Although the staff was great and ended uo saving our trip home. The property had bees everywhere. They were in the rooms, in the lobby, throughout the common areas. It was horrible. Definitely dont recommend in November if you have a bee allergy and only one epipen.

The property and rooms were clean and maintained despite the age and dated appearance. The restaurant was very good and reasonably priced for the Bahamas. Staff was friendly. Only drawback is no fridge or coffee maker in the room I had. I suppose I could have inquired at the desk but I ended up buying a styrofoam cooler and 20lb bag of ice.

Firstly my reservation implied the hotel had taken a deposit but on arrival this was found not to be so., Hotels.Com need to modify their wording. The room was fine but the air conditioning was very loud and could not run permanently so kicked on and off all night keeping me awake. Also the noise from AC meant the television sound had to be turned up possibly annoying neighboring rooms. In the bathroom one of two lights was out and the toilet was hard to flush leaving 'evidence' after the flushing stopped. Finally two bottles in the shower containing shampoo and or body washing liquidis were not marked with what they were.

Food was vile reheated old food from days before. I bought food and wasted my money just to bin it. It was very old and reheated food as the restaurant was always quiet. The bed was ok, but bedding very old and yellow and mismatched. No duvet, just a scratchy old throw. Air con was so noisy and yet the room was hot and stuffy. It was the same story when checking out another room. It was just as hot. Reception man refused to help me carry my shopping up one day despite seeing me struggle. There is no one. No bell boy, no elevator. Staff on reception, especially the man is very lazy. I have moved to another hotel. It us much better, and oddly enough its cheaper
