If you are just looking for a place to sleep at night, then this is a good choice, but be prepared with enough cash in hand (hotel does not accept credit card at all, including for food and drinks). The rates I was quoted at were $80 for a single bed, $100 for a room with two beds, or $130... More

Excellent price for the room: basic, but clean and quiet. There was no refrigerator, so I would ask for one or pay extra for a room with a kitchenette next time. Bring lots of bug spray because sand flies come out before sunset.

The Thirsty Turtle Yacht Club is conveniently located in South Bimini not far from the airport. Although, I didn’t stay at the hotel, I had the pleasure of eating several meals at the restaurant/bar. The Thirsty Turtle has a dive shop affiliated with PADI on property. Chris and Ali who ran the shop were very nice and I spent 3... More

We just returned from staying one night at the Thirsty Turtle Yacht Club. The hotel is located just inside the first canal (on right side) as you enter Bimini's harbor. The room was very simple & large for us; had two queen beds. It had a kitchenette and a very clean bathroom. The hotel was recently bought and is being... More

Went to bimini in Mar. 2009. We had the time of our life. The Turtle is a blast, always a great place to meet new friends! Brent and Joni are great, the resort is clean, food is awesome and location is perfect! Would live there if we could!

We just got back from flying a private plane over to the island. This was not my first trip to the island but it was my first overnight stay there. First of all, Bimini should be noted for its scuba diving and deep sea fishing and not for its hotel accomodations. We found the "Yacht Club" to have very simple... More
