Love this place! The pool areas are so relaxing. Love the bar so close. Don’t miss the frozen drinks and great food at the Jerk Hut! The beach so close is awesome! The staff is so friendly.

We had a fantastic stay at Grand Isle - beautiful property, attentive and friendly staff and great dining. The unit was equipped with all that we needed. Loved spending time at Palapa and dinner at 23 North was fantastic.

Our trip to Exuma was unforgettable, and Grand Isle Resort was a huge part of why. From the moment we arrived, every detail of our stay exceeded expectations. The resort itself is absolutely stunning, crystal-clear water, beautiful villas, and a calm, welcoming atmosphere that instantly puts you at ease. What made our stay truly exceptional, though, were the people. Kaleisha at the front desk was an absolute gem. When our scheduled boat tour was canceled at the last minute, she didn’t hesitate for a second, she jumped into action and found us an alternate option that ended up being even better than we could have imagined. Her kindness, resourcefulness, and warm personality turned what could have been a disappointment into one of the highlights of our trip. At the bar, Carlton was another standout. He makes the most delicious piña coladas we’ve ever tasted (seriously, they deserve an award!) and is such a great conversationalist. His friendly energy and attention to detail made every visit to the bar feel special. And Princess, our waitress at 23° North, was simply superb. Her service was impeccable, she anticipated everything we needed, all with a smile that made us feel right at home. Every staff member we encountered at Grand Isle embodied true hospitality. You can tell they take pride in making guests feel cared for and welcome. We left feeling relaxed, grateful, and already planning our next visit. Grand Isle isn’t just a resort, it’s an experience, and the people make it unforgettable.

We had an amazing time at Grand Isle. The staff were professional and friendly. The atmosphere was laid back and was not overcrowded by any means. You could sit on the beach in peace and made it a very personal experience. The grounds and villas were immaculate. We will be back again next year.

A very warm and welcoming resort and extremely family friendly. The staff go out of their way to make you feel welcome. We had an incredibly memorable stay in a beautiful villa.
