Sandals Resorts International is planning some significant enhancements to its Sandals Negril Beach Resort and Spa, the company announced.

The 64 rooms and suites of the resort’s Coconut Blocks are currently undergoing a “complete transformation,” to be completed by December 2015.

Guests of the butler and concierge level suites will be treated to new patios, coral stone floors, outdoor bathtubs and dining tables, the company said.

The butler suites are being redesigned into lofts with unique, modern floating staircases that connect the first and second level.

Both levels of suites will come equipped with new furniture, smart TVs, built-in bars and more.

All of the resort’s standards rooms will be expanded in size, and are also being refurbished with new furniture, smart TVs, soft foods and bathrooms.
