Hyatt Hotels has revealed plans to unveil a luxury Carribean resort in St. Lucia, scheduled to open in 2023.
The company announced that a Hyatt affiliate has entered into a management agreement with Terra Tour Service Resorts (TTS Resorts) – a private investor in tourism and hospitality – for the first Hyatt-branded hotel in St. Lucia.
Grand Hyatt St. Lucia will be a 345-key new-build resort located on the southwestern corner of the island, featuring an 8,000sq ft destination spa and fitness centre, as well as three swimming pools, to connect guests with their physical and mental wellbeing.
The resort will encompass two hilltops and command panoramic views of St. Lucia’s famous volcanic spires – called Gros Piton and Petit Piton – which are classified as world heritage sites.
Guests will be offered three restaurants; three bars; and more than 23,000sq ft of dynamic event spaces, plus a kid’s club and activity centre, retails shops and screening room.
“Tourism development is a key driver of economic growth and a priority for the island of St. Lucia, and we’re thrilled to collaborate with the team at TTS Resorts to bring the iconic Grand Hyatt brand to one of the Caribbean’s most popular tourist destinations,” said Camilo Bolaños, Hyatt’s VP of development and real estate.
“Set to be the premier luxury resort in St. Lucia, the new Grand Hyatt hotel is expected to provide both leisure and business guests with superior service within a multicultural backdrop of dramatic architecture, luxury spa and wellbeing facilities, innovative restaurants and sophisticated meeting spaces.”
Grand Hyatt St. Lucia follows a significant planned expansion of the Hyatt brand footprint in the Caribbean, including Grand Hyatt Grand Cayman Hotel & Residences, Andaz Turks & Caicos, Hyatt Regency Grand Reserve Puerto Rico in Puerto Rico, and Hyatt Place Santo Domingo Piantini in the Dominican Republic.
