The Best Hotels in the Bahamas | Condé Nast Traveler

"Set on a whopping 35 acres of Paradise Island, I found this low-rise beachfront resort to feel like one of Nassau’s most luxurious stays — it even had a cameo in the opening scenes of Casino Royale. The grounds include a sculpture garden inspired by Versailles, a swimming pool overlooking the Atlantic, and a spa with Balinese-style treatment bungalows offering Bahamian-inspired treatments. Rooms have been recently refreshed in crisp cottons, creams, and pale blues, many letting you wake to the lull of the sea, and the opulent beachfront villas with private infinity plunge pools are truly show-stopping. By night the main house hums with bow ties, dirty martinis, and jazz drifting on the breeze." - Annabelle Spranklen
