Sandyport Beaches Resort: a little worn, but Comfortable
We stayed here for six days. I worried before going as I had seen some comments very negative … I worried for nothing. The hotel was clean, safe, and I was very pleased with our choice. The staff was pleasant and the reception were everything possible so that our experience hassle free.
The people working in reception are very helpful and nice. Whenever we needed something that they deliver. Room service on the other side was not so great. We had to ask for towels every day because sometimes we do not leave any. There are lots of things that needed fixed. The vending machine was broken. The pond outside our room was very nice though. I do not think I would stay here again.
The beach was nice but the water was a lot of rocks / stones in it though, made an ideal hiding place for a lot of unusual creatures. We swam with a 8-foot nurse shark, squid, octopus, sting rays, lobsters (at night with flashlights) and we had a great time. The bus takes you to the city for $ 1.00 each way and can be found many excellent restaurants there.
Channel in hotels is a snorkel excursion called "The Runaway". Do not miss this trip: $ 70.00/adult, $ 35.00/child.You swim in the beautiful beaches, swimming with reef sharks and these guys really know their stuff. I felt that my children were safe on the grounds because they have security fence by hand.
The food is very expensive, not only in restaurants, but in supermarkets. Two different prices for items in the store Grocery … one for local and one for tourists. I was advised to buy bottled water because of the high salt content of tap water. Also included are tips on everything … 15%. He did not agree with this as a service was not as good as others. View your statements of credit cards as some restaurants treaty add additional charges, was signed after receipt of the credit card.
We ate in the days of hard rock cafe center number. We thought it was safer place to eat. Service in the Bahamas is terrible because they add a 15% gratuity to everything they already know they are getting a tip every time.
This hotel can not be the Atlantis Resort, but when you walk away I think we will feel we had a great trip for a cost not to rack your pocket. There is a gas station behind expenses of the complex … Everything was expensive, but you can expect this on a vacation on the island. They have extreme rates in all its imports for the cost shown. Enjoy!
