Sandyport Beaches Resort was amongst a group of destination resorts showcased by the Ministry of Tourism recently when 100 top producing Travel agents from across North America visited as part of the Ministries ongoing programme to promote Bahamian tourism.
The travel agents who were selected for booking the highest numbers of tourists to The Bahamas, enjoyed an eventful three days visiting all the hotels they book for their clients. The packed itinerary included fun time at the Bahamas Junkanoo Carnival and evening dinner parties.
Sandyport Beaches Resort proved a particular favourite for many who had not visited before. Currently rated #2 on TripAdvisor it was therefore a significant stop for the important tourism business partners who viewed the full spectre of visitor accommodations - including boutique hotels, mega-resorts, all-inclusive hotels, and brand chains.
“It was wonderful to see the travel agents pick up on exactly what we try to offer, which is the relaxing tranquillity and island feel most people associate with the family islands,” said Resort President Rowena Jones. “What we are offering is relatively unique amongst Nassau hotels.”
General Manager Vernon Moss said, “We were really pleased to hear the travel agents say that the Sandyport Beaches Resort could fill a need for their clients, particularly their European clients. We were told that The Bahamas, especially Nassau, is gaining a reputation for luxury and all-inclusive resorts. Travel agents have more success if they have a wider choice for their clients and our resort is midrange in price while still offering the comfort, beauty and atmosphere they want in an island vacation.”
