Iffy, very iffy unless you are just sleeping there, maybe one night!

Reviewed Aug 10, 2016
So I visited the Bahamas and stayed at this quaint place. I really liked the Island feel and the price was right. it wasn't high tech, it wasn't gorgeous but for what I was doing it was ideal, I was just sleeping there to save money paid $120.00 for the night.The balconies have what I believe are guava fruit hanging and I must have eaten 10 of them. Across the street is the entry to the beach. Here is my take stay but only if you are a couple, or a few friends. This is not family friendly by any means, and it is dimly lit. No room service of any kind or internet access. Would I stay again? maybe but again just for one night.
Date of stay: August 2016
Room Tip: In the case of this place it's six or half dozen!

Great little place. Believe there are fifteen rooms..We just dined here one night ...lovely pool environment. Excellent fish meal. Cook served us. Lovely man who told us about the hotel . Nettie The woman who owns this accommodation is an eccentric artist and the whole interior is amazing...so colourful and paintings very abstract. Great furniture in reception area... and interesting ornamentation surrounds you..Good location on Wesy Bay Street with local bus to Nassu one way and further up coast the other. Close to Food store too! Quiet location away from the high rise scene...Peaceful serene and recommended for dining..

My family and I took a trip to the Bahamas in September. It was our first time to the beautiful island. This hotel was not in the city which is exactly what my family and I were looking for!! We love this hotel its family owned and very family oriented. Although, it doesn't have the same amenities we are used to in a hotel we still loved the different atmosphere. A unique feature of this hotel is the cultural attraction in the back of the hotel. We were able to learn a lot of the history of the island. If it's your first time and you want to explore the island I don't recommend this hotel as it is in a more residential area. If you want a quiet and locally owned cultural experience, I highly recommend this hotel. Plus after reading other reviews I decided to write one because in none of the pictures is it near a beach and me and my family of 4 felt extremely safe.

Do NOT stay at this hotel. It is poorly run and in a dangerous area. We had a 1 night layover after a missed flight. The airline made our reservation (1 room, 2 adults, 2 children, 2 double beds - $175). While on the phone they also made and additional reservation for another family of four. We heard both sides of the conversation. After a $35 taxi to the hotel late at night, we were told that we need 2 rooms for each family for $175 each or $350 per family. We argued and they agreed to the original $175. As each family entered their respective rooms (single double bed), the desk clerk chased the other family to their room and kicked them out. A few minutes later we were evicted as well. We were told we had to pay an additional $175. The other father and I refused. After heated arguments, they eventually let us stay, in the room we originally booked for the agreed upon price. This was clearly a well practiced shakedown operation. I am reporting them to the American Embassy in The Bahamas. The rooms are dirty, very old, the windows and doors don't lock well. I slept in a chair by the door because I was worried about an intruder, We had a late night door pounding and phone call (did not answer or open). Fled the next morning after daylight as soon as we could get a cab and waited 6 hours at airport instead. It was like something from a movie about the bad things that can happen to unwary travelers. I have never written a review and have nothing but good things to say about the rest of my trip. Long Island was wonderful. The people, beaches, snorkeling, accommodations and food were great. I have traveled from the South Pacific to Europe, I have stayed in houses, hotels, motels, trailers, tents, cabins, slept in cars and airports - THIS is by far the worst place i have ever stayed.

Room tip: Pray for a second floor room. Try to find a broomstick or something to block close the sliding door.

Won't stay again. This place is a dump. Not clean, dimly lit and tiny rooms. Bathroom was last renovated in the 70s. The pool is over-chlorinated and really hurt the eyes. On a very busy street, makes access quite dodgy without an area for pickup and drop off

My husband and I stayed here on our way back to the US From our vacation on eleauthera island. We were told Orange Hill was the closest hotel but it was fully booked. Casuarinas is an old hotel (old window unit but it worked great, old somewhat stained lampshades) but the service is great. The guy at the office arranged a taxi for us and called and reminded us and the taxi driver about daylight savings time. The room was clean (no sticky floors) but the bed was hard. I would recommend this if Orange Hill is full. The friendly staff is the highlight.
