“The Bahamas distinguishes itself with a genuinely warm, family-run atmosphere and particularly proactive hosts, which elevates a stay here; little touches like the sculpted tomatoes and attention to individual needs impressed me. It's clear the ongoing refurbishment is matched by attentive service, making it a smart choice near Torquay's attractions. I'd recommend it for a personal touch that stands out.”

adequate but with issues
sloping bedchinese food smell
The bed wasn't great. It sloped downwards. i kept sliding off it during the night. also, the whole place smelled strongly of chinese food. Like a takeaway shop was in the lobby. it was overpowering.

wonderful stay
warm welcometea facilitiesamazing fruit salad
I was greeted warmly and shown around the hotel. my room had tea and coffee facilities plus a mini fridge. the presentation of the optional breakfast really surprised me. I tried the fruit salad and it was amazing.
the bathroom drains had a slight odor, likely from disuse (i think i was one of the only guests).
