First and foremost, I have red some other reviews. I have no idea where these people stayed, but it wasn’t the Sandals Royal Bahamian. Everything was excellent. This isn’t our first rodeo to a Sandals. This Sandals was just as good as the first one we have been to. We did have a couple of minor incedent’s, but it is nothing to get upset about. We travel with another couple and since we go there early, our rooms were not ready. No a big deal, so we walked around and ate lunch. When we went back to get our keys, only one room was ready, but after a couple of minutes, the other room was ready. When we got to our room, we had our luggage and our friends were with out. So after an hour or two, our friends luggage arrived. I think they put it in someone else’s room by accident. We had an ocean view room in the Manor Building. I happened to notice our ceiling was leaking. We notified management and came and took care of it.

Rooms:
The rooms are nice. A little bit out of date, but with an ocean view who cares’s. It beats staying at a Super 8. We had a fully stocked bar, which was nice. Since I am in plumbing sales, I always like to look at the plumbing fixtures. I think the bathroom faucets, need to be replaced. The shower head was pretty big.
Restaurants and Bars:
All these complaints about the food and bar service, is completely false. Everywhere we ate was excellent. Kimonos, The Crystal Room, and Cafe Goombay are good choices for dinner. Since we were returning guest to Sandals, they had a welcome back dinner for about 70 guest. You want to talk about getting treated like royalty. This was the best meal all week. They served you a 5 course meal, which included steak and lobster. During dinner they gave us gifts. I got a bottle of rum. The bar service was great. They always made my drink strong. I know people are complaining about how slow service is, well lets remember one thing, you are on their time and they have no time. At the pool bars there are about 2-3 bartenders pumping out drinks left and right. Now at night time, there are fewer bars open, so it might take a few minutes to get a drink, but who cares do you have somewhere to be.
Beach/Pools/Grounds:
Everything on the resort was beautiful and well maintained. I heard people complaining about cigarette butts on the beach, not true either, Now we did find some cups in the water at the beach from the bar. I guess people are to drunk or lazy to return them. At the Windsor Pool, that is the activity pool. All of day time activties. For each activity you participate in or win, you will receive tokens. You can cash the tokens in for gifts.
Activities on and off the Resort/Hotel:
We took a tour of some historical sites and Atlantis. I would recommend to go on this tour, because you get to see some neat things. Especially Atlantis. Another thing that is cool about it, is you get to ask your tour guide all the questions about the island.
