NASSAU, The Bahamas
Renovations have begun at Meliá Nassau Beach, a Meliá Hotels International resort, with phase one of the $19 million renovation plan, expected to be complete by November 2014.
The resort, located on Nassau's Cable Beach, will remain open throughout the redesign, with minimal interruptions to the guest experience. Renovations throughout the entire Meliá Nassau Beach property are expected to be complete by early 2016.
Once the first phase of the redesign is complete, the Meliá Nassau Beach will boast 694 luxury guest rooms offering modern décor and a private patio or balcony.
New Level Lounge and Other Dining Options
In addition, the hotel will introduce guests to THE LEVEL, a signature service by Meliá Hotels & Resorts offering exclusive experiences, select room categories, a private pool and beach area, a separate check-in area in THE LEVEL Lounge, located upstairs from the main lobby, and preferred reservations for à la carte restaurants and other activities.
THE LEVEL Lounge will offer guests daily continental breakfast, newspapers, coffee and tea service, premium beverages, cocktails and hors d'oeuvres served throughout the day. THE LEVEL guests can indulge in Energy for Life activities like Body Balance - a mix of yoga and Tai Chi, or the Experiences Menu, which includes special workshops, dinners on the beach, romantic private breakfasts and in-room dining experiences.
