Kamalame Cay

From BookTravel
Our Take
We recommend Kamalame Cay for travelers who want genuine seclusion without sacrificing character or good food. The private-island setting feels deeply personal, with oceanfront cottages, golf carts, empty beaches and a relaxed rhythm shaped by Andros.
What stands out most is the intimacy: couples can disappear into quiet, while families and groups have spacious villas, water activities and flexible dining plans.

Overview
Kamalame Cay is a private-island retreat off Andros, reached by a short ferry after arriving on the island. The resort's 21 seaside rooms and suites sit in cottages, bungalows and Balinese-style beach houses, while a separate villa collection adds one- to four-bedroom homes for families and groups.
The design is deliberately individual rather than uniform. Oceanfront verandas, outdoor showers, whitewashed materials and tropical gardens create an easy indoor-outdoor rhythm, with bicycles and personal golf carts supporting the relaxed pace of the cay.
Dining can be tailored through accommodation-only, Standard Guest of House or Premium Guest of House plans. Days center on the beach, the Andros reef, water activities, island excursions and the Bahamas' only overwater spa.
This is a strong choice for couples, families and private groups who value privacy, nature and a personal atmosphere more than a conventional full-service resort schedule.
