Marlin Bar Assistant Manager

LIVE THE ISLAND LIFE

In 2016, we launched our first Marlin Bar in Coconut Point, Florida as a laid back space where locals and travelers could gather casually over food and drink.

Two years later, a second oasis opened its doors in the mecca of mid-century modernism : Palm Springs, California. Since our guests are asking us for more, we are adding several throughout the United States over the next few years (and beyond).

The Marlin Bar is the perfect spot to shop, enjoy frozen cocktails, light fare with friends & family where friendly service and casual vibe are always the catch of the day.
