Mahogany Club’s menu tells a story of Bahamian culture on every plate.

British Colonial Nassau: A Landmark of Style and History

Mahogany Club joins a property renowned for over a century of heritage. The independently owned British Colonial Nassau, managed by Aimbridge Hospitality, recently underwent a meticulous restoration, enhancing its early 20th-century charm while introducing modern luxury. The hotel features 288 guest rooms and suites, seven dining venues, two oceanfront pools overlooking a private 300-foot beach, and lush tropical gardens.
