“One of the last few magical spots around”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 November 2009

The Ocean View Club is an absolute gem tucked away in the Bahamas' out islands. First of all the staff are amazing and really make you feel genuinely welcomed, I know many other people who have developed great friendships with other guests and staff members over the years. The food is the best you'll find and in my opinion better than at the popular restaurant 'The Landing'. The rooms are all amazing, I read a review on here that said they were old unrenovated and from the 60's? Not true. - well I guess some people prefer staying at ultra new gated hotels were all the rooms are the same, but anyone with a good sense of taste and style will love any of the rooms or cottages available . Each room has its own individual look and theme done in great taste. All the rooms are just steps away from the most fantastic beach and they're all very clean. You'll meet some great characters staying at Ocean View and down-to-earth staff members. I can't wait to come back here again, it has been over a year now :( ! It's the perfect place to relax and have fun and best of all it's not been spoiled by a spa or swimming pool. Everything is genuine.

“What more could you want?”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 November 2009

This is one of the nicest, cosiest, relaxed, and beautiful hotels. The staff are amazing, friendly and knowledgeable of the island. The hotel is beautiful, the rooms are so much more beautiful and comfortable than staying in any ordinary hotel, and the beach is right there. If you're going to Harbour Island and want the BEST PLACE TO STAY, go here. The best hotel I've ever stayed in!

“Best Place on Earth”

I have been going to Harbour Island since I was a young girl and would never stay anywhere else but Ocean View Club. The hotel owner has fantastic style so immediately upon arrival the decor captivates you in a shabby chic, island comfort kind of way. The views from the terrace are amazing, overlooking the most beautiful beach in the world. Each room is unique and comfortable making you feel right at home. The food is the best you will find on the island and the staff are so wonderful and friendly, you will instantly feel part of the OVC family. It is so great, my father makes it a point of not leaving the hotel the entire 2 weeks on Harbour Island! All in all, the entire atmosphere around OVC will cause you to feel a personal connection to the island and make you want to come back for more.

“The ONLY Place to stay!!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 November 2009

I have been going to Harbour Island and Ocean View club for years, I would not choose another hotel to stay in!! The terrace has the most breathtaking view you will EVER see and how can you even find a reason to complain about eating your breakfast in the most beautiful location... The hotel itself is wonderful, the food is the best you will find on the island and the staff... well they are Incredible! You really feel like part of the Ocean view family from your the day of your arrival!! Even if you dont know anyone on Harbour Island, outside of ocean view you will forever feel a personal connection to the Island. These people really know how to make you feel welcomed and relaxed! I would never choose to go anywhere else!

“Worth Visiting, but Stay elsewhere”

We got married there, and I have to say, the rooms remind me of my grandmothers beach cottage from the 60's, the bathrooms have never been renovated. For $400/ night, there are far nicer places to stay on the island with much nicer service. The owner was nothing but rude to us and our guests, and we could not get out of there fast enough to stay at Valentine's in MUCH nicer rooms, and much nicer people. The Setting is amazing for a party, or wedding, but I would not recommend staying there. To charge those rates on Harbour Island when you are competing against far superior hotels, is incredulous. You would at least hope to feel welcome. Please contact me if you have any more questions
