Baha Mar’s Planned March Debut Is Postponed for Third Time

March 25, 2015

According to reports in Hotels News Now and Travel Weekly, the 2,200-room Baha Mar megaresort in Nassau, Bahamas, faces new delays and will not begin its paced opening on March 27. These delays mean key stakeholders will have to wait longer still to realize the development’s full impact.

The statement from Baha Mar spokesperson Alyssa Bushey reads:

“From its inception, Baha Mar has committed to creating a gaming resort destination that will be unparalleled in the world. In setting our opening date for March 27, we relied in good faith on the representations of the resort’s construction manager and lead contractor. Last Friday (3/20), based on this party’s repeated assurances, Baha Mar announced that it would begin a paced opening beginning March 27 and culminating in its grand opening scheduled for early May.

“Subsequently, it has become clear that the contractor has not completed the work with an attention to detail consistent with Baha Mar standards of excellence. Anything less than a world-class facility and best-in-class guest experience is not acceptable to Baha Mar. As a result, Baha Mar will not begin its paced opening on March 27.

“Baha Mar expects to celebrate its grand opening the first week of May 2015, as planned.”
