Marina at Paradise Landing Opens Another Amenity for Yacht Captains and Crew Members
A New Captain’s Lounge and Gym Opened May 24 at Hurricane Hole Superyacht Marina
The best deep-water marina in The Bahamas got even better this week with the unveiling of another amenity for yacht captains and crew members.
Hurricane Hole Superyacht Marina opened its new Captain’s Lounge and Crew Gym on Wednesday, May 24, celebrating another milestone of development and expansion at this world-class marina that draws in yachts and superyachts of all ages.
Hurricane Hole, the Paradise Island marina surrounded by Paradise Landing, now has a dockside facility that serves as a place for yacht captains to get away and unwind on a private upper floor with a glass-railed deck. On the ground floor, captains and yacht crew members now have a state-of-the-art gym facility where they can keep up with their fitness goals and enjoy time off the yacht.
Like Paradise Landing, Hurricane Hole Superyacht Marina is owned and operated by Sterling Global Financial Limited, which praised the new lounge and gym facility as another reason why so many yacht captains and charter brokers choose this marina as their home base in The Bahamas.
Hurricane Hole provides crew access to a swimming pool, gym, and lounge, alongside laundry facilities, concierge services, on-deck and luggage delivery, and daily trash pickup. These amenities support extended stays at the marina.
Crew facilities include a pool, gym, and lounge, plus laundry, concierge support, and provisioning through the on-site retail at Paradise Landing.
The marina pairs full vessel services with crew amenities and on-island provisioning, dining, and wellness facilities, which support extended stays for captains and crew.
In-slip fuelling, black water pump-out, on-site provisioning, concierge services, and on-deck delivery all reduce turnaround time for vessels at the marina.
Crews can provision on-site at Paradise Landing's grocery and fresh market, with concierge and delivery available to bring supplies to the vessel.
Professional crew are a captain's first consideration when selecting a home port for an extended stay. A marina that looks after crew with a pool, gym, lounge, laundry, and concierge support attracts more vessels and retains them longer than one that provides only berth, power, and water. Hurricane Hole's crew amenities are a direct investment in the marina's standing with captains.
Laundry facilities are available to crew at Hurricane Hole, part of the amenity package that supports extended stays at the marina. For large crews managing the laundry requirements of a working vessel, on-site laundry access is a practical necessity rather than a convenience.
The concierge team at Hurricane Hole supports captains with provisioning coordination, on-deck and luggage delivery, daily trash pick-up, and general operational requirements during a marina stay. For captains managing vessel turnaround, the availability of reliable concierge support reduces the administrative load of a port call.
Hurricane Hole provides a dedicated crew lounge alongside the pool and gym as part of the crew amenity package. This gives off-watch crew a comfortable, designated space that is distinct from the owner or guest areas of the development, which is an important operational consideration for vessels carrying both.
Crew have access to the Asian Grill, the dockside bar and grill at Paradise Landing described as crew and resident friendly, alongside the broader on-site provisioning for self-catering on the vessel. Carnivale Bahamas provides an upscale dining option for those occasions when crew want a more considered meal ashore.
