Ramada Opening ‘Fantastic’
DIRECTOR: BOOKINGS ARE COMING IN STRONG AND THE OCCUPANCY RATE PRESENTLY EXPERIENCED IS GREAT
Fantastic, was how Matt Holmes, Director Development South Pacific for Wyndham Hotels and Resorts Incorporated, described the opening of the Ramada Suites.
They were opened by Wyndham Wailoaloa Beach Fiji in Nadi last night. “The product is amazing for our brand, Ramada and we are very excited to be here.”
Mr Holmes said this was the first Ramada brand in Fiji.
“Mark and Janice (Hinton) have done a fantastic job.”
He said bookings were coming in strong and the occupancy rate presently experienced was great.
“It’s really strong and staggers me even to see the rate.” “Bookings are going well and we have guests from all over the world.”
Mark Hinton, the property owner and Director said the hotel took three and a half years to build. “It has been a long time in the making and has been good in a lot of ways where we had time to get things right,” Mr Hinton said. “We actually opened mid-June and have been operating since then.” “We have some great reviews from customers on our rooms and service so that is fantastic.”
“We look forward to the new year.” Tourism Fiji chief executive officer Matthew Stoeckel congratulated Mr Hinton, Mr Hinton’s wife and the team at Ramada.
“It’s a fantastic development and will activate the Wailoaloa precinct.
“Tourism Fiji is very supportive of the vision and commitment to develop such a fantastic product in Fiji.
“We are really optimistic of the potential of the property and are looking forward to Wyndham to put more heads on beds in Fiji,” Mr Stoeckel said.
