After being closed for over two years following its destruction by Hurricane Maria, the Rosalie Bay Eco Resort and Spa is now reopened for business.<\/p>\n

The 28-room Eco-enterprise was officially reopened on Saturday.<\/p>\n

General Manager of Rosalie Bay, Avril Copiel said at the resort\u2019s opening ceremony that fifty-two persons have been permanently employed at the spa.<\/p>\n

\u201cIn December and January, we did our staff hiring process and currently we have fifty-two permanent persons on staff in various departments of front desk, food and beverage, vents, spa, housekeeping, maintenance, land landscaping and administration,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

She said there are also several casual workers seeking to bring the landscaping back to its original state.<\/p>\n

Copiel said the vast majority of their staff resides in the surrounding villages such as of Grand Fond, Morne Jaune and La Plaine.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cWe were very happy to welcome back several persons who were previously employed at the property \u2026all our staff comes with motivation to get the resort back into efficient operation and to provide a high level of customer service,\u201d Coipel said.<\/p>\n

She further stated that the resort will focus on continuous training and guidance to ensure that they deliver the quality and consistency of service.<\/p>\n

Meantime, Tourism Minister Denise Charles reminded Dominicans to embrace all resorts around the island by protecting the environment.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have to practice proper garbage disposal, we cannot have derelict vehicles surrounding our resorts and on the way to the resorts, people are seeing\u00a0 improper disposal of garbage all around,\u201d she noted<\/p>\n

Charles added that Dominicans need to ensure that the country remains one of the safest places to visit so it is important that the persons, especially those who reside in the Morne Jaune constituency protect this resort.<\/p>\n

In 2016, editors of the prestigious Cond\u00e9 Nast Traveler named Rosalie Bay one of their Favorite Hotels in the World.<\/p>\n

Rosalie Bay was also recognized as one of only nine properties in the world on the magazine\u2019s Far-Flung Hotels & Resorts Worth the Trip: Gold List 2016.<\/p>\n
