Rosewood at Baha Mar Brings New Sophistication to the Bahamian Riviera

NEW YORK, July 28, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- In December 2014, Rosewood Hotels & Resorts is opening its next resort, Rosewood at Baha Mar, set on the white sands of Nassau's Cable Beach. In preparation for the opening, Rosewood has once again teamed up with international luxury travel network, Virtuoso®, to ensure the resort opens with luxury travelers eager to stay. Baha Mar marks the third Rosewood property to be accepted into Virtuoso's coveted Preview collection, a program designed for new hotels that benefit from building relationships with the network's elite travel advisors and generating interest and excitement with their high-end clientele. Virtuoso travelers will be wowed by the resort's opulent British Colonial architecture and interior styling, 200 guestrooms and suites with five luxurious beachfront villas, signature dining venues, private pool and beach access, as well as Sense® spa.

As part of Preview, a division of Virtuoso's renowned Hotels & Resorts Program that celebrates new and rejuvenated hotels, Rosewood at Baha Mar will offer value-added benefits exclusively for guests who reserve their stay through a Virtuoso travel advisor.  Those wishing to stay when doors open will receive:

• Daily breakfast for two guests
• $200 Sense® spa credit
• One category upgrade at time of booking (pending availability)
• Rosewood at Baha Mar departure gift (offered for first 100 bookings)

Booking dates for this offer are July 28- October 31, 2014. Stay dates are March 1- December 18, 2015.  Blackout dates include December 19-31, 2015. Rates start at $400 per night based on double occupancy. Tax and service charge not included.

"Rosewood at Baha Mar will bring a renewed sense of luxury to the Bahamas," says Albert Herrera, senior vice president of Global Product Partnerships for Virtuoso.  "The Baha Mar complex will restore a sense of glamor that was previously associated with the islands' golden era of the 1960's.  Virtuoso travelers will appreciate having a new, elegant option within the Bahamas along with the many activities it offers, all within an easy flight from most of the eastern U.S."

Rosewood at Baha Mar is a sanctuary within the $3.5 billion Baha Mar project, an elaborate multi-property enclave that will reset the standard for luxury travel in the Caribbean.  Located just 10 minutes from the Lyden Pindling International Airport, Baha Mar is a destination unto itself, offering the Caribbean's largest casino, convention center, 18-hole Jack Nicklaus signature golf course, and full array of leisure amenities. Baha Mar's Waterside Place will offer an intriguing mix of high-end international boutiques, as well as local artisan shops and additional dining venues. The Beachfront Sanctuary of Baha Mar will connect guests to the natural wonders of the Bahamas with an eight-hectare tropical river and lagoon experience featuring Bahamian flowers, native trees, flamingos, sea turtles, rays and more. 

Operated by Rosewood Hotels & Resorts, an ultra-luxury hotel collection with a storied history of managing elite, one-of-a-kind properties (including The Carlyle, A Rosewood Hotel in New York and Rosewood Mansion on Turtle Creek® in Dallas, Texas), Rosewood at Baha Mar will embrace Rosewood's Sense of Place® philosophy by offering authentic experiences, Rosewood's signature personalized service, and an unswerving attention to detail. 

Rosewood at Baha Mar joins an impressive roster of new hotels accepted into Virtuoso's Preview Program, including Park Hyatt New York and Portrait Firenze.
