Set along more than seven-acres of sun-kissed sand, and located smack dab in the heart of Grand Bahama Island, Our Lucaya Beach & Golf Resort is the ideal headquarters for your Grand Bahama adventure.
Between boasting two world-class golf courses and four pools, plus the fact that the Port Lucaya Marketplace (with a staggering 55 shops and 32 restaurants and bars) is literally just across the street, this sprawling resort offers a welcome respite for the rush-hour weary.
Composed of two sister resorts—the Our Lucaya Reef Village and the AAA, four-diamond Radisson Our Lucaya Resort—Our Lucaya offers a choice of more than 1,200 rooms and 12 restaurants and bars onsite.

Kids aren’t just tolerated at Our Lucaya, they’re guests of honour. Take Camp Lucaya at Our Lucaya Reef Village—it's a children’s program that features a slew of supervised activites to keep your offspring occupied. Little visitors can enter the Beach Olympics, explore island culture through arts and crafts or play to their heart’s content in the 35-foot wading pool.
Morning programs run from 9 a.m. until noon (US$30) or until 1 p.m. (US$35, including lunch), while afternoon programs are from 1 p.m. until 4 p.m. (US$30).
In the meantime, while the little ones are off having their own fun, parents can slip next door and indulge themselves at the 25,000-square-foot Senses Spa & Fitness Center. A variety of locally inspired treatments await, including the Bahamian Bush Bath (based on ancient knowledge of the island’s healing herbs).
For those searching for solitude, Radisson Our Lucaya’s premium Lanai Suites beckon. Just a stone’s throw from the surf, and separate from the resort’s main buildings, the single row of oceanfront suites offer a sense of privacy amidst the hustle and bustle.
Featuring either balconies or terraces overlooking the azure waters, and their own private access to the beach, the art deco-inspired Lanai Suites are a great way to enjoy the resort’s plentiful amenities without sacrificing peace and quiet.

No matter what accommodation style you choose, there is plenty to occupy yourself outside of your room. Besides the massive stretch of sandy beach for sun worshippers, the resort features two golf courses, a slew of tennis courts and a host of water sports ranging from sailing to snorkeling to fishing.
For night owls, take advantage of the casino onsite at Our Lucaya—it’s the only one found on the entire island.
Offsite, you can dance the night away at the beachfront Prop Club or take in a show across the street at Count Basie Square in Port Lucaya Marketplace.
Rooms start at $189 during high season.
