Quiet little getaway

If a quiet peaceful beach getaway is your thing this is the place for you. My only recommendation is rent a golf cart from Ken, there are none on the south side to be had. Also bring your own food the options on the south are severely limited.

It was my 62nd birthday!

I was there for my 62nd birthday with two of my girlfriends and it was a fabulous experience. The three of us was experiencing Bimini for the first time! The food was fabulous! We truly enjoyed big John’s bar and grill! The only issue we had was being eaten up by mosquitoes when we went out but besides that we loved it would go back. Kenny and his wife was a huge help with our stay!

Things to know

Add an international calling plan to your cell phone. BRING meat with you on board plane as checked luggage. There is not a bunch of things to eat and we found out afterwards we could have packed steaks, chicken, etc…

Relaxation in Paradise

This is a comfortable large home in South Bimini. We enjoyed the laid back location and it felt nice to have the peace and quiet that you might not get on North Bimini. The home is large and as shown in the pictures. The internet did not work the entire time we were there, but they were trying to get it fixed. A couple things that might be helpful to know - you will definitely need a golf cart or some form of transportation unless you are planning to just stay in the house the entire time. There is no drinking water at the house so you need to go to the water/ice station and get water (the one on South Bimini only accepts small dollar bills so it would be helpful to have small dollar bills with you). The fairy ride to the North is $3/person and is also cash only. It is quick and easy to get over there. Food options on the south are a bit limited. We brought some food items with us in an extra suitcase and it was quite helpful. This is truly a place to unwind and relax!!

Very nice house, clean and comfortable. Plenty of amenities available. Location is only a block from the beach and easy to get around from. Only thing missing was a pool:)!

House is beautiful & well appointed. Island is beautiful & the property managers are awesome people

Amazing island for a relaxing trip - the beach is un-crowded, we were the only ones on it most days, exploring the island on a golf cart was a lot of fun, the locals are super nice & cheerful. Very limited food options on the island though. We brought food over on the ferry & the little grocery store on the South Island was very limited. Smalls takeaway was great for a few meals. Have to go to the North island for any real groceries though. Water is crystal & there is a nice reef down the street. House lacks any real view though - that’s the only drawback of this house. But the beach is only a block away! I would’ve stayed here 2-weeks easy! 😄

Great House w/Dockage & Golf Cart!

This is our first time renting this property and we were really impressed with how nice and new the house is. ACs in every bedroom a big plus! Fully stocked kitchen. This place had everything you need w/a great location midway on the canal. Ken is super and available to help with any questions/concerns. We have already booked it again for next year!

Great overall experience!

Great location, very close to the sea though not overlooking to the beach. Could not have asked for a more secluded, covid-free holiday. Kenny was very helpful and available as he lived close-by, he was flexible to accommodate our arrival dates due to the covid testing times, he met us with his boat and helped us to check in to the house. The unit is well furnished, has modern equipment and was big enough for two families (four adults and four kids), just as it was advertised. A/C units in each room, operating without a problem. Had a small private dockage space which helped us to make use of our boat (in and out) though we did not berth it there. A few minor issues; the grill was not firing up well so we could not use it during our stay, the door locks are a bit tricky and one of them never worked so we had to leave one door unlocked all the time but no one really bothered us, it was very safe, and the pre-check in cleaning could have been a bit better. Overall, a great place to stay, highly recommended for families. Bring lots of bottled water though.
