Albany Resort

New Providence is a relatively small island and the capital of Nassau makes up a large portion of it. For first time visitors, it is the perfect place to stay because its a very convenient base to explore all Bahamian islands from. Between the shops, bars, and restaurants, and the historic and cultural attractions, the city gives you an unparalleled insight into life in The Bahamas too.

New Providence and the surrounding Bahamian islands are swarming with family-friendly, couples only, and LGBTQ+ friendly beach resorts where you can relax and spend quality time with your loved ones in a luxury island setting.

Of course, Nassau is the most exciting place to stay for those who want to delve into the Bahamas’ vibrant island nightlife. However, the smaller yet equally special Paradise Island also comes alive at night with Caribbean drum beats as people swarm to its exciting bars and clubs.

Keen snorkellers and divers might prefer to stay on Andros Island for easy access to one of the world’s largest and most wildlife-rich reefs. Aside from world-class diving, it offers an unreal choice of beautiful beaches to laze on and sumptuous restaurants to dine in.

With over 700 islands forming The Bahamas archipelago, the choice of places to stay is seemingly limitless. Where you choose to stay should depend on how secluded you want to be. While places like Nassau, Grand Bahama, and Paradise Island are often bustling with holiday makers, there’s plenty of quieter lesser-known islands like Cat Island and South Bimini to escape to if you dream of total alone time instead.
