Короткий огляд: It’s basically a cruise ship that doesn't move—packed with families, loud music, and expensive drinks.
Переглянуто @amanda0203: I spent my entire weekend at the Fins Up water park here. The lazy river is the perfect way to cool off, and the surf simulator was a total blast to try with friends. It’s the most fun I've had in Nassau.

Reality check
The 'private' beach is tiny and right next to the public beach, so it’s never truly quiet or secluded.
- You have kids who could spend 8 hours in a lazy river
- You want to walk to local bars and the Fish Fry instead of taking taxis
- You love the energy of a busy pool deck with a DJ
Чистота та обслуговування
8
- Housekeeping: Generally good, but reports of missed spots and slow service during peak times.
- Bathroom hygiene: Modern and clean, though some guests report clogging toilets.
- Maintenance: Newer property (opened ~2021) so little wear, but hot tubs often have temperature issues.
- Linens & towels: Fresh and standard quality; pool towels can run out on cruise ship days.
- Odors & scents: Lobby smells like signature Margaritaville scent; occasional sewage whiff outside from public beach.
