MONTEGO BAY, December 18, 2009 – Sandals Whitehouse European Village & Spatoday reopened following four months of upgrades and renovations to the Luxury Included® resort, on pace with original estimates set in August 2009 by Gordon ‘Butch’ Stewart, chairman and founder of Sandals Resorts.
“The resort looks fabulous and is in top-notch operating condition,” said Stewart. “While we regret the inconvenience of the closing, the wait was worth it and we are thrilled to share the new and improved Sandals Whitehouse with our guests.”
As part of Sandals Resorts’ commitment to exceeding guests’ expectations, the renovations to the resort will further enhance the Luxury Included® experience for all resort travelers. Following the project, changes to the resort property included upgrades to soft goods and furnishings throughout the expansive resort property and renovations to all resort restaurants, the main lobby area and treatment rooms at the resort’s exclusive Red Lane® Spa. The top two categories of suites – the One Bedroom Penthouse Honeymoon Beachfront Suite and the One Bedroom Walkout Honeymoon Beachfront Suite – were completely refurbished, adding updated furniture, upgraded soft goods and new plasma TVs, offering an enhanced setting for resort guests.
In addition, debuting with today’s reopening, guests of Sandals Whitehouse will be the first to experience Neptune’s, a new Mediterranean-themed dining concept. Created by Sandals Resorts International, Neptune’s offers classic Mediterranean cuisine, a growing favorite among diners worldwide not only for its contribution to healthy living, but for its robust flavor and emphasis on fresh seafood. Diners will delight in Neptune’s’ casual European elegance while feasting on such dishes as a traditional Meze of marinated olives, feta lamb kebabs and tzatkiki to saffron-infused Bouillibasse. Neptune’s will be located in the former Arizona Restaurant and there are plans to expand the concept to other Sandals Resorts in the New Year.
Recently named one of the top hotels in the Caribbean by Travel + Leisure’s World’s Best Awards, Sandals Whitehouse is beautifully set within a pristine 500-acre nature reserve on Jamaica’s undiscovered south coast. The resort features three enticing seaside villages – French, Italian and Dutch – allowing guests to experience a true sense of Europe in the Caribbean, from enchanting piazzas and Mediterranean cuisine to quaint pastry shops and European-inspired architecture. The 50-acre resort boasts 360 rooms and suites in nine categories – all of which have breathtaking beachfront views; eight restaurants and six bars; the largest freshwater pool in Jamaica; and a sophisticated and authentic European-style square complete with duty-free shops, formal gardens, a stunning piazza and romantic cafes.
As with all Sandals Resorts Luxury Included® vacations, a trip to Sandals Whitehouse includes: superb accommodations; exclusive butler service in select room categories; gourmet dining; unlimited premium brand wine and spirits; championship golf; and a wide array of watersports, including snorkeling and scuba diving. Guest of Sandals Whitehouse can also experience the award-winning hotel at spectacular savings of up to 65 percent off rack rates through select dates in 2010 when they book a minimum three-night stay by January 7, 2010.

I enjoy quiet time and the simple pleasures of life. Discovering a new pleasure the natural eye may overlook is ever so exciting is ever so exciting to me! I hate cooking. Yet, I enjoy the beauty of culinary art and finding new tastings to satisfy my pallet. I’m a reality T.V. buff that can watch a Hells Kitchen marathon all day. Yet, my life is filled with the joys of planning and executing weddings. This is our blog… Enjoy!
