you need to go to the back of the line. I’m helping these people.

So that was a process just getting into our room
The air conditioner sounds like a helicopter is landing on the room the bathroom mirror which has a light built-in was not working so we had to get ready in the dark . When we checked in, we asked for two extra pillows after four phone calls and two visits to the front desk and six hours later we finally had two extra pillows.
When we checked out, we asked for an email receipt because they evidently don’t have a printer available at the front desk. We never did getthe emailed receipt.
When we checked out, we mentioned all of these issues and the gentleman checking us out just shook our hand and said I’m sorry . On the plus side this hotel has a great location and great beach.

I visited the Bahamas to conduct a training. I stayed for one night. Check in was speedy. Room was ready and clean. Overall customer service and stay was good. Service at the bar was also good. My morning latte was good and checkout was speedy. I would stay here again.
Great holiday but one or two irritations!

To be fair this hotel deserved a better than average rating but not a very good!

In the middle of our two week stay they ‘forgot’ to service our room two days in a row. Housekeeping were very apologetic but it was an annoyance.
The Mahogany Club restaurant was closed for most of our stay which limited us to the main bar or the Sushi Bar for evening food which was excellent but limited in choice. Unfortunately, due to the proximity to the cruise port most of the local restaurants and bars closed at around 5pm leaving nowhere particularly easy to access beyond the hotel.
On the upside, the room was comfortable and high quality linens and towels.
The bar and restaurant staff were all excellent and very friendly and helpful.
Also the beach staff deserve a mention - always welcoming and willing to help.
When all said and done we had a great holiday but the above niggles are perhaps something that should be addressed

We chose this hotel to celebrate our 26th anniversary. We chose the Premium Room, 1 King Bed, Ocean View for our stay. Once we arrived we realized that the room did not have a couch or a separate sitting area as the pictures from hotels.com (our reference) showed. Called front desk and was told they’d get back to us which they didn’t. To make matters worse, we chose to have our anniversary dinner at on of the restaurants at the property called Mahogany Club. I ordered the chicken breast with potatoes. They gave me two small pieces of chicken breast and a chicken wing I assume to make it look like more chicken breast…
Only positive was that the property was clean and most of the staff was very friendly. Will definitely never visit this property again!!!

The suite was comfortable, beautiful and spacious. Staff was friendly and helpful. This was truly a wonderful stay. The linens were top notch, towels thick and soft, bed was perfect. The location was great and I could walk to lots of interesting places.
