A Playground in Paradise

A vibrant, entertaining experience awaits in the heart of Cable Beach at the Wyndham Nassau Resort. Celebrating the true rhythm and spirit of the Bahamas, this island playground embraces guests with a fresh experience that engages the senses through its charismatic people, spirited activities and spicy services.

Situated just 180 miles off the Florida coast, Nassau, the capital city of the Bahamas, is located on New Providence Island, surrounded by the depths of the Atlantic Ocean. White sand beaches and bright turquoise waters set the perfect backdrop for the island’s rich history and old world charm. The spirit and spice of the Bahamas is found in every corner of its more than 700 islands and 2000 cays.

The Wyndham Nassau Resort recently went through a two million dollar enhancement, which resulted in the new outdoor experience at the resort complete with a tropical pool, rock formation, water slide and seemingly floating island dance floor. In-pool dining and swim-up bar are all found at The Tiki Hut Bar & Grille. Nighttime sizzles with the energy of the 35,000 square foot Crystal Palace Casino – the only casino on Cable Beach that offers a Vegas style gaming experience 24-hours a day, and 22 Above Lounge, a chic hotspot for pre-and post-dinner cocktails, with a large dance floor overlooking the Crystal Palace Casino.

Taste buds are tempted with Bahamian Bites at Black Angus Grille. From succulent steaks to fresh seafood dishes, Black Angus Grille will satisfy the heartiest of appetites with a sprinkle of island flair. The flavors of Asia collide at MOSO, where authentic, classic and modern Chinese cuisine blends with culinary inspirations of Thailand and Japan. Each table is equipped with a large lazy Susan making it easy to sample other dishes.

Seaside Buffet restaurant offers a wide variety of home-cooked favorites and island delights, with a casual atmosphere overlooking the outdoor pool area. For a great snack option or take-away dining, try ELR: Eat, Live, Refresh; providing light fare throughout the day with a variety of grab-in-go food and drink choices, including Starbucks coffee.

For the adventurous, there’s the Aqua Adventurers including snorkeling, scuba diving, swimming with the dolphins, diving lessons, excursions and rentals at Stuart Cove’s Fishing Charters. Or, try sailing, a powerboat, jet skis and sunset cruises or sailing excursions to secluded islands.
