"With our new renovation, we are focused on further enhancing our guest experience with accommodations that combine Caribbean charm with contemporary comforts to provide a warm and inviting ambiance, while maintaining the high level of service and customization that is the benchmark of Wyndham," said Abdel Zouari, general manager of the Wyndham Sugar Bay Resort & Spa.
The highlight of the renovation will be the resort's completely transformed guest rooms and suites, each offering a commanding view of the Caribbean Sea and neighboring islands. All guest rooms will see the installation of new carpet and a fresh coat of paint. Guest suites will receive new bamboo furniture that will replace the existing armoires, bedside tables, coffee tables, chairs and beds while deluxe guest rooms will receive all new Island Plantation furniture. New lamps and lighting, as well as new luxurious soft goods and artwork, will add Colonial elegance to the d飯r in every room while new sleeper sofas in all suites will provide added comfort. Bathrooms will also be upgraded featuring imported marble tile and fresh wall coverings.
Along the resort's beachfront pool deck, guests will find bright new cabanas housing a variety of island-themed activities such as hair braiding and temporary tattoos; the resort's dive shop where guests can arrange snorkeling and scuba excursions; as well as an expanded Kids Klub location which offers a full-day of planned activities for younger guests. A selection of more-secluded cabanas will provide a tranquil backdrop for beachside spa treatments.
To compliment the resort's existing dining options, the resort has opened Tuscany; an upscale Italian restaurant serving a range of traditional Italian cuisine. Tuscany can accommodate 45 guests during two reservation-only sittings, and will be a supplement to the resort's all-inclusive plan.
