An elaborate menu of recreational amenities isn't necessarily something everyone requires to enjoy the perfect tropical vacation. While some travelers will be happier at a resort with many different activities available, others can enjoy themselves with few or no recreational options, because all they really care about is having a comfortable, relaxing place to stay. Even though the hotel doesn't have an extensive array of recreational offerings the Old Bahama Bay Resort may have what everything you really care about.
Water and Fitness
Since the hotel has a swimming pool, there are a lot of ways to cool down during the hottest hours of the day. Although lounging at the hotel pool may be the ideal way to relax, you may also enjoy the convenience of a refreshing swim during magic hour.
Tennis
Tennis enthusiasts may find this hotel to be a particularly good choice. You probably won't have any problems finding an open court, because the hotel has 54 rooms and it has 1 court.
