Resorts World Bimini Bahamas, the multi-million-dollar, luxury gaming facility set to open in North Bimini in the first quarter of 2013, recently unveiled stunning renderings showcasing the highly anticipated venue. The casino is being launched by a partnership between RAV Bahamas Ltd., developer of Bimini Bay Resort & Marina and Rockwell Island Beach Estates, and Genting Malaysia Berhad.

The 10,000-square-foot, world-class casino located within Bimini Bay Resort will introduce an entirely new concept to the destination and feature state-of-the-art gaming including popular table games, slots and a sports book within a modern South Beach décor, a sleek entertainment bar and a restaurant lounge. "With interiors showcasing a unique, chic and modern design, the casino is ideally positioned within the resort, enjoying serene vistas of the turquoise waters and the resort's mega yacht marina," said Dana Leibovitz, president of Resorts World Bimini Bahamas.

"We are also already considering additional entertainment amenities for phase two of the casino that will further make Bimini Bay a distinctive destination," Liebowitz said. The addition of the new casino will positively impact and enhance the tourism economy of Bimini, by creating employment for 130 Bahamian residents as well as indirect employment opportunities for inhabitants of the island. "This new casino is the first step in our plans to develop and showcase Bimini as a world class leisure destination.

The benefits to the local economy will be vast as we continue expand our business with Resorts World Bimini," stated Leslie Bethel, chief operating officer of RAV Bahamas. Additional developments for the destination include a new high-speed ferry service from Florida to Bimini offered by Balearia's Bahamas Express, which will launch in mid-November 2012. Resort World Bimini and Bimini Bay Resort & Marina are also actively working on attracting additional airlift and convenient transportation to the island.
