Nassau

Pros: great weather, great food

Cons: Expensive hotels aren't like expensive New York City hotels (quality)

My new husband and I decided to go to Nassau for our honeymoon in the middle of August 1999. We had a great time! We booked an all-inclusive 7-day stay at the Breezes Super Club resort. I highly recommend the all-inclusive route. We met people there who...

Pros: Beautiful Beaches, Great Fun
Cons: Expensive

My husband and I went to the Bahamas and stayed on cable beach. Cable Beach is not as exclusive as the beaches on Paradise Island, but it is a beautiful beach. If you are traveling on a limited budget, you can get a beach front room on Cable Beach for...

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.

My family and I (4 people) just got back from Nassau's Marriott Crystal Palace Resort. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves, in fact it may be one of the best vacations we have ever been on.

We left Cleveland, Ohio on March 26, 2002 with...

Week of Trip - 2/21/04 to 2/28/04 My boyfriend’s birthday falls in the month of February and I decided we should celebrate with a vacation in The Bahamas this year. (Plus, nothing’s really happening here in the dead of winter.) Without really ...

Pros: Beautiful beaches, wonderful architecture, fascinating marine life, delicious rum cakes!

My husband and I just recently returned from staying at the Atlantis Resort on Paradise Island (Jan. 3rd - 7th). The architecture and the beauty of the Atlantis is amazing. We stayed in the Royal Towers which has a breath taking entrance and lobby. When...

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: Many machines to choose.
Cons: No luckier there than any other casino!

One of the best things about Nassau is nearby Paradise Island. It is a beautiful, clean island. But my time there was spent indoors at the Atlantis Resort and Casino. The resort is gorgeous and well known because at one time Merv Griffin owned it. It...

Pros: Beautiful beaches and water, miles of swimming pools
Cons: Drugs, the locals and scams galore

Let me start out by saying my trip to the Bahamas with my husband was the time of my life. Having never gotten away for an exotic weekend without the kids, I soaked up every minute and felt like we we honeymooners again. The cost of the weekend ($3,00...

Pros: Great beach, nice hotels
Cons: things can get expensive if you're not careful

My boyfriend took me to Paradise Island this winter for a long weekend as a surprise present - I couldn't have been more excited. It was exactly what I needed in the middle of the winter - a little sun, some sand - I was so excited on the plane trip down...

Pros: mix of history, beauty, shopping, entertainment, and water
Cons: guides at individual attractions peddle for tips, attractions somewhat spread out, my tour had issues

My first Caribbean cruise stopped in Nassau for about eight hours. That seems sufficient for getting a sense of the place, but the first hour or more were wasted waiting for immigration to clear the non-US passengers. Coupled with snorkeling located ...

Pros: Great climate and beachs
Cons: Establish an intravenous connection with your bank

Review Topic:  Overview

I’m not real sure how we got to the decision to go to Paradise Island for our 15th wedding anniversary this November, but we ended up there. We got to our hotel, the Sheraton Grand Resort, after an...

Pros: Pool, low cost, casino
Cons: Hotel is ugly

Cant afford to stay at Paradise Island? Try the Nassau Marriott Resort and Casino. I stayed at this hotel recently I truly enjoyed my stay. The hotel is large with 800+ rooms. Most rooms have a great view of the ocean due to the way the buildings are...

Pros: beautiful and clean ocean
Cons: drugs and scams

I have only visited Paradise Island but would love to go back some day. We stayed at an all inclusive resort and casino. I highly recommend the all inclusive packages. You pay alittle more when you book your trip but food is expensive when you get...

Pros: Weather, water, night life, activities
Cons: Taxi drivers, hair-braiding ladies

Go to the Bahamas Mon!

The Marriot Resort & Crystal Palace was in my opinion the second best place to stay on the island. My fiance and I took a trip to the Bahamas in Nassua in June. We decided to stay at the Marriot Resort & Crystal...
