Pink Sands Resort

We stayed here after 3 nights at the adjacent Coral Sands. While located on the same beach, they couldn't have been more different. Coral Sands does have a "grander" feel to it's main building, but the advantages of Pinks Sands are apparent the moment you interact with the staff. They are welcoming, kind, thoughtful, and responsive. Tina, Vanessa, Ronnie, Ms K, and Nel (who literally brought some forgotten items to the airport!?) are what make any stay at Pink Sands worth every penny. Having been subjected to the absolute indifference shown by the Coral Sands staff, we would have been happy with a simple smile and hello, but the folks at Pink Sands went way beyond that to make us feel comfortable. A few examples: Three days on the beach at Coral Sands and we weren't offered a beach menu once, despite that service existing. Whereas at Pink Sands Ronnie had us covered before our feet hit the sand and from every moment onward. During check-in at Coral Sands we asked for a printed itinerary to make it easy to see our schedule, despite multiple requests and interactions with the GM this never happened. Vanessa at Pink Sands had this same request done within a few minutes during check-in. I could go on to include the daily yoga with Ms K, the restaurant Malcom 51, or the exceptional chicken sandwich at the beach, or the caring the staff put into helping our children find a quiet nights sleep during an event on property. Every interaction was a chance to shine, and they showed brightly every time. If you want to enjoy a relaxing time on a beautiful beach at a full-service hotel, we highly recommend Pink Sands. The accommodations, amenities, and location are on par or better than others in the area, but the people are always what makes a full-service hotel great, and Pink Sands nailed it.

This is our 3rd visit to the Pink Sands resort. We love it! The houses are amazingly comfortable, the beach is always awesome and never packed. The staff is amazing, always accommodating and kind. If you want a truly relaxing vacation then Harbour island is for you.

We absolutely loved our stay at Pink Sands and on Harbour Island. Harbour Island is a unique island and very much reminds me of Nantucket (white picket fences, lovely cottages on Bay Street). During our stay we dined at most of the hotels that are on the beach and in Dunmore Town so were able to see the majority of this small island and we are so glad we chose Pink Sands to stay. The grounds are lovely, our cottage was minimalist and very comfortable with a huge terrace and fantastic view, and the beach was just about perfect. Blue Bar on the beach is great for lunch (the conch fritters and conch salad are exceptional), while Malcolm 51 for dinner and fine dining is tucked away at the front of the resort in a classic Bahamian building. Thank you to Andrea and Daria at Blue Bar and Serlena and Michael at Malcolm 51 for extraordinary service - you made our stay even better! Chef David is running an incredible team - we pretty much saw him everyday and he always made a point to say hello and chat. We will be back!

I could not speak more highly about this resort and the staff! The service was incredible and everything was so well managed. Extra big shoutout to our wonderful concierge Anderse that made us feel so welcomed and accommodated and to our two favorite bartenders - Yaz at Blue Bar and Selena at Malcolm 51! Highly recommend the food at both places - so delicious!!

Pink Sands is a tropical paradise! We had a fabulous two bedroom villa with a cottage in the garden with a third bedroom, all ensuite with both indoor and outdoor showers. The garden and pool were amazing - well equipped and maintained regularly. The resort itself is easy to navigate but we hired a golf buggy which allowed us to buzz down into town and enjoy the local shops and restaurants. The famous pale pink beach is gorgeous, the waters so warm - what a treat. We'd come here again in a heartbeat.

The resort property is beautiful and lush and well maintained. A friendly hotel staff member met us at the airport and escorted us to our taxi, then water taxi, to another taxi and then to check-in, which was a nice treat. Check-in was easy and friendly. Our room was an ocean front 1 bedroom, nicely decorated and clean. The room is on a small hill set back from the beach. Installing a few steps to the beach path would be nice as it’s pretty steep and could be difficult for some people. The A/C worked great, the bed was comfortable and shower had plenty of hot water. Unfortunately, the pillows were very uncomfortable and my neck, 5 days later, is still hurting. The beach was meticulously raked every day which was greatly appreciated. The Blue Bar had good food, a bit expensive, but good. The pool is small so if there are kids swimming around it’s hard to share. Malcolm 51 had very good food and good service. Our first dinner there was very pleasant and relaxed. When we arrived another evening for dinner, a number of families with young kids were there eating and it was incredibly loud. We have kids so we get it, but we were hoping for an experience like the first so we were a bit disappointed. We rented a golf cart and enjoyed exploring the island. We highly recommend Arthur’s Bakery for breakfast! One thing Pink Sands should consider is a “do not disturb” sign for their rooms, or at least, we didn’t have one. Around 6pm every evening housekeeping would knock on the door (which is clear glass) to see if we wanted turndown service. This seems like an odd time of day for turndown and maybe we should have declined for the entirety of our stay, but we thought the first time was by accident, then we were caught very off guard another evening. We really wanted privacy and didn’t want to feel like we needed to have the curtains closed at all times. I also had someone from housekeeping let herself into our room while I was in the bathroom, she did not knock either. She was very startled when I greeted her, then was a little abrasive with my husband when she made a second attempt to enter and he was there. Despite a couple minor hiccups, we had a nice relaxing stay and enjoyed the atmosphere of the grounds.
