Traumhafte Lage
Pros:

Das Hotel ist eine alte Villa im Kolonialstil, absolut ruhig gelegen und mit einer fantastischen Aussicht auf das Meer. Der Swimmingpool ist erstklassig – sehr großzügig, und wir haben jeden Moment dort genossen. Ein Mietwagen ist auf jeden Fall dringend empfehlenswert.

An die eher schwache Servicequalität, die teils unfreundliche Art vieler Einheimischer sowie die teilweise stark überhöhten Preise muss man sich allerdings gewöhnen. Wer erwartet, dass man stets freundlich angelächelt wird, Hilfe mit dem Gepäck bekommt oder um 20 euro essen gehen kann, ist hier möglicherweise nicht am richtigen Ort.

Gleichzeitig machen das äußerst angenehme Klima, die wunderschöne Gartenlandschaft, die besondere Architektur und die traumhaften Strände vieles wieder wett.

Aus unserer Sicht absolut empfehlenswert.

comfortable and relaxed
Pros:

Breakfast was very good and the service excellent

Cons:

The bill was difficult to understand and required a bit of emailing to get clarity. The front desk was very helpful with my questions.

Unsatisfactory.
Pros:

The exterior of the hotel was lovely. The staff were friendly.

Cons:

We were the only people staying there, which felt kind of creepy. The decor is awful - gold detailing on the furniture, horrible brocade drapes. It was like we were in Trump's White House.

Your Reservation is NOT Guaranteed - Steer Clear!!!
Pros:

Would leave zero stars if I could!! Booked this hotel back in January for stays on March 21st and 29th, passing through Nassau en route to/from Eleuthera. We received the standard "Looking forward to welcoming you" message 3 days before our arrival. When we arrived at the hotel after a 16 hour trip from Western Canada, there was no record of our reservation and we were turned away. Clearly a scam to take advantage of high rates at Spring Break!! Steer clear - your reservation is NOT guaranteed!

Airbnb not a hotel
Pros:

The property is located on a top of a hill, yes indeed a beautiful view, but far from downtown and other fun attractions. The beach is across a very busy road and not suitable for swimming. No beach chairs, open ocean , rocks and a lot of seed weeds. Not the best impression for the first visit. The property is not a hotel, it’s an Airbnb. If you want a place to be isolated, this is the place. Breakfast is available, but not variety. Transportation is very pricey, best option rent a vehicle. The room was clean. The staff was attentive and willing to help.
It was my first trip to Bahamas and expected the location to be different.

Elegant, quiet property not far from the Airport
Pros:

We needed a hotel last-minute in Nassau in between flights, and Ocean West Boutique was available and looked quite suitable. Overall the property is nice; a few minutes' ride from the airport (make sure to take advantage of their shuttle-service - almost half the cost of a taxi !). The staff were wonderful - very helpful! There is a great casual restaurant a few minutes walk from the hotel, and not too far to walk to a few shops. The property is lovely; elegant décor and pretty gardens, and a beautiful pool and deck. The pool is not heated, but the deck is lovely. It is a quiet property, away from the hustle and bustle and touristy-ness of other parts of Nassau. If you are looking for a beach, you won't find it here. The waterfront is a short walk away, but it is rocky, not sandy. Its a nice place for a short, quiet getaway close to the airport.

3 Quiet Nights after Abaco and Eleuthera with a small American Bird Conservancy group
Pros:

A lovely quiet room with view (I think the Emerald pictured with two comfortable chairs on the balcony), good service, plus breakfast options. As a birder the two small wetlands below the hotel's condos and the grounds provided several species of interest. Three restaurants within walking distance offered good food (2 Bahamian and one Italian with a mixed ambiance, especially the chickens and cats underfoot at The Plantation. I liked being out of the busier Nassau areas and the large tourist hotels.

Lovely, quiet, relaxing stay.
Pros:

Lovely little boutique hotel with nice pool and gardens. We loved the location - a short walk from a quiet beach. It is quite some distance from Nassau and if you want to see the island a car is useful. However, the hotel can access taxis.

Cons:

In general, there wasn't much that we didn't like. It would have been nice to have had a second chair in our large room and a few more pool chairs in the shade. These are suggestions.
