TORONTO — Sunwing Travel Group is celebrating the early reopening of two Blue Diamond Resorts properties in Saint Lucia.

In accordance with the Centers for Disease Control, the World Health Organization and the Saint Lucia Ministry of Health, both the Royalton Saint Lucia and Hideaway at Royalton Saint Lucia have reopened their doors earlier than planned and welcomed their first guests back to the island.

Along with those arriving on TUI Airways’ first flight back to the region, guests received a warm welcome at reopening celebrations featuring gourmet food and drink, morning-to-night entertainment and workshops that both parents and kids enjoyed.

Staff conducted the highest degree of health and safety vigilance as part of ‘Safety-Assured Vacations’ protocols. Plus, travellers who book directly via the Blue Diamond Resorts website automatically qualify for All-In Medical Assistance, provided by MAS Servicios, which covers expenses for accidents or illnesses incurred while on vacation, including COVID-19-related medical needs. Viral antigen testing is also available to guests arriving in Saint Lucia, on property, at an extra cost.

“Our teams in Saint Lucia worked tirelessly to ensure we were ready to reopen our doors ahead of schedule,” said Anderson Howard, Regional Director, Eastern Caribbean of Blue Diamond Hotels & Resorts. “We are all very excited to have our guests return to Saint Lucia and our properties with confidence and peace of mind. We are here at your service and look forward to seeing everyone soon!”
