“In the beginning it was never planned as a
hotel,” said Angela Torille, Senior Market-
ing Manager at The Landings. “It was meant
to be a set of holiday villas and condos that
travelers could have for their use when they
came to the island.”
After realizing that the property featured every
amenity a luxury hotel should have, the devel-
oper seized the opportunity to turn it into a
hotel. Upon speaking with the initial owners,
who themselves wanted another option since
they weren’t going to be on the island full-time,
an agreement was made and the hotel opened
its doors inDecember 2007.
GUEST IS KING
Eight years later, The Landings is now widely
regarded as one of the most opulent settings
ideal for the affluent traveler. But while the
amenities and location are upscale, the core
values and principles are the foundation of
the hospitality industry: it’s all about the
guest experience.
“The guest is King,” said Torille. “Our rates
are within the luxury market and we aim to
provide every guest with high end services.
Our focus is providing an elegant, five-star
service in a Caribbean setting.”
