• Free internet. We went when Hurricane loke was near and they took great care of us and kept us informed.
• The hidden service fee of $30 per couple per night.

“Overall, the hotel was great. Live music. Friendly staff. Otherwise, great for romantic couple get-away. Beautiful balcony views and a comfy bed. The room was comfortable and modern. Internet is free. Starbucks coffee and tea in the room is a plus. Free in-room safe was nice. Phone wasn't cordless and was across the room so you have to get up to use the phone.”

• The modern decor.
• The location.

“Be aware of the resort fees. $15 per person per day, and a one time bellman fee of $5.40 per person. The drinks are expensive $9 at the bars, and the restaurant food is expensive. However, the rooms are comfy and you definitely feel safe. The grounds are wonderful.”

• The Sheraton is newly remodeled. But it still shows its age in some areas. The complementary beach activities were great!
• The staff was not always friendly. They charged a daily resort fee without informing me. Our room did not get cleaned one day.

“Overall, the hotel was nice. It has a great beach and the resort offers complementary beach activities like snorkeling gear, water bikes, floats, and ocean kayaks. It has 3 very nice swimming pools and well landscaped. They had an activity almost every evening. (movie by the pool, popcorn, etc). The major problem was that the hotel is five miles away from downtown and does not offer a shuttle. So you are relegated to taking a $20 taxi (one-way) or riding the bus to get to the downtown area. The bus only costs 1 dollar but is only operational until 6pm. So, for a family of four to go out to eat dinner at a restaurant downtown it would cost $4 to get downtown and $20 for a taxi back. Not to mention everything in the Bahamas is at least twice as expensive as it is in the States. A typical meal cost around $25 a person. The other problem is that everyone expects a tip. I had to carry $20 in ones at all times just to be able to make it out of the door. Travel to Paradise island was also expensive. A taxi would cost $50 (roundtrip). Public transportation (bus, walk four blocks, ferry, walk several blocks to Atlantis) cost $32 roundtrip. We did not enjoy our trip to the Bahamas mainly because it was so expensive to do anything there. Air conditioned shuttles would have been extremely helpful.”

• Newly renovated so clean and beds comfortable.
• No fridge in room. Towels in pool only 1 per person and closes at 6. Not aware of resort fees and concierge fees added to bill.

“Overall a good experience. However would have liked hotel staff to be more forthcoming with information about hotel facilities etc as we only found out about use of facilities at Wyndham through one of the Royal Holiday sales reps.”

• Nothing.
• Two out of 3 elevators were broken, my room floor was sticky, the bathroom walls were peeling, dirty and the room smelled like an old attic.

“I checked out after one night and was given a difficult time by hotel staff. I will not recommend this hotel to anyone.”

• It looked very nice, relaxing atmosphere yet fun place.
• The gratuity fee, service resort fee (maid, pool workers, beach workers).

“The over all atmosphere is very nice. The people are not over friendly like Texas people are use to. I just figured it was part of their custom. If someone has never been to the Bahamas this hotel is in a great location and very nice. I would love to take my kids back to this same hotel in the near future. Just know that you will have to pay a resort fee (for the maid, pool workers and beach worker). You also have to pay for the bellmen. The workers are all working off of tips. It will be added on your bill at every restaurant in the country.”

• NA.
• There were fees for resort, bell service, gratuities for everyone and everything, yet they all expected more at the time of service as well.

“Wonderful location, easy access to the airport, staff was very friendly but with hands out for additional tips that were eventually added to my bill anyway. Beach very beautiful, staff attentive, restaurant food was lousy at best and we ate all meals away from resort. Outdoor service was extremely poor and we are accustom to putting ourselves on island time and relaxing. Overall nice and we will go back.”

• The location was quiet and away from the hustle and bustle of Nassau.
• Not informing when checking in of the additional resort fees.

“Food and drink was way too overpriced, even when compared to Europe. We wound up eating breakfast at McDonald's daily since the hotel cafes offered the same thing for 5 times the price of McDonalds.”

• Renovations, upkeep, friendly staff.
• Add on fees, front desk slow.

“We thought that the rooms were very well decorated, as the remainder of the hotel was too. We were frustrated by all the add-on fees. We were not informed of the fees until check-in.”

• Beautiful architecture.
• No spa, internet access, pool bar closed at 9pm, no life, no help from employees, toasted my own 9$ bagel!

“Although this hotel is grand in it's architecture and it's remodeled rooms, this hotel is far from Downtown Nassau, far from Paradise island and very remote! Employees failed to mention that there were other restaurants in the hotel connected to the Sheraton (under the same umbrella) and that was extremely disappointing considering the food was much better at the connecting hotel (where also a casino lies) and also a lot less expensive and in much less of a cafeteria style ambiance! If you are a business traveler for two days! Fine hotel If you are staying for a leisure vacation not the place to be!”
