Hotels in Grand BahamaA relaxed 4-star marina-side hotel, not a beachfront resort
8.3/10
A strong marina-side pick for friendly service and easy dining, rather than beachfront luxury.
Pelican Bay is a relaxed 4-star marina-side hotel that delivers comfort and convenience rather than luxury-resort polish. It's a strong pick for an easygoing Freeport stay: Port Lucaya's restaurants and shops are a short walk away, and three pools give you somewhere to unwind. Recent Expedia and Tripadvisor guests repeatedly praise clean, spacious rooms and welcoming staff; balconies overlooking the water add to the appeal.
The main compromise is that waterfront doesn't mean beachfront: a complimentary ferry takes guests to Taino Beach. Room condition also varies—some guests describe updated accommodation, while others find their rooms dated, and a recent Tripadvisor review flags noisy air-conditioning in lower-category rooms. Check the room category carefully, and whether breakfast is included. We'd skip it for sleek luxury, nonstop entertainment or sand directly outside the room.

Best for: couples seeking a relaxed base; travelers who enjoy dining out; families happy with pools and beach excursions
Watch out for: marina-side, not beachfront; room finish and air-conditioning vary; breakfast may cost extra

Rooms: Spacious waterside rooms and suites with balconies; updated and more dated accommodation coexist.
Cleanliness: Consistent recent praise for clean rooms and well-maintained pools.
Service: Friendly, helpful staff are a recurring strength across guest-review sites.
Amenities: Three pools, Sabor restaurant, Bones bar, fitness room and self-service laundry.
Fees and surprises: Check breakfast inclusion; Expedia lists paid late checkout and a seasonal deposit for guests under 25.
