We took a mid December vacation to Bimini on a small boat and two jet skis. The weather for the crossing from Miami was challenging in December, but Vinnie and Erika were fantastic to work with when we were delayed. Once we arrived, the house was flawless, and perfect for our family trip. The house was fully stocked with a gas grill with plenty of gas, pots and pans, dishes, silverware, seasonings and spices, satellite TV in each room, Wi-Fi, and most importantly, a coffee maker and coffee. The canal the house is located on was extremely peaceful, with very little boat traffic. It was a perfect place to take the boys and take them spearfishing, and let them go fishing whenever they wanted while I relaxed on the porch.
Vinnie knows the island very well, and had recommendations for anything and everything we wanted to do, or where to get what we needed. It was an awesome experience, and was only made better with two teenagers visiting their first foreign country, and driving themselves there on jet skis. We’ve already started planning our next trip and can’t wait.

“Wow what a beautiful view” was the very first thing I heard coming from the third floor balcony when we unloading the boats. This house was absolutely perfect in every way for us. There was more than enough room at the dock to accommodate two thirty foot class center console fishing boats along with enough beds to sleep everyone comfortably. After a full day of trolling for wahoo we were able to come back turn on the satellite TV to sports center for some back ground noise and pretend to be a gourmet chefs in the kitchen that any professional chef would love to cook in. The pictures of this house honestly do not give it justice and neither does this review. What I found to be most accommodating was Erika and Vinnie. When it came to the time for our trip the few days leading up the weather turn unfavorable for our crossing so we were back and forth with Erika and Vinnie both via phone and email. Erika responded to our emails quickly and Vinnie seemed to always just be a phone call away. But the weather cooperated and we were able to have a great trip and found this hidden gem. We already have our next trip in the works with family flying in to the airport which is walking distance from the house in the near future. I would highly recommend this house it is close to everything Bimini has to offer. The only thing I would recommend is stay longer than two night it is worth every penny.

My group of 8 rented this beautiful home for the New Years holiday. We traveled by boat and couldn't have been more pleased with the accommodations. We pulled up to the dock and his house cleaner was there waiting for us. Vinny the owner was always reachable and answered any questions we had. The house was fully stocked with any kitchen supplies we needed. The home was recently renovated, all the kitchen appliances are basically brand new. He has a massive TV, perfectly working grill, working bicycles for most guests, loud sound system (inside and out) and great wrap around deck. The upstairs is basically a whole another apartment, two balconies, big TV, and basically a full kitchen!
The home is very open. Maybe a little too open for some (when people get moving in the am, the whole house might as well wake up). But why sleep when you have scuba, snorkeling, and fishing to do.
If you have a boat this is your spot. We caught a 4ft Wahoo, cut it up right on his dock and grilled it within an hour of being pulled from the ocean. YUMM.
After traveling around most of the island via boat and bicycle we came to the conclusion we had the best home and wouldn't have picked a different place. Vinny we look forward to another epic trip to your home in the future. Thank you!
