St Maarten resort launches special promotion on heels of new US tax incentive
Convention groups enjoy $200 airfare refund per room at the Sonesta Maho Beach Resort & Casino
St Maarten, Netherlands Antilles (April 26, 2007) – St Maarten’s premier convention site, Sonesta Maho Beach Resort & Casino, is making group events better than ever! The resort will now offer a $200 per room credit upon check-out with the In Your Pocket promotion. US companies will also enjoy a new tax incentive.
The In Your Pocket offer was designed to defray airfare costs to one of the Caribbean’s most impressive, exciting convention destinations. This joins the recent announcement from the United States and Netherlands Antilles: for meetings held in St Maarten, US companies now receive the same tax benefits as those held in the states.
“Not only does Sonesta Maho offer impressive facilities – white-sand beaches, warm climate and even hotter nightlife – for groups, it pays you back with a $200 credit!” said director of sales and marketing, Brice O’Keefe. “And now that US companies can claim a tax benefit for holding a meeting in St Maarten, it’s never been easier to bring your event to the island!”
Sonesta Maho’s In Your Pocket offer is valid for travel from May 1, 2007 to December 1, 2008. Bookings must be made between May 1 and June 30, 2007. Group rates start at $180 per room per night based on double occupancy for blocks of 10 or more rooms. A five-night minimum stay is required. Existing bookings are not applicable and black-out dates do apply.
The Sonesta Maho Beach Resort & Casino offers nearly every ingredient for a truly memorable Caribbean convention experience. Groups enjoy 16,038 square feet of meeting space, an 11,000 square foot theater and seven additional unique settings for receptions and dinners. For after-work hours, the Maho Village features more than 26 shops, three restaurants, dance club, stand-alone casino and showroom.
The 10-acre, 537-room beachfront property is located on Dutch St Maarten’s southwest shore and is a destination within a destination, offering exciting nightlife and a variety of accommodations and first-rate amenities, including two outdoor pools and beach, four tennis courts, the world-class Good Life Spa and fitness centre.
