The Ocean Club, A Four Seasons Resort

OVERVIEW

If you’ve ever wanted to feel like a celebrity but didn’t fancy putting yourself ‘out there’, you might be interested to know where you can go to feel like one, minus the hordes of paparazzi or the need to go to stage school. The Ocean Club, A Four Seasons Resort in the Bahamas is set on an exclusive patch of heaven known as Paradise Island and offers the A-list experience for everyone who goes there – you might just find yourself staying next to an Oscar winner.

In fact, the hotel featured prominently in the James Bond blockbuster, Casino Royale, and you can even stay in Daniel Craig’s villa if you really want to bring your 007 fantasies to life. This beachfront resort has a romantic and illustrious history that the friendly staff would only be too happy to share, with 14th-century Augustinian cloisters and impeccable gardens modelled on Versailles. It’s been running as a hotel since 1962, and until recently was operated by the One&Only group. Fortunately, Four Seasons have made few changes, though you can expect impeccable service as with all Four Seasons’ resorts.

The cuisine is exceptional, the bars are relaxed and informal, the accommodation suitably stunning. This is island living at its finest.
