Pink sands plus ???
 

Thinking of staying at Pink sands for 4 nights in March. What would be a good add on to that for a full week? Fly from Newark through either NAS or Eleuthera. Don't want Atlantis as we are without the kids.. is their another island / hotel to balance the week. We are beach, restaurant and book people.

I highly recommend the Ocean Club on Paradise Island. It is a great, graceful getaway spot-polar opposite of Atlantis. Have been twice and loved it!

I agree, but unfortunately they are completely booked during that period. Does anyone have any thoughts on Sandals in Nassau?

I would suggest the Raddison on CAble BEach, not as nice as Pink Sands, but it is an upscale resort with a lovely beach, good restaurants and easy to get to from Harbour Island.

If you tried any of the other outislands it you would be spending alot of time traveling.

I can also suggest CocoDiMama on Eleuthera as a very laid back resort, right on the beach. It is on the small side. The restaurant there has also gotten good reviews.

From Harbour Island, you can take a water taxi to Eleuthera and then a cab down to the resort.

There is a website for more info and pictures and I think it's www.cocodimama.com

Have a great time, you will love Harbour Island.

Thanks Wantsomesun, I've been there already and am hooked!... trying to figure out the FAST FERRY schedule vs. Flights to EWR right now, so I can maixmize the time on Harbour Island.

You also might consider taking Jet Blue out of JFK, they just started flying into Nassau as of last month and I think the flight is early am. There were 2 sailings a day with the Fast Ferry, so you may be able to make the afternoon sail.

Another alternative is to stay on Nassau for a day or so, and then take the early 6:30am Bahamas Air flight into N. Eleuthera.

There is also a charter flight outfit out of Nassau and I think it's Sandpiper Air. I have flown with them once and it was very convenient.

Have a great time.
