We just returned from Staniel Cay and it is truly a wonderful part of the world. It is a small community close to deserted sand bars and beaches that make it idyllic and beautiful. The important thing here is to separate the beauty of the location from the execution of the yacht club as a destination. Of course, it is... More

Dear Geeman 1017, We're glad you enjoyed Staniel Cay and the beauty of the Exumas! We'd like to offer a few comments about our dining options... Our fish (whether as part of a dinner, sandwich, or salad) is always offered three ways... grilled, blackened, or fried. And for dinner we offer a fourth option...baked. (The conch is always fried as... More

We visited Staniel Cay Yacht Club for dinner and drinks only while staying at Staniel Cay Cottages down the road. Great atmosphere, just okay food, service was great - the staff were very helpful if you needed anything around the island even though we didn't even stay there. An example is, we wanted to rent a boat but theirs were... More

Just returned from SCYC and I can absolutely say that it was the best beach vacation I've ever had in my life. Keep in mind that I grew up in Florida and we do a lot of traveling and have seen a lot of very fine beaches. Just in the last couple of years we've been to Jamaica, Dominican Republic,... More

This is one of the most beautiful places we have visited, and by that I am talking about the surrounding water of incredible beauty and island after island to feast your eyes on. Staniel Cay Yacht Club itself consists of a bar and an attached open air restaurant. You MUST have dinner at 7pm. no choice. Everyone is served at... More

Water so clear you might try to drink it, pigs that swim, a secret (though in some circles world famous) snorkling cave only reached by Boston Whaler with puffer fish the size of pugs, conch chowder/fritters/salad that you dream about years afterward, an island runway with cracks that grass is growing out of, tropical breezes, kind people.... This is Staniel... More

Everything really has been said about this place in the previous reviews. I cannot say enough about the island, the people, the activities, the food, etc. My next trip is already scheduled for their New Year's Eve party next year! I loved the watermakers air flight down, it was so easy. I also used Lane's Limos in Fort Lauderdale to... More

This was our first trip to Bahamas and our 18th country visited. Most of our travel has been to warm water tropical locations. We stayed 7 nights here and 7 nights at Small Hope Bay Lodge in Andros. Travel is a passion, but understand that we prefer authentic experiences. We avoid franchises at home and would never go to Cancun... More

Fantastic spot to relax and unwind. I think the all-inclusive deal is great. This does genuinely mean you can choose what you want from the menu (instead of having those usual annoying restrictions and limitations), it means you get unlimited use of their facilities including cycles, snorkels and a boat. Other good points however include: very friendly casual bar, the... More

I now realize that there aren't enough colors of blue in Crayola's box of crayons. The water surrounding Staniel Cay is simply incredible, ranging from turquoise to azure to sky blues...impossible to describe acurately but easy to spend the day watching. I had really done my research on this property having read about it several years ago. I was not... More

As so many people say on these reviews, this small corner of heaven is NOT for anyone who is after pampering, perfect accomodation or fancy food. However, if you are a real traveller who delights in perfect nature, the freshest of freshest foods, amazing cocktails (in plastic cups) and the simplest of lives, this is the number one destination.
