Reviews

• Sophie from United States (8/10)

  The room was perfectly simple and exquisite. The view was amazing from any direction and the staff was extremely kind and helpful.

• Promila from United States (9/10)

  We absolutely loved ASTA, which is, happily, far away from the massive hotels in downtown Nassau. Our room was lovely, comfortable, and with a balcony overlooking the lush tropical gardens and small pool. The water view from the main deck is stunning, with a sweet beach within a few minutes’ walk. Loved the onsite Indian food, which is served on the main deck, upon request. We ate there 3 times!

• Nicholas from United States (8/10)

  The staff could not have been more friendly. They were always available to assist with moving the luggage up and down the stairs. The views are lovely. Dinner was delicious.

• Maria from Bahamas (7/10)

  The view

• Simon from Malta (8/10)

  We loved the location, away from Nassau, but totally accessible via bus or taxi.
  
  Beaches close by, Love Beach, Jaws Beach, Johnston's Beach were great for us as we didn't fancy all the fuzz from the 100's of tourist coming off the cruise ships daily.
  
  John, Marcy and RJ were all great. They did everything to help and make our stay comfortable.
  
  The garden area was great to chill out and the rock pool was so nice to jump in any time of day or night.
  The terrace overlooking the beach was always clean and accessible, the breakfasts were simple, yet healthy and the Indian food served at the restaurant was great.
  
  I would definitely recommend staying there if you don't mind being away from the centre or for a short stopover.

• Becky from United States (8/10)

  Out of the hustle and bustle of downtown but still close enough to drive there the staff was awesome the room was nice had a great view from the balconies the property was beautiful

• Miranda from United States (8/10)

  The view is beautiful. The pool area was very pretty and quiet. The balconies attached to the rooms are very large. Overall it’s a charming hotel with historical charm. Lots of stairs though.

• Marvin from Germany (9/10)

  Top location for a short stay near the airport (5min taxi ride for 25 Dollar). Very nice manager who upgraded us to a beautiful room during our second stay at the end of our trip. We also liked the Indian food in the evening. Breakfast is included, however there is only a very small breakfast selection.

• G from United Kingdom (7/10)

  This hotel is full of character, it's very Bahamian. Lovely views over the water (although you are not directly next to the ocean). I'm not sure it's a hotel that you would want to stay for two weeks but for a short stay/layover it's very good value for money and the staff are all charming.

• Art from United States (7/10)

  View was great , location to restaurant, close to airport good stop over. Manager was great in upgrading room for us
