Our editors spotted a $268 rate at the Bimini Big Game Club for May 18–22 on Google Flights, and it’s the kind of price that makes a spontaneous Bahamas trip easy to justify. Bimini pricing can climb fast as the season tightens, especially at properties with direct marina access, so finding a sub-$300 window here stands out.

The Setting You’re Walking Into
The Bimini Big Game Club Resort & Marina puts you directly on the harbor in Alice Town, where boats tie up just steps from your room and the day starts with crews heading out to sea. This is one of those places where the setting does the work. You’re surrounded by docks, water, and constant activity, with everything arranged around a 75-slip marina that still operates the way it always has.

You’re not tucked away. You’re in it.

Rooms open onto gardens, paths, and the marina itself. If you book a balcony or patio, you’re looking straight at the boats. Lines knock softly against hulls, engines fire up, and by mid-morning the docks are already in use. It’s active without feeling staged.

What Makes This Hotel Stand Out
This is one of the Bahamas’ long-running fishing and dive hubs, and it still functions that way. The dive shop is on-site, so if you want to get out to reefs, wrecks, or shark dives, you’re walking a few steps and boarding. No transfers, no scheduling gaps.

Fishing is just as central. Charter boats run directly out of the marina, and even if you’re not heading offshore, you’re surrounded by anglers, crews, and a steady flow of arrivals and departures that keep the place grounded in what Bimini actually is.

The beach is close — about a three-minute walk — so you can alternate between harbor and open water without planning your day around transportation.

On property, everything feels used, not decorative. A freshwater pool, hammocks between palms, a shaded area with pool tables and ping pong. You pass through these spaces naturally, not because they’re programmed.

Where You’ll Spend Time
The center of gravity here is the Bimini Seafood Company & Conch Bar, right on the water. Conch salad, grilled fish, cold drinks — and a steady mix of guests and locals coming in from the docks.

Hemingway’s Poolside Rum Bar stays busy through the afternoon, with drinks in hand and a clear view of what’s happening across the property. It’s easy to drop in and stay longer than planned.

Then there’s Sharkies Bar & Grill, where things lean more casual, especially when the fish fry energy picks up. Music, simple food, open-air seating — it feels like part of the town, not separate from it.

The Rooms
Rooms here are straightforward and functional, with air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and clean, coastal design. The value is in the location, so the best move is a marina-facing room. That view changes the stay.

Cottages add more space and a closer connection to the water, which makes a difference if you’re staying multiple nights or traveling with a group.

You’re not booking this hotel to stay inside.

Who This Rate Is Best For
This is for travelers who want immediate access to the water — divers, anglers, and anyone who prefers a hotel that connects directly to the destination instead of separating you from it.

It also works if you’re planning a short trip. You land, check in, and you’re already where you need to be.

Why Book It Now
At $268, you’re getting into one of Bimini’s most established hotels at a price that doesn’t usually stick around once demand builds.

You’re close to the beach. You’re on a working marina. You’ve got food, drinks, diving, and fishing within a few steps.

And you’re in a part of the Bahamas where the experience is defined by what’s happening around you — not what’s been added for show.

It’s also easier than ever to get to Bimini. American Airlines has just added its first-ever flights to Bimini, a meaningful change for an island that has long relied on smaller carriers and limited schedules. The new service from Miami puts Bimini on a major U.S. airline map for the first time, with a flight time of under an hour. It simplifies the trip entirely — fewer moving parts, more reliability — and makes quick, short-stay getaways like this one far easier to plan.
