A beachfront tiki bar on the honour system: pour your own and write it down. Cruisers are invited to it, and to the resort's buffet dinners with a beach bonfire.

Practical

Coordinate is the GeoNames point for Fernandez Bay Village. The honour-system bar has welcomed cruisers for years (2011-2021 reviews), with live music some nights. Dinner is $48 per person per night per the resort's dining page (appetisers, meat and seafood entrée, sides, dessert and a beach bonfire); add service charge and tax. One 2019 boat paid $158 for two with drinks. Reserve dinner by phone in the morning, or by 1-2:00 pm at the latest. Front desk +1 (954) 518-4500, WhatsApp 1 (242) 808-5711. Some reviews (2014) found staff less welcoming to boaters, and resort WiFi was not shared with boats in 2019. Lunch is $8-18 (conch burgers, grilled fish).
