I stayed at Grand Isle for 5 days (spanning New Year's Eve) - my only wish is that I could have stayed longer. The staff is incredible, warm, friendly and really seems to care that you are comfortable and having a good time. The villas are gorgeous - well decorated, clean and the kitchen has everything you need if you... More

My girlfriend and I stayed in Grand Isle for a long weekend, and had a terrific time. The accommodations are unmatched anywhere else in the Bahamas. We loved that the units are full apartments, and for a brief several days, it felt like we lived in the islands! The staff is very friendly and goes the extra mile for guests.... More

Our family of five adults just returned from Exuma, Bahamas and stayed a week at Grand Isle. We had previously visited Exuma 9 years ago, renting a houseboat over the Christmas holidays. Our return this time was luxurious in comparison. Grand Isle is a beautiful resort with outstanding villas. We couldn't ask for a more beautiful villa. The idea of... More

This property is top quality. When they built this place, they spared no expense. Everything about this place is high end. We stayed in a one bedroom ocean view room, and we can't not say enough good things about it. The grounds are lush and beautiful. Each room comes with a golf cart, so you can cruise around the entire... More

My husband and I stayed at the Grand Isle from 7/24/11-7/31/11 celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary. Preferring a property that allows you the convenience of home amenities while still being in a resort setting it provided that and more. The golf cart allowed you easy access to the grocery, liquor store and pizza restaurant at the end of the road.... More

This was our second stay at Grand Isle near Georgetown, Great Exuma. The accomodations are first class, the grounds are lush & immaculate, pool is beautiful & overlooks the aqua blue sea, & staff are friendly/helpful. We hire a driver (great guy) for advice & have had him join us for lunch as we tour the corners of the island.... More

The resort was beautiful. The photos of the rooms and the grounds don't do them justice. We had a 3 bedroom unit which was very spacious and had everything we needed. The staff and the island people were all super nice and helpful. We always felt safe and the water is incredible. You do need to rent a car but... More

Two things I was unhappy with: our listed complimentary shuttle was a $20 one way taxi ride. The menu at Pallappa Grill is very limited. The rest couldn’t be better: the minute we arrived, I was very impressed. Villa’s were clean, inviting and well-appointed. Manicured grounds, attentive staff, nice spa service and delicious food dishes. Chef Ann prepared the best... More

We just returned from a fantastic family vacation at Grand Isle! The resort is incredibly relaxing and quiet, it was just right for our family. The children enjoyed playing in the pristine waters of Emerald Bay. We kayaked, played in the pool, cooked in the great kitchen in our apartment and had a wonderful time in Exuma. The staff at...
