Really good Culinary Delights

I had the pleasure of dining at Graycliff and it was an lovely experience! The atmosphere was cozy, and the selection of delicacies on the menu was impressive. To top it off, the wine room tour took us back in time, and I loved relaxing with a hand-rolled cigar while enjoying a fine after-dinner drink. It's a must-visit if you're in the Bahamas!

Piano Lounge Bliss

The piano lounge at Graycliff was a highlight of our trip! The live piano music created a lovely atmosphere that made it easy to unwind. We were treated to complimentary champagne upon entry, which was a good surprise. I can't recommend this experience enough-it was truly enchanting!

6.8/10

This hotel offers a unique charm with luxurious accommodations, but it falls short on service and dining experiences. While the rooms are spacious and comfortable, the lack of operational facilities and pricey dining options detract from the overall value. Be prepared for slow service and limited breakfast offerings, but enjoy the beautiful pool area if it's maintained better than during my stay.

My stay at Graycliff was a mix of delightful experiences and a few disappointments. The ambiance of the hotel is charming, and the food was exquisite, especially the pastries and steaks.

Staying at this hotel was a mixed experience. The property is steeped in history and boasts a stunning pool area that feels like a Roman bath. However, my room was disappointing and didn't match the garden or pool view I had booked. The dining experience was fantastic, particularly the wine cellar tour, but the service lacked consistency. Overall, it's worth visiting for drinks or dining but maybe not ideal for a stay.
