Bimini Blue Water Resort

This is essentially a resort complex for sportfishermen, with complete dockside services and 32 modern slips -- one of the country's finest places of its kind. The main building is a white-frame, waterfront Bahamian guesthouse, the Anchorage, where Michael Lerner, the noted fisherman, used to live. It's at the top of the hill, with a dining room and bar with views looking out to the ocean. The midsize bedrooms contain double beds, white furniture, wood-paneled walls, and picture-window doors that lead to private balconies. The Marlin Cottage, although much altered, was one of Hemingway's retreats in the 1930s. He used it as a main setting in Islands in the Stream. It has three bedrooms, three bathrooms, a large living room, and two porches.
