[Q=mer1] [Q=anisew] why are people saying the food is high why are people saying that this resort is not what it seem to be why are people saying you have to have a lot of money to stay here i want to stay here put i will be very upset if i have a bad experience and is it better to stay at the hotel or the harborside resort and how do you cut down on food prices[/Q] The food is high when you want to go to the fancy restuarnts all over the hotel section of the resort. If you buy or bring food with you to eat there in the full kitchen it is as high as a supermarket to eat. All bahamians pay a bit more for food than we do in US. It is a real fun place. you cannot find anything like this anywhere in the world. I just eat in my room since i am not rich. Ive been there several times. i have been all over and most resorts have just plain pools. The only bad thing is you will get spoiled and not like the plain resorts anymore.[/Q] Some of the restaurants are very expensive, but places like Johnny Rockets are more reasonable. Also, grill places by the pools were not too bad. Bringing food with you is a good idea, just make sure that customs will allow it. The little store at the Harborside was VERY expensive. The supermarket across the bridge is much more reasonable. As far as being disappointed, it was BY FAR, the best place that we have ever vacationed. For the heck of it, after we went the last time, I stopped into a big Travel Agency and told them that was where I just went and asked if there was any other place like it that I could go to next time. They told me no, there was no other place like it in the world. We absolutely LOVE it. So much to do right on sight. And just offsite on the beach there is stuff like jet skiing and para-sailing. It is not a cheap vacation, but there are ways to watch your money. Good luck deciding.
