The hype
Guests love the pools and the friendly Bahamian staff (shoutout to LaRicca), but are frustrated by the 'nickel and diming' and worn-down room fixtures.
Resorts World Bimini
$195-350/ notte
Prenota se You want a quick, flashy Miami-adjacent escape with a casino and rooftop pool, and you don't mind a 'Vegas-lite' vibe on a quiet island.
Perché piace così tanto
- The adults-only rooftop infinity pool offers arguably the best sunset views in the Bahamas
- Seamless seaplane arrival (if you fly Tropic Ocean Airways) lands you minutes from the lobby
- World-class sport fishing and easy access to legendary conch shacks
In sintesi: A glossy, high-energy resort that feels like a spaceship landed on a sleepy Bahamian island—expect stunning pools but inconsistent maintenance and expensive, mediocre food.
Recensito da @ettevi_wanderlust: I spent an unforgettable weekend at Resorts World Bimini and I'm still dreaming about the views. My room had a balcony overlooking the most insane turquoise water I've ever seen. We spent our days hopping between the massive lagoon pool and the beach club hammocks. Pure bliss.
Cosa hanno detto gli ospiti che hanno soggiornato qui
Reality check
The 'luxury' label is doing heavy lifting; expect muggy rooms, occasional AC failures, and a 'mildew smell' that fights the air freshener.
- You are a group of friends looking for pool parties and casino nights
- You plan to rent a golf cart and explore the local culture outside the gates
- You are a Hilton Honors member using points for a quick getaway
Pulizia e manutenzione
6.8
- Housekeeping: Inconsistent. Daily service is offered, but reviews frequently mention missed spots and balconies left uncleaned.
- Bathroom hygiene: The biggest weak point. Recurring complaints of 'mildew smell', slow drains, and grout that needs scrubbing.
- Maintenance: Showing age. Peeling paint, broken AC units, and flickering lights are common complaints for a 'luxury' property.
- Linens & towels: Generally clean but can feel worn. Towel cards are strictly enforced, which is annoying.
- Odors & scents: A persistent 'musty' or 'damp' smell in many rooms due to the high humidity and AC struggles.
Sleepability™
6MODERATO
0-4RUMOROSO
4-7.5MODERATO
7.5-10SILENZIOSO
- DJ bass from the rooftop pool (Monkey Business) bleeding into 5th-floor rooms
- Loud hallway chatter and slamming doors due to poor soundproofing
- Ferry and tram traffic noise for rooms facing the marina/road
Prima di prenotare
Buono a sapersi
- The 'Fisherman's Village' shopping area is often a ghost town with shops closed randomly.
- Cash is king on the island—bring plenty of USD for the local conch shacks and golf cart rentals.
- The tram service is free but chaotic and slow; renting a golf cart ($80-$100/day) is virtually mandatory for sanity.
Cosa portare
- DampRid bags or moisture absorbers (seriously, the rooms get muggy)
- Insulated tumbler (drinks melt instantly in the Bahamian sun)
- Strong bug spray (sand flies at the beach can be vicious, especially at dusk)
Genio delle camere
Migliori scelte
- Floors 2-4, Ocean View: Best balance of view and distance from the rooftop noise.
- Exclusive Suites (Ground Floor): Feature private patios, but be warned—they open directly to the lagoon pool where guests swim right up to your space.
Camere da evitare
- 5th Floor rooms directly under the rooftop bar (vibration/noise)
- Ground floor lagoon rooms if you value privacy (zero separation from swimmers)
- Room 238 (specific reports of broken fixtures) and the '344 block' (reports of extreme humidity)
Genio delle richieste camera – copia e incolla
“I am requesting a room on the 3rd or 4th floor, Ocean View side. Please ensure it is NOT a connecting room to minimize noise, and verify the AC has been recently serviced to avoid humidity issues.”
FAQ e consigli nascosti
Tutto ciò che vuoi davvero sapere prima di prenotare.
Is the ferry worth the savings?
Rarely. It eats up half your day with customs and travel time. The seaplane (Tropic Ocean Airways) lands you at the resort in 25 minutes and is a far superior start to the trip.
Can I use the Beach Club?
Yes, BUT check the Virgin Voyages cruise schedule. If a ship is in port (usually Scarlet Lady or Valiant Lady), the Beach Club is closed to hotel guests.
Is the food all-inclusive?
No. Food and drinks are à la carte and pricey (think $25+ for a burger). There are no all-inclusive packages for hotel guests.
Do I need a golf cart?
Yes. The resort is sprawling, and the best food (Joe's, Stuart's) is in Alice Town/Bailey Town, a mile or two away. Walking is not practical in the heat.
Is the casino big?
It's 'boutique'—small but functional with table games and slots. Don't expect Vegas, but it scratches the itch.
Are there hidden fees?
Yes. A daily resort fee (~$39) and a 12% VAT on everything. Also, a $100 charge if you lose the plastic towel card.
Suggerimenti degli Insider
- ✨
The 'Hidden Treasures' convenience store in the lobby is almost never stocked; buy water and snacks at a local grocery store in Bailey Town.
- ✨
For the best sunset, skip the crowded rooftop bar and head to the wraparound balcony on the 5th floor (near the gym)—it's often empty.
- ✨
Radio Beach (public beach) often has clearer water and fewer crowds than the resort beach, plus a sunken ship (Gallant Lady) you can see from shore.
5 cose da sapere prima di partire
💡The 'Lagoon Pool' on the ground floor is essentially a moat for the first-floor rooms—zero privacy.
💡The shower pressure is hit-or-miss; some rooms have rainfall heads that are more like a drizzle.
💡You might lose power or water briefly; island infrastructure is fragile, especially during storms.
💡The 'Arcade' is a sad corner with 3-4 machines that often don't work.
💡Flies can be aggressive at the outdoor dining spots—cover your food immediately.
