Sandals Resorts International (SRI), parent company of Sandals Resorts, Beaches Resorts and Grand Pineapple Beach Resorts, recently announced the sale of Grand Pineapple Antigua to Elite Island Resorts effective May 30.

The 180-room resort, located at Long Bay, Antigua, will continue accepting bookings and will remain open as it seamlessly transitions to a new name and brand, Pineapple Beach Club, on June 1 under Elite Island Resorts’ ownership. 
 

According to the agreement with Elite Island Resorts, all resort staff members will remain in place under the new management team.  

“We are very satisfied that our staff and loyal customers will be properly taken care of under the stewardship of Elite’s Chairman, Mr. Rob Barrett,” said Gordon “Butch” Stewart, chairman of Sandals Resorts International, in a written release. 

Guests with bookings made for arrivals to Grand Pineapple Antigua after May 30 will be fully protected at the agreed upon rates by Elite Island Resorts and its sales team. Grand Pineapple Negril remains a part of the SRI collection of resorts and will not be impacted by the confirmed sale.
