Taino Beach Vacation Resort Club

we are currently new owners of a timeshare at the marlin. same place ,different building. people were nice lots to do for extra $. .But dont expect to snap your fingers for quick service. its a whole different life style down there. just go with the flow and have fun. enjoy the beautiful sceneary there. like any place in the bahamas it can be expensive . dont think your going to pay macdoalds prices. this place has an excellent pool and private beach at the resort. and when you fell going out for a nice meal port lucaya has alot to offer, or just stay at the resort restaurant which is very good as well.

I have a time share at this resort and went there from 10/12/07 through 10/19/07. The location is perfect as it is situated on the beach and there is a huge pool just outside of the buildings. While we have been very dissatisfied with the service in the past, the resort is under new management and efforts are being made to improve the quality of service and become more customer friendly.

The older rooms located in the Ritz section have been renovated, but not real fancy. The newest section--The Marlin----the rooms are very nice and have lots of storage space and room.

The pool has a bar under cover, so it was nice when it rained. There is a happy hour, but only for mixed drinks; not beer.

You can take a ferry over to Port Luycaya for shopping and dining. Usually on Friday and Saturday evenings they have a limbo show with live bands.

We didn't try the on-site restaurant and did alot of cooking in the room to save money for other activities.

We have been going to this resort for 10 years and really enjoy our stays there. It is a 3 star resort right now, but if they make imporvements as they promise, it has the potential to be a nice, quiet place to go to vacation with or without children.
