Where to stay in Bahamas?
 

im thinking resort..all inclusive sort of thing

for the wife and son and I

checked out various hotels etc

dont want to spend a fortune

RIU PALACE PARADISE ISLAND

seems like a good deal....and i think its close to Atlantis, so we can go and take pictures and pretend we stayed there ;)

any other locations you guys have been to in bahamas?

want something that i can bring a 1 year old to

The Cove at Atlantis

We went the opposite direction, and stayed away from the resort type of thing. I rented a beachfront house on South Andros for the boys and I. We had a blast and totally had the beach to ourselves the entire 7 days.

Stayed at this all-inclusive during a business trip that unexpectedly turned into a numerous night stay a while back. Room was ok, food and drinks were good, huge pool area. Very reasonable. http://www.paradiseislandbahama.com

Going there? Have an amazing time man.

thanks guys...selena...will look into that as well, i like the idea of the beach to ourselves...however i also like the idea of non stop drinks being brought to me on small trays..lol

paradise island seems tot be the hot spot

Stay at ryu, it's right beside Atlantis. I have stayed there before it's fine. Plus the price is right!!!

The cove is amazing but expensive. If your daughter was older Cove/Atlantis is a no brainer. Their new waterpark is SICK.

btw a friend of mine just booked a weekend at atlantis plus flight and it was 600 for 3 people i think. Good deals to be had if you research for the atlantis.

the big advantage of riu is the drinks and food. At Atlantis you can expect to spend $200+ a day for the family in food and there are no grocery stores near by (have to take a cab for 10 min to get to the closest one, but then you'd be hard pressed to find a cab back lOL).

Let me know when you are going. You have to golf there. You have to play the course I shot 79 on ;)

last year stayed at Cove Atlantis and had a great time with wife and 1 year old.
We had a great deal for the 3 of us.

79?


pretty good man :) my best ever is 81

but i played from the whites that day...so doesnt really count

thanks ill look into the atlantis as well

thinking of november or december, just as the cold snap hits...head down for some sun

Yup My sister is there right now with her family. I think she got the room for $140/night from Travel Zoo

Only stayed 1 time because we missed a connecting flight and there was not another until the next day.. Had to stay at the HORROR Day inn.

Atlantis all the way - but then again you don't want to spend a fortune so I don't think that's possible at Atlantis, at least it wasn't for us!
