Cruise guests visiting Grand Bahama will soon have a new place to hang out.
This month, Concord Wilshire Capital purchased Grand Lucayan Resort—Grand Bahama's largest resort property—for $120 million, reports Travel Weekly.
Now, the Miami-based developer plans to spend $827 million to redevelop more than half of the resort’s 56-acre beachfront to cater to cruise passengers.
The project is expected to be finished in early 2028 and will feature a waterpark and beach area with live music for cruise guests, as well as a 350-room hotel, a 25,000-square-foot casino and golf course.
The neighboring Port Lucaya Marketplace will also be integrated into the property.
It’s designed to accommodate guests of all cruise lines as an optional shore excursion, but will also be open to anyone willing to pay the access fee.
The company’s leaders are consulting with cruise lines to understand what amenities and options their guests might enjoy at Grand Lucayan.
