Our Picks
6 hotels · Updated February 2026
Cable Beach
SLS brings its signature fashion-forward aesthetic to the Baha Mar complex with design-forward rooms, an excellent pool, and access to Baha Mar's full amenity programme — 40 restaurants and bars, three golf courses, and the Baha Mar Casino. The celebrity chef-driven Cleo Cooks restaurant is a destination dining experience, and the rooftop bar's sunsets are extraordinary.
Paradise Island
Built on the former Huntington Hartford estate, the Ocean Club is among the Caribbean's most storied properties — 35 acres of Versailles-inspired gardens cascading to a private stretch of beach on Paradise Island. The 107 rooms and suites are elegantly understated in a way that feels almost deliberate against the Atlantis spectacle next door. Dining at Dune by Jean-Georges is exceptional by any global standard.
Cable Beach
An energetic SuperClubs all-inclusive on Cable Beach that has long attracted couples and groups seeking maximum fun at accessible price points. The resort's long beachfront, numerous pools, climbing wall, tennis, and non-stop entertainment roster create a relentlessly social atmosphere. Breezes delivers on its promise of a party-forward Caribbean holiday.
Exuma
A 96-acre private island with just 20 villas and suites, Kamalame Cay in the Andros Bight is among the Bahamas's most exclusive escapes. The bonefishing, diving, and kayaking here are genuinely world-class, and the resort's commitment to privacy is absolute. A favourite of those in the know who find Harbour Island too social.
Paradise Island
The Cove is Atlantis's premium adults-only tower — a more sophisticated enclave within the iconic mega-resort complex that gives guests access to the full Atlantis experience (Aquaventure waterpark, casino, 20+ restaurants) while retreating to a quieter pool, upgraded rooms, and dedicated beach section. The best of both worlds for Atlantis seekers who want a touch more serenity.
Cable Beach
Sandals's flagship Bahamas property on Cable Beach brings the brand's signature couples-only all-inclusive to a property with an unusually elegant British colonial aesthetic. The private offshore island with its own swim-up bar and beach, combined with overwater bungalows and eight restaurants, deliver an exceptional all-inclusive experience for romantic travellers.
