Mangrove Cay Vacation Packages

Overall, we had a very enjoyable stay at the British Colonial for just over 1 week in Nassau. The hotel itself was appealing and well-furnished with spacious rooms, the staff were friendly and helpful (they helped me find a lost device at one point), and we enjoyed the pool and on-property restaurant and bar. The location is also ideal for going on tours and boat trips to the other islands. We did encounter some problems during our trip, but they had nothing to do with the hotel and were more about the Bahamas as a whole (e.g., very high prices, lack of transportation / ride-sharing, occasional power outages, etc.). But, again, these were all beyond the control of the hotel staff. If you're staying in Nassau and want a good, reasonably priced hotel in a central location, I would recommend the British Colonial.

Room clean, the areas around the hotel clean. The bar is an issue. You cannot concentrate in the shows and watch the USA World cup at the same time. Other than that good hotel.

There was nothing I liked my room was dirty. I never had washcloths the whole time. I stood there. I never had a TV clicker. My wristband always was dead. Every time I came home from my day and my air conditioner did not work.

Recently returned from 6 days at the Atlantis. (Family of 3- 2 adults and 1 child (12)) We had an amazing experience! We stayed at The Cove and opted for the club level- which was well worth it for us! (Note- the club lounge does not allow kids under 12- staff is strict about this policy) Club includes a full breakfast in the morning and small bites after. Later there is a happy hour and a dessert bar. This helped us not always go out. (However, the club concierge was great!) The room was spacious for 3 of us. The view from the room was amazing! Apparently there was construction on a pool and some balconies during our stay- both of which we could see from our room- but we could barely hear anything. The Cove was conveniently located. We walked to dolphin cove, the water park, and most of the other hotels. Otherwise- there was a shuttle every few minutes. Everyone we encountered was beyond friendly. We’ll definitely be back!

Although the staff was very nice, we were not very happy with the rooms. The decor was nice and the kitchen had everything needed but… Our first room was not cleaned well. The bathroom grout was dirty and the carpet sticky. We moved to another room and although that one was very clean there was an issue with the air conditioning. The room was always very humid. Our clothes felt humid all the time. As soon as you opened the door you could feel the humidity smell. Although they came to check on the AC it was never really fixed. Also the noise every time the AC turned on sounded like an airplane taking off. It was so loud and the unit was inside the bedroom, it would wake you up multiple times during the night. Regarding transportation around the other properties, in the most part there were buses coming every 10-15 minutes which was fine, but one time we had to wait at the royal for 30 minutes waiting for a bus. Everything there is very expensive, specially water!! One bottle is $12 USD. The other properties were nice but be prepared to walk very long distances. To go to the the beach you have to walk a very long distance. The food at the fish by jose Andre’s restaurant was delicious as well as the su day brunch at the buffet

Staff was amazing

Shower not working Air conditioning failed in the middle of the night Very poor breakfast

Clean facility, cleaning staff very polite however, way overpriced on the food and beverage cocktails are diluted with cheap liquor and way overpriced.
