Rose Island, New Providence Island hotel rooms at the Independent

"Excellent vacation "

"The hotel was amazing & the staff was extremely accommodating, polite & professional. The only issue was with housekeeping, as each day we had to call multiple times to get our room clean. When you come back from the pool & have zero clean towels, it is frustrating. The hotel scored 100% on every other area & would strongly recommend it to anyone!"

"A bit expensive, but it was great."

"Entertainment Staff, Buffet Staff, Servers front Desk staff all went over and above in customer service to ensure a great experience. Beach was beautiful, rooms were clean."

"Amazing!"

"Here’s a polished rewording of your travel note, Budget-Friendly Travel Guide This spot is perfect if you’re looking to save money. Rent a small, charming car from Budget for about $40 a day—it’s worth it. The hotel sits near West Bay and St. Albans Street; if you spot Ace Hardware, you’re close. - Hotel: - Rooms are clean, and the staff is attentive and respectful. - Room service is available upon request. - The property features palm trees and gardens, which add to the relaxing atmosphere. - Transportation: - Without a rental car, expect to pay around $55 for three people from the airport to the hotel. - Local buses are a great option: they cost $1.50, are yellow with benches at stops, and run along West Bay Street. - Westbound buses can take you to Goodman’s Bay or all the way to Nirvana Bar, where $5 grants access to Love Beach. - Eastbound buses lead to Junkanoo Beach, the Straw Market, and downtown Nassau—though expect cruise ship crowds. - Always ask about the last bus pickup time so you don’t get stranded. - Dining & Amenities: - Breakfast includes rotating options like eggs, sausage, or omelets, plus waffles, oatmeal, cereal, and fruit (oranges, apples, bananas). Drinks include water, milk, orange juice, and coffee. - There’s a pool, and happy hour starts at 7:30 p.m. by the pool with a DJ. The night staff are friendly—try the punch! "
