Kamalame Cay

I had an incredible time staying at Kamalame. Upon arrival we were welcomed by Samson who was an absolute delight, and Alan, the bartender, crafted not only the best drinks but also some truly memorable conversation. And he’s a good dancer ! The grounds were stunning—lush, vibrant, and beautifully maintained. Every meal was a treat, especially the seafood salad at lunch with fresh conch and local fish. The nights were magical, with breathtaking stargazing and sounds of nature all around. I loved the outdoor shower in our room, which might just be the best I’ve ever experienced. I loved walking along the beach, meeting the friendliest guests, and spending time on North Beach, which was the highlight of my trip. Snorkeling along the creek I found colorful fish, and collected beautiful shells. Kamalame is a special paradise—unlike any other Bahamian island I’ve visited. The attention to detail in the decor, furniture, and interior design was truly inspiring. My only complaint? I didn’t stay nearly long enough.

This was my third visit in six years. Why do I return ? The island is beautiful but...with each visit, the quality of every other aspect of Kamalame Cay deteriorates. This time...1. The property is poorly maintained , for example, the showers were so heavily limescaled that they did not work (photos below) at all - no water flowed. 2. Housekeeping is weak - I found fish hooks on the floor and my son nearly ripped his toe off. 3. No curtains next to beds, 4. No soap in bathrooms...I pointed out all of these issues on day 1 and on our departure day, still no shower repair and no curtains. I removed the fish hooks ! 5. Pool area is littered and was not cleaned during the day. 6. Beach was not cleared of plastic and needed some care and attention. On check out , everyone was very casual and nonplussed by our experience. This is a five star price and setting with one star service and maintenance. The Bahamas is now blessed with more choices and Kamalame needs to up its game to compete. I will not return

The setting at Kamalame Cay is gorgeous — no doubt about it. The rooms are private, spacious, and offer sweeping ocean views. Sunrise and sunset? Absolutely stunning. It looks like paradise. But the experience? Not even close. For $7,000 over four nights, I expected thoughtful amenities, excellent food, and a service culture that matched the luxury price tag. Instead: No in-room or bathroom amenities to speak of Food was meh at best — subpar, repetitive, and only two restaurant options Drinks lacked fresh ingredients and any real craft No green juice or coconut water as promised in the package The “premium all-inclusive” felt anything but Felt more like a high-end timeshare than a true luxury resort — transactional, not indulgent We came to be spoiled and completely pampered, and it just missed the mark Managers were kind and tried to help, but most of the service staff felt checked out By day two, I was ready to leave. By day three, I was wishing I had stayed home with Uber Eats and my own bed. The value just wasn’t there. As a friend perfectly said — Kamalame? More like Kama-Lame.

Went with my wife and another couple. We had the best time in this little slice of paradise. The weather was perfect, the beaches were immaculate and the water was that beautiful bamaha blue. The food was great. Loved the lobster croquettes and curry goat, but there’s nothing bad on the menu. And last but not least, the staff was amazing! Super attentive and always made sure my drink was never empty lol!

Most amazing vacation I ever had! Definitely will be going back! Best conch salad ever! There is no area of the experience that is not 5 star... or better. ||Very relaxing vibe, and the staff is so attentive without being underfoot. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for a top notch vacation.

We stayed here this past long weekend, and it was nothing short of perfection. From start to finish, the service was impeccable thoughtful, attentive, and genuinely warm.||One standout moment was during dinner when our waitress noticed our friend’s baby getting fussy. Without hesitation, she kindly offered to take the baby so we could all enjoy some adult time. It was such a thoughtful gesture that truly set this hotel apart.||Beyond the service, the atmosphere was a perfect balance of luxury with a relaxed, welcoming feel elegant but never pretentious. We felt completely at ease, yet pampered in all the right ways.||We can’t wait to return!!!!!

Kamalame Kay was the absolute highlight of our Island Hopping Trip in the Bahamas. From the very first moment, we felt truly welcome by the staff and our accommodation (Rock House) was just stunning. Just steps from the sea, secluded behind lush green, and some palm trees. The house was spacey and comfortable and the interior was world class in terms of coziness and beach house atmosphere but top standard.|We went kayaking on the land side from the island, which was interesting, seeing turtles and stingrays.|Food was splendid and the best we had in the entire Bahamas. Definitely a place to go even though prices are obviously elevated as you would expect for this standard.

Fabulous stay at Kamalame Cay! The property is absolutely gorgeous, lush and tropical. The people are friendly and helpful. Shoutout to Sampson for going out of his way every day to make our stay more enjoyable. Only drawback…. The cottages and common areas need some TLC.
