My husband and I just returned from Staniel after a week's stay. I can't say enough about the clear waters, great snorkeling,friendly staff (esp. Rhonda!) and commaradarie we found at Staniel Cay. Been all over the Carribean and this place has the most beautiful waters and gorgeous beaches! There are deserted beaches everywhere you look. Did miss the television a... more

First off, if you are looking for a posh Bahamas island with lots of planted palm trees, abundant shopping and an active nightlife scene, then Staniel Cay is not for you. Go to Nassau or Georgetown. The village surrounding Staniel Cay Yacht Club is real, not touristy glam, and thus is not the most picturesque. And the markets do not... more

We spent four nights at SCYC just afer New Year's in one of the tower cottages on the inclusive plan. After waiting 5 hours for our Air Flamingo flight to leave Nassau, finally getting to Staniel Cay was like arriving in paradise. The island is beautiful and the town and local people were charming. The main point of contact is... more

A friend and I just spent three nights at SCYC, a trip which we planned at the last minute a week before. Given that we hadn't really put a lot of research into the trip, we would have been happy with anything, but it turned out to be a fabulous trip. SCYC is such a laid-back environment, and in such... more

Third time I've been to this resort. The 2nd time for Christmas. If you can find a cost effective way of getting here - ideally by your own private plane or yacht - then this is the best base from which to explore the Bahamian out islands. If you decide to stay here you must stay in either the bungalows... more

We researched a lot about where to go for our one week “romantic” holyday, Staniel Cay was the final choice as we wanted to get away from it all. It was the PERFECT choice!!! The hotel Staniel Cay Yacht Club is simply fantastic... a mix of good service and great rooms with small and intimate hotel feel. We stayed in... more

My husband and I and our children spent time at Staniel Cay Yacht Club in March 2005. If you are looking for a completely laid back, casual and quiet place, with the most beautiful gin clear waters, this is for you. Yes, the bar crowd gets going in the night, but you are on vacation. By the way, this has... more

Hi, My wife and I went to Staniel Cay after learning about it from my son. We flew on the Staniel Cay plane from Fort Lauderdale which in itself was a great way to get a look at the lower half of the Bahamas. On arrival you can tell immediately that this is laid back and time to shut down... more

Hi All, My wife and I stayed at the Yacht Club on Staniel this past May (2005) and we could not have had a more different experience than those last two posts I read! Yes, it is not a place for those who need to be pampered at the Four Seasons level, but we received fantastic service for our room,... more
