Rosewood Announces Expansion in the Caribbean

Rosewood Hotels & Resorts has announced Exuma, an archipelago of 365 islands in the Bahamas, as the latest addition to the brand’s Caribbean portfolio with the announcement of Rosewood Exuma, a private island experience that will blend ultra-luxury and adventure travel. The new hotel is being developed in partnership with Yntegra Group, a Miami-based private investment company.

Situated on a 124-acre private island referred to as East Sampson Cay within the Exumas, Rosewood Exuma will comprise just 33 suites, all offering views of the island’s pink and white sands and the ocean. Visitors can enjoy a range of amenities, including six food and beverage outlets, which will showcase local delicacies and ingredients grown from the resort’s organic garden. Rosewood’s signature Asaya concept will immerse guests in Bahamian wellness traditions. The 20,000-square-foot spa will comprise six treatment rooms, a hydrotherapy facility, an outdoor tranquil pool and a fitness center. It will be complemented by an outdoor sports center with tennis, padel and pickleball courts, as well as watersports equipment. 

Rosewood Exuma will be home to a fully serviced beach club with a grill restaurant, beach and pool bars, and a private dining room. Two marinas with slips are planned to accommodate yachts up to 150 feet, encouraging those traveling around the nearby islands to enjoy Rosewood Exuma’s beach club and various restaurants and bars. In addition to the beach club pool, the resort will offer two other pools exclusively for overnight guests, including one dedicated to families. Young guests will also be invited to immerse themselves at Rosewood Explorers, the brand’s signature children’s club concept where activities are said to be designed to spark discovery, inspire imagination and foster social responsibility.

Rosewood and Yntegra will prioritize sustainable building practices throughout the development of Rosewood Exuma. On the island, just 25 percent of the 124 acres will be developed, and initiatives such as solar-powered energy sources will be implemented with the aim of minimizing impact to the island. The resort will be designed to blend into the natural island landscapes, not only to preserve the beauty of the Exumas but to ensure a legacy of responsible and conscious development for future generations to enjoy.
