About this property

Waterfront Cottage in a Bimini oasis

A unique piece of paradise in North Bimini, “Martin’s” villa (named for Martin Luther King, who also loved Bimini, coming here to meditate, write, and explore the mangroves) sleeps two and overlooks the water with an open bright living space and a full kitchen, nestled in a lush half-acre enclave. Enjoy our deck right on the water for outdoor BBQ, or just watching the boats go by and birds gliding and swirling. The property has 100 feet of waterfront and a large dock. No additional cost for boat docking; boats up to about 28' have docked here (low tide about 24"). No canals, no condos. Martin’s offers an authentic Bimini-island experience outside the resort and the condos, without sacrificing creature comforts and style. A private, gated property steps away from a friendly local community with great restaurants, bars, and stores. If you want a larger gathering with family or friends, we have two other cottages close by on our property (see #2814314 and #2875346). A quick cart ride south to Radio Beach and the attractions of Alice Town. And a quicker cart ride north to the restaurants, casino, and other offerings of Resort World. Enjoy our yoga mats - a great way to start the day watching the sunrise. Starlink high-speed WIFI for Netflix (or checking in at work, if you must). Swim/snorkel right out front. Spectacular sunrises, sunsets, and rising moons are at your doorstep!

great value

I've stayed at this cottage several times. For a single traveler or couple it is a perfect spot. Great view of the flats of north Bimini from the kitchen/dining room, and bedroom.

Best Place in Bimini

A group of us rented all 3 cottages for a week and it was even better than it looks on line. The views were spectacular and the cottages were so cute and clean. The property Manager was SO fast to respond - set up gold carts for us, dropped off propane when we ran out- just on top of everything! We are already planning our next trip. If I could give more than 5 stars I would!

Second Great Stay

Third trip from Florida to Bimini and second stay at this wonderful cottage. The location and the cottage itself make it my only choice in Bimini. So close to the best of island restaurants, groceries, beaches, not to mention the friendly locals. Hope to make this my mini-vacation from Florida destination many more times.

It was a quick 3 night trip. Loved looking at the water daily, just outside the living room door. Owner was quick to respond when needed. Cottage was clean and just adorable. I liked the local art in the home. It was a nice touch!

Beautiful cottage in paradise

We had the most amazing stay at the cottage. It was well appointed and had everything we needed. The access to the dock was amazing. Snorkeling was beautiful. We did not expect the expense of local goods and wears and the unfortunate lack of access to fresh foods (especially fresh fish) seems like everything was fried, but we did find fresh conch tropical salad! Be prepared to visit the Hilton and their ATM and possibly a meal or two to get something fresh. Overall ambience, accessibility, and the property manager was very helpful as well.

Amazing trip and place to stay.

It was absolutely perfect for us. Clean comfortable and the dock was exactly what we were looking for with bringing our boat and having easy access to explore. Location is perfect you can walk to liquor store and local grocery store. Very very limited but we were able to get what we needed. I e was the only thing we missed having but bought that at the store.

A Slice of Paradise

This cottage is truly a little slice of heaven! The communication was always extremely fast, if not instant. The property was clean, bright and well appointed. But the star of the home is the waterfront location. We saw tons of fish, starfish and even 2 stingrays! We loved our time here!

Greatest Stay on Bimini

Can’t say enough good things about this rental. It is exactly as expected. The home is delightful both inside and out. Equally great is the location. Weather during our stay was poor, but I would return to this home in a heartbeat in any weather. Only negative is the lack of internet we experienced, which I’m sure would have been corrected with provider if it were not over Christmas holidays.

Such sweet memories

We were very happy worth our stay. We followed the directions (landmarks) given and had no problem finding the place. The unit was exactly as described. Very well appointed. We did not need for anything during the duration. The beach chairs and umbrellas were used by all tenants and made the experience that much nicer. Being able to step out and sit in the dock at sunrise or wade in the perfect water at happy hour made the vacation feel special. I would recommend to anyone visiting the island

Perfect Island Cottage for 2 + Boat + Fur Baby 🐾

This Bimini Cottage was exactly what my husband and I was looking for and more. The cabin was bright, clean, comfortable, and roomy for a 1 bedroom/ 1 bath. We would stay here again hands down! If you are thinking of the Hilton this place is WAY BETTER! The location is great and view of the stunning crystal clear blue water and island breeze is beyond relaxing. The property manager and owner was a text away whether you were in need of a golf cart rental delivered, general information or an extra broom. To top off this memorable adventure, the local island kids next door brought us so much joy! They would stop by the dock and politely ask to play in the shallow water, they loved our dog and helped us wash him as he returned from a long salty sunny fun boating day! This was the perfect island getaway! Love this little gem! Will definitely be renting this place again soon! 💕

Dream Vacation Bayside Cottage

Perfect little cottage on the bay. Very conveniently located near to the port, casino, restaurants, bakeries, liquor store, convenient store and golf cart rentals. It included all kitchen, bathroom and bayside lounging amenities. We were able to entertain some of our friends in the back porch on the bay. It included an outdoor grill. We we able to jump off the dock and swim in the beautiful calm, clean, crystal clear water. We even saw a Stingray. Pamela, our cleaning lady was excellent, friendly and a beautiful ambassador to her island. The most peaceful and lovely place to stay in Bimini. We were able to chat with the manager via email when necessary. We recommend this cottage100% and will love to revisit this cottage the next time we are in Bimini. It was absolutely wonderful!

Amazing stay!!

I must say 10/10. I would so recommend this property to everyone and anyone. Beautiful view very morning, modern, and very clean. I loved that we had beach chairs to our access to use. They also had kayaks but we never really used them. Our friends who were staying at the Hilton and apartments of Bimini bay even said they would’ve rather stayed in the cottage. First time in Bimini and such a great experience. Also it’s near a good restaurant called Smittys.

About the host

Hosted by Shequira Rolle

Host profile image
Joe and Karen visited Bimini before they were married over 25 years ago. After island hopping with their two boys Pete and Sam (now grown) seeking out the best diving, fishing, and boating they finally bought these vacation cottages in Bimini in 2021. The whole family is certified Advanced scuba divers and Joe is a trained free diver. They wanted a place to share with extended family and rent to those seeking warm, stunning blue water and a friendly, local island community.

Why they chose this property

The location of the Cottages at Bimini (Ernie's, Martin's and West Wing) make it a special, idyllic place. It is a completely private enclave for you to nestle into comfortably, but only a stone's throw from the friendly local community with great family restaurants and bars, Edith's famous pizza, Pat & Ebbie's bar & grill, a small liquor store, groceries, and shops. The health clinic is right across the street. A quick golf cart ride south to Alice town will take you to wonderful restaurants, Radio Beach, Dolphin house, and all the attractions of authentic Bimini. Or take a quick right north and in 4 minutes you can experience the restaurants, Casino, and other offerings of the Hilton and Resort World.
.

What makes this property unique

Ernie's, Martin's and West Wing are all newly, fully renovated, with new kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms, and decks. In addition to partially shaded decks, Martin's and Ernie's also have beach areas to lounge in as you look over the beautiful waters and watch the boats cruise by. The sunrises, sunsets, and rising moons are spectacular. There is nice snorkeling right off the dock, or just stand and watch the fish and eagle rays swim by. We've been known to swim straight out from the dock to grab a lobster and a couple of conchs for dinner. And we welcome your dog.
