Baha Mar is a new $4.2 billion Caribbean resort which, until 2019, has been relatively undiscovered. Baha Mar is set to be recognised as a significant player as an overseas wedding venue.
Three iconic hotels complete the resort; the richly refined Rosewood, the playful SLS and the stylish Grand Hyatt. The Baha Mar resort vows to tailor every stay to your idea of perfection, including the wedding celebration of your dreams.
Where is the Baha Mar resort?
The resort's location is incredible, on the pristine white sands of Nassau’s Cable Beach. Nassau is one of the most accessible areas in the Caribbean, with direct flights from London (9 hours), New York (3 hours) and Miami (55 minutes). The resort is conviniently just 15 minutes from the airport.
What is the best time of year for weddings in the Bahamas?
The peak season to visit Nassau is between November and April, when you will experience reliable hot and sunny weather. The summer months, June to September, tend to be hot and humid with occasional rainfall in the afternoons. The Bahamas can be at risk of hurricanes from June to October however Baha Mar is fully equipped to cope with this very unlikely eventuality.
World class amenities at Baha Mar
The amenities and experiences available at the resort are second to none. The hotels have a golf course designed by Jack Nicklaus, a world-class racquet club, the largest casino in the Caribbean, a full service Espa spa, a nature sanctuary, arts studio and over 40 dining and nightlife options.
