On November
1, 2009, big changes
took place at most SuperClubs
all-inclusive resorts…not in the resorts themselves, but in their
names. Here’s
a score card to keep you current:
Grand Lido Negril is now Breezes Grand Resort
& Spa Negril; Grand Lido Braco is now Breezes Rio Bueno; and Starfish
Trelawny becomes Breezes Trelawny.
Breezes Montego Bay is no longer listed under that name since it ceased
to be a SuperClubs property last September. All other Breezes, Hedonism
and Rooms
properties retain their names. According to Chairman John Issa, this is
the
first step to brand consistency, adopting the name of the company’s
most
popular brand across a broader spectrum.
When rebranding is
complete, there will be 11 Breezes Resorts in 6 countries.
All-inclusive vacations at SuperClubs resorts include multiple dining
options in themed restaurants, unlimited premium brand drinks, and a
host of land and water sports ranging from scuba diving, windsurfing
and kayaking to tennis, golf and the company's famous flying trapeze
classes. Each Breezes also has an a la carte Blue Mahoe Spa,
featuring the signature Island Coffee Mint Glo, Bamboo massage and
Tropical Fruit Facial.
Breezes Resort &
Spa Panama, the brand’s
newest
Super-Inclusive hotel, makes sure guests get out and about. Excursions
vary
from a look at tankers and cruise ships traversing the famous Panama Canal, to a day exploring
historic and lively Panama City, two hours away. In the
surrounding Cocle region, don’t miss those strange square trees in Anton Valley, or a horseback ride along
scenic trails. On premises, guests enjoy sailing, kayaking and other
watersport
diversions, along with tennis or a relaxing spa treatment. Now through August
20, 2010, all this is
yours from $290 per person Super-inclusive,
and every third night is
free.
SuperClub Resorts have
become very popular for two types of travelers: weddings and groups
(from corporate to girls getaways and family reunions). Nuptials are
free with a minimum 3-night stay, and government fees are absorbed as
well if the couple stays 7 nights.
