Our family of four (husband, wife and two teenagers) just returned from a weeks stay at the Ocean Reef Yacht Club and Resort. We enjoyed our vacation very much. This is not a gold crown resort--it is a silver crown and lived up to that. Our two bedroom corner unit was large and nice. The master bedroom was large, with a jacuzzi tub in the bedroom, and it had a master bathroom which was small, but adequate. The second bedroom had a queen sized bed in it and was fine--nothing to write home about, but we don't go away to stay in our rooms, so we were O.K. with it. The livingroom was huge, the dining room was fine and the kitchen was a working kitchen with a counter into the dining room. There was a large patio outside the livingroom and dining room with access to a path that led directly to the marina and around the resort. The resort did not have great curb appeal, but we had no problems at all during out stay with anything. The restaurant had decent food at reasonable prices, the little shop had everything from trinkets to cold medicine. The social director was wonderful--of course you have to have guests who enjoy participating to make it fun and we did! The beaches were beautiful, the pool was clean, the scuba diving was really nice, the hot tub was really hot and always the center of activity. The Lacayan Market Place had great entertainment and restaurants and it was only a short drive away.

2 bedroom suite was great! With 2 bathrooms was great for 2 couples. Full kitchen for cooking saves on expenses. Also have 2 and 3 br. townhouse and 1 br. available.

Restaurant was wonderful - wide variety of items and really low prices and good food.

All staff was very friendly and helpful and courteous. Managers (Nina and Kor Dormans) were always helping. "Monday Madness" free dinner and party like you would get for big $$$ at other places! Great fun!!!

2 Public beach areas about 1 mile away so rental car is helpful but they do shuttle bus service to almost anywhere every day. About 2 miles to Port Lucaya Marketplace.

Will have to endure usual time share presentation. No linen change or room cleaning service and you exchange own towels. But great room, quiet location, wonderful swimming pool and hot tub. Planning to go back very soon!!!

The Ocean Reef Yacht Club (ORYC) was a delight. My daughter and son-in-law, my wife and myself spent a week at the ORYC over Thanksgiving. We enjoyed everything about it except the terrible weather we had. And of course, the ORYC had nothing to do with that.

We had a 2 bedroom townhouse. It was wonderful in all aspects. The first day we were there, we needed the airconditioning and it worked just great. Three days later, we needed the heater, and it worked as well. The kitchen is well stocked with pots and pans and utensils. It has a full size refrigerator. There is adequate space for 4 people to eat or just sit and talk in the living area on the ground floor. The bedrooms are upstairs and each has its own ensuite bathroom. If there was any inconvenience, it was that you had to go upstairs to go to the bathroom.

The retaurant on the property, though a little slow in its service, had excellent food at a decent price. Beer and booze were a little steep.

The dive shop on the premesis was great. They are a concerned, safety conscious group that has a great environmental ethic. They are very professional and extremely pleasant people.

I would stay there again if I went back to Grand Bahama.

This was one of the worst vacations I have ever taken in my life, and I have travelled extensively. Two staff in particular, Ms. Davis at the front desk, and the owner/manager were two of the rudest people I have ever encountered.
-The swimming pools were tiny and freezing. When I complained to the man who claimed to be the owner (but someone later told me that he was the owner's son-in-law) that I could not take my 11-month old swimming, he suggested I put her in the scalding hot tub, which, by the way, had paint chips in it.
