Columbus Isle Bahamas

This is our 6th CM property and 12th stay. I will say this is our FAVORITE ( but differentiate between including kids and not). CM has fantastic resorts for kids, but this is NOT one. We read all of these reviews and actually had a very different, and five star experience! Adding comments to reference what we were concerned about:

• Need more lounge chairs and umbrellas at beach, but we could find by 10am at almost resort capacity. Also they spray for sand fleas dusk and dawn. I didn't get one bite, but my husband was chonped on (bring Benadryl)
• Luca, the Chief walked the beach every day and fully engaged and wanted feedback
• wifi is free and works great
• sign up for snorkeling was ridiculous, but at almost capacity, we were able to get on the boat
• Go's were 100% awesome, and 99% of local staff was great. 1% local staff was cranky (but Jermaine, Janae, and Leroy were awesome!)
• The shows were AMAZING, the white night dinner, the effort put into the Superbowl and Valentines day...Superb.
  We love the Club Med model. I fell like negative reviews come from a lack of understanding of the actual resort. If you wanted a kids club, then you shouldn't have brought your kids here. If you wanted a vibrant community outside of the Club Med property, then you shouldn't have come here, if you expected this to be the Ritz, then you shouldn't have come here...It's a gorgeous spot, the staff and food are amazing, the entertainment is great, the activities are great. It's vacation, relax. There isn't anything that isn't overcome by the sunsets and water +++ here!

The staff (for the most part) we're the highlight of our trip. We're looking forward to tossing Columbus isle into one of our yearly trips, the perfect place to unwind and relax. The perfect distance from the airport, we highly recommend walking to the resort if your plane ride was as comfortable as ours.

Beautiful resort, great food .
The staff is very friendly and helpful.
The rooms are confortable and clean.

Our recent all-inclusive vacation was absolutely a dream come true! From start to finish, everything exceeded our expectations. The enthusiasm and knowledge of the scuba and sailing instructors made every outing exciting and stress-free. We were especially impressed by the variety of nearby scuba and snorkelling locations—each one offering something unique and beautiful to explore.

The food was delicious, with plenty of variety to satisfy every craving. Whether we were in the mood for adventure or relaxation, this resort provided the perfect balance. We could spend the morning diving into crystal-clear waters and the afternoon lounging by the pool with a cocktail in hand.

This was truly a dream getaway, and we can’t wait to return! Highly recommend for anyone looking for the best of both worlds—activity and relaxation all in one stunning destination. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Great place and the activities are spectacular. I went diving, and all the instructors were amazing. I had Simon and he was very helpful. Furthermore I did a ATV tour and our guides name was jordan i think. He was very nice and helpful. overall i highly recommend this place.
