My stay at Small Hope Bay Lodge was an very nice experience filled with authentic Bahamian vibes. The lodge itself is pristine, offering large, well-furnished rooms that feel like a home away from home. While getting there can present some challenges, it's certainly worth it for the stunning views and friendly staff who truly make you feel welcome. One downside was the limited WiFi access, but the laid-back atmosphere more than compensated for it.

I had a fantastic experience at Small Hope Bay Lodge. From the moment I arrived, the staff made me feel welcome and attended to my needs. The diving opportunities were lovely, and the cuisine was great. However, I wish there were more options for non-diving activities when the weather didn't cooperate. 🌊🌴
