The Bahamas

[Guest]

A favorite provider has suggested we vacation in The Bahamas, and I’m inclined to accommodate. I know the islands aren’t gay-friendly, but some of the resorts seem to be. Any recommendations?

I recommend you pick one of the many safer destinations in the Caribbean.

The man knows what he’s talking about. 

There’s a reason NY sailors refer to it as "the Bronx of the Caribbean". 

I’ve stayed at some of the nicest resorts in the Bahamas….I still didn’t like it.

If you can stay away from the larger islands, the Bahamas can be civilized and beautiful.

The Park Hyatt on St Kitts is beautiful.  Have stayed there multiple times with clients and gone back on my own.

Ocean Club Four Seasons in Nassau is the only hotel worth booking on that horrible island.  It was formerly under the  'One & Only' resort umbrella.

If it's definitely Bahamas you're going for, I'd look into a rental home on smaller islands like Exuma, Eleuthera, Abaco, Harbour Island, etc.

Thanks; I don’t think it’s limited to The Bahamas, but I’ll ask. Appreciate everyone’s suggestions.
