Bahamas Tourney

[RedStormNC]

Booked the hotel as it’s refundable. Not cheap.

Still get in the mailing list as I see this noted on the website. I'm sure you can call and get the promo code added

Request the bdG Sports discount rate on the email

I'm 90%+ planning to go, but haven't booked hotel or flight yet..

I understand there are 3 different hotels at Baha Mar.......are there any substantial differences among the 3 other than price? Thank you for any advice.

Just going by brand profile Rosewood is uber Luxury, SLS is trendy luxury and Grand Hyatt is traditional luxury.

Rosewood is smaller and quieter. SLS is for partying. Grand Hyatt is good for kids.

Anything more of the outhouse variety?

Panther - think you might have made an error. The dates of the games are 11/21-22

Just made correction, or rather my Goddaughter did. If you are there, will definitely buy you a few dr5inks.

Not on the resort.

I haven't been to the Bahamas in years so I know nothing about the product but if you're looking for something halfway decent under $300 it looks like the Sandyport Beach Resort or the Orangehill Beach Inn offer livable accommodations at decent value. I got the Grand Hyatt on hold for $429/night plus $190 per night in tax's and fees through their app. Don't recall but it might be a AAA rate.

I plan to go. Was just there in February, part of a 3-day cruise that was organized by a South Florida alumni association: managers from the 85 final four team were there. Willie Glass was going to be there but cancelled. Baha Mar is pretty nice. This is definitely the road trip to do next season if you can swing it.

I was in that same trip with my wife and two other couples. We must have met.

I am thinking about going.

I wonder if there is a cruise from Fort Lauderdale that would align with this tournament.

Kid, do they have outside restaurants around there or did you do all your meals at the hotel?

There are a bunch of restaurants on property (which spans 3 hotels - SLS, Grand Hyatt and Rosewood) - super expensive but just easy to eat on campus so that’s what I’ve done when I’ve gone. Def recommend grabbing reservations if you want to go to one of the nicer sit down places in advance

If you looking for an all inclusive that is very close and going with wife, Sandals Royal Bahamian is 15 minutes away by cab. Nice place been there several times.

Tickets are $130 for each session, so $520 for a couple going to both. I tried to be slick and see if the site worked to buy them but it told me Wednesday at 10 AM.

Need to take out a second mortgage to stay there. Wait until you see the prices on the menus. Geez

I'm probably not going to stay on site, but I read through cab ride from some resorts just 10-15 miles away is $50. So if I don't find something more than $100/night cheaper, and a place I'd be willing to stay, I will stay on site.

$130 per ticket, per day. Two games per day, $65 per game basically - not bad at all given who is participating. (If you want to break it down that way)
