New Owner Demonstrates Perseverance To Open Resort.
Simpson Bay:--- On behalf of the 12,000 members who hold timeshares at Simpson Bay Resort & Marina and The Villas at Simpson Bay Resort, management company Royal Resorts is pleased to announce the official opening date of March 12, 2011.
Timeshare members, exchangers, renters, and guests will be allowed to check in beginning Saturday, March 12, 2011 and will find the resort fully operational. All of the 425 units will be open and all amenities will be available and fully functioning.
Management expressed its deepest appreciation for the patience and support of the thousands of timeshare members who call St. Maarten their "home away from home." Special thanks also goes to the government of St. Maarten, the government's mediators Mr. Boasman and Mr. Plantijn, The St. Maarten Timeshare Association (SMTA), American Resort Developers Association (ARDA), and the international exchange companies Interval International and RCI
While the new owner of Simpson Bay Resort & Marina & The Villas at Simpson Bay encountered many unavoidable delays in its negotiations with the workers union, WIFOL – whose demands were difficult to meet without compromising the long-term viability of the resort – the new owner persevered in its desire to open the resort.
The new resort owner will continue to work with all the parties to find permanent solutions that will allow it to sustainably operate the resort in a financially viable manner.
