My wife and I stayed at the DBR four our honeymoon a few years ago - it was exactly what we were looking for - super secluded (had the beach to ourselves for 4 days), friendly staff, and convenience to the main transportation on the island (boats). We rented bikes to get to the harbor, and rented our own boat... More

We have been to Guana Cay quite a few times in the past 10 years and were so happy we decided to stay in Buttonwood Cottage at Dolphin Beach Resort this time. It is private, quiet, clean and self sufficient. The views from the upstairs bedroom and covered porch were amazing. We are not pool people but we used the... More

We just got back yesterday from a five day stay at the DBR on Great Guana Cay. We were celebrating our tenth wedding anniversary along with our eight year old daughter and four year old son. We had read an article in the newspaper before we were married about Abaco so I searched online and found the DBR on Guana... More

Travelled to Great Guana Cay from Eleuthera via Marsh Harbour -- the short trip involved several modes of transport but was easy and fun. Lubin, the driver from Dolphin Beach was at the dock to meet us, and quickly took us to the resort (it's walking distance but not with luggage). The grounds and building exteriors are all well kept... More

Thankyou for taking the time to write a bit about our hidden treasure. It is very helpful to get the feed back from our guests during and after their stay with us so we can accomodate them. I have since had a new TV put in the cottage and a new toaster. Thanks again and we hope to have you... More

We have recently stayed here for the third time and love this place more each and every time. Becky the Manager does everything possible to make the experience perfect. We have been to several islands throughout the Bahamas and Caribean and the beachs on GGC are by far the most beautiful and deserted we have every seen. If you are... More

We stayed at the DBR a little over a year ago. We were very disappointed. We stayed at the resort for two weeks over Christmas and New Years. Our cottage was only cleaned once and we were only given a change of towels and sheets once during the two weeks we were there. We were the only ones staying at... More

My husband and I have been staying at various cottages at Dolphin Beach Resort since April 2004 and have enjoyed every one of our trips. The cottages are clean, well maintained, nicely appointed and located on a beautiful beach. We have stayed at Ocean Temple, Buttonwood and most recently at Red House with family. Ocean Temple and Buttonwood are identically... More

we just returned from 5 days at Dolphin Beach Resort and were beyond delighted. From the moment we stepped off the ferry and were met by Lubin and brought to our cottage we were enthralled. Our cottage, Ocean Temple was unique and just what we hoped for. Private deck and steps to an almost deserted beach crystal clear ocean and... More

We loved staying at Dolphin Beach. We stayed in Sail Loft and loved having our own private deck right on the dune. We ate breakfast every morning watching sunrise over the Atlantic with the beach to ourselves. It is a perfect quaint beach escape. Nippers, and Docksiders are two great places on the island to eat and there are many... More

this resort is really the only place to stay on Guana Cay. There are a couple other places, but not as nice as the Dolphin Beach Resort. The resorts grounds are beautiful and the houses are all beautiful. Dont expect tv although they do have them in all rooms, They have a large video collection at the front office since... More
