Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Had the opportunity to celebrate my birthday once again on Harbor Island. First and foremost, we encountered nothing but professionalism at Valentine's Resort. The front desk ladies, and Curt the attendant were superb. In addition, we dined at the Rooster Bar- I would highly recommend their grilled chicken caesar salad with the conch chowder soup.

Very easy and casual- great cocktail menu and a full equipped bar which is surprisingly hard to find in the island. Lovely service as well! Here you will have a lovely view plus the food menu option is very tasty. If in harbour island please do visit this place!

We were on Harbour Island for a wedding and the “recovery brunch” was held at Valentines. They offered a brunch of fresh fruit, scrambled eggs , breakfast potatoes, mini pancakes, sausage and bacon, and more. It was fresh and delicious. We were so impressed we came back that night to watch football at their outdoor bar and have dinner. It’s a beautiful location and the food was delicious.

Very disappointed in this resort, we paid over $1200 per night for. If you are searching for a hotel with "beach" and "pool" I would take these two criteria off of this listing. The beach was literally the public beach with private chairs set up. There was zero service at the beach, no place for drinks, food, no toy rentals, etc. Nothing. It is completely empty because of this issue. Guests give up and eventually end up at Ms. V's where you can easily rent chair set up for $25, she has great drinks and serves lunch/ snacks, has free beach toys for kids and you can rent boogie boards. It is very lively where she is on the exact same beach of "pink" sands. So, save some money and get a place without a beach amenity. The pool is lackluster, again, no staff. The

Thank you very much for taking the time to review our property and please do accept our sincerest apologies for your inconveniences. The input and constructive feedback from you, and from all of our guests, is vitally important to us. We are aware that some of the photos on the website are in need of updating and we have scheduled a photo shoot to get images that more accurately reflect our suites and resort. You are correct that the Valentines Guests Reserved section of the beach does not have drink or activity service. WE find most of our guests are looking for peace and tranquility. Miss V’s is a great place to go for more a more party scene. Our pool bar is only open for service when we have a large group or high occupancy at the resort. Please note that we do have daily maid service included with all stays. They only time a request for cleaning would need to be made is if there was a Do Not Disturb sign on the door when the team when to the room in the morning. We also have a landscaping and pool team that come to the resort every morning at 7 am, so there should never be any trash on the grounds for more than a short time. We are sorry that there were some issues with your room, and again, we do have a maintenance team that inspects the rooms between each visit, but it does sound like they need a refresher! We do hope you will give us another chance to impress you.

Valentine's is a nice property on the bay side of the island. If you plan to go off property you will need a golf cart. Contrary to what the hotel says, the 10 minute walk to the beach is up a fairly steep, half washed out dirt road and I would not recommend walking it. Overall our stay was pleasant and they absolutely have some amazing talent on their team but one area in particular was lacking. The Rooms: We rented 3 1-bedroom suites during our stay for 2 weeks. The rooms are very nicely done. Each room had a full kitchen, bathroom and sleeper couch/living room downstairs and a bedroom and second full bathroom upstairs. The rooms are spacious and well appointed. Our upstairs bathroom had a large soaking tub, steam shower and separate toilet. The vanity had tons of

Thank you very much for your recent visit and kind words about our resort. We look forward to sharing your comments with the staff you were nice enough to remember and mention by name. We were sorry to hear about your unacceptable experiences. Next month all members of our service team will undergo an extensive “Five Star Service Rock Star” training course in areas of Guest Services. You should never have been charged for such a short late check out. We would very much like to refund this to you, please contact our manager, Asia and she will arrange that. Please note that there are no private water taxis on the island. We had put in a request that the ferry service stop at our dock, but they did not show up. We should have done a better job at following up with them.

On the surface, we had a large room with a large bathroom, with a nice view of the pool. There are maintenance issues, however. We discovered after dinner that our patio door lock was broken; we were on the ground floor. Anyone could have entered our room while we were out. The shutters for the bathroom didn't shut all the way; I would not recommend booking the Jr suite for anyone other than a couple, there is very little bathroom privacy. The AC was supposedly individually controlled, but they don't allow you to set it below a certain temperature (I'm failing to recall but something like 72°?). Suffice it to say, I was too hot to sleep. The pool was FULL of bugs, I don't know if the pump and filter weren't working or what, but I've never seen a pool that full of bugs. An

Thank you so much for your recent visit and kind words about our resort. You are correct that our room AC units are kept at 72 degrees and we are sorry to hear that this is not a cool enough temperature for you. We will immediately research which room you stayed in fix the patio door to make sure this does not happen again. Please note we do have a pool cleaning team at the resort every morning right at 7 am. We hope you will stay longer on your next visit, and we will help you arrange a golf cart!

The service and food is the best. “Courtney” served our party of ten in the private dining room and later at the dockside bar. She is one of reasons we will be back. Many restaurants in the Bahamas have an issue with large parties, this was definitely an exception to the rule.

Not to be missed. Courtney was a delightful server - the meal was delicious and the drinks divine! Beware of the Bahama Trauma… apparently, they can sneak up on you. Thanks Boathouse for an outstanding meal!
