Lively Up Yourself in Bahamas
By : Eagle Latitudes
Once the summer mansion of reggae icon Bob Marley, the 16-room Marley Resort in The Bahamas is a must for fans of music and the finer things in life. Located on Cable Beach, just 10 minutes from Nassau, this low-key boutique resort and holistic spa offers colorful but elegant rooms with names like “Positive Vibration,” “Lively up Yourself,” “Jammin’” and “One Love,” among other well-known Bob Marley song titles. The rooms are filled with antiques and CDs of Marley’s popular tunes. Music wafts from hidden speakers throughout the property, and a flat-screen TV plays old concerts in a library adorned with plaques, pictures and gold records.
Stop by Marley’s Boutique to browse music, resort merchandise, memorabilia and high-end fashion wear, as well as quality arts and crafts by African, Jamaican and Bahamian artisans. Or you can enjoy superstar pampering at the Natural Mystic Spa, which features Afro-Caribbean and Asian techniques, hydrotherapy and traditional Caribbean rituals.
Happy hour at the Stir It Up Bar will make you “get up, stand up” with creative cocktails such as the Buffalo Soldier (Trump Vodka, Orange Patron and ruby red grapefruit), Reggae Queen (mango rum with pineapple and ruby red grapefruit juice), Roots Rock Reggae (oats, roots, peanuts, Guinness, soy milk or ice cream) and the Bahamian-favorite, Bahama Mama. The drinks are served along with delicious appetizers and live music.
As the Jamaican legend himself sang, the Marley Resort will make you feel as though “every little thing is gonna be alright.”
