Sandals Resorts International has purchased the recently shuttered Four Seasons Resort Great Exuma at Emerald Bay in the Bahamas. According to Sandals Resorts founder and chairman, Gordon “Butch” Stewart, the 500-acre property, which features a championship Greg Norman golf course and world-class marina, is set to become a Sandals resort and will be called Sandals Emerald Bay, Great Exuma, Bahamas. Following certain enhancements customary to the Sandals Resorts brand, including an expansive new pool complex and additional dining establishments, the resort will open Jan. 22, 2010. Unfolding like a grand estate, Sandals Emerald Bay is set along a 1.6-km stretch of white sand beach on Emerald Bay. The all-suite resort will offer a selection of 190 luxury accommodations with styles that range from beachfront villas to bay house settings – all oceanfront, all extremely spacious and all serviced by butlers trained by Sandals Resorts through the company’s exclusive partnership with the Guild of Professional English Butlers. Other amenities include a fully equipped tennis centre featuring six Har-tru courts lit for night play with professional stadium seating fit for competition; a full-service Red Lane Spa with 22 indoor treatment areas and six exotic outdoor sanctuaries; plus six gourmet restaurants, including four new concepts introduced by Sandals Resorts, a fine dining seafood restaurant, an authentic Italian brick-oven pizzeria, a French-style café and a traditional British pub complete with a pool and snooker room. To complement its ocean views, the property will also debut three pools including a new freshwater pool. The resort will also cater to business and meetings customers, offering 1,170 square metres of flexible indoor and outdoor meeting space. This includes three large ballrooms with separate event entrance that can be converted into smaller rooms, all with access to a dedicated conference facility kitchen and two meetings rooms, which are all supported by round-the-clock conference and technology services.

Sandals Resorts has launched Island Routes, a luxury tour company.
Island Routes will offer more than 80 land and water tours in Jamaica, available for booking in June. Tours in Antigua, St. Lucia, Turks and Caicos and the Bahamas will roll out in the fall, according to Sandals CEO Adam Stewart.
"The creation of Island Routes was a natural evolution for our company, which has been headquartered in Montego Bay for 25 years," Stewart said. "We are pleased to finally share years of firsthand knowledge and experience in the Caribbean with the world."
The excursions will cover regions in and around Negril, Ocho Rios, Montego Bay and Whitehouse. Tours will include bike tours of the Blue Mountains, zipline canopy tours, Dunn's River Falls and dolphin encounters.
The tours can be booked by all visitors to Jamaica, not just guests at Sandals, Beaches, Royal Plantation and Grand Pineapple Collection resorts.
IslandRoutes.com will launch shortly and will include pricing, booking details and tour descriptions.
