Bahia Principe Luxury Runaway Bay will reopen April 1.

During the hotel’s closure, several renovations have taken place …

• Extension of the lobby terrace, as well as improvements and redecoration of the lobby bar.
• Completely refurbished restaurants: Main buffet Jazmín; Picasso restaurant (Mediterranean cuisine) and Thali restaurant (Indian cuisine).

Meanwhile the Bahia Principe Grand Jamaica is undergoing a comprehensive refurbishment and will reopen its doors on Dec. 1, offering updated facilities and enhanced experience for guests.
