Rooms here were nice and the beach was beautiful. But this is by No Means what was advertised! There is absolutely no food here and both “restaurants” look like they’ve been closed for years. The only thing open was the sand bar that is basically a run down shack that serves beer from a cooler and mixed drinks from bottles that have been sitting in the sun all day. If you’re looking for a nice quiet retreat id recommend this place. But if you’re looking for a resort with amenities stay on the north side of the island. Uber is non existent on the island so you need to rent a car or pay big money for a taxi if you want to leave the motel at all.

While the staff was pleasant and helpful, the hotel is simply run down and in need of a makeover. It felt like an old abandoned western motel. The room was not ready by 5pm. The water was not working until they fixed it. The room was just in needs of repair. Would not stay there again.

The staff are friendly and I did feel safe in the area, however, this is definitely a rustic experience. If you are resourceful and need no frills this place is perfect.

The property is quiet and ammenities are good for a getaway. Decor and customer service were middling at best. We didn't like that the coded door lock was not operational forcing us to leave our room unlocked during absences.

The property is very old and in disrepair. The manager wasn’t even aware that we were arriving. Our rooms were poorly equipped and could have been cleaner. Their amenities said they have a restaurant but it was more like a takeout menu. On the good side the people were very friendly and the manager went out of her way to arrange a morning taxi for us.

This property is as advertised. Quiet, beach access, and everyone there is super friendly. My trip was for work so it served the purposes with wifi, cold AC and a kitchenette. The staff at the bar was super friendly and check in was very easy.

All the staff had really good manners. If you’re traveling solo or without children or a looking to spend a quick night, this place is for you. Anything over 1 night, I wouldn’t recommend. The electricity went out twice, clogged toilet, no housekeeping. Old furniture, old fridge with peeling paints. Needs renovation. No breakfast as advertised. On a private beach (unclean), quiet, friendly staff, near downtown. If you’re staying there, just don’t go with any 5 star hotel expectations and be prepared to drive a few miles for food.

This resort was not at all as advertised. The beach was filthy and full of stinky seaweed. The accommodations were unclean, most items in the room were broken/missing, the staff was disorganized and/or non existent. Stains on the towels, foreign hairs in the bed, no shower curtain (which we found crumpled in the closet later) broken towel rack and toilet paper holders, rusty faucets, toilet didn't flush, no keys were issued for our room. The stray dogs in the dining area were at least tame and docile. We left and went to another hotel.

Dear Karol, Hope all is well, according to our notes you did not stay with us. You checked in and checked out when you were questioned if all was well or if you could be assisted you informed the staff that your company reserved two different hotels mistakenly and your group is staying at another and that's where you are heading.

This property is a complete dump. Do not be deceived by old pics. The host is very unprofessional. Complete Scam, none of the advertised amenities exist. I paid in advance for a week vacation but the property was so deplorable, I had to book somewhere suitable for humans. A wrecked junk car is a entrance of property, the " guest services" was a cluttered mess. A pigeon was found in our room pooping all over. If a dump is your idea of a pleasant stay, please look no further. Do not waste your money at this dump.

This is the type a reviews you get when a guest don't get what they want and when they did not do there research, this guest did not do their research and book one room with two beds for a husband, wife and a teenager and what to be down Town when the map show that we are not down town . Upon the guest arrival they ask for the nicest room I sense that these guest want something so before I check them in I show the room to them that they booked and they take it. We are not no scam you book a room and we had a room for you. We work hard for what we have and always working to make it better we don't clock in and out we clock in all the time because we love what we have and what we do. about the pigeon in all the years here its the first time seeing a pigeon this pigeon flew all the way from Cuba both leg was labeled with tag. This poor bird was tired and hungry. the bird enter the unit because you leave the door open and for that I am sorry, I am sorry the bird enter your unit. There a bird on this property everyday but none never enter a unit, after I told my friend about the guest behavior with the poor pigeon she send her husband to get the pigeon. Pigeon is now at the Zoo where he could get medical attention.

We enjoyed the very pleasant welcome and service from Precious. We enjoyed delicious peas and rice with jerk chicken as well as great breakfast. The property is undergoing some much needed maintenance work that will improve things in the future. We had to book something for one night at the very last minute and this place suited our needs perfectly. The location is away from the crowds and has a small but lovely private beach.

