Time for an Expansion Update! 

Construction of Rooms 6 & 7

 

It has been a few months since we gave an update on how our expansion is progressing.  The COVID-19 pandemic did slow the construction works down some.  However, our crew is working and it is all beginning to take shape.  The bulk of noisy and dusty work is just about done.

Room Expansion update. Walls

The Walls are Up

 

 

 

 

 

We have walls!  You can now see that our (soon to be) two new Superior XL Rooms coming together nicely.  We are now able to distinguish between the two rooms and their interior spaces.  With the bathroom walls in place, we are preparing to start the next phases of this project: tiling, fittings.  Soon we will be painting and putting in furnishings.  We can’t wait for the day when these rooms will be ready to welcome guests.

 

 

Looking out to The Cabrits from the Balconies

 

The views will be splendid!  We are not sacrificing any of the signature Hotel the Champs views with this expansion.  From their balconies, guests will still have uninterrupted views of the Cabrits as well as the Caribbean Sea and the community of Picard.

Our new Superior XL Rooms (Room 6 and Room 7) are on the middle level, and as with our existing Superior XL Room will comfortably accommodate up to 4 individuals with the different bed configurations.  Our Superior XL Room has the option of a King bed or two Twin XL beds as well a Queen sofa bed, making it ideal for groups or family trips.

Pardon our Mess – Hotel the Champs is Growing

Pardon our Mess – Hotel the Champs is Growing

by | Dec 8, 2019 | Construction, Hotel, Pool, Tour Operators

If you visit today, everything may not be in its expected place and we apologize for any mess.

Following the passage of Hurricane Maria in 2017, Hotel the Champs needed to regroup, so we created a plan to come back better (and bigger).  We relocated the restaurant and bar and rebuilt our jacuzzi and pool deck.  These changes left us with open spaces and a new vision for the future of The Champs was born.

The Champs Green Makeover: The Green Resilience Project

 

Future Location of Rooms #6 & #7

Earlier in 2019, as part of our “green makeover”, we installed our solar panels and work began on reinforcing the foundations where the jacuzzi and bar were previously.

We intend to add two new Superior XL rooms on the middle level and build an extended stay apartment at the roadside level.  The Superior XL rooms should be completed by Winter 2020.

Currently, we have halted all construction work through the 2019/20 high season to ensure there is no discomfort for our guests. And rest assured nothing affects our five-star rated customer service.

 

Finishing the details for the Poolside Bar

A new addition that guests will get to experience this season at the renovated pool deck is a mini poolside bar, which will be stocked with beers, sodas, and other canned or bottled beverages to enjoy while lounging at the pool.

 

 

 

 

 

We continue to welcome our guests and look forward to offering that signature Champs service to larger groups when these new rooms open in 2020.
