michaelaz Posted October 16, 2016 #1 Share Posted October 16, 2016 We will be there in 3 weeks, still trying to figure out which resorts were damaged the most and what to do. Any updates ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corley05 Posted October 18, 2016 #2 Share Posted October 18, 2016 I just got back from Nassau (on the sky, were in port 10/15). We went to the British Colonial Hilton and it was fine. I didn't hear anyone say that any of the resorts were closed. We met some people that went to Atlantis and it was fine. Hope this helps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, what did you think of it - was it a decent value or next time would you do something else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corley05 Posted October 18, 2016 #4 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Did you do the day pass with food credit at Colonial Hilton? If so, what did you think of it - was it a decent value or next time would you do something else? We did do the pass with credit. I don't think we had a choice to just get a pass without the credit. The food credit went very quickly and we felt the drinks were not great. However, we did feel like it was worth the cost and enjoyed our day there. I am going back to Nassau next month but we are not planning on a beach day that trip. The wifi was only given to us because we are hilton honor members, or so she said at the front desk. The wifi was only okay inside or right by the building, no wifi at the beach. We didn't need a reservation we just showed up and they had plenty of space.

cruiseapril Posted October 23, 2016 #6 Share Posted October 23, 2016 We enjoy the British Colonial Hilton and also the Melia (on Cable Beach.) We feel they are 2 of the really good day passes in Nassau. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trekker954 Posted October 30, 2016 #7 Share Posted October 30, 2016 How much is the Hilton charging? Any discounts for being Hilton Gold? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corley05 Posted November 1, 2016 #8 Share Posted November 1, 2016 How much is the Hilton charging? Any discounts for being Hilton Gold? It was $65 pp and they only took a credit card. My friend brought cash and I had to pay for her. There was no discount for being a HH member at all other than the wifi. I asked if I could get some kind of points from this day pass and they told me to call HH after I got home and see if they would give me some points... I didn't bother. We really enjoyed the day there. Its not a huge place but its very easy to get to and a good first trip to Nassau for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you go to a Bar or restaurant for your food or was it ordered and delivered on the beach? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you go to a Bar or restaurant for your food or was it ordered and delivered on the beach? There is a beach bar/grill, opens around 11 I think, that we ordered from. A guy brought us a menu and then delivered our food. I think the credit could be used inside the resort as well but we just ate on the beach. The food and drinks were more expensive than I expected. The $40 credit got a burger type sandwich, a drink, and a bottle of water. There were more reasonably priced bottles of water in the gift shop that I found as we were leaving.

gibsontrio Posted November 2, 2016 #13 Share Posted November 2, 2016 Can you use the pools at the Hilton ? Any chance you know if they are heated?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
corley05 Posted November 2, 2016 #14 Share Posted November 2, 2016 The BCH had a pool that we could have used. We didn't go in but lots were in it while we were there. I don't know if it was heated. There were loungers and little palapas (i think that is what they are called) on the beach we could use. The only thing they told us was that the beds were for hotel guests. I think there were day people in them tho. We got there around 10a and had a front row lounger and shade spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
