Resort is in perfect location to downtown and to watch the ships dock and sail away! The rooms are nice but the AC does not stay on as it’s a motion sensor. We had engineering look at it the first night because it kept shutting off and was very warm in the room and musty. He said he can’t do anything to fix because it’s motion activated and the motion sensor is by the bathroom so it will turn off if we are laying in bed. This is horrific design. We asked for a diff room the next morning and they said they will send head of engineering up. The issue remained the same! Literally I woke up in a sweat and the room smelling horrible every single hour and would get up and walk by the bathroom and the AC would cut back on for 15-30 mins then turn off again. This has to be resolved. In addition the pools were cloudy and while they were cleaning them often, I am not sure they know how to use proper chemicals and filtration. I would not stay here again because of the AC and not being able to sleep. It is a shame because the hotel is beautiful and the location excellent! And all the employees we encountered were wonderful as well!

The hotel and grounds were lovely. Very clean, comfortable, and wonderful guest service. I appreciate the close accessibility to other locations - it was easy to enjoy the beach, walk to shop or explore, or try a new restaurant.

The issues began when we arrived. There is no parking on property. If you rent a car, you must valet park or park down the street at another property. The cost is ridiculous at $35 per day. WOW! The hotel is aesthetically pleasing. It's beautiful! The front desk staff was exceptional! They know their stuff. Katrina, the concierge, was absolutely fantastic. She helped us book all of our excursions. She knows her stuff about the islands. When we made it to our rooms, they smelled strongly of rotting fish, which never went away. We were told that the smell comes from the water coming through the pipes. The staff at all of the dining establishments on property were rude. For some reason, they seem to think that a bad attitude is worth more tip money. (FYI: Every place you eat in Nassau adds a 15% gratuity to your ticket, which you cannot change even when the service is horrible.) We will NOT return to this property!!

The hotel overall was great, but it really stood out to me was the singer they contracted for the bar area. I think her name was Patrice Marie. She made her stay extra special.

Where must I begin to the staffing and management of British Colonial I must say you guys have my made our stay one to remember. The friendly and helpful staff that work in the food and beverage department they show hands down professional and service with a smile. The breakfast staff in the morning thank you so much for always meeting us with a smile and telling us thank you for coming. But a big shout out goes to the Mahogany Club Staff to Our waiters everything was uniformed everything was nicely organized and everyone was on one accord when it came down to service. Last but not least To the lovely Hostess Janice that works in Mahogany she is such a kind soul always helpful a great listener and was the most wonderful smile you can tell she has been a hostess for a very long time and know the correct standard and procedures In how to deal with guest matters and problems. Me and my friend well surely be back for the summer. Thank You British Colonial for a excellent time
