Four Seasons Golf Resort Great Exuma Bahamas

Great Exuma - Out Islands - Bahamas

Four Seasons Resort Great Exuma at Emerald Bay offers an idyllic Bahamian getaway on one of the secluded and captivating Out Islands. The Exumas are a chain of 365 cays and islands stretching over 120 miles south-east from Nassau. Straddling the Tropic of Cancer, at 40 miles long, Great Exuma is the largest in the chain and offers a pleasantly tropical climate year round.

Presiding over a sprawling oceanfront setting, Four Seasons Resort overlooks a gently sloping expanse of silky white sand shoreline on Emerald Bay, surrounded by a scenic Greg Norman championship golf course. The resort offers luxury accommodation, inspired dining, holistic spa, fitness centre and a wide range of recreational activities and water sports.

Accommodation comprises nearly two hundred rooms, junior suites, beachfront suites and multi-bedroom residences, most of them steps away from the beach and with vistas of Emerald Bay. The décor throughout features natural wood, stone and marble finishes, with a soothing mix of soft shades, contemporary and classic furnishing, all enhancing the restful atmosphere of the resort.

The gourmet cuisine of Italy is showcased at Il Cielo, Four Seasons Resort's flagship restaurant. In addition, the executive chef takes full advantage of the rich diversity of the islands' cuisine to create inspired menus that include traditional seafood dishes and delicacies made from tropical fruits, vegetables and spices.

At the Spa, Asian and Western philosophies have been carefully integrated with indigenous massages and body treatments to promote the art of well-being. Treatments may be enjoyed indoors, outdoors or in your own guestroom. In between sessions, the Spa Garden provides a peaceful enclave with hot/cold whirlpools, plunge pool and rest area. Further activities at the resort include a fitness and tennis centre, free form pools and a wide stretch of sandy beach with a range of complimentary non-motorised water sports, while the adjacent Emerald Bay Club Marina provides for big game fishing, boat trips and diving in the renowned waters of The Bahamas.

Four Seasons Golf Club Great Exuma boasts a magnificent championship course designed by Australian golf legend Greg Norman. Winding through inland lakes and sand dunes with a dramatic finish on Emerald Bay's peninsula, the course features six signature holes hugging the perimeter of the bay and offering sweeping vistas of The Bahamas' turquoise waters. The design is environmentally friendly, using seashore Paspalum grass which thrives on a mixture of salt and fresh water, requiring less fertiliser and plays just like traditional Bermuda grass.
