- Jesus AAtlanta, Georgia109 contributionsA fantastic experienceGreat beach Bar/Restaurant, a very close beach by the cruise port, a $5 taxi or you can walk for 15-20 minutes. It was very busy at the beach, umbrella and 2 chairs were $40 and food and drinks expensive but is part of traveling, cash or credit cards accepted. Food and drinks were very good, lots of choices and service and the beach. DJ played great music and kept everyone entertained. Water was cold 🥶 but is out of their control. Thank you for a great time.Visited January 2024Travelled as a coupleWritten 9 January 2024

- Jennifer K1 contributionGreat time! Highly recommendJuly 31, walked off MSC Seashore and headed to Junkanoo. Was taken care of by Fenggy at Bikini Tiki Hit. He was excellent, as well as the security guard. The DJ played some great tunes. 2 chairs and an umbrella $40 with 2 shots Security Thomas made sure we weren’t bothered by people selling stuff, which is better than being at the beach in Cozumel or Costa Maya. Had a great time and we will be back on our next cruise! Blue Shark in a pineapple - delicious Thanks! Albert & JenniferVisited July 2024Travelled with familyWritten 31 July 2024

My problem with Bikini Tiki Hut was not the drinks or the food. Both were fine. My problem was that they said they take credit cards. They do not. They SAY they take credit cards, then they claim your credit cards “don’t work” and march you down to the ATM at Hotel Margaritaville to take out cash. How about tell customers up front you only take cash? Apparently that’s not an option. Very annoying. That said, if you bring plenty of cash and want to oveerpay a little bit for pretty good conch fritters and drinks, this is the place for you.

Do not go to Tiki. Everything about this place is deceptive. They lure you in from the entrance and all the staff applaud when you enter essentially throwing dirt in your eyes!
I ordered fried fish, plantain and Jerk pork to go. I had a rude awakening when I reached my hotel. Jerk pork was little pieces of pork chop fat smothered in uncooked jerk sauce. The fish was very small and not cooked through. I can go on all night about what was wrong with this $60 meal.
The drink I won't even mention.

Food was horrible. We ordered Mahi Mahi and it was over cooked, the flat bread was SO thick and uneatable. We complained to the waiter and he apologized but then brought our bill for full price. We paid and left totally disappointed and upset we paid $80 for very bad food

Attractive and highly atmospheric venue right on the beach. They advertise 3 for $10 local beer, but, surprise- they sold out and it’s not even 11:00 AM. Instead, they have local beer at $7 a bottle. We moved on, though it is a fun dive bar.

We visited for the first time around 3 years ago and had a great few hours at the Tiki Hut.
Owners and locals (Uncle George) were welcoming and prices were good back in 2019.
So we were looking forward to our stop at Nassau on our Carnival cruise (20th May) , arrived at the bar around 1pm.
So the beers are now 3 for $10 (used to be 5 for $10), Ok prices have gone up so didn't mind that.as still better than the cruise ship.
Ordered the 3 bottles of Sands beer for $10 and proceeded to hand over the $10 plus a dollar for the tip.
I was then told the total is $12.50 due to tax, I gave $13 and just sat down without making a fuss.
20 mins later left feeling I had been ripped off by a staff member how just wanted a bigger tip as there is no tax on beers in the Bahamas.
If you want a busy bar and don't care what prices you pay this may be a good location for you, I have included a picture of the food menu. We didn't touch that as prices seemed more than double what we would be prepared to pay.
Byron please sort our your staff before you loose more customers, they can't be making up lies to improve their tips.
P. S. I hope uncle George is still around 👍

Tiki Bikini Hut was our first stop on our first night in Nassau. This was where I was introduced to my newest addiction for the next week: cracked conch! As we entered the restaurant, the hostess announced our names and rang a cowbell while other guests cheered and applauded! We sat in the covered outdoors area. It was Sunday night so there wasn't too much going, but there was a DJ right next to us playing really loud music, and our view of the beach was blocked by the cabanas (the only negative parts of our experience). We ordered a bunch of appetizers to split between us. The food was incredible, and the DJ eventually moved. It looks like there are a number of fun activities you can do on the beach as well!

We had a wonderful breakfast/brunch on July 4th. The staff was very gracious and applauded every patron who came into the facility. The drinks were wonderful and the food was outstanding. The conch salad is served in a conch shell. The blackened grouper bits were like eating candy. Our waitress Beverly was attentive and brought the Chef Byron to the table to accept our raves about the food. Cruise visitors who are going into town should turn right when they reach the main street. You need to walk about about 1/4 mile (past the new Margaritaville hotel) until you come to Junkanoo Beach and the Tiki Bikini hut. Unfortunately there is not much open in Nassau at this time. But the short walk to the Tiki Bikini Hut is worth it. If you wear swimwear you can go swimming right off of the beach in front of the restaurant. And the prices were very reasonable! Wish we were back there today!

My husband and I went to Nassau, Bahamas this past week to celebrate our 13 year anniversary. We stayed at the Breezes hotel and went to the junkanoo beach. While there the view was amazing and the people were friendly and polite. We stopped by Tiki Bikini Hut and was served by the most beautiful bartender named Shanna Thompson. She was very attentive and always made sure our drinks were not empty. The whole staff at the tiki hut was amazing everyone was so invested in ensuring that guest hanging out had the best experience. The food was delicious and the coonch omg! Everything was so tropical and we enjoyed our stay and time there as we danced and interact with some of the natives there. Thank you to Ms. Shanna my husband and I are grateful to have met you. Definitely will be back!

The Tiki Bikini Hut was situated on Junkanoo beach just past our hotel. When you first go into the bar you are greeted by the staff ringing cow bells. The bar is circular with high chairs and extends out onto the beach where there is plenty of outdoor seating. The local beer is $7 a bottle but they have an all day offer of 3 for $10. We tried the conch fritters which is the local favourite. They were delicious served with a spicy hot mayonnaise. This ended up as our go to bar because the staff were so friendly . A must visit when in Nassau.

What are the drink specials like? I have seen photos of the menu/drink specials from previous years...but nothing current. Do they still have all you can drink for $30 or $9.99 for 4 beers and 4 shots?
Written 28 December 2019
I was there in September and they didn’t have the all you can drink special then. I think the specials change daily.

can you tell me if they had on-site or nearby massages on the beach?
Written 26 September 2018
I didn't see any taking place or any tables for it when I was there. If they do, it would be in public because they don't have an enclosed space. Hope this helps.

Do they take credit cards or cash only? We will there soon!

Do we need reservations? We visited the Tiki Bikini Hut a few years ago and would like to come spend another fun afternoon on your beach

We have gone twice without reservations. Tell Byron you read about it on Trip Advisor. He and his people will go out of the way to make your day enjoyable. The earlier you get there the better.
