My stay at the Grand Isle Resort and Spa is something I will never forget. The luxurious accommodations had everything required to make our stay there extremely comfortable. I like space so I rented a 2 bedroom 3 bathroom townhouse. It was huge. Anything I could think of had been thought of and provided for us and if we needed... More

If you are looking for a place to get away and clear your mind-you've found it at Grand Isle resort and spa. The villas are absolutely gorgeous-spacious, clean, beautiful kitchen. We stayed in a 2 br villa (we reserved a one br but they gave us a 2 and locked the one br door). The kitchen was fully stocked with... More

Just got back from a two week stay in Grand Isle Resort and Spa, and I can honestly say nothing compares to it, it was outstanding!! Views of the lush Tropical beach, Emerald Bay, were incredible from the infinity pool........and it was only a few steps down and you were actually in the ocean. Every meal I had in the... More

This is a beautiful place to relax and "disconnect" from the daily grind. There is almost nothing to do on the island except eat, drink, and sunbathe...unless you play golf or have a boat. I'll start with the bad because they are minor compared to how lovely this resort is. In my opinion, this is not a family friendly resort.... More

We recently returned from an early April week at Grand Isle Resort in Great Exuma. The island itself is old-world Caribbean, with no traffic lights or congestion. There are untouched white sand beaches around every corner. If you are looking for peace, quiet, and relaxation I cannot imagine a better place to vacation than Great Exuma. Grand Isle is spectacular.... More

Stayed here over spring break in March 2013 with my wife and two kids (9 and 4). The condo was absolutely amazing, tons of space - 2 bedrooms and full bath downstairs and another 1/2 bath, living room, kitchen, dining area, and a nice patio with another table and chairs. We booked an oceanfront room that overlooked the 15th hole... More

Myself and 4 girlfriends stayed at this magical resort for one glorious week in the 4 bedroom penthouse. The views from our accommodation were spectacular and the penthouse was beautifully decorated. The housekeeping, front desk, pool, restaurant and bar staff were fantastic. The seafood in the restaurant was excellent. The beach was quiet, tranquil and so relaxing, and the water... More

My husband and parents had such an amazing holiday, and one that we will never forget! We stayed in the 2 bedroom penthouse for 4 nights, and everything about the villa and resort exceeded my expectations. The penthouse itself is extremely spacious, and the views are spectacular.

Don't let their mediocre website discourage you like it almost did to my family and me. This resort is a hidden gem! If you enjoy quiet beaches, solid food, friendly people and super nice accommodations, I totally recommend checking this place out. The condo was huge, comfortable and all that you could ever want. My three children had a blast... More
