“Absolute Heaven”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 August 2009

person found this review helpful

This is the second time I have stayed at Bluff House Cottages (Coral Haven Cottage), the other in 2008.
Whilst the hotel was in a sad state on my first visit and has subsequently sadly closed, the other side with the bar, restaurant and holiday cottages remains beautifully kept. The pool was extremely clean, the bar and restaurant excellent and the staff friendly and helpful.

Coral Haven cottage is kept to an extremely high standard of repair and furnished equally well, and with an excellent visitors book of things to do and places to see.

I would very much like to visit again.

“Can't beat the views”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 15 July 2009

My husband and I stayed in a split-level suite at Bluff House for 3 nights. We found the room to be very comfortable and cozy. The view of the ocean was amazing - complete with palm trees, tropical flowers, and crystal clear water. We saw a few beautiful sunsets from a pier right outside our room.
From the moment we arrived the staff was very nice and attentive. They made us feel welcome and made sure we had everything we needed, down to arranging tours, ferries, and golf carts for us. The service in the restaurant was a little slow at times, but we didn't mind - we were on vacation and were happy to take things at a slower pace! The food wasn't bad, but we would also recommend renting a golf cart for at least a day to go into town and try some of the restaurants there. We enjoyed dinner at McIntosh's and drinks at Miss Emily's.
While you are on Green Turtle Cay, definitely take a trip with Brendall's Dive Center. He is very well known on the island and does wonderful snorkel and dive trips. We had a great time going out on his boat to snorkel at Guana Cay and enjoy a Sunday bbq there.
Bluff House is a great destination for a romantic getaway - it's very quiet and peaceful with beautiful scenery and pleasant staff. We will hopefully get to return soon!

“What a shame-hotel has lost its way”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 13 July 2009

Sadly, what used to be a gem on this small island is no longer a place anyone would want to stay. I stayed at the property with a large group of friends to attend a wedding in March. I had stayed at the property a couple of times in years past and was disappointed to find none of the friendly faces that used to make this resort special. Instead I found the service non-existent, the food downright horrendous, and the rooms sub-standard. There appears to be no management of the property, and the property is rundown and badly in need of refurbishing; the pool was green with algae. Our breakfast was never served before it was cold, and staff and management seemed to be unconcerned. There are other recommended resorts on the small island, and for weddings I would recommend The Green Turtle Club. I learned while there that Molly McIntosh--one of those special people who made the Bluff House great many years ago--now coordinates weddings for the Club. That says it all to me.

“Perfect Getaway”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 November 2008

We have rarely stayed at a place where the staff was so friendly and forthcoming. We went during a very slow time, and actually got a free upgrade we would have been willing to pay for... We both work in the tourist industry, so we know how hard it can be to be so friendly! Bluff House ist a beautiful property and we got exactly what we hoped we would find: a luxurious beautiful hotel with very nice beach, away from everything, where you actually have to walk a ways or rent a golfcart to "escape" from the peaceful and relaxing setting. We went scuba diving (Brendal picked us up right at the dock of the Bluff House, how cool is that!), relaxed on the beach and our wonderful patio, ate the delicious food at the restaurant, and explored the island (mostly on foot, we only took a golfcart for 1 day). This is the place to go if you want to get away!

“Bluff House is awesome”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 April 2008

I just wanted to let everyone know that although the Bluff House is not a lavish and swanky hotel, this is one of the most comfortable, beautiful, and relaxing places I have ever visited. I had stayed there last year in 2007 for a week also and chose to return once again, for its location, but most of all its staff and lovely people. The family owned resort is managed by Mike Zack, originally from the states and familiar with resort hospitality. He has created a wonderful crew from the restaurant to the hotel staff that is available at any time. We arrived off the ferry after 9;30pm, and to our surprise a call was made by Robin, which is part of the family which own the resort, and Carol Jean from Kool Karts had a golf cart to us before we could finish our late dinner. Where else do you get pampered in this way. We also make friends with Carol and Mark which own Kool Carts and joined them for dinner in their home. What more can I say,...........Gorgeous beaches, wonderful seaglass, great food, ..did I mention the Tranquil Turtles..............If you don't stay here, you'll miss "the boat".a
Can't wait to get back, Sandra R. Steed, Bob Wilson, NC
