A new £3.5 billion mega resort, which features its own golf course and more than 2,000 rooms is set to open in the Caribbean in March.
The Baha Mar resort
includes four luxury hotels which include the 1,000-room Baha Mar Casino
& Hotel, the 700-room Grand Hyatt, the 300-room SLS LUX, and
200-room Rosewood hotel.
The resort also features 200,000 square
feet of convention space, more than 50 restaurants, bars and clubs,
boutiques, spa, art galleries, 20
acres of beach and pools, a beachfront nature sanctuary and an 18-hole
golf course with ocean views which has been designed by golf legend Jack
Nicklaus and which Baha Mar hopes to host PGA Tour events
With a 100,000 sq ft casino and four
hotels, it is set to rival the popular Atlantis Resort and Casino just a
few miles away on Paradise Island.
According to its creators, the Baha Mar
will introduce a ‘new era of luxury, glamour, gaming and excitement’ to
the sun-drenched island, which draws visitors from all over the world.
A spokesman
for the resort said: ‘Baha Mar's vision will truly come to life once
the first guests sleep in our hotels, dine at our restaurants, snorkel
at our reef, lounge at our Cabana Club, play at our casino, dance in our
clubs until dawn, and experience the true soul of The Bahamas with
impeccable service.’
Rooms in the hotels feature 48-inch flat screen televisions, Nespresso coffee machines make and full or step-out balconies.
The resort, which has been financed by
the Chinese government, was scheduled to open in December but the
opening has been delayed until March 27th, with one of the hotels, the
Grand Hyatt at Baha Mar, not due to welcome guests until May 1.
It has taken 4,100 Chinese workers to build the resort.
The government hopes that Baha Mar will turn the Bahamas into a world-class gaming destination.
Explaining the delay in opening, Robert
Sands, a senior vice president for Baha Mar Ltd said the project has
been ‘quite complex’ and Baha Mar wants to be sure it can ‘offer the
complete luxury product’ when it opens.
Mr Sands added: ‘Our state-of-the-art casino will match what you would find in Las Vegas, Macao or Singapore.’
