Margaritaville Beach Resort, Nassau Bahamas

Nassau, Bahamas

Virgin rating

The hotel

Everyday is paradise when you wake up with views of the ocean through the floor to ceiling windows at the Margaritaville Beach Resort in the Bahamas. With over 5,000 square miles of beaches, pools, and bars to explore, this is your ultimate destination within a destination. It’s perfect for families, with spacious suites to accommodate you all together, some even with full kitchens for those nights when you want to eat dinner alone on the balcony. The activities on offer are never ending, the water park being the pick of the bunch – and we know you’ll love the slides just as much as the little ones really! There’s also an entertainment centre to keep them occupied, with games, bowling and a movie theatre, so you can relax in the spa or grab a frozen margarita from the beachfront bar and watch the cruise ships coming in and out of Nassau. Make sure you grab a spot at the rooftop bar in time for the sunset, definitely an instagram-able moment.

Nyoka was a wonderful server and the spinach dip was very good! I love the open air atmosphere with the windows open and the bay just outside the window. When I came before I had a burger and it was super good too! The location is close to everything

This may have been the best trip I’ve ever experienced. Nassau is a beautiful place, there are many things to do, and so much wonderful food. Margaritaville is a world-class destination experience with so much to do with the whole family!! The staff is exceptional, especially Lakeisha, who went out of her way to make our experience unforgettable!!

GYM REVIEW!!!!!!!! There are two gyms one on the 2nd floor (Main Building) & The other gym is in the partnered building across the road (Ground Floor, the building is apart of the Margaritaville Hotel) Same amount and same type of equipment in Both gyms. Both Gyms are Terrible but oh well just make do with it, be creative with the excises you do. Equipment: 1x Smith Machine 1x Leg Curl 1x Small Leg Press 1x Single Cable Machine 1x Awful chest press/ Lat pull down Couple Benches, dumbbells go up to 24kg All you cardio heads are fine there’s enough machines for you lot. 🏃 If you want a decent workout just stick to smith machine and the single cable machine you’ll be fine. Hope This helps for you gym guys & girls whilst you get smashed off alcohol in the evening even though the night life is terrible. Read less
