The concierge staff is available at the hotel to assist guests with any requests or questions they may have during their stays. Private cars are available.
For your upscale clientele, Million Air, an airport for private jets, is located near the hotel.
The resort also has its own children's program, called Kids Club, which is open from 9:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. daily. The Kids Club is offered on a seasonal basis. Some of the activities here include Bahamian arts and crafts, beach games, playground fun, bowling, video games and field trips to the Straw Market.

Top-notch Accommodations
The Ocean Breeze Suites are among the best rooms to book at the Sheraton Cable Beach Resort. They offer a large private wraparound terrace with views of the landscapes, pool and ocean.
These suites also feature a bedroom with a separate adjoining parlor for entertaining, and include a wet bar area and an additional bathroom. They can also be converted into a one-, two-, or three-bedroom suites via adjoining rooms.
The Presidential Suites, however, are the most requested premium accommodations. Situated on the seventh floor, they come with the same amenities as the Ocean Breeze suites and are sold as two-bedroom suites; however, an additional room may be added to form a three-bedroom suite. This suite can be booked through the GDS.
Book either of these rooms for large families traveling together.
Other rooms with great views include the Ocean View Rooms and the Executive Suites, which have direct views of the ocean. The sun actually sets on the opposite side of the island, so none of rooms face sunset. However, the rooms offer incredible views of the sunrise.
