Beautiful. This is the Royal Beach Club in Paradise Island in Nassau. Beach is amazing. It has the biggest swim pool bar in the world 8 pools, 12 bars, 3 fast food restaurants. Very close to the cruise port. The only issue that it is not free. $100 per person (precruise deal) with full alcohol food and wifi. $80 non alcoholic. The restaurants are only snacks and fast food. Security staff did not handle a fight fast enough. People got drunk because bartenders and waiters keep pouring alcohol to them. Will no pay $100 again, so will be back went RCI drop the price and introduce a buffet like CocoCay. Only charge the drinks and free access.
