Family Expert Tips & Helpful Hints

Sheraton's rates are less cotly than the Westin's.
Tots can only stay at the nursery for two hours (ten dollars per hour).

The Spread:
On the Grand Bahama Island's beachfront, which served as a backdrop for the Pirates of the Caribbean movie sequels, the Westin and the Sheraton offer a combined 1,212 rooms on 377 acres of oceanfront property. Having two resorts on one site means you get to enjoy the same facilities—pools, powdery beaches, two golf courses, tennis courts, more than a dozen restaurants, the kids' program, and the adult–oriented Senses Spa and the Isle of Capri Casino—whether you choose the plusher Westin accommodations or bed down in the comfortable and cost–efficient rooms at the Sheraton. While on the island, take time to learn about and interact with dolphins at UNEXSO Grand Bahama and to swim and picnic at beautiful Gold Rock Beach at Lucayan National Park.

Why Families Love It:
There's no shortage of play space at this enormous property. Along with ocean swimming, snorkeling, kayaking, and sailing, you and your kids have a choice of four seaside pools in which to splash—Sugar Mill is the one with the waterfalls and slide. Camp, for ages three to 12, opens daily from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. (full– and half–day programs). There is no charge for camp during the day. Along with beach Olympics, pool swimming, and tennis tournaments, the camp incorporates bits of Bahamian culture into fun activities. Kids craft Junkanoo masks, learn straw weaving, listen to stories about the Lucayan Indians, and discover rake 'n' scrape local music.

During peak times—Christmas, March, April, and May—the resort usually offers evening programs from Thursday to Sunday, 6 p.m. to 10 p.m., and in summer on Fridays and Saturdays only. Thursday nights' Moonlight Fun celebrates pirates with a treasure hunt and walk–the–plank activities. With Fridays' Junkanoo Jam, Kids make hats, beat drums and sashay in a parade. On Saturdays, there's a Pajama Party with movies, Karaoke, and a talent show. Evening camp costs $20 without dinner and $35 with a meal.

Infants to tots under three years old are cared for at Grandma Lucaya's nursery, open 9 a.m. to noon and 1 p.m. to 5 p.m.; however, little ones may only stay there for up to two hours per day ($10 per hour).

Special Events & Activities:
Sign up for activities such as pool volleyball, nature walks, kayak races, and coconut bowling games.
