A favorite for Bahamas vacations and a landmark of
hospitality in Nassau since 1901, the British Colonial Hotel reopened as the
British Colonial Hilton Nassau in October 1999. Hilton's 18-month, $68-million
restoration converted the timeless classic into a thoroughly modern luxury
vacation hotel. At the same time, the renovation preserved the hotel's historic
resonance and enhanced its tropical charm.
Today's British Colonial Hilton
claims the only private beach at Nassau’s city center. An ideal home base for
Bahamas vacations, it offers not only the beach and a freshwater pool but lush
tropical gardens, a full fitness center, and an on-site scuba-diving and
snorkeling facility. The Azure Spa offers a variety of pampering services.
Patio Grill And Pool Bar Portofino's The city itself has been reborn in recent years, due to millions of dollars
in civic upgrades. The spruced-up Old World-style plaza – flanked by
Nassau’s nineteenth-century parliament buildings – brings a new sense of
vibrancy to a downtown that still employs horse-drawn surreys and directs
traffic with bobbies in trim white jackets and colorful pith helmets.
Of course Nassau, Bahamas still boasts the other attractions that make it one
of the world’s best vacation destinations: a well-preserved history, lively
nightlife, great shopping, and amazing beaches. From the Hilton, guests can walk
to duty-free shops, the Bay Street Straw Market, and Government House. A
five-minute taxi ride leads to championship golf courses, two world-class
casinos, and unlimited water sports.
