Grand Isle Resort & Spa

A week was not long enough - II would love to spend a month at this amazing location. We had a 2 story town house style accommodation that came with a golf cart. The beach was just out the window past a strip of gold course. Emerald Bay is the most beautiful un crowded beach! It is absolutely paradise

The staff were super nice especially Paul at the front office. The views were incredible and the Exumas are Spectacular!!. The Big Problem was the room and the concierge service. We came for 2 days of fishing and 2 days of local fun. We confirmed our fishing trips repeatedly many times prior to arrival because it was the highlight of our trip. They COMPLETELY messed up BOTH of our fishing trips and ruined our vacation. We even paid to travel to the deep sea charter at the other end of the island only to find out that a fishing charter was never scheduled and we had to pay the $$ cab service all the way back. Fishing trip #1 completely GONE and RUINED!! We still had the full day of bone fishing to look forward to again triple confirmed with Grand Isle concierge ahead of arrival and once again a Disaster.!!...The charter was a No Show!! We waited at the front office at 7:30am and NO ONE showed and later we were told No Charter!! This trip was a TOTAL DISASTER---HORRIBLE. Now onto the room....The master bed was broken and falling apart and the mattress was so bad that my wife and I could hardly bend over because our backs hurt soooo bad from the chep mattress. The master shower back up with gross stuff and they cam and "fixed it" only to have it all back up again so we could not use the master shower. We have never wrote anything on social media but felt this had to be provided for anyone spending TONS of $$ to go here as we did. The worst part is the general manager nor any manager ever came to us and No Manager ever said a word to us. Again, the general staff were extremely nice but the concierge service is the WORST we have ever encountered in 30+ years of travel to dozens of high end resorts. It is too bad that the Concierge and the Room were so bad because the Exuma Island is GORGEOUS!!

We had a wonderful experience at Grand Isle Resort. We had a 3 bedroom villa with an Ocean View which was perfect in every way. The kitchen was great, with what seemed like brand new stainless steel appliances, and the pots / pans etc. were great. The restaurant was perfectly ok, but if you are staying for a while, you will want some alternatives. There is a small grocery store with the basics within 5 minutes from the resort and then we hit the "bigger" grocery store in town for more options. The beach is perfect. The sand was white and soft and even though we were told the resort was sold out, there were never more than 30 or so people on the beach. I don't think I have ever seen water that color. It's absolutely beautiful. We used the paddle boards and kayaks and they were in great shape. The pool is very nice and right next to the restaurant and bar. All in all, this is a wonderful place. The island itself is very low key, the people are very friendly (for some reason, the least friendly people on the island are those who work in the restaurant... a number of guests thought the same thing... but they are still nice enough) and it's easy to get to. We recommend!

I just can say that this place is the best I've ever been. Their employees always have a smile. The rooms are really comfortable and have awesome views. I highly recommend to visit Grand Isle and you will never forget the experience

Our family stayed in a three bedroom villa oceanfront. The view was spectacular, in front of our villa was palm trees, blue water and part of golf course. The greens were absolutely perfect for golfing. We rented a golf cart to get around the resort. However, it’s not necessary you can walk the grounds of the resort. Off my balcony I had a beautiful lush palm tree loaded with coconuts. This place is like a home away from home with all the kitchen amenities, washer and dryer. One night we had a bonfire on the beach. It’s a great place for families.
