Margaritaville Beach Resort Nassau, The Bahamas’ newest luxury island escape located on the eastern end of the famous Junkanoo Beach, offered a first look at the resort with a ribbon cutting ceremony.
Mr. John Cohlan, Chief Executive Officer, Margaritaville; Mr. Ning Yuan, Chairman, China Construction of America; Ambassador Qingli Dai, Ambassador to China, The Bahamas; and Hon Hubert Minnis, Prime Minister of The Bahamas, spoke at the event.
“Just as The Bahamas is coming back, the City of Nassau and the Nassau Waterfront are coming back,” said the Prime Minister. “The historic City of Nassau and downtown are being transformed before our very eyes.”
Following introductions, guests received a first look of the resort’s amenities and offerings on a guided property tour, which concluded with champagne and hors d’oeuvres in the lobby.
Prime Minister the Most Hon. Dr. Hubert Minnis said today at the official opening of the Margaritaville Resort at The Pointe.
The Prime Minister said the issue of derelict buildings in downtown Nassau must be addressed if Nassau is to meet its potential.
“There are too many derelict buildings in the city center,” said Prime Minister Minnis. “They are eyesores. While some of the old buildings can be refurbished, many have to be demolished.”
Once the issue is addressed through legislation, the Government will seek to ensure that buildings in the city center are no longer abandoned and left to deteriorate, including government and commercial buildings, he said.
Inspired by the brand’s iconic state of mind, Margaritaville Beach Resort Nassau, managed under Aimbridge Hospitality, captures the essence of Bahamian culture to provide guests with a relaxing, laid-back oasis. The resort offers 11 signature food and drink establishments and 300 hotel rooms and residential condominium units, boasting direct ocean views.
