Review of the Nanny Cay Marina & Hotel
The Nanny Cay Marina and Hotel located in the British Virgin Islands is a fun-filled hotel with a range of activities for its guests. The West Indian architecture of the building charms the guests and the ideal location, only 10 miles from the Beef Island airport, makes it perfect for travelers. The ride to the hotel is manageable and the
beach is 20 minutes away. The marina on the hotel perimeter is first class and offers comprehensive services to boaters.
Features
The 42 studio rooms are all centrally air conditioned and have a view of the sea garden or marina. The hotel tour desk offers complete water-sport activities and there is a rental car service for guests who wish to be more independent in their exploration of the area. The hotel offers everything from shopping to sports on the premises so guests have no need to venture far. The dining options are anything from traditional Caribbean to international cuisines. The Plaza Café offers informal and light meals. For a more formal dining option, the Peg Leg Landing offers great dinner entrées.
Pros and Cons
While not a five star resort, the hotel offers everything for guests who want to enjoy the water activities the area has to offer. The dive center is a short walk away, the beach is a couple of miles, and there are plenty of dining and shopping options. The hotel is not meant for families with small children but teenagers who enjoy activities may enjoy a stay at the hotel. The hotel does not have separate entertainment for young children and parents may have a problem keeping their younger children busy. Hot water can sometimes take a while to reach you.
Bottom Line
This hotel provides great value for the money. While it is not a five star resort the rooms are clean and spacious, the staff friendly and helpful and the bathrooms are clean with modern plumbing. The hotel has a pool and there is a small beach within walking distance of the hotel. Guests can enjoy the sunset or sunrise from their rooms or at the beach. The view is great wherever guests stand and access to the waterfront easy. The Nanny Cay has character and for guests who want to experience the culture of the area this is the place to stay.
