While visiting Nassau, it was important for me to take a peak and see what our beloved Four Seasons partners have to offer. The Ocean Club site visit was an overall highlight of the entire trip. This well-established resort (formerly One & Only) offers a balance between classic luxury and contemporary style; it is worth it to go a little further from the airport (about a 40-minute drive) to get a complete luxury experience.
The Four Seasons Bahamas, formally known as The Ocean Club, a Four Seasons Resort, is spread out amongst lush gardens and feels spacious for housing 90 rooms, 12 suites, and five villas. Built in the mid-20th century, this resort sits on the north side of Paradise Island. Trust me, Paradise has a rich history of Bahamian roots, progressive artists, and the filming of multiple James Bond movies. The Four Seasons Bahamas is the perfect combination of romance& relaxation while still being very family-friendly.
Our Favorite Things About the Four Seasons Bahamas:
They offer two main room styles: the renovated Crescent Wing with modern decor, white bathrooms, and an ocean view. Then, around the corner is the older Harford Wing nestled in the palms. These dark wood rooms and mosaic tile bathrooms were a personal favorite. With decor options to fit every preference, this resort is perfect for a multi-generational family trip. Each family member will find something to please them, and there is plenty of space for multiple generations looking to break away into their own little personal sanctuaries.
As far as the Villa options, these were the real deal! There are no little bungalow huts here. Instead, they offer multiple spacious rooms, private pools, a full kitchen, and round-the-clock butler service. These garden cottages were tucked away for ultimate privacy, away from the view of guests walking around the resort, but they featured incredible ocean views for guests to take it all in.
While exploring, we came across multiple pool options, a kids’ club, and bikes as transportation around the property. As we passed a clay tennis court, the instructor of over 40 years was relaxing on the sidelines. It was these moments of stepping back in time as if I was going to run into The Rat Pack, that really made this resort come to life for me.
The resort’s spa area was worth the visit alone, offering an unforgettable aroma in the air. This indoor/outdoor setting offers private treatment areas for any service request, large or small. Open-air villas of mosaic tile, private bathtubs, and private gardens provided a truly unique spa service experience.
Restaurant Dune is the only dining location on the entire island with an ocean view. Located just steps from the beach, it offers the ultimate Caribbean dining experience.
The Ocean Club has been a hideaway favorite for some luxury travelers for decades, yet others are only just discovering it. Whichever group you belong to, this gem of a resort will provide true Bahamian service. Its strong historic ties, lush property, and very well-established staff earn it a top spot on my list for an island luxury experience!
