To choose Sammy T’s you have to know Cat Island. To the traveler who is weary of the noise and bustle of our big cities, Cat Island in The Bahamas offers the exquisite experience of a quiet “heaven on earth”. Palm-trees sway gently in the trade winds and turquoise waters bathe the soft sand of spectacular and untouched beaches. These... More

My girlfriend and I just returned from our Spring Break 2013 trip on Cat Island. What a wonderful experience and adventure! We were aiming for a vacation that was remote and quiet, even if it required some travel to get there. This was the perfect place for such a trip. We arrived on a SkyBahamas flight from Nassau on Sunday... More

My husband and I visited Cat Island at the end of January and stayed at Sammy T's in part based on some excellent reviews. The beach is beautiful and practically private. We had it all to ourselves the first two days. The water is crystal clear and gorgeous. Sammy T's is in an ideal location. The resort itself is somewhat... More

The resort has wireless internet if you want, 6 channels delivered by antenna, the best beach ever, kayaks and floats for free. The meals at the restaurant on property are iffy because some of the ingredients may not be available. but if you ask for something in time, they can go into town to get it. each meal took between...

My girlfriend and I visited Sammy T's from Christmas Day to January 8th 2012 and found a gem in the solitude of Cat Island. Upon arriving, we were met with such friendly staff, Kennirica (Manager), her husband Charles and their adorable son Rico. Coming from one of the busiest cities in the world, this Island is a reminder of what... More

We recently visited Sammy Ts for lunches during our stay on Cat Island. We had fresh fish with salads for lunch which was absolutely delicious. Kenny, the manager, is a gem. She was a great hostess and so accommodating, even when we wanted drinks "to go" after our lunch. We will definitely eat at Sammy Ts next time we visit... More

We just returned from Cat Island and stayed at Sammy T for five days. This small resort was managed by Sammy, its creator, for a number of years and everyone knows that he passed away suddenly a few months ago. His manager is doing a great job caring for the property and the guest are treated like family. A number... More

If you want to get away from it all this is the place. The bungalows are private, clean and well cared for. Kenny and her crew treat you like family and the meals are wonderful. The beach is beautiful and there is plenty of snorkeling close by. It is like having a private beach because most of the time you... More

This is a re-review, as my husband and I stayed at Sammy's in November 2009. Overall, our experience was similar, but slightly different. The main difference was that Sammy Thurston, the owner and namesake of the resort, passed away in February 2011. The community misses him greatly, and the resort is just not the same without him. Is it clean?... More

The rooms are like bungalows very well kept and charming. The hotel has a beautiful beach and it is just great to walk from the bungalow. The food is nicely prepared by the hotel team and it is tasty. The hotel team is simply friendly and helpful. It is a nice place to stay
