Cast away in
heavenly blue seas, to the east of Florida, there is an
island estate that's as pleasing as a tropical sunset...
It is the Bahamas Princess Resort & Casino on the
island of Grand Bahama. At first sight it seems you've
happened upon a Sultan's Palace. As if in a scene from
ancient Araby. plump Moorish domes and slender minarets
rise above luxuriant gardens. This stylish resort is a
vibrant marriage of hotel, casino and 1,000 acres of
fragrant botanica, languid pools and waterfalls, golf
courses and a galaxy of tennis courts. Adjacent is a
colorful international bazaar of boutiques, each of which
invites exploration.
At the
Bahamas Princess the mood is carefree; the set ting that
of a fragrant, well-tended Bahamian garden. Guest rooms
are tranquil with decor colors pastel-soft and restful.
You may choose the high-rise lifestyle of the Princess
Tower. It reaches 10 stories up into the incan descent
blue of the Bahamian sky. Here are 400 guest rooms,
including 19 spacious suites. Or, you may elect to stay
across the road at the ram bling country club, whose
rooms radiate from the grotto pool. Here are 565 tasteful
accommodations, including 4 more welcoming suites ideal
for entertaining, plus two desirable villas. So try a
little self-indulgence. It refreshes the spirit, and it's
there for the asking at the Bahamas Princess.
Let the good times roll at the Princess Casino. The magic
of blackjack, craps, slots, roulette, and mini-baccarat
beckons. And, the action goes on stage too in a glit
tering Las Vegas- style revue. The two 18-hole par 72
golf courses are said to be the gems of the Caribbean.
The Emerald course was designed by Dick Wilson and the
Ruby by Joe Lee. Mischief was on his mind at the time.
Tennis, anyone? Nine courts await. Most are floodlit for
volleys under the stars.
Hail the
private shuttle bus and head for the near by beach club.
Or take to the water in the resort's swimming pools. One
is of Olympic proportion; the other is pleasingly
free-form. Both are fringed with flaming bougainvillea.
Note:
Some of the activities are operated by independent
concessionaires, including water sports activities.
Dining at the Bahamas Princess is a world tour for the
tastebuds. Four eateries tempt at the Princess Country
Club. Bahamian cuisine is Guanahani's specialty. Then
there's the Patio coffee shop, and the poolside casual of
the John B. The Princess Tower offers three dining
choices... Morgan's Bluff is seafood sensation. La
Trattoria serves only Mama's best. Lemon Peel is zest ful
with coffee shop fare. Princess Casino rolls the dice
with gourmet dining in the Crown Room. And, just about
any hour, the Garden Cafe's expansive buffet is center of
attention. The Bahamas Princess is an oasis too for
guests who dance the night fantastic. Awaken your spirit
at any one of the lively bars or the nightclub.
