Visit if you like any of the following: pink sand beaches without anyone else around, easy access to snorkeling, scuba, sea kayaking, ocean swimming, sun bathing, fishing, diving for conche, watching rays swim along the beach, relaxing, or experiencing how the locals live.

As other reviewers have noted, this is not the place to come for luxury digs and nightlife. It IS the perfect place to come to unwind and relax, as we did for several days, and also meet some interesting people. The beach is beautiful and miles and miles long, although some trash has washed up as a result of this... More

My husband and I spent 7 glorious days at the Greenwood Inn on Cat Island, Bahamas this past July. We felt like we were not guests, but "one of the family" from the start!

Relaxation and wonderful beach front...enjoy doing little and you don't feel guilty. Relax, Relax, Relax More

The beach is superb - 8 miles long - and virtually deserted! The water is warm and clear. Anna and Waldemar can't be beat as hosts. The food was wonderful. Even Remy and Buddy, the 2 dogs on premises, were friendly and sweet. All the staff were attentive and helpful. We loved it all! We stayed for 15 days, but... More

This is our second trip to Cat Island. The first time we stayed at Fernandez Bay. Fernandez Bay is 3 times as expensive, but I liked Greenwood 3 times better. Most of all I liked the atmosphere. It was homey, friendly and relaxed. The owners and staff make you feel welcome while still allowing you space to do your own... More

Greenwood offered the most relaxing stay and gorgeous beach imaginable. The staff and owners were very friendly and helpful. Snorkeling off the shore in front of the resort was not that great, but they would drive you to Port Howe where it was excellent snorkeling - saw eagle rays, sting rays, beautiful corals, and lots of fish. If you are... More

There are few greater pleasures than sitting on the terrace of the Greenwood Beach Resort on Cat Island, looking across blinding white sand to the incredibly blue Atlantic, coconut palms swaying in the breeze, drinking good coffee and eating the perfect breakfast omelette. There, I’m getting carried away. Seriously though, places like this are, for me, what the Bahamas is... More
