HARBOUR ISLAND, Bahamas — Coral Sands Hotel, a well-known beachfront resort on Harbour Island, Bahamas, recently launched a transformation project under new ownership. A multi-phase restoration is underway, initially focusing on revitalizing guest rooms and public spaces. The hyper-local design aims to provide guests with a comfortable yet sophisticated experience, all while maintaining the charm that has made the resort a classic Caribbean destination since 1968.
Real estate and hospitality company AJ Capital Partners bought the Coral Sands resort earlier this year. Chorten Wangyel, a veteran of Harbour Island’s hospitality industry, is now general manager of the property, which is slated to reopen in December 2024.
The Bahamian resort offers an array of elegantly appointed spaces, including 24 guest rooms, six bungalows, eight cottages, three four-bedroom residences, and two award-winning restaurants, all located along the island’s Pink Sand Beach. A short walk from Dunmore Town, Coral Sands is a 20-minute flight from Nassau and a 50-minute flight from Miami.
“Coral Sands has been an integral part of Harbour Island’s rich history for over half a century,” said Ben Weprin, CEO of AJ Capital Partners. “We are dedicated to preserving the property’s unique character and charm, ensuring it remains an incredibly special and meaningful part of the island’s fabric for generations to come.”
Reservations for stays beginning in December 2024 are now open. For more information on Coral Sands and to book a reservation, visit coralsands.com.
