“Okay”

South Ocean Golf & Beach Resort

3/5 found this review helpful

We stayed here for a week with a 1 year old. The room was not bad. Nice balcony, beautiful view. Bathroom was large. The room was a bit run down (as is to be expected), but fairly clean.

The beach was beautiful. The location is so remote and the hotel was very quiet, so honestly it was pretty boring. Definitely not a party atmosphere. More like a retirement villa. :) Nobody was around, nobody in the pool.

There was only 1 dining room and you had to walk quite a way to get there. I found the front desk staff and waiters to be very friendly. The food was pretty boring (same thing all the time). I also saw a roach scurry across the floor, but again, that is to be expected in a Carribean location.

It was fine but I wouldn't stay there again.

It’s been some time since we visited Nassau, but I still wanted to post my photos. I read the resort is now under construction. Hopefully Grand Opening will put my review to shame.

Words can’t express my fill with distaste with this resort, so I’ll be brief. Front desk - slow, unprofessional; Room - dim, musty; Bathroom - unclean, dated Jacuzzi (no refills on tissue or towels ?); Restaurant (singular) - tasted of day old food, menu was limited and not in an upscale kinda way. Seeing the outside structure of the beachfronts, was very appealing but deceiving. Beach was ok, but not clean. The BEST part about this place, Stuart Cove’s was right next door (I did a separate post for that).

Seeing the other reviews at 4 or 5 stars makes me wonder if those travelers were at the same place as me! I will not be returning.

first off, if you are paying $500 a night, then yes,it's not worth the money. i ended up picking this hotel because it was in a package i bought- with flight and hotel included. it was absolutely beautiful. rooms decent, staff unbelievably friendly, and the grounds are nice. this place is great if you want to stay at a soothing resort without people around. it tends to be quiet on the beach and hotel- no complaints from me! they have shuttle services into town from the hotel, which was nice! this is the place to go if you need peace, quiet, and alone time!

7/8 found this review helpful

My name is Gina, I went to the South Ocean Beach because of the price and setting. I did not do all inclusive because my boyfriend (now my husband)at the time whom was staying with his brother whom lives in the Bahamas would cook and have me over for the days. I wanted the flexibility to go anywhere and eat anywhere I wanted.

Travel was not a problem, you can rent a car, take a taxi or catch a bus. The bus was only $2.00 and went to Cable Beach and Paradise Island, it traveled along the coast and had beautiful scenery. I enjoyed it. In fact, one day the driver gave me a free ride back to the hotel because I had spent all my cash. That was nice.

the hotel has two pools, one right on the beach with a gorgeous setting and some of the hotels rooms with double doors open to a verenda over the beach. I loved it all.

I would have to say it was the most enjoyable trip.

The day I came I was asked for a credit card. I traveled with cash only at the time. They still accommodated me anyway. The staff was friendly and helpful.

The breakfast buffet I went late to, so I figured it was my fault I did not like it. We did not eat there otherwise. I have no opinion on the food.

I have reccommended this resort to many. I would go again and want to.
