“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.”
