Coral Beach - 1.5 miles Port Lucaya Marketplace (shopping, dining) - 1.5 miles Rand Nature Centre (animals, birds, gardens) - 2.5 miles Downtown Freeport - 3.5 miles International Bazaar (shopping, dining) - 4 miles Garden of the Groves (animals, birds, gardens) - 7.5 miles Lucayan National Park (underground caves) - 20 miles West End (historic town) - 30 miles Grand Bahama International Airport (FPO): - Approximate driving time is 10 minutes and distance is 5 miles. Driving directions from Grand Bahama International Airport: Turn left out of the airport and take the roundabout onto East Mall Dr. Continue for 2 miles and turn left onto Sunrise Hwy E. Turn right onto Coral Road, then right onto Bahama Reef Blvd. The resort is on the left. Getting there: The easiest way is by taxi. Fare for 2 passengers is $16–$25 USD plus $3 USD per additional passenger. Rental cars and limousines are more than $36 USD. Fees subject to change without notice. Rental cars are available online. Getting around: The many ways to get around include: the hotel’s complimentary shuttle service, which travels to the beach, grocery store, and shopping mall; scooters (generally available for more than $36 USD a day); bicycles (rented from the hotel for $5–$15 USD a day); and public buses (fares less than $5 USD), which travel to areas including downtown, Pinder’s Point, and Port Lucaya. The nearest bus stop is 1 block away. Fees subject to change without notice. Taxis are convenient and preferable to driving a rental car for those unaccustomed to the British style of driving on the left or to roundabouts. A free government-owned ferry travels daily between Sweeting’s Cay and McLean’s Town. Island-hopping is possible through the mailboats which run weekly from Freeport Harbour to Nassau although they operate on “Bahamas time,” so passage may be slow and space shared with chickens, produce, and cargo. Fares to Nassau are more than $36 USD return. Fees subject to change without notice.
