The Four Seasons Resort and Residences Anguilla, scheduled
to reopen March 23 following repairs from Hurricane Irma, detailed its
rebuilding challenges.
"While the logistics of delivering to the island the
volume of necessary materials and systems required to complete our repairs have
been challenging, we have worked tirelessly and leveraged Starwood Capital
Group's strategic relationships around the world to reopen as soon as possible,"
said Roy Shanholtz, vice president, hotel asset management for Starwood Capital
Group, the resort's owner.
"We recognize our position as the island's largest
private employer, and also realize the success of numerous local businesses
such as restaurants, air, land and sea transportation providers, local
attractions, and more is driven by our guests and we are eager to reopen to
bring much needed revenue back to the island."
He promised that the resort would be in "the pristine
condition that our guests expect, and our employees will be thrilled to welcome
them."
The resort opened under the Viceroy brand in 2010 and was
converted to a Four Seasons in 2016 with 181 rooms.
