Top All-Inclusive Resorts in the Bahamas for Families

When you’re traveling with children, being at a resort where you don’t constantly worry about “what will cost extra” is a major bonus. In the Bahamas, true all-inclusive resorts are relatively rare compared with other Caribbean destinations.

Below are the best ones we found for families—each offering a worry-free stay in terms of meals, drinks, and many activities.

1. Club Med Columbus Isle — San Salvador Island

What’s included: This resort markets itself as a full all-inclusive holiday in the Bahamas—accommodation, all-day dining, drinks, and land & water sports (e.g., sailing and paddleboarding) are included.

Family features: Kids clubs spanning many age groups (toddlers up to teens), family-sized rooms/suites, and plenty of activities for all ages.

Why choose it: A “set-it-and-forget-it” option for families who don’t want hidden costs.

Tip: Because it’s on a more remote island (San Salvador), travel logistics might be more involved than staying near Nassau.

2. Lighthouse Pointe at Grand Lucayan — Freeport, Grand Bahama Island

What’s included: It is explicitly labelled as an all-inclusive resort: meals, drinks (some beverages included), recreation, and entertainment are included.

Family features: Multiple pools, beach access, and proximity to Port Lucaya Marketplace for off-site dining/activities if desired.

Why choose it: More easily accessible than some remote islands; a good balance of convenience and included value.

Tip: Check exactly which premium drinks or other “extras” might not be included, and how the kids-club or pool-access is structured for children.

3. Small Hope Bay Lodge — Andros Island

What’s included: Offers a true all-inclusive rate: accommodation + all meals + drinks + many activities (kayaks, paddleboards, bikes) included.

Family features: Smaller scale eco-resort, strong focus on nature and outdoor adventure, and kids club and babysitting options mentioned.

Why choose it: For families who prefer a more relaxed, nature-centric holiday rather than a huge resort.

Tip: If your children expect big water parks or lots of structured entertainment, this is more laid-back. Make sure the kids will be happy with the pace.

4. Meliá Nassau Beach All Inclusive — Cable Beach, Nassau

What’s included: This is listed among the all-inclusive options in the Bahamas.

Family features: Located in Nassau, great beach, family-friendly atmosphere, kids club, family-sized accommodations.

Why choose it: If you prefer staying on or near New Providence Island with easier access and more surrounding amenities.

Tip: As with many large resorts, check what "inclusive" covers (some premium restaurants or brands might cost extra). Also review room location for families.

5. Fowl Cay Resort — Exuma Cays

What’s included: This resort is identified in a family-travel blog as “a premium family all inclusive resort in Bahamas” with luxury villas and inclusive meals, drinks, and some water sport activities.

Family features: With 1-3 bedroom villas, kitchen options, unlimited water sports and island exploration included — ideal for families that want a “private villa by the beach” feel.

Why choose it: If budget allows and you want something upscale, private, and fully inclusive in a more secluded setting.

Tip: Because of the luxury and villa size, cost will be higher; factor in travel time to Exuma and any off-site excursions.
