Breezes Resort & Spa Bahamas

Rooms and suites

Rooms range from garden-view rooms to oceanfront suites. Categories include:

• Classic rooms
• Patio Garden View and Patio Pool View rooms on the ground floor
• Partial Ocean View and Oceanfront rooms
• Beach Front Patio rooms
• One Bedroom Oceanfront Suite
• Presidential Suite

Rooms are practical rather than luxurious, and ground-floor patio rooms are handy if you want quick access to the pool and beach.

Restaurants and bars

Breezes has a main buffet, a beach grill and three rotating specialty restaurants. Specialty restaurants listed by tour operators are Italian, local and Asian. Venues include:

• The Banana Boat: international buffet for breakfast, lunch and dinner
• The Beach Grill: casual poolside food during the day
• Martino’s: Italian, a la carte
• Eden: local cuisine, a la carte
• Munasan: Asian, a la carte
• Bars: Lobby Bar, Pool Bar, Pelican Piano Bar and Hurricanes Nightclub

Tour operator listings note that guests must be 25 or older to dine in the specialty restaurants, so groups with younger travelers should plan around the buffet and grill.

Beach, pools and spa

The resort sits on a long stretch of Cable Beach, with calm water in most seasons. The pools, hot tub, beach and fitness center are all included.

A spa is on site, and treatments cost extra.

Activities and entertainment

Daily activities and sports run through the day, and the evenings bring live music and nightly entertainment. Hurricanes Nightclub keeps things going late, which is part of the appeal for younger groups.

There is no kids club, because the resort does not accept children under 14. Tour operators note that non-motorized water sports are no longer part of the standard plan.

Nassau itself is close by. Downtown Nassau has Bay Street shopping, the Queen’s Staircase, Fort Fincastle and the cruise port, and the Straw Market sells local crafts. Boat trips leave daily for snorkeling, swimming with the famous pigs in the Exumas by day trip, and quieter cays around New Providence. Arawak Cay, known locally as the Fish Fry, is a lively spot for conch salad and Bahamian food.

Who it’s best for

• Best for: groups of friends, couples on a budget, families with teens 14 and older, travelers who want a social all-inclusive near downtown Nassau.
• Consider another resort if: you are traveling with young children, want a quiet romantic stay, or expect luxury-level rooms and dining.

Getting there from Lynden Pindling International Airport

Breezes is about 15 minutes from Lynden Pindling International Airport (NAS), roughly 12 km by road.

Tour operators note that airport transfers are not included, so arrange a taxi or a pre-booked transfer.

The Bahamian dollar is pegged one to one with the US dollar, and US dollars are accepted almost everywhere. Visitors need a valid passport. Taxis wait outside the arrivals hall and use set fares by zone, so it is worth confirming the price before you get in. Driving is on the left.
