On the outside wall of each suite is an extensive rod rack, a bucket for cleaning reels, and a freshwater hose for washing rods and all other equipment each day – essentials for the harsh saltwater environment of the Bahamas. The entrance to each cottage leads to the furnished sitting room – an ideal area for laying out tackle and equipment and offers a place to go if your roommate is asleep. To one side of the sitting room is the bathroom with a very large walk-in shower and lots of shelf and hanging space. Each bathroom has plenty of towels, two waffle-weave robes, a hairdryer, electrical outlet (electricity is standard US 110 volt), as well as a full range of bathroom products. To the other side, through double sliding doors, is a spacious bedroom with two comfortable queen-sized beds. Both the sitting area and the bedroom have glass doors that open up small waterfront porches and amazing sunrise views.

The layout of Mangrove Cay’s accommodations allows an early rising angler to work with their fishing gear in the sitting room or have an early shower without waking up his companion. Likewise, one guest can take a nap in peace before dinner while the other has another room to do what they wish.

The daily meals are another of Mangrove Cay Club’s achievements. Breakfasts consist of fresh fruits, coffees and pastries as well as eggs, bacon, grits and sausage. Dinners focus on fresh seafood; local fishermen stop at the Mangrove Cay Club dock each day while the chef selects their freshest catches. His evening meals often include lobster, grouper, snapper, conch and even stone crab. The homemade desserts are also guest favorites. Hors d’oeuvres are served daily at the bar during cocktail hour.

Anglers prepare their own lunches each day from an extensive sandwich bar. From time to time the kitchen will pre-pack a lunch such as fried chicken and salad. In either case, lunches are packed in a cooler and eaten on the water.
