This is a very exciting time for The Bahamas. 

Our Tourism Industry continues to experience strong market rebound and recovery, even in the midst of the Global Covid Pandemic. The positive visitor arrival trends speak to the pent up demand for our destination and the global confidence and interest in Brand Bahamas. Amidst the many challenges, we are confidently positioned for further growth and development, and continue to make the expansion of investment opportunities for local and international investors a shared priority. 

The redevelopment of what was the “Beach Tower” at Atlantis into a brand new property, “Somewhere Else” further reaffirms the strength of The Bahamas’ tourism product viability, overall investor confidence and the commitment of The Government to support Tourism Stakeholders. 

This new boutique resort, inspired by world-renowned musician Pharrell Williams’ artistic sensibilities and the well-established reputation of David Grutman for luxury and hospitality, will be another standout among Paradise Island’s many stellar offerings.

The redeveloped resort is set to open in 2024 and will create more direct employment for hoteliers, entertainers and culinary professionals and also serve as a critical business support for countless other persons who are indirectly employed in the hospitality industry.

It is a signal to the world that The Bahamas is not only “Open for Business” but remains the premier tourist destination in the region.

We are very excited for this venture and look forward to this project being realized, even as we continue to deliver exceptional product and service experiences to our domestic and international visitors.
