Sandals Emerald Bay Strand

This resort is beautiful. We arrived soon to the resort closing (4 days left). It was to our advantage. Unfortunately, not all of the restaurants were open every night. That was the only drawback. The ocean views, white sand, and having the pool to ourselves was nice. I think there were more workers there than guests. It was a trip of a lifetime. Exuma is beautiful. We booked the swim with pigs tour thru the tour agency. It was well worth the money. We would love to come back as soon as they reopen. I wished there were more lunch options, and a nice steak restaurant. It was beautiful. All of the resort workers were so nice as well.

Overall location and the beach is what makes this resort. Outside of that, resort is mediocre at best. Rooms and furniture very dated. Service was a major disappointment for us and many other folks we connected with at the resort. Our butler dropped the ball on a few occasions. There is a major lack of attention to detail when paying a premium for our room and the butler service. Lastly, each night there were limited restaurants opened, which threw a curve ball each night trying to figure out where to eat and whether we had a reservation. This was not communicated prior and had to adjust once we arrived at the resort. Again, the perfect beaches, waters and excursions saves this entire trip from being a complete disappointment. We will absolutely return to Exuma, but not this resort.

Vi är precis tillbaka från Sandals Emerald Bay, älskade vårt rum och vår utsikt. Promenaden till restauranger, strand och pool var inte lång alls. Området är vackert, jag älskar alla katter. Alla på resorten var mycket, mycket underbara och hjälpsamma. Stranden var vacker, vattnet uppfriskande och kristallklart. Stranden var lång och mycket vandrande. Älskade stranden och jag är från Miami.

Sandals Emerald Bay is an amazing vacation resort. We recently visited for my birthday and the staff made it a birthday to remember for years to come. They are so accommodating by making sure your every need is met during your stay. The grounds are beautifully kept with a large variety of colorful plant life. The pools offer entertainment or quiet depending on what you are looking for from a vacation. They offer a wide variety or restaurants that serve the most delicious food. The spa service was one to be remembered and left my husband and I even more relaxed on an already relaxing vacation. And then there is the gorgeous beach! What more could you ask for from a vacation. This is truly a 5 star hotel and we enjoyed our escape! Special thanks to the many staff members who assisted us during our trip!

I can’t begin to tell you what a great time we had at Sandals Emerald Bay. We arrived at the airport and were greeted by a well organized team getting everyone loaded into taxis for the short ride to the resort. There we were greeted by staff and taken to a lounge where we were given champagne while we waited for our room. Everyone was escorted to their rooms were we received an overview of the resort. Our room was large and clean. It was cleaned daily and there was a turndown service. Our fridge was restocked daily as well. The food was fantastic. Every restaurant was different and the service was great. Our favorite was the French restaurant, but each one was fantastic. We went to the quiet pool and hot tub every day. Very relaxing. The best thing, by far, was the golf. I have never played a course that was in such perfect shape. You simply walk out the front door of the resort and you are at the pro shop. No need for a shuttle ride. The fairways were lush and the greens rolled true. The back nine is right on the coast with great views. We got some great action shots of us golfing with huge waves crashing in the background. It is a challenging course and you should bring plenty of balls as there is plenty of water. I can’t say enough about the course. Our departure was just as easy as our arrival. They picked up our bags at our rooms and were very organized getting us to the airport. We are already saving for our next trip to this fantastic resort.
