Pageant Beach Hotel Resort has Moved a Step Closer

Pageant Beach Hotel resort has moved a step closer after the developer finalized a US$25-million deal on Dec 7th.

The Howard Hospitality Group, which opened the Margaritaville resort earlier this year, has partnered with New Jersey-based Madison Hill Properties for the project.

Planning permission was granted in October and hopes to open a new luxury 5-star resort at the site in late 2020.

The resort will include 30,000 square feet of conference space, five pools, seven bars and restaurants, a private screening room, spa and gym, and approximately 400 guest rooms and suites.

The resort will eventually employ a permanent staff of around 500 people. (more…)
