What to do and see in Nassau, New Providence Island: The Best Gift & Specialty Shops

November 24, 2021 Ying Subia

Nassau teems with Bahamian and British flavor. The capital city of the Bahamas boasts miles of spectacular beaches and stretches of vivid coral reefs perfect for snorkeling. Shop, dine, and sightsee, particularly along busy Bay Street, or if you're a James Bond fan, visit the British Colonial Hotel, which was used as a filming location for two of the Sean Connery-era movies. Visit during the famed Junkanoo Festival to experience a high-energy parade of spectacularly costumed dancers.

In a nutshell Little Switzerland in Nassau Bahamas offers best of what the bests may present in their business. When it comes to luxury time-piece and jewelry shopping, you need to be lucky to see a good variety, high quality and most importantly deal with professional sales representative who knows how to make a perfect balance on three angles of a sweet deal; customer happiness, employee achievement and incorporate benefit. I have been lucky to meet Jennifer and Latoya at this store. They made a wonderful deal on my favorite watch and a precious diamond necklace. Much appreciated ladies :)

Coin of the Realm

Reviewed By G221OCandersb

Just home from the Bahamas after a most fantastic trip. I went looking for a gold coin from the Bahamas and I found it at "the One and Only Coin shop"!!! It was a great find - a 20 dollars coin in gold from 1967 (proof version). Great service from the most friendly people - Karen and her mom. And a super price too not to forget. Great place to look for coins from the Bahamas - you will not regret a visit to the shop. Best regards from Denmark, Anders.

My family and I visited this store while we were in Nassau at port on a Disney cruise. I had always wanted to purchase a Tag Heuer watch but had never taken the time to shop and choose a time piece. The staff at this store is incredibly helpful and easy to deal with and made the process of buying a watch a pleasure. I could not say enough positive things about them. Ask for Alphonso who was my sales associate. He was patient, honest and a pleasure to deal with. I have the perfect watch (Aquaracer) and I am thrilled with it.

Stopped in here on our visit to Nassau. As my third time in Nassau, I’ve never been to this store and am glad I stumbled upon it. The soaps smelled amazing and got a few to use back at home. Definitely glad to have found this store!

Kay's Fine Jewelry

In 1989, the family began a journey that would take them from India to the Caribbean and into the hearts of many wonderful people. Kay’s Fine Jewelry was born as a family endeavor and, today, with locations throughout the 5 Caribbean islands, it remains a family owned and operated business with deep values in customer service and customer loyalty. Customers Are Extended Family: At Kay’s Fine, they adhere to the belief that truly meaningful customer service is as precious as any stone. They understand that people come to them seeking more than a piece of jewelry. They come to celebrate moments, commemorate milestones, remember loved ones, and build their own family legacies to pass down. In essence, they come to this family store looking to celebrate their own. Founder’s son Tesh Chugani expresses that “Each item purchased at KFJ, irrespective of dollar value, is celebrated and is a story. A Story about when, why, and who you were with”

We make sure to stop here every time we cruise to Nassau. The location is so convenient, across from the hard rock cafe and right beside a Starbucks. Make sure to talk to Jerry, we have been buying sets and various pieces from him for years. I have always felt that a lot of people overlook this store because the cruise lines are promoting other stores. They have fair prices and they have always been honest with us.
