There exists a place in the Bahamas, away from the resort-lined beaches and popular spots, where an unadulterated and supremely private environment surrounds you completely - and that place is Kamalame Cay. Its very own private island of nearly 100 acres, this award-winning resort is full of bright tropical flowers, towering palms, and views of the cerulean blue ocean. An exclusive marina, luxury spa, and three miles of soft, white sand beaches are just the beginning of this ideal scene for your Caribbean getaway. Barefoot chic is the style of Kamalame Cay's 19 rooms and suites, each donning Bahamian- inspired décor and furnishings, full of art, books, and unique amenities. Depending on your accommodations, enjoy a kitchenette, wet bar, soaking tub, or covered veranda - plus of course, cool sea breezes and views of the island all around. Additionally, The Great House is a central gathering place where you can kick back, unwind on the garden terrace, share cocktails, and follow the path to the resort's heated freshwater pool.

This was my third visit in six years. Why do I return ? The island is beautiful but...with each visit, the quality of every other aspect of Kamalame Cay deteriorates. This time...1. The property is poorly maintained , for example, the showers were so heavily limescaled that they did not work (photos below) at all - no water flowed. 2. Housekeeping is weak - I found fish hooks on the floor and my son nearly ripped his toe off. 3. No curtains next to beds, 4. No soap in bathrooms...I pointed out all of these issues on day 1 and on our departure day, still no shower repair and no curtains. I removed the fish hooks ! 5. Pool area is littered and was not cleaned during the day. 6. Beach was not cleared of plastic and needed some care and attention. On check out , everyone was very casual and nonplussed by our experience. This is a five star price and setting with one star service and maintenance. The Bahamas is now blessed with more choices and Kamalame needs to up its game to compete. I will not return

My visit to Kamalame was wonderful Just the little things like a box of fresh pasties and fresh fruit delivered in a straw box in the morning and fresh cookies greeting you on your porch were so thoughtful The staff was very friendly and accommodate our every need. Everyone visiting Kamalame must snorkel the Andros Great Barrier Reef! The corals and sealife are absolutely amazing!! I cannot wait to return to Kamalame!!

Fabulous stay at Kamalame Cay! The property is absolutely gorgeous, lush and tropical. The people are friendly and helpful. Shoutout to Sampson for going out of his way every day to make our stay more enjoyable. Only drawback…. The cottages and common areas need some TLC.

This is truly one of the most beautiful and unique resorts in North America. With that said, it is not for everyone. If you like five-star service, night life, lots dining choices and constant activity then I would suggest going to a Four Seasons or St Regis and looking at other islands with more action than Andros. However, if you enjoy seclusion, relaxation and natural beauty with barefoot luxury this is place for you. We stayed in a bungalow which was small, but very charming and beachfront. I mean you walk right from your bungalow onto the beach, and it is amazing. There is no large resort that can offer this access or privacy. The beach is gorgeous, about 3 plus miles long and we did not see anyone else during any of our walks. North Beach is a short golf cart ride and is also deserted and amazingly beautiful especially at Sunset. We saw stingrays, sharks, dolphins, so many turtles and birds of all sorts. The staff is incredibly helpful and so nice. We actually got married on the island and our coordinator, Anissa, made sure that everything was perfect. This place has an island vibe, so service is laid back and you might have to ask more than once, but it since it is paradise it is all good. The dining options are limited, but the food was fabulous at the Tiki Bar and the Great House. Selections changed daily so we were not bored at all. Again, the wait staff at both locations were attentive and so friendly. Make sure to have the Samson cocktail! The pool was lovely, and we had it to ourselves almost every day. Plenty of excursions with knowledgeable guides. We went snorkeling and it was wonderful. Long story short, this is a laid-back slice of paradise with amazing natural beauty. There is not TV and no Wi-Fi in the rooms so get ready to do nothing but relax and enjoy the scenery. We will be coming back again and again.

Kamalame Kay was the absolute highlight of our Island Hopping Trip in the Bahamas. From the very first moment, we felt truly welcome by the staff and our accommodation (Rock House) was just stunning. Just steps from the sea, secluded behind lush green, and some palm trees. The house was spacey and comfortable and the interior was world class in terms of coziness and beach house atmosphere but top standard. We went kayaking on the land side from the island, which was interesting, seeing turtles and stingrays. Food was splendid and the best we had in the entire Bahamas. Definitely a place to go even though prices are obviously elevated as you would expect for this standard.

"Just wanted to sound the trumpet: the best getaway place is Kamalame Cay, the Bahamas.
We recently bought at auction a six-night vacation package through Luxury Link to what has to be the best kept secret in the world.
The accommodations were five-star, the service six-star, the food was out of this world, and the staff makes you feel like one of the family. If you are looking for a romantic get away, look no further: Kamalame Cay has it all. When you leave the only thought you have is: When can I return?"
