Property Amenities
Featuring eight private treatment villas suitable for couples as well as singles, the resort's health spa employs Asian holistic rituals and includes a beauty salon offering private rooms with hardwood floors and gilt-frame mirrors. Decorated with Balinese carved-wood accents and Thai silk pillows, each villa includes side-by-side Javanese-teak treatment tables and a two-person shower with oversized rainfall showerhead. Outside, a private garden-courtyard contains a two-person Balinese daybed under a wood-shingle roof, as well as a two-person jetted tub.
Signature offerings include the Ocean Club massage (two therapists employing five massage techniques), Elemis Aroma Spa Ocean Wraps (heated seaweed body masks followed by massage), and Elemis Fennel Cleansing Cellulite and Colon Therapy (detoxifying body mask and massage).
Stretching from the One&Only Ocean Club to near Nassau Harbor, the 0.25-mile-long gardens (built by Huntington Hartford II and modeled after the French original in Versailles) consist of seven terraces graced by Carrera-marble and bronze statues, including two of Empress Josephine reclining at the gardens' entrance; a 12th century Greek statue of Hercules; and two giant bronze statutes of Hartford heroes Franklin D. Roosevelt and explorer David Livingston. The gardens' apex features a 12th century Augustinian cloister from France that Hartford purchased from William Randolph Hearst.
Located on the lip of a low bluff between sloping lawns and the beach, a weathered-wood deck pierced by a single palm tree supplies a panoramic ocean view for daily complimentary one-hour yoga classes. Snuggled again a seagrape hedge nearby, a tent-cabana offers the same view for open-air massage. Hammocks stretch between palm trees throughout the resort's 35 acres.

“Perfect Place To Relax”
This was such a beautiful place to stay. The staff was very attentive. Our butlers were fantastic and made our time there very special. This is the perfect place to de-stress. We stayed in the Cresent Wing. Our rooms (2036 & 2038) had the most beautiful view of the ocean. We will be going back.
“Don't miss this place”
We arrived in mid-September for a 3 night trip to celebrate our first wedding anniversary. The staff and facilities were top notch. Every detail was perfect. We highly recommend this spot during the shoulder season - September is a slow month on the island and if you can escape the hurricanes, you will be spoiled!
“Very relaxing, great golf spot”
We had a great time at the Ocean Club, other that a glitch with getting towels in a timely fashion, it was fantastic. Great spot. don't expect to check in before 4PM if your going
“Bahamas @ its finest!”
Superb! Beyond its rating! Worth every penny and more. Everything was absolutely beautiful. The service was impeccable. We had everything we wanted @ the drop of a hat. Top Class!
“best hotel stay in quite some time.”
While my expectations were high going to the property, my stay there exceeded those expectations. The hotel staff were extremely polite and accommodating, especially the butler assigned to our room. I would definitely make a return visit to this property.
“Quiet, Serene and Gorgeous Grounds”
Celebrated our 2nd wedding anniversary on a long weekend. Beautiful hotel, service was excellent, quiet beach and what a gorgeous POOL. Take advantage of their yoga classes and free shuttle to Atlantis. Will definitely be going BACK!
“Can't wait to go back”
Room was gorgeous. Service was excellent. Food fabulous. Only negatives were that sometimes the service was so good as to be somewhat intrusive. You wanted to simply ask the person to leave you alone. But in general, you can't find a more beautiful place to get away from everything.
“The Best”
Great service
“L'hotel parfait.”
Un vrai hotel de luxe, la qualité exceptionnelle du lieu et du service justifie le prix élevé.
“Tranquility at its Best”
The grounds are beautiful, service is great. Great Spa...couples massage by the ocean is a must!Some rooms are nicer than others. Food in the hotel restaurant was very good with a nice atmosphere. Not a place for children, although it is not "Adults Only".

Area:
Paradise Island, New Providence Island, Bahamas: Paradise Island resembles Las Vegas-upon-the-Caribbean with its fanciful resorts and white sands. Tourists often head to the islands casinos, five-star restaurants, and shopping gallerias; its beaches, water parks, and nightclubs, however, are geared primarily for resort guests. The Potters Cay fish market is an easy detour from Paradise Island. Grouper and conch are typical catches of the day.
