About Bahamas

A fabulous archipelago of 700 islands — or 2000+ if you count the little coral cays — the Bahamas are famed as a white-sand Caribbean paradise with a dramatic history of pirates, smugglers and explorers. There is a tremendous range of accommodation options to choose from, including simple guesthouses ideal for divers and anglers, luxurious honeymoon hideaways and fun, family-friendly resorts. The best places to stay in the Bahamas are spread across a hugely diverse array of islands, too, making this Caribbean nation all the more fascinating.

Some of our Bahamas Collections:

Glittering Nassau, the capital of the Bahamas, is set on New Providence Island. Home to the majority of the Bahamian population, the city has a wonderful buzz and bustle, with heaps of history as well as some of the region’s most illustrious old hotels. If you’re keen to delve into the area’s British history — dating back to the seventeenth century — as well as to enjoy a hip café, restaurant and bar scene, Nassau’s the place to pick. Grand Bahama too, has a lively feel and varied collection of hotels and resorts, as well as white sand beaches, great snorkelling and heaps to see and do. Just 55 miles from Florida, the island has a more American influence — including diners and malls — but there are also lovely local markets, botanical gardens and impressive National Parks. Grand Bahama’s long, narrow shape also means that much of the island is coastline, perfect for beachfront stays and well-suited to active families.

For diving and sailing, head to the Abaco Islands, where you’ll find caves and atolls linked by spectacular reefs. Whilst most of the islands in the group are too small to stay on, there are some very special hotels on Great Abaco and Little Abaco, as well as romantic retreats on select private islands, too. Hikers and divers will also adore Andros, the largest and least explored of the Bahamian islands. Brimming with palm forests, wetlands and mangroves, as well as underwater caves and the world’s third largest barrier reef, the island is a real biodiversity hub. Long Island and Cat Island are brilliant picks for outdoorsy explorers, too. If you’re dreaming of total relaxation, on the other hand, head to gorgeous Eleuthera or the 365 islands and cays of the Exumas, ideal for island-hopping and the ultimate barefoot luxury escapes.

Whether you’re into trendy shopping and chic eateries, world-class diving or low-key hideaways on secluded coves, the Bahamas has it all. This a popular region for good reason, too. Book your trip well in advance if you plan to visit over Christmas and New Year — the best places to stay in the Bahamas fill up fast!

The Best Places to Stay in the Bahamas

For Luxurious Opulence

  • The Ocean Club, a splendid Four Seasons resort, has been the ultimate Bahamian showstopper since it opened in 1962. Think seamless service, glorious style and heaps to see and do on the hotel's 45-acre estate, as well as in Nassau itself. Play a round of golf or a game of tennis, and laze about on the beach before chilling out at the spa or diving on the reef. Also boasting gourmet fare, this is a lavish choice for families or couples dreaming of the pinnacle of Caribbean indulgence.
  • Kamalame Cay is a gorgeous collection of 20 villas dotted around a 97-acre private island. Pick this property for its unique location, laid-back charm, classic luxury interiors — expect thatched hideaways with huge bathrooms and private terraces — as well as the only overwater spa in the Bahamas. Enjoy everything from tennis to kayaking, diving, snorkelling or sailing, and kick back at one of two breezy beach bars for magical island evenings. Accessible only by private seaplane or ferry, the property is just a mile from the world's third-largest barrier reef. A top spot for couples or families.

For old-school Nassau

  • Graycliff Hotel is set in a charming colonial building, nestled within lush gardens. Pick this property for its opulent antique furnishings, including big four-poster beds, and wonderfully rare in-town location. There are two outdoor pools, a gym and a spa, as well as an excellent Bahamian restaurant with vast wine cellars and a boutique cigar company. Old-school style for history buffs looking to explore Nassau.

