Visited Bahamas for 5 days. Great experience. Scene is quieter but worthwhile. Pricing up slightly.
Spent $52/day. Best part: ease of arranging.
Overall: 8/10. Would return.

I was there in January and prices were great value.
Spent about $91/day all-in. Quality was excellent.
My tip: the late night crowd is different.

Adding my experience from last month.
The scene has changed a bit since pre-COVID. Biggest change: more competition.

Not sure I agree about that area. I found a different part to be better value.
