As of Nov. 30, Ocean Club on Paradise Island becomes The Ocean Club, A Four Seasons Resort, Bahamas. Opening in 1962, The Ocean Club is known for its five-mile beach, Versailles-inspired landscaping, dining from a Michelin-starred chef and top luxury amenities. The property is located near Nassau and was originally a private estate, before its conversion into a resort. It received expansive renovations as recently as 2014.
“The Ocean Club has long been one of the world’s great resorts and will be an extraordinary addition to our global portfolio as we extend our presence in the Caribbean,” says J. Allen Smith, president and CEO, Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts. “We are proud to work in partnership with Access to bring luxury travelers a Four Seasons experience in the Bahamas. The genuine warmth of the Bahamian people matches perfectly with the personalized service that only Four Seasons can deliver, creating a truly authentic Caribbean experience unlike anything else on Paradise Island.”
“Four Seasons shares our vision for a truly personalized luxury experience, with special sensitivity to the unique aspects of historic properties,” says Jonah Sonnenborn, head, real estate, Access Industries, which owns Grand-Hôtel du Cap-Ferrat, A Four Seasons Hotel, and other premier hotel properties. “The Ocean Club, like Access’ other iconic hotels, offers its guests an unparalleled location and boundless possibility for their experience at the resort. When we acquired it in 2014, we saw a wonderful opportunity to build on its rich legacy while looking ahead to its future. Following the success of our partnership in the south of France, Four Seasons was the natural choice to help elevate The Ocean Club to even greater renown.”
Four Seasons is planning several enhancements to the property, though it will retain The Ocean Club’s historic glamour.
