Pros: Beautiful beaches, friendly people Cons: Don't expect to spend more than 5 wonderful days, there... it's a small island.

Pros: Close to some beautiful islands Cons: Not a real bohemian island
One would expect the capitol of the Bahamas to be the "heart and soul" of the nation. This is not true of Nassau and I do feel bad for those people who only see Nassau and think that that's what the Bahamas are about. Nassau is exactly the...
Pros: inexpensive, clear water beaches and duty free shopping Cons: Island beggers

Pros: Wonderful for Week or Two Cons: Only wonderful for a week or two
I was actually fortunate enough to live in Nassau for a year and, so, was exposed to more than the average tourist. And, so I am able to pass on a bit more advice.
First, keep your wallet close by. What you don't spend, may very well be...
Pros: Regal, Tons of Things To Enjoy Cons: Islands often have water problems

We've been there 5 times, we make it a point to go at least one weekend a year to Royal Bahamian. Lately we've been going more like 2-3 weekends a year! It's a great place that is close to home (for those of us on the East Coast). With a 2 1/2 hour...

Pros: Beautiful island, kind people Cons: You get what you pay for

Pros: Beautiful beaches and water WHEN the weather is good. Cons: Incredibly expensive given the quality of the goods and the service; inconsistent weather in winter

Pros: Shopping - especially Jewelry and Watches Cons: Not what you picture when you close your eyes and think "Paradise"

Pros: Beautiful scenery, fantastic beaches, aqua blue water.
Cons: 3rd world country, panhandling, VERY expensive!!

Pros: Close to US Cons: Expensive, third world feel.
Just returned from a week at Sandals, will not be going back.

Pros: It's nice to see the shopping area. Cons: The straw market can give you the creeps.
We were in Nassau last July. We came in on the Royal Carribbean Sovereign. If you are cruising, you are very close to the downtown area. There are about three or four big cruise ships there about the same time. You can walk to the shops without any ...
Pros: Beautiful water, friendly people, something for every member of your family to do. Cons: Very expensive for food. Not much of a beach, except for the casino tower.

Pros: Island people , beach and water, Cons: overcast days , (may be a blessing from strong sun)
My wife and I went to Sandals in Oct. 05.. The people there are the best. We were treated like royalty. Our 4th floor room overlooked the pool and ocean. A balcony that you could really enjoy! We did beach volleyball, sailing, snorkeling (brought our own) and jet skis. The food was good. I found the fish and chicken to be the best choices.
The beach and water was good. We were hit by a piece of hurricane wilma the monday we were leaving. They had closed the airport due to winds around 40 mph. Sandals gave a complimentary night which we were very pleased with.
The drink were excellent. We had a few breakfasts delivered to the room. Service was excellent. On the weekends they brought in some vendors who had some nice stuff. Overall a good vacation! Also the junk food was good,burgers ,hot dogs, ect.
Pros: Not any! They were glad to sell me an old watch as new. Cons: After many attempts, would neither take nor return my calls.
Buyer beware! I bought an Omega watch from the Solomons's Mines store in Atlantis. I got it home and it didn't work. After many attempts at resolution with Solomons's Mines, I called Omega. The watch was never registered as sold to that store! They said it was a fraudulent sale. Repair showed corroded circuit board and that the watch was not new! Never never never make my mistake and buy expensive anything from them.
