AMResorts has opened its first hotel in the US Virgin Islands.
The company has announced the debut of Dreams Sugar Bay St Thomas, the Caribbean’s newest all-inclusive resort.
The property represents the transformation of the former Sugar Bay resort in St Thomas; it is parent company AMResorts’ first resort in the United States and 36th overall.
Andreas Meinhold is the general manager of the 297-room property, which is located on the northeastern end of St Thomas.
The resort includes seven a la carte dining options and restaurants, three bars and lounges and a Dreams Spa by Pevonia.
“Sixty four percent of Americans do not own a US passport, which made St. Thomas a particularly desirable option for AMResorts’ Dreams Resorts & Spas brand,” said AMResorts President Gonzalo del Peon. “We look forward to continuing to make our award-winning Unlimited-Luxury vacation concept available to more guests in more places.”
Celebrity chef and Haiti native Ron Duprat is the property’s executive chef.
