We stayed at the Ocean Reef Yacht Club in October, 2007, the resort was nice and clean, spacious rooms and great air-conditoner!! If your looking for low keyed resort this is it, though it could be because we were there off season, though they did have some fun activities a couple of nights at the resort which were fun and reminded us of cruise line games with the people staying at the resort, Hayward, the taxi drive was great! and gives first class service, do go to the activities they offer off the resort, like the fish fry, it sounded like just a fish fry but when we went it was alot of fun, great food, alot of people from all over the island and dancing, its worth going to. The bonfire i hear is good to but we did not attend. I suggest renting a car though if you are looking to go off the resort more than once a day, because taxi rides get expensive, $12.00 a couple plus tip and there isn't much to do at the resort or within walking distance. Beer and food also expensive, case of beer $44.50 . The casino was fun, and we went to the Wyndham hotel and hung out at their resort, All and all Bahamas is a nice place to see and visit, but not a whole lot to do, more value for your money in mexico, but it is a beautiful place to see, and lots of cool beaches you can drive to and have it to yourself, but you need a car.

What an awful place to stay! it spoilt our whole weeks stay having to go back to this awful place every night. We asked to be moved after the first night because of the dogs next door barking all night. the plae was dirty and there was nsects running all over the place. My son pulled his covers on his bed and there were silver fish in the bed.
We were moved to a nicer place the next day. but the beds were hard and the roof leaked in our bedroom and it chose to rain quite a bit that week.
The bar was shut most nights at eigh,t and when my son went to have a game of poole some of the balls were missing. This is just some of the issues that were wrong with this resort.
We would never stay there again.
The only nice thing about the place is the staff in reception who tried to be as heplful as there jobs would let them be.

We booked our stay through RCI time share exchange. I was expecting a little more for a Silver Crown exchange. We booked a two bedroom, but were a day late arriving, so they gave us two one bedrooms. They were very spacious, each having it's own room, jaccuzi, living room, kitchen, and patio. The units were nice, but there was a large burn hole in our conforter cover and the white sheets were dingy.
The resort itself is small. We were there in off season, so we practically had the whole place to ourselves. The grounds were cute, but the second bar/pool was closed (to be expected for offseason).
The front desk people were very friendly and helpful. The activities sales woman was also very friendly. Hayward the resort taxi driver was the best. Very helpful, friendly, and kept an eye on everything. Although the resort staff was very friendly & helpful, the Grouper Grill staff was not. They were slow, rude, and you had to go to them to order a drink or a meal. They were not looking to service you. For the price you pay for drinks and such in the Bahamas, you would think a smile would come with it. But sadly, no. And, since 15% tip is typically automatic, they don't need to work up that smile either.
Overall, I enjoyed the resort, but I will not be returning to the Bahamas for quite a while due to the overall attitude of the people. There is a general slow, rude, non service minded attitude on the islands that I do not wish to be force to tolerate while on vacation. The resort & staff were nice. The taxi driver from the resort was also very nice and helpful. The staff at the Grouper Grill and any other place we experience on the island were neither helpful nor friendly.

This resort is so beautiful. What a wonderful experience. Took a family of 8 in a 3-bedroom villa. Total cost was under $3500 including airfare from the East coast. This is the best bargain in the Bahamas. Three years ago I took my family to Harborside in the Bahamas. The trip cost our family over $11,000...what a waste of money and the beach was had so much people on it. We had three times as much fun in Freeport without the cost. I purchased a 3-bedroom at a resale site for under $5000. I am planning on taking my family on a vacation to the Ocean Reef Yacht Club and Resort every year. My kids 7-13 don't even remember our Disney vacations.
