A week is not long enough to enjoy this fabulous place. The hospitality was superb, the food was fantastic, and the beach was beautifully untouched. The locals were friendly and helpful. We have visited other out islands, but CAT is our favorite! Greenwood went out of their way to make our stay enjoyable. They are experts in customer service. The grounds are breathtaking and we were pampered. We will return. Don't miss out on a trip of peaceful serenity. Go to Greenwood on Cat Island!!!

41/2 hours by car, 3 planes, 4 landings, 40 minutes of innumerable island potholes ...One look at the beach made it all worthwhile. The beach is 8 miles long and deserted. We walked for miles each day and never saw a soul after we left the resort. The beach is wide and is powdery white sand interspersed with pink coral. The water is blue/green and endless. The resort was comfortable, the hosts gracious and helpful, the food very good and the guests eclectic and interesting. I stopped wearing shoes the second day. The resort has lovely relaxing atmosphere. There was great swimming,snorkeling and diving. Greenwood has their own boat and instructors. This is the perfect place for a relaxing vacation. The 3 mile beach walk south to Little Winding Bay is a must-do. The only caution...bring bug spray, the sand fleas come out in late afternoon and by the time you know they are biting it is too late. Along the 8 mile beach you will discover an astonishing variety of debris from all over the world. It gives you incentive to clean up your act at home.

A touch of true caring, pleasantness, and luxury in the midst of The Bahamas as it was many decades ago. The location (a fantastic beach), great meals and wonderful companions (the other guests) made this a remarkable experience.

Looking under the surface, you realize how hard it is for the operators to provide such a wonderful experience in a 1960's environment.. For example supplies arrive weekly via the mail boat. The the host, hostess, and staff overcome the additional burdens of "being off the beaten path" to cater to each guest's expectations. It exactly this environment that makes Greenwood such a treasure.

I only hope that I have the blessing of being able to return.

Greenwood is an amazing place, run by people who know the island and the business. The location is unexcelled, and snorkeling off the beach is the best on the island. A bohemian resort, very clean, with some of the best beaching in the country. Rooms are very clean, comfortable and well maintained. The folks know diving (not a surprise when one learns that Waldemar is one the best known divers in the world). Compare it to Fernandez Bay from a price/value/quality standpoint, and there just is just no comparison. Greenwood is the best deal on the island for resort accommodations.

I would encourage folks to do meals occasionally elsewhere. I suggest the Bluebird for a great Bahamian lunch or early dinner.
