BEST HOTELS ON GRAND BAHAMAS
 
Has anyone stayed on GB OR Port Lucaya? If so need some input (pretty quick) Thanks

We stayed at the Sheraton Our Lucaya and really enjoyed the property. The pools and beach were great. Food was very expensive but we found good, reasonably-priced meals across the street at the Marketplace. If we return, I'd stay at the Westin which shares the same resort but has nicer rooms.

We have also stayed at Our Lucaya at the Sheraton. As stated above, the Westin has nicier rooms but then again it costs more to stay there. They a both share the same pools and grounds and facilities. It is a very nice resort and if you can get a good rate would be a good choice. Be aware that the food and drinks are EXPENSIVE with GREAT BIG $$$$$$$$$$ - to get best value walk across the street to the Port Lucaya Market Place for a nice selection of dining/drinking places for less money. The food and drink is quite good at the Sheraton/Westin but not worth the inflated prices they charge.

Another good choice would be the Pelican Bay, located adjacent to the Market Place and just across the street from Sheraton. It is not right on the beach but the beach at Our Lucaya is public and a 5 minute walk if you stroll slowly. Pelican Bay has great rooms and suites and is also quite nice.

Have fun. Be sure to check out the good Irish Pub Shenanigans in the market place and if Jeff Butler is there tell him hello.
