We always spend a day or two here on our way to Eluthera. Very comfortable, friendly and helpful staff, great view of the ocean from the balcony restaurant, and it's close to airport.

Our room was beautiful, lovely wooden floor and a huge balcony. Chris met us on arrival and checked us in and he couldn't have been more heplful to us. We were having difficultly with our phones and he very kindly contacted the driver who was to pick us up the next day for a day trip , to confirm the pick up time. We met Shanique the following day and she was just as kind and helpful.

“The historical style of the building is cool but it needs some work.”
We were greeted very well. We loved lounging around the pool. The proximity to the airport and water were great. I like the historical feel of the builiding

“A Stone's Throw Away - overall great stay”
We loved the location, away from Nassau, but totally accessible via bus or taxi. Beaches close by, Love Beach, Jaws Beach, Johnston's Beach were great for us as we didn't fancy all the fuzz from the 100's of tourist coming off the cruise ships daily. John, Marcy and RJ were all great. They did everything to help and make our stay comfortable. The garden area was great to chill out and the rock pool was so nice to jump in any time of day or night. The terrace overlooking the beach was always clean and accessible, the breakfasts were simple, yet healthy and the Indian food served at the restaurant was great. I would definitely recommend staying there if you don't mind being away from the centre or for a short stopover.

“Perfect stay between connecting flights to other islands.”
Top location for a short stay near the airport (5min taxi ride for 25 Dollar). Very nice manager who upgraded us to a beautiful room during our second stay at the end of our trip. We also liked the Indian food in the evening. Breakfast is included, however there is only a very small breakfast selection.

“Value for money and in a quiet location”
This hotel is full of character, it's very Bahamian. Lovely views over the water (although you are not directly next to the ocean). I'm not sure it's a hotel that you would want to stay for two weeks but for a short stay/layover it's very good value for money and the staff are all charming.

Great location for 1 night stay before flying out to Eleuthera. Rustic accommodation..with a lot of steps to the reception.

“Came as a stranger, left as a friend.”
Because we missed our connecting flight, we booked at very short notice. The staff was extremely friendly and we received a warm welcome. The proximity to the airport is not noticeable.

“A hotel in a traditional Bahamian style - lots of character”
The property has lots of character - unlike the larger hotels in Nassau. It’s not a luxury hotel but it’s comfortable. The rooms are spacious. We had a room overlooking the garden but in fact because the hotel is on a hill we had far reaching views over the residential areas of Nassau which was lovely. We could see the airport in the distance but we couldn’t hear the planes. We would definitely book again.
