Valentines Resort & Marina

Just back from a cold weather escape to Valentines Resort and I would rate it a " WOW" !! My first visit - so did not know what to expect ... but definitely recommending to friends ! Thank you's to Chris at the Bar, and Curt for fresh flowers in my room and taking such good care of us !! Beach chairs at pink sands perfect ! And fantastic happy hour for sunsets at marina .

Great selection for first time to Bahamas. Lee and staff were professional in every regard.

Quaint hotel at a great location. Private beach close by. Recommend renting a golf cart to get around the island.

Lovely hotel, The rooms were beautiful clean and with all the amenities you would need. Staff were really friendly. Great bar with lovely food. The hotel was a great base to explore the island, I would recommend this hotel.

It was amazing.

We were on Harbour Island for a wedding and the “recovery brunch” was held at Valentines. They offered a brunch of fresh fruit, scrambled eggs , breakfast potatoes, mini pancakes, sausage and bacon, and more. It was fresh and delicious. We were so impressed we came back that night to watch football at their outdoor bar and have dinner. It’s a beautiful location and the food was delicious.

The property was beautiful and extremely clean. All the staff were friendly and helpful.

Restaurant was closed and no activities was pool and bar were good.

We liked that it was nice and quiet and very relaxing. The rooms are very spacious. We didn’t like housekeeping banging on the door so early in the morning. We didn’t have a “do not disturb” sign to hang outside on the door.

Very disappointed in this resort, we paid over $1200 per night for. If you are searching for a hotel with "beach" and "pool" I would take these two criteria off of this listing. The beach was literally the public beach with private chairs set up. There was zero service at the beach, no place for drinks, food, no toy rentals, etc. Nothing. It is completely empty because of this issue. Guests give up and eventually end up at Ms. V's where you can easily rent chair set up for $25, she has great drinks and serves lunch/ snacks, has free beach toys for kids and you can rent boogie boards. It is very lively where she is on the exact same beach of "pink" sands. So, save some money and get a place without a beach amenity. The pool is lackluster, again, no staff. The picture of the guy at the bar serving, is not true, they do have the set up but there is no alcohol or happy face. No music in the background, nothing. So take that off of your criteria or find a hotel with a more charming pool than this. Cleanliness and maintenance is also a problem. There was trash all over the place in the garden beds, the same trash was in the beds outside our room the entire stay. Plastic bottles to paper wrappers... not well kept at all. I went to the front desk for something and there were 3 people there needing something fixed in their room. Our room had a broken seal to the shower and lights out, AC not working well... and we just didn't bother telling them, it was clear they don't care for the upkeep. You also have to ask to have your room cleaned! For the price you would think they would include and it is, but you have to ask. We didn't get fresh pool towels until the 3rd day, which is why I was in the lobby. Loud, we didn't get one good night's sleep there between the rooster and the noise from outside/ rooms above us. Poor construction and we heard every move. We did really like a few waitresses and Kurt who helps with baggage, etc. Some waitresses we couldn't figure out until my husband said it feels like we are putting them out to order something. (the bigger guy especially and he couldn't look us in the eye). So, know what you are getting and maybe look for something better for the money.
