Baha Mar Resorts in the Bahamas going ahead
Nassau-based Baha Mar Resorts in the Bahamas is finally going ahead with its proposed $2.5 billion, 1,000-acre Baha Mar Resort on Cable Beach.
The company, which put the project on hold in 2008 when partner Harrah’s Entertainment pulled out, operates the Wyndham Nassau Resort, the Crystal Palace Casino and the Sheraton Nassau Beach Resort. With a scheduled completion in late 2013, the project is set to break ground later this year.
Features include 3,000 rooms, a 100,000-square-foot casino, three spas, an 18-hole Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course, a retail village and 200,000 square feet of meeting space.
A short drive away is the Caribbean’s largest casino resort, Atlantis on Paradise Island, which has more than 1,000 slots and 80 table games and 300,000 square feet of meeting space.
Atlantis, according to recent local reports, will spend $100 million on renovations over the next two years. The makeover will include casino upgrading, suite renovations and three new restaurants.
