Author: Just spoke to a PR contact overlooking the future Marriott property in the Maldives. Here’s what I found out:
- Will not be a Renaissance hotel, but a JW Marriott instead (will it still bear the name Gaakoshibee?)
- Scheduled opening is now third quarter of 2010 (but it’s safe to assume it will probably be pushed back, unless Marriott is truly up to speed to get it ready for the Winter 2010 season)
- No category mention yet (I’m going to guess 7 or 8 since it is the Maldives, people!)
I spoke to another rep who also mentioned that a Ritz-Carlton property is also being planned in the Maldives. No dates mentioned.
All sounds very enticing!
Have a nice clicK life,