Authentic Bahamian experience. If you’re looking to be a pampered tourist like at an all-inclusive hotel, don’t come here. This beautifully scenic and delightfully quiet paradise is for the traveler looking to relax and enjoy natural beauty. The shrimp gyro is out of this world delicious. We were terribly sad to leave as we made friends with the entire staff at Coral Harbour Beach House & Villas. In 4 days, we have become great friends.

Overall a very good experience for the price. What to beware of: most of the rooms DO NOT have partial ocean view, they mostly face the parking lot (beach is in the distance beyond the trees); rooms don't have working TVs; rooms don't come with water as advertised, you have to ask. The staff is super but very overworked, they have too much to deal with so most requests take ages - including the food as many have written. The chef is very nice and does her best to provide everything you request. Vanessa at the front office is very obliging and does her best to keep everyone happy. The beach here isn't turquoise blue like it is on the north shore, BUT it also isn't swarmed with other tourists - it's pretty private and you get a Bahamian feel as opposed to big resorts that feel like you're in key west. The conch salad here is super (get the scorched version), and you get a local flavor. They even pack up food for you to eat in your rooms if you wish (although they say they don't really have room service, they will do their best for you). There's also a market and dominos right nearby which is convenient. Hotel needs to put water and coffee in the rooms daily!! get the TVs working! But overall a little gem of a place - just keep your expectations in check and remember that even crappy bit hotels in Nassau cost hundreds of dollars more and aren't as good or as private.

We stayed here one night as a stopover, mostly because it was close to the airport. The staff were friendly and helpful but the condition of the room was not worth the price. We paid 300 USD for the night so I expected something much nicer. The AC was leaking water (they fixed it), the TV didn’t work, the key code for the door didn’t work, the room was dark and felt dated. I also realized too late in the night that we only had three pillows on our beds for four people so I used towels for a pillow. 300 is too much for the conditions of the room.

Thank you for your review our apology for the missing pillow an the A/C most of our rooms or villa have four or more pillows sometime one is in the closet two hours before check in the A/C turn on and was working good our A/C Technician was on a different Island but he fly over to fix it that same night, this is the Bahamas its a beautiful place and yes it is not Cheap I am not sure what you paid for your room so I cant comment on it.The Tv do work but if the cable company is having problem then we will have a problem until they fix it we also have Free WIFI in the rooms and villas.

If you’re looking for a quite and wild place, far from the city, this will be perfect. Precious (the bartender) was amazing in taking care of us and helping in getting us a car. You will need a car to move around the island, buses are not common and taxi are expensive. Overall was very good time staying here!

No front office. No wash clothes. Sheets had stains. Room was filled with mosquitoes. The mattresses on the bed had a rather deep indentation which caused back pain and lack of sleep. The bathroom mirror had a hole cut out with a electrical outlet in. The bathroom shower barely worked enough to even take a shower. Once in the shower I noticed hair and mold everywhere. This place is purely a cash grab from outsiders.

We do have a front office as for the mosquitoes ask guest to keep the screen on there sliding door. as for the mattress in the room that you book we will investigate it. we know for a fact that the rooms/villas don't have mold.

I often find find that people who have not travelled much in the world can be very rude and ignorant about different culture.We don't advertise a fancy hotel its an island hotel on the beach we are not expensive, we didn't promise you five star ratings we are simply clean and safe villas our staff are friendly and we do our best to keep our customers happy.We believe that there are people in the world that still love the idea of simply things, island things, island feeling, hand made things that is what we sell here, we have a thatch roof bar and restaurant , thatch umbrellas on the beach, do you know what that is called its a work of ARTS, our villas are up to date for an island local hotel and like I told you we don't sell plastic luxury here.

I am sorry you didn't get the room you rented if this is the case, in which you didn't get the room you rent, maybe you arrived at the property before checked in and the room you booked is not ready as yet. our staff would do one of two things offer you a room that is ready or explain to you that your is not ready because you arrived early, they would then take you to the ready room and give the choice to do one of two things wait on your room or villas or take the ready one. As for the transportation not all our villas/room comes with free pick up and drop off services. if the villa/ room comes with free transportation you would have to reach our to our office with your flight information
