The Island House is a unique property on the island. Quiet and exclusive. The property and rooms are beautiful and the staff goes above and beyond to provide great service. While it’s a very small hotel, the dining options provide great variety. We weren’t sure what to expect with the beach access, but we were driven in a private car and picked up whenever we wanted. The private beach is beautiful and quiet, with a beachfront bar and food. There is not a lot to do around the property and you will need to take a 30 minute ride into town for most excursions.

I'm almost reluctant to give a review, in fear that too many people will find TIH, and its specialness will disappear. But to say anything bad would be an outright crime. TIH was EXACTLY what my tired mind, body, and spirit needed. The property is clean, the staff are professional, and the rooms are excellent. But what I found most valuable was how quiet and peaceful the property is. Calming but not boring light music in the background, calming and grounding modern color scheme, and generally quiet staff. If you are a traveler looking for a place where you can read by the pool, no social media dominated space, and no upselling, then I highly recommend TIH! I will definitely be back...and soon!

We've traveled to almost every island there is...but hadn't been to Bahamas for a very long time. We chose The Island House because we don't like the high-rise elevator type resorts. We were not disappointed. The Island House is a perfect boutique resort, ALL the staff are friendly and efficient, the grounds are immaculate and the rooms are awesome. All rooms are the same layout (which is huge and with amazing bathroom) they just have different locations on the property - but with 30 rooms none are far away from the gorgeous pool and common areas. No running down early to throw a book on a lounge chair, no fighting other guests for amenities. We chose The Island House because the room price was extremely reasonable compared to some outrageous prices we saw at the 2 big resort locations (you know who they are). We were thrilled to death that we chose The Island House - it's super classy and we will definitely stay again. Their 2 main restaurants are excellent too. PS: on our last 2 days there, John Malkovich and his lady checked in for a few days...if it's good enough for someone who could stay anywhere - it should be good enough for you!

My room was very clean, spacious and comfortable. The staff was friendly, pleasant helpful and welcoming. The hotel offered a variety of restaurants for dining; my favorite was Yellowbell. I enjoyed my stay here because it provided a calm and laid back environment. I was able to rest and relax and have fun. My only concern was the description of the room, The Marina View Room, which did not offer a view of the Marina. The Manager advised this was the actual name for the 2nd floor rooms and not rooms that allow you to see the Marina.They are working on changing that description on their website because it is very misleading. However, overall I would say it is a very nice and inviting hotel where the staff is attentive to your needs. I would recommend it for your next vacation.

Convenient for the airport. Rooms were nice and facilities ( pool and gym). However, the gym air con was not on high enough and therefore too hot, there was no water in the gym in the morning, there were no towels in the pool showers and generally the service to get drinks outside was slow.
