Ivoree, Thanks for the 5 star review, you are right, it is the friendly staff and people of Bimini that make our authentically Bahamian small resort something to love and return to. I often say its the about the people not the bricks...thanks for recognizing our whole team as the super stars of Bimini. Stephen Kappeler, Managing Director

Meliza thanks for the outstanding 5 star shout out for the associates, I am sharing with our team. If you did not realize, our small resort does boast higher service and cleanliness scores on Trip advisor and google over the Big Hilton up the road inside their gate. We appreciate your sharing the facts and we will keep working hard to please our guests. If any suggestions kindly share with me. Stephen Kappeler Managing Director, I live here.

Andre, the resort has been under a 500k Improvement plan for three years and the owner was here 1 year ago supporting the continued improvement of the resort. The resort guest scores have improved in both the restaurant and resort categories so you should consider to do your homework. If any guest is not satisfied with the resort you would be pleased to assist and improve any concerns. These two months the resort is under Hurricane season with usual few guests. There is no noise? I welcome assisting you.. The resort has a current 5 to 10 million dollar phase renovation plan and the owner clearly cares about the Bimini people first and the resort to begin actioning this continued improvement.

Big Game provides just enough of what you need for a weekend of fishing in the Bahamas. Definitely more of the old Bimini vibe rather than the nonsense with the casino up north, etc.

Sadly, Big Game Club is being mismanaged and lacking maintenance. It's literally falling apart. Too bad since it has a great history for the last 50 years or more. Completely disorganized and seems like ownership isn't spending any money to maintain or improve. Staff is very nice but, very understaffed and they have nothing to work with.

Shocking hotel and I paid nearly $400 after taxes and fees! RUN from this hotel! I can not believe, nor do I understand, how this hotel received any positive reviews. It is a dump! My room was made of cinder blocks painted yellow, I walked down what seemed like a scary alley way to get to my room which was at the back of the hotel, (I reserved a poolside room) next to a fence draped in mangled fabric overlooking a construction site, the shower handle came off in my hand, the room paint and grout were peeling and dirty, tv quality was poor every channel was pixelated, miscolored, lastly there was no internet reception. Not the worst thing but when you have work to do, it's a problem. I felt like I was in a third world country on the opposite side of the planet. Lovely people on the island but run from this hotel!

This place is great if you are a scuba diver. Other then that there is not much to enjoy. Sharky’s bar and grill on the property was the best food I ate on the entire island, if you are lucky enough to have Damien cook for you.
