Hotels near Lake Nacy, Nassau

Very good view very good

The location of the hotel is right in the city centre, but all the shops in downtown Nassau are closed at 6:00 in the evening. We didn't borrow a car in the center of Nassau because parking was very inconvenient.

The Holiday Inn Express is perfect for people who want a clean and comfortable accommodation without staying at an ”all-inclusive” resort. The Bahamian culture and the Nassau area are so beautiful, and it would be a shame to lock yourself into a sealed resort where you don't really interact with locals. Service here was fantastic -- my air conditioner was misbehaving a bit on the first day, and I asked someone to come take a look, and instead they upgraded me to a larger room to make sure they had time to look at the a/c and that I didn't spend a moment being uncomfortable, which was above and beyond my expectations. They have a really tasty hot breakfast, and their snack selection, available 24 hours a day to be picked up at reception and billed to your room, is broad and includes even full microwave meals (for when you're hungry at 3am on an island with very to no overnight food places available). The prices are very, very reasonable, as well -- after snacking pretty consistently throughout my seven-day stay, I expected my snack and beer bill to get a little crazy, but it turned out to be about $20 after I ate and drank well over $20 worth of stuff. It's easy to walk to downtown and shop, book tours, etc. from here, and the beach is right across the street. The Fish Fry at Arawak Cay is a 5-10 minute walk away as well. Most of what I wanted to see and do was an easy commute on foot, and cabs to and from the hotel were reasonably priced, when I was way too tired. Plus, the #10 city bus runs right past it. I would definitely recommend this place to travelers who are pretty independent in a new location, but also like comfort and great service. It was the perfect balance for me.

Stayed at the resort for a week, the staff is so friendly in all areas of the resort. The Condo type rooms in the One Particular Harbor building are perfect for families. The pool includes slides and a lazy river. For $60 a day per person you can get access to the club lounge which has breakfast, light lunch/snack items and hors d'oeuvres late afternoon. A decent bar to make your own drinks as well. Had at least one meal in each restaurant, brunch in JWB on Sunday was our favorite but all are good.

The location is also close to downtown and the view from the hotel is fantastic. The only downside is that the water comes out a bit too thick.

The owner is an amazing woman. She was very helpful, easy to reach, and accommodating. She responded to questions quickly which was impressive as we made initial inquiries four time zones away. While there she also responded to messages quickly. The apartment had everything we needed including a full-sized refrigerator, gas stove, and a microwave. We even had a private outdoor area. We were there comfortably for a week. The location was very nice as well. We didn't have to drive far to have all of our needs met. What was interesting is that by contacting her directly we got a better price than going through typical travel search engines.

The hotel is on Paradise Island, which is across a sea-crossing bridge from the main island. The hotel is relatively small. It is one of the four stars that is not very good. If you have the strength, you should pay more to live in Atlantis. There is a free small bar in the reception hall on the first floor. There are many people at night. The outdoor swimming pool is full of people during the day.
