Daily Herald linkTax holidays I guess would be totally up the SXM government, but anyone think that the World Bank would approve loaning Spadaro money?

They already had plans to demolish and rebuild BEFORE Irma. So obviously they had funding already. The people of St Maarten can not afford to fund this crap. They can't even put roofs on houses one year on.

As I said, he may get some tax holidays, but I doubt he will get any money from Holland, as the World Bank has to approve the use of those funds.

This mentioned Sonesta and Great Bay Hotel specifically, I thought Spadaro sold those properties. It was my understanding that he now owns both RI properties, most of the shops and parking garages there minus Cheri's but not Sonesta or Great Bay.
I prefer the Isle seat

Todd-I knew he sold Great Bay, but thought he still owned Sonesta. I could be wrong.

I am apparently very confused. I thought Maho Bay was actually Sonesta Maho Bay and Great Bay Hotel was actually Sonesta Great Bay and Spadaro sold off Sonesta Great Bay. Am I mistaken?

Ocean Point it the fancy piece out on the point. The bigger complex is Sonesta Maho. Have no idea who owns what, but I think Maho at least is still Spadaro.

Thank you. I thought I had read that somewhere. As I recall, Sunwing had big plans for Sonesta Great Bay and that was long before that b itch, Irma hit. I can’t imagine any good reason why this commercial venture should now receive World Bank financing, and particularly since there are so many islanders still living with post Irma ‘Island issues’ but what do I know?!

I believe the Great Bay complex was sold to Sunwing as that is where all the Sunwing vacationers stayed previously. The others remain with the original owner.
