All you need to know
The beautiful Sandyport Resort sits in an enviable location on the Old Town Marina, with a stunning private beach, boasting pristine white sand and crystal-clear turquoise waters. The resort is impressive with excellent guest facilities including three lagoon-style pools, a tennis court, and multiple restaurants close by.
The hotel has a laid-back and relaxed vibe, with pretty pastel-colored buildings lining the beachfront. Guests can choose from a variety of accommodation options which include airy studio hotel rooms, king-size hotel rooms, or spacious deluxe suites.
Rooms have been designed beautifully to encourage guests to unwind and relax, with turquoise and white decor reminding you that the beach is only a stone’s throw away. Each room, of course, is fitted with air-conditioning, private bathrooms, and luxury amenities, such as flat-screen TVs and kitchen facilities within the suites and studio rooms.
Sandyport Resort is also very family-friendly, with children under 12 years staying free and multiple kid-friendly activities and facilities. The resort includes two children’s swimming pools complete with water slides for endless fun and entertainment.
The Sandyport Resort is located in the Old Town Marina Village of Nassau, surrounded by excellent restaurants serving traditional Bahamian cuisine. The area also has a lively nightlife and the nearby coastline offers excellent diving and snorkeling opportunities for marine enthusiasts. For guests looking to venture further the Cable Beach golf course is just over a mile away and the main town of the island is a short drive.

Really enjoyable after noisy and frantic stay at Paradise island-more how we expected the Bahamas to
Location of room Walk straight out onto safe beach and swim area Peaceful with no piped music! Great location for good choice of walkable restaurants and friendly church. There were courtesy trips to the supermarket although it was also walkable
Lack of lunch choice in resort Poor breakfast

Overall our stay was excellent and we really enjoyed the atmosphere and quiet nights.
Very clean resort and staff was very friendly. We had a large room with a generous bathroom and walk-out to patio which led to hammocks, shaded lounge chairs and man-made beach with nice view over looking the inlet. Close to all amenities.
Outdoor pools were very cold due to the season.

Very good
Nice area
There’s a door to another apartment which cause big problem when the neighbours are noisy.

Amazing workcation destination!
My room was well appointed (on the smaller side) but for a solo traveller this was adequate and had everything that was needed. The bathroom was also small but sufficient. The kitchenette was well equipped and it was appreciated. A larger work desk would have been nice but I don't think many people come here to work. I was able to take my laptop to Blue Sail but was chased off on the 2nd day. The resort itself is beautifully laid out and well kept. The location is magical and I felt my family would have enjoyed it more (but we will be back). The staff were well trained, very friendly and professional. I thought very highly of them, many of them greet you as you pass by (felt really welcomed). Overall a beautiful resort, just looks a bit tired with age but the crew looks like they are staying on top of it. Thank you for a memorable stay.
Nothing at all.

Proximity to beach a real plus.
If we had one complaint it was the water pressure in the shower. However, minor problem.

The ABSOLUTE BEST!
If you are looking for a place to vacate and don’t really need to or want to do all the “touristy” things or want the “hype” of everything near Paradise Island- EVERYTHING about this property was excellent! Rooms are a welcome retreat after a day out, always something interesting happening in the inlet - my room was right on the beach - completely awesome- and the staff were OUTSTANDING!! I never got the name of the maintenance person who made sure my remotes were working and came back the next day to bring a replacement with batteries; then from beginning to end TAJ our bellman (huge kind smile and always ready to assist - even on his break), IAN the taxi driver assigned by the hotel (on time - every time very knowledgeable) and the AMAZING and ALWAYS happy LEANNE who ensured that everyone at the hotel was having a FAB time - but she made my vacation the very BEST experience - I felt super special as a result of her gigantic gift of hospitality. Because of them, I will always stay here when visit and I will be there again soon! Quite honestly, all the staff at this resort were by far the most consistently hospitable people I have ever met in my travels. I highly recommend this resort if you’re going to Nassau!
Hard to say but… there is no room service or a resort shop (not a deal breaker) - and although there are lots of restaurants around the resort and a food delivery service, if it’s raining, late in the evening or coming in from a long day, it would be nice just to put a food order on my room tab.

Quiet and typical Bahamians days
Very cozy, typical Bahamians cottage. Positive mood, Personnel extremely kind.

Very pleasant.
The lagoon was a great experience throughout our stay. Our room was in a good location and allowed us to have easy access to everything.
The housekeeping could have been better, mopping the floor and paying attention to what was needed in the room (for example a complete set of towels in the bathroom, cleaning the coffee pot, and replacing the beach towels when they were removed from the room.

Stay at Sandyport in Nassau
Sandyport resort met our expectations for a relaxing vacation. The staff was very friendly and helpful. Alex was exceptional!!! He welcomed us on our 1st day and was always willing to assist with recommendations for restaurants, activities. He was very kind and attentive. Pam & Arthur always greeted us with a great smile and they were very helpful also. We were welcomed and taken to our suite by a wonderful young gent. He was great by being very helpful during our stay anytime he saw us. The resort was very comfortable and we liked having the beach within walking distance. We loved having access to the grocery store trip. The suite was very spacious with double sinks in the master suite. The bed was very comfortable and closet/storage space was great. We enjoyed our 1st floor patio. Having 2 bathrooms & 2 tv's were a plus. There were enough appliances, small & large, to use and prepare meals on days when we stayed on the resort. The "lookout" view was phenomenal at anytime of the day. We would definitely stay at Sandyport again & highly recommend it. Thank you for making our stay very memorable.
There were not as many restaurants on site and we had to taxi to places for a variety. At times, we could hear our neighbors upstairs. Some modern upgrades would be nice like outlets near the bed and a larger screen tv.

The room was good, the beach was beautiful. The food was not good at all and way too expensive for what it was.
Not very many places nearby to eat.

Beautiful location and friendly staff
The setting was close to a beautiful beach and really nice restaurants. The facilities were great with pools and slides for entertainment. There was a free taxi service to the supermarket and beach towels and snorkelling gear were available at the reception.
Some work is needed on repairs. The balcony door was broken in our room.

Not bad. Will visit.again
The bed was hard as rocks.

Nice stay close to the beach
The staff were very friendly and helpful. When we arrived, I asked whether it was possible to change from the studio to a room with two queensize beds and they arranged it immediately. The beach is very close by and it was nice that there was a restaurant available.
There were very few sunbeds available on the beach.

Very good
The room , beach and resort were superb. Our stay would have been enhanced if the ‘breakfast room’ also did evening meals , even if only every other night.
There could have been more beach umbrellas and new chairs on the beach.

Great location and fantastic surroundings
The whole area is fantastic! The beach surrounding the hotel blending into the pool is great! Also only a short stroll under the bridge to the public beach. A few bars, restaurants and shops are within the "community" and only about a 10mins drive to the airport of 20mins to downtown Nassau. Lots of games and facilities available for kids and staff were very friendly.
Rooms were a little dated and could be in need of an update
