Yes, you could be right. Other A/Is on the island have generally been pretty low class. This one might succeed, because of the quality of the resort.

That's pretty normal for upscale a/i's. Full maid service in the morning, and then turndown service at night.

The ariticle states opening Feb 1, 2020.....is that a pipe dream, as from what I can gather or have read, nothing much is happening at this point? I also agree that a high end A.I. should do well, but pricing is an issue. As I stated in a previous post...I was offered an exchange into this new resort for Jan 28-Feb 4 through RCI,,,but a.I. was mandatory, which personally I did not want. The cost was to be 248.00 per person per day for the A.I. charge. That was a no brainer for me,,,not interested. But for some that may be reasonable?
I called RCI and told them, that from what I had found out,,,this resort wasn't even going to be open Jan 28,2019.....they were unaware??!!
Nevertheless, I do hope, when opened they will be successful, with options for travellers to opt out or partially opt out of A.I. costs. That would be the way to go, especially on SXM.

I can't imagine going to SXM and not dining at all of our favorite restaurants, and reconnecting with the owners of those establishments.

Secrets is NOT cheap, so those who stay there do have the funds to be able to go out to eat, even though they are doing a/I. I think it is possible that Secrets may introduce some people to SXM who haven't been there before.. So that is a good thing.
