Just over 1,000 miles off the coast of the United States sits the Bahamas.

These gorgeous, tropical islands are only a short plane ride away for many Americans, especially those living on the South and East Coast.
Compared to other tropical destinations, flights are inexpensive and readily available. On top of that, it’ll only take you a few hours to get there.
Any Americans feeling stressed at home can easily book a resort stay for a quick escape, whether for a weekend or a full week.
The cherry on top? The Bahamas is full of all-inclusive resorts that make it easy to plan a set-it-and-forget-it vacation.
Take a load off at one of the best Bahamas resorts, listed below. I’ve got a handful of highly affordable options, along with mid-range and lux picks.
Skip the stress at these Bahamas resorts
Highly affordable options
British Colonial – Nassau
With its grand, historical architecture and its bevy of amenities, this is one of the best options in the Bahamas when it comes to all-inclusive resorts.
But you won’t be paying an exorbitant amount thanks to the British Colonial’s extensive deals and promos.
Start relaxing in its oceanfront cabanas and swimming in its massive outdoor pools. And be prepared to be choosy for meals; this resort has eight establishments to sample.
Sandyport Beach Resort
This stunning resort gives you everything you’d want in an all-inclusive stay while also letting you enjoy the amenities of the Old Towne Marina in Nassau.
I love this resort for a few reasons. First, guests stay in brightly painted two-story constructions that line the beach. Second, it has unique amenities like its lagoon-style pools and private dock. Third, the rooms include kitchens, letting you prepare a few casual meals at your own pace.
Grand Hyatt Baha Mar
This absolutely massive all-inclusive resort offers a familiar setup and range of amenities.
If you want to disappear amid a beachy playground with a private beach, six outdoor pools, multiple bars and lounges, a casino, and full-size tennis courts, look no further. Despite its size and range, it’s a relatively elevated resort.
Mid-range Bahamas resorts
Warwick Paradise Island
This unique pick isn’t quite like the other resorts on Paradise Island. Though smaller and more compact, its offerings are gorgeous and well-kept. I’m a big fan of the massive outdoor pool and its closed-in, private beach.
This resort also has five restaurants and two bars, letting you fully relax without going off-site. This is an adults-only resort, which makes it ideal for couples who want to up the romance factor while escaping election stress.
Goldwynn Resort & Residences
Like the British Colonial, this resort feels like a steal thanks to its reasonable prices and next-level offerings. Also, it looks like a James Bond lair.
The resort’s architecture is modern and clean, unlike many Caribbean hotels. That gives you a unique atmosphere to soak up the tropical delights, especially for those who like minimalist accents.
Like the title suggests, apart-hotel-style lodgings are available. On top of that, guests have access to water sports, a private beach, a fitness center, and an on-site restaurant.
Lux pick
Rosewood Baha Mar
This highly-rated hotel has just about everything a vacationer could want to escape election stress.
From a light and relaxing design to engaged and helpful staff to its range of on-site amenities, the Rosewood Baha Mar takes its hospitality to the next level.
Its beachfront villas put you right on Nassau’s Cable Beach, but the grounds are also dotted with swimming pools and relaxing gardens.
