The Best All-Inclusive Hotels to Book in the Bahamas
Dazzling sugar-white beaches and translucent seas make the Bahamas a dream destination. And if you want to truly zone out and shift down a gear, a hotel holiday with everything thrown in may be just the ticket. Bahamas all-inclusive resorts range from luxe honeymoon hideaways with their own private islands to remote eco-outposts with world-class diving. With packages including everything from fine dining and potent rum cocktails to scuba diving lessons and rock climbing, read on to find the perfect all-inclusive Bahamas hotel for you – bookable on Culture Trip.
Small Hope Bay Lodge, for eco-aware holidaymakers
Lodge
This eco-conscious retreat, on the wild, unspoilt island of Andros, doesn’t feel like your typical all-inclusive hotel. It attracts nature lovers and diving enthusiasts, who come for the pristine barrier reef just off the white-sand bay at the resort (a free scuba or snorkel lesson is included in your stay). Guests are free to borrow kayaks, paddleboards and bikes to explore the island. Back at base, there’s a solar-powered hot tub on the beach, rustic-chic cabins and a homely lodge where guests congregate for buffet-style feasts such as freshly caught lobster and pineapple-shredded pork.
Breezes, for teenage escapades
Resort
There’s a party atmosphere at this Nassau all-inclusive on Cable Beach, and you should avoid spring break if you’d prefer a quieter holiday. Unlike many other adults-only resorts, the minimum age here is 14, making it a good choice if you have easily bored teens. The decor is lived-in rather than bling, but the hotel is great value – go for the super-inclusive package and you can try everything from rock climbing to flying trapeze. There are well-kept tennis courts, and volleyball and kayaking will help fill your days – unless you’d rather just laze by one of the three freshwater pools.
Warwick Paradise Island, for laid-back luxury
Hotel
Gazing over bustling Nassau Harbour, this sophisticated adults-only retreat is a jewel on Paradise Island, known for its high-end resorts. The vibe here is laid-back luxury, with understated rooms in chic monochrome tones, floor-to-ceiling glass and knockout views. There’s a pretty little beach and an enormous lagoon-style pool. For those postcard-worthy stretches of alabaster Bahamian sand, you’ll need to catch the free hotel shuttle to nearby Cabbage Beach. The all-inclusive package is generous, and even includes tips – there’s everything here from pan-Asian fare to steak. Don’t miss live acts at Junkanoo Beat entertainment venue after sunset.
Sandals Emerald Bay, for romance in the air
Hotel, Resort
On a swoon-worthy stretch of sugar-soft sand on Great Exuma, this is one of the most romantic hotels in the Sandals collection and draws a loved-up crowd of honeymooners and couples. It’s adults-only, so there are no rambunctious kids to spoil the serenity. Glide between private poolside cabanas, the tropical-themed spa and the restaurants – there are 11, from dress-up dinners at La Parisienne to barefoot dining at the Jerk Shack. An impressive spread of activities is also included, from scuba diving to golfing – if you can tear yourself away from your sunlounger, that is.
