“Nandana” (which means Paradise in the ancient tongue of Sanskrit) is a large luxury estate on a secluded sandy area near West End, Grand Bahama. This luxurious and exceedingly private villa compound is a fully staffed island home, specifically created for intimate gatherings of up to twelve family members or friends.

Nandana goes beyond the traditional villa vacation by providing guests with a wide range of luxury resort services, amenities, and activities. These include gourmet cuisine, an on-site masseuse and full spa services, a 120ft. infinity pool, Jacuzzi, Jet Skis, ATVs, nearby golf course, beach volleyball, and more.

Designed by a renowned architectural firm in an Asian beach house style, the property is comprised of six separate buildings. A spectacular main house with soaring 40ft. ceilings is surrounded by five richly appointed and free-standing bedroom suites.

The interior of the property has been constructed entirely of natural materials, with massive amounts of imported Burmese teak covering the floors, walls, and ceilings, and natural stone forming most other surfaces. A professionally designed lighting system has been installed to emphasize the property’s many distinctive architectural features.

The Grounds
The buildings are centered around a glittering 120ft. long infinity pool with a waterfall edge that drops to a small, private sandy area below. A separate large, outdoor Jacuzzi is located overlooking the man-made beach, and the entire compound is shaded by over 300 imported palm trees and tropical plants. The property is bounded in the front by the ocean with a protected sandy beach and in the rear by a deep water canal with private docking facilities for yachts up to 115ft. in length.

Accommodations
The main building contains the primary socializing areas including living areas, a dining room, kitchen, bar, and glass enclosed wine room.

Standing on either side of the main building and directly on the beach are two exceptionally large one-bedroom Pavilion suites. Each is in excess of 1000 square feet and contains a luxury bath with tub, indoor/outdoor shower, walk-in closet, writing desk, mini bar, and private sundeck with chaises overlooking the sea.

A few steps back from the beach, amidst gardens of swaying palms and tropical greenery, are two one-bedroom Bangala (bungalow) suites. Each Bangala Suite offers more than 750 square feet of luxurious living space with a bedroom, sitting area, large bath with indoor/outdoor shower, writing desk, and mini-bar. Along the canal, under swaying palms, rises our 2000 square foot luxury air-conditioned safari tent with separate bedroom, bath, and living area. The Tent is fully furnished and contains the same TV, Wi-Fi, and other services as the Pavilions and Bangles.
