June 19, 2008 - Caribbean Sunset Wedding Ceremonies at Sandals

Sandals Resorts has unveiled Preston Bailey's new Sea Mist and Caribbean Sunset ceremonies, the latest additions to the Preston Bailey Signature WeddingMoons collection. Featuring both traditional white and crystal decor and non-traditional designs in pink and gold, the new lavish packages compliment the natural radiance of the Caribbean.

“The new Sea Mist and Caribbean Sunset collections are by far the most opulent floral presentations within the Preston Bailey Signature WeddingMoons collection,” the Sea Mist and Caribbean Sunset packages join three existing WeddingMoon collections designed by Preston Bailey exclusively for the Caribbean-based Luxury Included® Sandals Resorts including: Floral Elegance, Water Lily and Crystal Collections.

The Preston Bailey packages are offered as an enhancement to the standard WeddingMoon® program. They include inspired settings for ceremony, striking bouquets and flowers, elegant table décor and innovative keepsakes designed by Preston Bailey.

The Sea Mist Décor priced at US$6,000 will be available at all 12 Sandals Resorts in Jamaica, St. Lucia, Antigua and The Bahamas throughout the year and also includes a two-tiered wedding cake accented with roses and hydrangea hand-designed by New York wedding cake guru Sylvia Weinstock.

The Caribbean Sunset Collection priced at US$3,600 will also be available at all 12 Sandals Resorts in Jamaica, St. Lucia, Antigua and The Bahamas throughout the year, and only during the romantic sunset hour. The Caribbean Sunset Collection also includes a two-tiered wedding cake accented with roses and hydrangea hand-designed by New York wedding cake guru Sylvia Weinstock.

The Sea Mist and Caribbean Sunset design packages at Sandals Resorts are also available at the resorts' sister-brand, Beaches Resorts, for families with locations in Turks & Caicos and Jamaica.

May 27, 2008 - Jamaica’s Round Hill Hotel & Villas in Montego Bay has a hurricane policy

Jamaica’s Round Hill Hotel & Villas in Montego Bay has introduced a hurricane policy that will be in effect throughout the 2008 hurricane season that starts on June 1.

The policy was created to protect guests during a possible hurricane while the guest is registered at the resort. The guarantee will be in effect at the time the US National Weather Service announces the formation of a hurricane in the area. If the hurricane interrupts the use of all included services, Round Hill will offer a free replacement vacation.

This offer will be for the same duration as the original booking, regardless of the number of days which were affected by the hurricane. The category of rooms would be the same as booked and will be subject to space availability. The offer is valid for one year and does not include the airfare.

The offer is subject to change without notice. For further information or reservations, call 1-800-972-2159 or visit the web site at www.roundhilljamaica.com
