The Bridge Inn provides a secluded, warm and friendly atmosphere, and is a perfect setting for a nature-lover’s vacation. Our warm hospitality begins when we welcome each guest with free transportation to and from the New Bight airport. The unique architecture of our main buildings features interior and exterior walls patterned from local limestone rock, and a landscape dotted with conch shells, palm trees and native flowering plants, paying compliment to the surrounding environment. This theme is also reflected in the native straw items, flowers and shells decorating the rooms and public areas.

Our family-owned and operated property is named for a small bridge that spans the nearby bone fish flats, and has been a local fixture for many years. There are 12 regular rooms in the original low-rise building, each with one queen bed, one twin bed and a shower. The three newer buildings, named Shad, Mullet and Bonefish in honour of residents of the flats, each have two 2-bedroom apartments, an upper and a lower unit, both with private entrances. The units are spacious, with a full kitchen (including coffee-maker and microwave), a dining area, 2 queen-size beds and 1½ baths. On-site laundry facilities are free to guests.

There is a restaurant and bar on site, offering the best in local and international cuisine and beverages. Arrangements can be made for bone-fishing with a local guide; deep-drop fishing for red snapper, black snapper and Nassau grouper; trawling, or sports fishing, for blue marlin, Wahoo and mahi mahi; scuba diving with one of the local dive operators; tours to nearby attractions like the Hermitage, the bat caves and the Col. Andrew Deveaux Plantation; and an escort for nighttime crabbing, where you can catch land crabs, a staple of the local diet. If you like to explore on your own, rental cars are available on premises and bicycles are free to guests.

For those seeking more quiet pursuits, there is a secluded mile-long beach, just a short walk away, with a shallow lagoon perfect for sunbathing, swimming or snoozing, with great reefs for snorkeling right off the beach. (Snorkeling gear is not provided.) The pathway to the beach is overhung by a canopy of Casuarinas, providing a perfect “nature trail” for your daily walks.
