Island Resort and Golf Club is a very small "resort" in Freeport. There is no longer a golf club since it was destroyed by the hurricanes in 2004. The area around the hotel is very isolated and run down due to the hurricanes and they have never built it back up again. The resort touts they are within walking distance of the International Bazaar; however, there is virtually nothing left there other than one restaurant, a liquor store and the perfume factory. The rest of the buildings are boarded up and have never been touched since 2004.

Island Resort itself is comfortable but the furnishing need some updating and the units are in desperate need of maintenance and some hard core cleaning. The high lime content of the water has corroded the sinks and faucets leaving ugly stains. They have updated many of the small appliances in the rooms and all the towels are new and very clean.

The staff at this resort make up for the quality of the rooms. Stacy, Nettie and Michael go out of their way to make sure you are well taken care of and responded to all our needs when asked.

The pool area is small but it is well maintained and warm. The bar area could use a little work but Michael makes up for it with his great Bahama Mamas! At the time we were there the bar wasn't staffed except for a few hours most evenings.

You will have to pay extra for power if you exceed a certain amount of kilowatt hours so make sure you check in with the front desk periodically. It can get expensive!
