Genting is one of the most respected developers on the planet. If anything, their architectural changes will improve the environment in Bimini. Their advance teams have already found deficiencies in the Island infrastructure like sewer management and safety issues that they are helping address. If you ask merchants on the street how they feel about it, you will she they are ecstatic. Sherri Pratt of Sherri’s Beach Bar says: “It helps out economy. It creates a lot of jobs. It helps us to build houses, to eat a nice steak. Fish, conch and lobster. You all come and eat the fish conch and lobster.”

What a beautiful ship! I am getting booked right now! Just as Bahamians enjoy the boost to the economy, I enjoy the fact that I can get out of Miami for a fast and luxurious trip to an exotic play land and be back at work the next day. This new full service experience is going to go over big and greatly increase tourism and fun for all.

After years of economic doldrums, we are lucky to have foreign money built up the infrastructure both in Miami and the Bahamas along with the upgrade with modern, high-speed transportation. This will surely stimulate the economy in a profound way and help return tourism to the region. It is a thoroughly welcome and historic event.