For Boutique Bliss

  • The Island House promises glorious Eastern interiors in a lush Nassau setting, ideal for hip, wellness-focused travellers. The Bamford Spa, fitness suite and yoga classes are a real highlight. When you're not at the spa, there's a 48-seat arthouse cinema, an eclectic selection of bars and eateries, an inviting pool and easy beach access. Book either a room or a self-catering apartment. Very cool.
  • Club Peace & Plenty is a serene choice for active travellers in Great Exuma. The converted historic house boasts 32 rooms, and is set right on the water in George Town, alongside its own private beach club. Chic, minimalist rooms will appeal to lovers of stylish design, whilst there's sailing, fishing and water-sports aplenty, too.
  • The Landing is a hip, India Hicks-designed boutique pad on Harbour Island. Expect 13 characterful, plantation-style rooms in a 200-year-old heritage house, a generous wine cellar and delicious dishes crafted by Chef Madelene Pedican in the world-class restaurant. A quirky choice for explorers.
  • Coral Sands is a striking seaside hotel set on nine beautiful acres of gardens just outside Dunmore Town on Harbour Island. There are three miles of white sand on your doorstep, as well as 39 elegant rooms and suites featuring cool tiled floors and dark wood furniture. Stroll from the pool to the library, the billiards room and the superb French-Bahamian restaurant. A charming boutique choice.
  • The Ocean View Club is a lovely beach property on Eleuthera's Harbour Island. Family-run, small and relaxed, this is a brilliant spot to unwind amidst marvellous design in a tented cottage or room just steps from the sand. Dunmore Town is nearby for those eager to explore. A laid-back pick for romantic couples or families who will appreciate a chilled vibe and fabulous interiors.

For Couples

  • Bahama House is an eleven-room plantation house retreat in the heart of Harbour Island's Dunmore Town. Spacious, individually decorated guestrooms feature four-poster beds and quirky artwork, plus there's a freshwater pool and hand-crafted tiki bar for an evening rum punch or two. There are heaps of lovely eateries in the area. An intimate heritage stay for couples.
  • The Other Side has to be the most glamorous glamping escape in the Caribbean. This gem features immaculate tents and 'shacks', complete with hardwood floors, contemporary four-posters, Berber-style rugs and indulgent touches. Add the seclusion of a private island (near Eleuthera) and you're in romantic perfection. Don't forget the games tent, yoga and fabulous beach bar.
  • The Cove Eleuthera offers cool, contemporary rooms and villas for style-conscious couples in a brilliant beachfront setting. Stay here for the soothing spa, delectable organic dishes and the imposing hilltop infinity pool. Peaceful and featuring a plethora of quirky activities, including paddle boarding, horse riding, garden tours and swimming with pigs, this is a wonderfully tranquil choice.

For Families

  • The Cove Atlantis is the ultimate family resort with its own cinema, casino, beach, water park, an 18-hole golf course, water-sports, art classes and more. A huge high-rise on Nassau, the property promises a plethora of dining options, as well as smart bedrooms with impressive sea views. There are great kids clubs, too. Big, bold and full of activities.
  • Fernandez Bay Village, on Cat Island, offers cute, characterful beachfront cottages featuring stone walls, bamboo furniture and private patios. There's stacks of space for the whole family, well-equipped kitchens and you're just steps from the beach. Savour fabulous food at the hotel's relaxed eatery and sip cracking cocktails at the popular tiki bar after days out on the water. The complimentary kayaks, paddle boards and bicycles are a lovely touch. A fun, family-friendly hideaway.
  • Old Bahama Bay is a Grand Bahama classic. Book a two-bedroom suite or adjoining rooms if travelling as a family, and throw yourselves into myriad activities, including great water-sports and an excellent kids club. Comfortable, traditional rooms are housed in brightly-painted wooden buildings on lawns just back from the beach, with big verandahs. There's a terrific seafood spot and BBQ beach bar, too.
  • Pink Sands features 25 effortlessly chic rooms, suites and villas set along a superb pink sand beach on Harbour Island. The two-bedroom cottages and villas are ideal for families, and little ones will adore exploring the 26 acres of gardens, building sand castles on the beach, playing tennis or sampling the many water-sports. The slick bar and locally-sourced menu of outstanding dishes at the restaurant will be a sure-fire hit with the grown-ups! Small and luxurious.

For relaxed families and sailors.

For Great Value

Travel Information

  • Fly to Nassau's Lynden Pindling International Airport, the largest in the Bahamas, and take a short flight to neighbouring islands from there — or travel by boat for something a little bit different! There are also regular international flights to Grand Bahama International Airport and Exuma International Airport.
  • There's so much to see in the Bahamas! Contact our online partner Rentalcars if you would like to hire a car.
  • Travel between November and mid-April for warm, dry weather. The hurricane season — July to October — is best avoided. The further south you venture, the more tropical the islands' climate becomes, due to their proximity to the Tropic of Cancer, so it's worth looking into the weather for your specific destination before you book your trip.
